BOTT 2010: Jeff Arnold Speaking

"God wants to make a sweep in the house while I speak. God wants to make the altar call while I'm speaking. If you can release your faith, God can heal while I am speaking"

"God spoke to me and said: 'If you can convince the people, I will confirm My word.'"

"You have got to become convinced that God holds true to His word."

"If we can be convinced of God's mindset, I will release such supernatural energy, it will chase every infirmity out of their body."

"How can you not have faith for a lesser miracle but for a greater miracle?"

BOTT 2010: Spirit of Unity

After the message, Brother Anthony Mangun told us to turn to a brother or a sister and pray strength over them to reach their goal of winning souls. The feeling of unity was seemingly tangible as men and women began to pray for one another. God is good!

BOTT 2010: Challenge

At the conclusion of his message, Brother Mitchell had ushers hand out cards. One for each person. Each card has the statement on the front:

"I will seek to invest in others who do not have a relationship with Jesus Christ and invite them to my church."

On the back are three spaces for names of three people that the cardholder will attempt to invest in and invite to their church. Also a pledge:

"I will pray daily for them, share my testimony with them, and invite them to my church."

Below that is a place to sign and date the card.

If every person in the room won those three people, 9,000 people would be added to the church.

We have been challenged to reach the lost! Even if you are not at BOTT 2010, you too can join this evangelistic effort to reach the lost!

BOTT 2010: Presence of the Almighty

The presence of Almighty is moving through the place as the praise team and choir lead us in worship. Such a powerful display of God's glory!

BOTT 2010: Song Service Thursday

Church just started with a hymn led by Madonna Massey. Her golden voice was carried on the wings of anointing as the words became alive and the congregation joined in singing.

"Oh how I love Him, how I adore Him. My breath, my sunshine, my All in All. The great Creator became my Savior. And all God's fullness dwelleth in Him."

Excellent start to the last night of BOTT 2010.

BOTT 2010: Jeff Arnold

Came 45 minutes sooner than last night and people are already lined up at the doors! People will do anything for a good seat. Anticipation and expectation levels are at an extreme high. Tonight is the last service of BOTT 2010 with Robbie Mitchell and Jeff Arnold preaching.
