Teaching - Is Jesus getting what He paid for in you?
After a mishap at a lunch place today, the Lord dropped this teaching on me to share. Take it in, pray about it, and start making the corrections needed.
The Lord working with me on my Lyft and Uber rides a few months back
I believe it was around October 2016 when I received a prayer cloth during Intercessory Prayer and was charged with using it. So I did as I was instructed soon after.
On one Uber ride in Oakland, Ca a woman from Africa named Ada came on board. After a brief talk she let me know she know she had surgery coming up for her knees. She didn't have any cartilage in both her knees, I knew this was the Lord letting me know to use the prayer cloth. We prayed and she was crying saying she was feeling the Holy Spirit healing her knees. The Lord prophesied further that she would not need the surgery and that it would a witness to the doctors of Jesus Christ. She was crying so much telling me how bad she needed this entire encounter and she blessed me to keep doing what I doing.
I went to pick up my next ride on International Blvd. The person never came out but I kept getting propositioned by the street walkers. I was pumped from the previous encounter so I felt the Holy Spirit telling me to minister to these ladies. I found two who grew up in church, one said her mom was a pastor. I ended up not making much visible impact at the time, but the last lady I talked to was thankful for my request to pray with her. I ended up traveling in the spirit back to these streets later when I followed up on the encounter in intercessory prayer - that was the first time the Lord manifested that tool in my prayer life.
A month later, the Lord had me approach another young lady participating in human trafficking. We prayed together and she was delivered of a few things. She was very enthusiastic at the end of the prayer and blessed me, she exclaimed she felt surrounded by angels at the end of the prayer. I had been around that area around that same time of the early morning later, and I never saw her out doing that again so I have faith the Lord delivered her.
A few days later, I prayed with a young man who grew up Catholic for headaches resulting from a malformed spinal disc and to receive Jesus in the spirit rather than through religion. He received it all, using the prayer cloth again. The miracles on the prayer cloth kept building.
One thing the Lord just dropped on me now as I write this, as you can see the Lord is working through people submitting to Him. If you are not one of them, you are receiving His Grace in vain. You have to be doing your part in this massive work of the entire Body, otherwise you are bearing no fruit and have a dead faith. Don't listen to the excuses - you are either alive or dead to God - no fruit to God means you are dead and need to repent to come alive.

The Lord's teaching on Purity, He gave me
The Lord gave me a teaching on Purity that I was able to publish as my first book. It walks you through the principles of living a Pure life through the Holy Spirit using biblical principles. This is needed today as immorality is being promoted as a standard of living. The approach is one of Love, one lives a Pure Life motivated by Love of God, self, then others. Satan's lie about carnality being Love is the a core issue being debunked in this book. Check it out and recommend this link to others on social networks, spread the needed teaching on Purity -
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01LYX2XJ4
Here's the group the Lord had me start in regard to this teaching, He's such a Genius - after I published the book He told me "now start a new sexual orientation group to go with the book - "Pure for the Lord Jesus Christ"

Lyft and Uber Testimonials of the Lord Jesus Christ 01/25/2017
The Lord is so smart, I had no idea that working for Uber and Lyft was part of my Evangelical calling and training but yes it has been.
I have progressively been witnessing to my passengers and learning how to witness for Christ in my ride shares over the past 3 years. Patience, loving enemies, and following laws has also been a big lesson in this job. The Lord in His Wisdom knows what He's doing for sure. Here's a few summaries of my last few rides.
Shana, a lovely sister and talented singer received prayer and is now on fire to sing for the Lord. The Lord prophesied over her that her voice will be anointed to deliver people as soon as the sound of it hits their ears, as David's harp playing cast out the unclean spirit that tormented Saul - 1 Samuel 16:23. Check out her website, bio, and sample music here - www.shanadinha.com
Lisa, I picked her up from the hospital in San Francisco she had a neck injury that required surgery. The Lord opened a door to share with her Christ's work in my life and she was saying that she was looking for a Pentecostal church recently. The Lord then directed me to pray for her with the anointed prayer cloth and oil in my glove compartment. She received healing and has continued to receive it while maintaining contact with me. She increases in Scripture reading and prayer everyday.
The Lord manifested an Angel to my Uber passenger and myself a couple of Saturdays ago. Then He allowed her to take a picture of the angel. The Lord ministered prayer and prophesy for 9 people that day through me, the angel manifested at 9 in the morning. Later that night, I went to show this photo to a young lady that had an unclean spirit of drunkenness and rebellion, she bolted out of the car and left the door open as I reached back to show her and her boyfriend this photo. This photo has an anointing on it. Here's the Pic -

Lakshmi, a young lady the Lord led me to in the mall working at a Jewelry place. We prayed and she accepted the Lord as Savior and Lord. We prayed for restoration, godliness in her relationship with her boyfriend and her baby.
Malicha, a young lady I gave a ride to work last Friday morning. She was so hungry for the Word and getting to know Christ - I was blessed to give her pamphlets and information to local Christian churches. Her mother was devoted to the Lord and the Lord made sure her daughter had an encounter to further her into living for the Lord.
Tyschel, a young lady that needed prayer in regard to her walk with God. She was being pulled at by worldly influences, the Lord strengthened her with prophesy in regard to the healing of her grandmother and prayer for a coworker in regard to employment.
Share the Love of Jesus, the Evangelist calling
I'm called to be an Evangelist for the Body of Christ. As part of the five fold ministry to the saints, I go out and find the saints when they're wandering around in the dark world as well as exhort other members of the Body to do the same.
There's no excuse not to share the love of Christ when it is so easy - send people to this website by giving them this URL.

Go there yourself, listen to the testimonies and music. If you are in anyway near to God I don't think there's a way to ignore what is said. It's a good site to promote the Gospel; also good for people falling away and being dragged into the lies of the world. Another category of people who need these testimonials are people who have been stuck in a church routine for too long. The dead works of false piety kills off compassion. Christ doesn't care about your Pharisaical Robes, how much you fast, how long you pray, or how you measure yourself to Him - beat your chest and beg God to have Mercy on you, that's a humble and contrite heart. Luke 18:9-14
Remember that no one can come to Christ unless the Father draw them John 6:44, the Father draws people who have a respect for righteousness and love. Your job is to get the information out to people at all times, you are spreading seed all the time. You don't repent for people or accept the Gospel for people, that's their choice. You spread seed and move forward as the person allows and seeks.
You need to love people all the time the way Christ loves, doing so brings people closer to the Truth. That's the point of being an Evangelist, to show the love of Christ at all times as an ambassador. You have to be an example of Christ by living Christ within you, when you have the opportunity to speak you do so. The strongest witness is handling any given situation like Christ would, because He taught you how personally - Acts 4:13.
