wanted me to rehearse the story that Bro. Charles talked about in Alexandria. It was where
Moses Aaron and Hur went up on the mountain while Joshua and the Israelites were fighting the Amalekite’s in Exodus 17. Leaders get tired, they need to lead from a setting position, they are not perfect, when they let their authority down the people are defeated and they need those around them to hold up their hand. (A practical person and a spiritual person) I had the Executive pastor and another to hold up John’s hands and prayed. After I
finished he came over and hugged my neck in an embracing way and said I needed that.
Several days later I received this note.
Dear Robert,
You don't know what your special way of praying for me Sunday morning meant to me. I was jet lagged and had been in real spiritual battle about this message. What you did felt like a real gift from God to me. In fact, you, yourself, are a real gift from God and so many others.
Love and appreciate you, brother.
John Avant Senior Pastor
