New Macedonia

Good afternoon Fbf! A HALLELUJAH PRAISE from our Sis. Cynthia Saunders just because God is Good all the Time!!!

I would like to share my experience from last night with everyone. Last night my Pastor, Overseer Valerie C.B Leonard preached at Society Hill Church located 1323 W. Susquehanna Ave. Phila, Pa 19122 and this church caters to those who are deaf by having multiple persons capable of performing sign language. While there I was reminded of Jeremiah 29:13 which basically states "When you seek the Lord with your whole heart, then you will find Him!" So many people who have all of their senses find any excuse not to seek, find, and stay grounded in the Lord, yet these beautiful people are determined to let nothing stop them! I was blessed last night because of this and just wanted to encourage everyone to seek the Lord while there is still time because there really is #NoExcuse! Enjoy your day everyone!! Overseer Valerie CB Leonard

Here's a bonus for you: Not only has Overseer Valerie CB Leonard been anointed to teach and preach the gospel, but in addition to her many gifts, she sings as well, which she has not completely done in 11 years! When God anoints and appoints you, there are no disappointments and no one can "un"-appoint you because there is no failure in God!

Yesterday, 6/11/17 our Pastor, Overseer Valerie CB Leonard preached from Luke 4:18-19. She expounded on how God has anointed her to not only teach and preach the gospel in order to help deliver and recover, but to heal also, both spiritually and naturally. When God anoints someone for His purpose as He has gifted our Pastor, one must decrease so that God can increase in our lives! We must deny ourselves (our flesh and carnal intellect & ways) and take up His cross according t...o Mark 8:30 and Luke 9:23. 2 Corinthians 5:17 says, "Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold old things are become new." In order to be a new creature we have to let the Holy Ghost abide in us! Pastor elaborated further by explaining to us if we take the "G" out of Holy-Ghost, we are left with the Holy-Host! A host is someone who entertains and occupies us from beginning until the end. Spiritually speaking, the Host is one who keeps us from committing transgressions against our Heavenly Father and our brothers & sisters down here on earth. The Host also keeps us sheltered in the time of storms! For these reasons, we are to crucify our flesh daily, let God host our earthly temples until He returns, and take up His cross! For if we do not follow after Him, we are not worthy of Him according to Matthew 10:38. We should all be striving to hear "Well done thy good and faithful servant!" Enjoy this brief clip....I pray that it encourages you and blesses you! See more

Good Morning Fbf! The Covenant of Hope! When people have a serious problem to solve, they usually evaluate the circumstances and then analyze their results. After that they devise a master plan, calculate the costs set up a schedule make sure that the required funds are available and employ the right people to carry out the task. When God has a problem to solve, He selects a single person, puts him or her in the right place and then say, "I need you to carry out a certain tas...k for Me.I will be with you and help you. Now go ahead." Noah was God's choice to restore humanity when the flood was over. Noah was also a witness for God. God entrusted Noah with these tasks and promised to work with him and through him. Noah therefore was the focal point of hope in the approaching disaster. Further on in our spiritual history, the focus would be Abraham, Joseph, Moses and finally, Jesus. There is no situation so desperate that God cannot bring new hope and a new beginning out of it. After Jesus was crucified, God restored Him to life and gave the world the new gospel of the Resurrection, of spiritual power and of hope. Today He is still the living Christ. In the twilight of a world threatened by terrorism, poverty, sickness and hunger, God is always busy doing a new thing somewhere, in some way, and through someone He has specifically chosen for each task. However bad your circumstances may seem, God is always busy looking for the opportunity to restore you and lead you into a new future and a deeper level of faith in Him. He made a covenant to do this. Let us firmly believe that He will do it our hope is founded upon Him.

Good evening fbf! Just sharing a lil bit of our Sunday morning service...This is what happens when the body of Christ comes together on one accord! It's like Pentecost every Sunday at New Macedonia - Strait Gate....."two visions working together to get the work of the Lord done!"

It is the middle of the week and by now the enemy has already tried his very best to come against you and deter you! If he hasn't already there's still more time left because he's always on his job which is why I saved this "audio" of this past Sunday's service for now! Our Father knows what his children need to hear and when we need to hear it! So he used his anointed and mighty vessel, Pastor Sheila M. Miller of Strait Gate Ministries Inc. to speak life over our ministry! S...he started out in Psalms 118 letting us know "The funeral has been cancelled!" The devil comes to steal, kill, and destroy, and because of who we (the righteous) are he's "attempted" to use his very best arsenal against us to devour us, but God said "NOT SO...those weapons won't even prosper!" Pastor Miller informed us that many people are envious of us because our gifts, our anointing, our will and grace to persevere even when the "heat" has been turned up on us! People are jealous of the way we carry ourselves, the way God blesses us and the very fact that we are CHOSEN! Those very people and even some we are UNAWARE of (watch as well as pray) are so jealous that they go to sleep with the righteous on their minds wondering why us! Pastor even went on to say that those enemies even hate you because of how you're loved, who you're loved by, and who you're connected to! It is because of these things that the enemy has set out to destroy you by praying against you, setting traps, and more that should have literally killed you, but THE FUNERAL HAS BEEN CANCELLED! Pastor also preached from Psalms 5:1-12 and Psalms 35:1-10 and God used her again to go back a few Sunday's ago and remind us of a word spoken through Overseer Valerie C.B Leonard that we're "On Timeout From The Devil" and then He spoke through Pastor Miller and told us "during this timeout JUSTICE WILL BE SERVED!" There won't be a prayer that can be prayed that will stop God from getting vengeance for His children or recover those who tried to come against us! Last, Pastor Miller said a prayer that covered our house! If you aren't serving under leaders who not only cast the net out to save themselves in troubled waters, but extend it to you also, then you're doing yourselves an injustice...PERIOD! We received two messages at one time and we're blessed because of that! We had a yelling, screaming, and shouting good time on this past Sunday and if you're one of the ones who need a little music to help you get those shackles off your feet so you can praise and dance then the last few minutes are for you! Enjoy and be blessed!!! Overseer Valerie CB Leonard Pastor Sheila M. Miller See more
