21- Day Consecration: Obedience to God (Day14)

Today, I am dealing with paperwork for my starting my church in San Francisco. Many times I go back and forth with God about this. This is a very demanding time to start a church. However, I don't question God anymore if I am the right one to do it or if I am going to the right city. Many years ago, God told me He would give me a message for the SF. He also told people that people are in the streets waiting for me. Well not for me but for the message He has given me. 

But the legal portion of starting a legitimate church in alignment with my organization guidelines and the state of California is taxing. Because really at the end of the day I must obey God. but in this world of religious freedoms being questioned by the government and same-sex marriages, and tolerance of sin being slapped on with a vengeance. I have to stay prayed up. I have to have my mind right. I can't move forward in fear that someone will target my church or ministry because of what the Devil has put into place. 

I feel most times I am alone, that no one can help me. But then at the same time I feel God leading me. There are some guidelines that I feel are necessary others I feel that are standing in the way of me moving forward. However, God is able to make a way out of no way and cause the hearts of men and women to change. So, I trust Him to do what is needed at the end of the day. All I can do is pray, seek his wisdom and move forward as He leads. 

I am actively looking for a permanent place to worship. So the Bible Studies and prayer meeting can be consistent. That the people God has assigned to New Life can find it and start to live the way God intended for them to live. So we all can be pleasing in His sight and obedient to His word.

Please pray for me as I continue to walk in the Spirit and not in my flesh. Obeying God, growing in favor with God and man.



You are Bound No More.

Meet The Host of Turning Your Past Into Purpose Retreat Cruise 2016: Pastor Linda Hillman

Linda A. Hillman is a faithful servant of the LORD.  Her credentials reads like a Who’s Who in the Bible—she’s been through the school of very hard knocks and has survived and thrived because of her trust in the LORD and her saturation and application of His Word.  Adversity has to take a back seat to Linda because, in her own words, “God can and will do, I am a living witness.”

As a ministry leader, Ms. Hillman’s resume includes but is not all inclusive:

*Founder and President of W.H.O.L.E. Ministries

*Founder and President of Living Above Hurt Ministries

*CEO/Master Coach of Destined 2 B U Empowerment Group

*Currently an Elder and Single Adult Pastor on the Pastoral Staff of Victory in Praise Church, located in Stockton, CA

*Hosts a weekly small group in her home

*Has implemented cell groups in different ministries

*Has worked in home mission churches for 5 years

Three other areas that make up her ministry niches are Evangelism, Christian Education and Music.  Her work as an evangelist is a tribute to her determination to serve God’s children.  She sings and preaches wherever the LORD sends her—she’s even travelled Europe, helping to save the lost and lift up the saved.  As an educator, under the direction of Bishop Rufus K. Turner, Ms. Hillman assists in the development of VIP Bible Institute.  But it’s her music that has brought her to the attention of Christian music lovers with her appearance in the McDonald GospelFest two years in a row. 

As in her favorite worship song, Welcome into This Place, Linda welcomes the call God has placed on her life to minister to His hurting people.  God has trusted Linda to establish His work in the world and she continues to “study and show herself approved” by pursuing a Master of Divinity in Theology.  Linda Hillman is certainly an exemplary example of loving, dedicated servanthood…and the world is a much better place because of the Spirit of God in her.
