Christopher, a fallen warrior for the Gospel, was deservingly honored by this event; as his life becomes a testimony that saves souls. I pray, that the Lord has poured out His merciful outreach in New York tonight.

We keep you all at Harvest in prayer as if holding up your arms to win the battle for souls; just as the children of Israel did for Moses in the battle against the Amalekites. We usually don’t think about the great possibility that during that battle although won, many of God’s children fell in the battle field. I sometimes imagine that as victory had been finally claimed against the Amalekites, there were some fathers, mothers, brothers, sisters and wives who experienced a bitter-sweet victory. They would live the rest of their days missing their loved one. God does want us to see the bigger picture, but He knows that the details of our walk in the meanwhile are everything but trouble free. However, let us be certain in our hearts that one day we will experience the ultimate victory, reunited at the feet of the Lord.

The Lord will wipe our tears from our eyes. No more sorrow or death. Topher will be there, Angelica (My young daughter who died in 2007) will be there and the countless of young and old warriors for the Lord will all be there; it will be ONLY sweet, as we bask in the Glory of the Lord.

Pastor Greg, we are in the middle of our story, but let us keep our eyes on this story’s end. We win plus we do it reunited.
