Walking in Supernatural Provision: Lessons from Garry Nesbit

When Money Runs Out, Faith Kicks In: Garry Nesbit's Keys to Provision

As a believer and content creator, I've been receiving numerous messages from people struggling with provision in their ministries and personal lives. Many are working hard, trying to serve God, but feeling discouraged by the lack of financial breakthrough. In response to these concerns, I felt led to reach out to my friend Garry Nesbit, a man who has experienced remarkable supernatural provision in his life and ministry. In this blog post, I'll share the insights from our conversation and offer encouragement to those seeking God's provision in challenging times.

The Foundation of Supernatural Provision

Garry emphasized that the key to experiencing God's provision is rooting ourselves firmly in His Word. As he shared, "We just need to understand and know that as children of God, if we abide under the shadow of the Almighty, He still has the promise in God's word. God has promised us to take care of us in hard times, lean times, rich times - it doesn't make any difference. God's provision is still the same."

This reminder is crucial. In a world where economic uncertainty looms large, we must anchor ourselves in the unchanging promises of God. As believers, we're called to live by faith, not by sight. This means trusting in God's provision even when circumstances seem dire.

Practical Steps to Walking in Supernatural Provision

1. Know and Declare God's Word

Garry stressed the importance of knowing Scripture and declaring it over our lives. He shared, "We have to understand exactly what God's word says about us when it comes to finances and about money." He referenced Luke 6:38, which promises that when we give, it will be given back to us in good measure, pressed down, shaken together, and running over.

2. Be Sensitive to the Holy Spirit

One of the key takeaways from our conversation was the importance of being sensitive to the Holy Spirit's leading. Garry shared how he follows the Spirit's prompts in his daily life, whether in his business or in evangelism. This sensitivity often leads to divine appointments and unexpected blessings.

3. Step Out in Faith

Garry shared a powerful story of how he approached a group of men drinking outside a bar, despite his flesh wanting to avoid the situation. By obeying the Spirit's prompting, he was able to share the gospel and pray for healing, seeing God move powerfully. This willingness to step out in faith, even when it's uncomfortable, often precedes supernatural provision.

4. Practice Generosity

A critical aspect of walking in supernatural provision is cultivating a generous heart. Garry emphasized the importance of tithing and giving, sharing how his own disobedience in this area once brought a curse upon his finances. When he repented and recommitted to tithing, he saw God move miraculously in his life.

5. Live in Holiness and Purity

Garry highlighted the connection between holy living and God's provision. He referenced the promise God gave to the Israelites: "If you put me first and if you worship me, I will bless your bread and your water and I'll take sickness away from the midst of you." While we're under a new covenant, the principle remains - our lifestyle matters to God.

Preparing for Challenging Times

As we discussed the current economic climate, Garry emphasized the importance of hiding God's Word in our hearts. He posed a challenging question: If Bibles were suddenly outlawed, how many scriptures could we recall from memory? This serves as a sobering reminder to internalize God's Word, ensuring we have a firm foundation when trials come.

Personal Reflections

Listening to Garry's experiences and insights reminded me of the importance of walking closely with God daily. It's not about chasing after material blessings, but about seeking first His kingdom and righteousness. When we do this, He promises to add all these things unto us (Matthew 6:33).

I've seen this principle at work in my own life and ministry. There have been times when provision came from the most unexpected sources, often when I was simply focused on being obedient to God's leading. These experiences have strengthened my faith and taught me to trust God even in lean times.

Biblical References and Teachings

Throughout our conversation, Garry referenced several key scriptures that underscore the principles of supernatural provision:

1. Luke 6:38 - The principle of giving and receiving

2. James 2:15-16 - The importance of practical faith

3. Galatians 6:2 - Bearing one another's burdens

4. Proverbs 10:22 - "The blessing of the Lord makes rich, and He adds no sorrow with it"

These scriptures remind us that God's economy often operates differently from the world's. As we align ourselves with His principles, we position ourselves to receive His supernatural provision.

As we navigate uncertain economic times, let's remember that our God is Jehovah Jireh - the Lord who provides. He hasn't changed, and His promises remain true. I encourage you to take the principles shared in this post and apply them to your life:

1. Immerse yourself in God's Word, memorizing scriptures about provision

2. Cultivate sensitivity to the Holy Spirit's leading

3. Step out in faith, even when it's uncomfortable

4. Practice generosity, even in lean times

5. Pursue holiness and purity in your daily walk

Remember, supernatural provision isn't just about meeting our needs - it's about equipping us to be a blessing to others and to advance God's kingdom.

Heaven's Echoes: A Powerful Ministry Changing Lives Through Music and Faith

Judy Biggers from Heaven's Echoes 

As I sat down to interview Judy Biggers from Heaven's Echoes, I knew I was in for something special. This southern gospel group isn't just about beautiful harmonies and uplifting melodies; they're on a mission to change lives through their music and ministry. Today, I want to share with you the incredible story of Heaven's Echoes and how they're making a difference both locally and internationally.

The Birth of a Ministry

Heaven's Echoes began in 1983 as a family group, singing in their local church in Plumerville, Arkansas. What started as special performances and revival meetings soon grew into something much bigger. As Judy explained, "About 12 years ago, the Lord really deepened our calling and broadened our horizons." They realized that their ministry wasn't just about music; it was about reaching out to hurting people and showing them the healing power of God's love.

This realization led them to expand their ministry beyond traditional church settings. They began to focus on testifying and seeing people come to know the Lord in various venues. Judy shared, "There are just a lot of hurting people in this world. We all walk around with a smile, Christians a lot of us, but there's always the hurt and the pain and the journeys that people have been through."

A Global Impact

What truly amazed me about Heaven's Echoes is their commitment to international ministry. They've partnered with Evangelistic International Ministries (EIM) to bring the gospel to places like Honduras and Ghana. Judy's eyes lit up as she recounted their experiences in Africa:

"We went into the bush... We had to meet a tribal chief just to get permission to go about his villages and testify. We saw almost 3,000 souls saved, and we were busy from daylight till dark. It was phenomenal; God just visited."

Their work with EIM also includes the Shepherd's Bags Ministry, providing essential items and the message of Jesus' love to children in need. It's a beautiful example of how small acts of kindness can open doors for the gospel.

Personal Testimonies of God's Faithfulness

What struck me most about my conversation with Judy was the personal testimonies she shared. These weren't just stories of stage performances and international trips; they were raw, honest accounts of how God has worked in their lives through both triumphs and tragedies.

Judy shared about her husband's heart attack at 51 and how God restored him to health and ministry. She spoke of her cousin Debbie's family struggles with illness and loss. And then, with a mixture of pain and hope in her voice, Judy told me about the loss of her 16-year-old daughter, Kayla Joe.

The story of Kayla Joe's passing was heart-wrenching, yet filled with the power of faith. Judy recounted how, even in their deepest grief, they witnessed God's presence in a miraculous way. "That brain-dead child upon that bed began to kick her feet," Judy said, "and she was kicking up dust headed to heaven, and she smiled at us."

This powerful testimony has since touched countless lives, even leading a 9-year-old girl to accept Christ after hearing Kayla Joe's story.

The Power of Surrender

Throughout our conversation, one theme kept emerging: the power of surrendering to God's will. Judy emphasized, "We have to get in His will, we have to seek His face, and know that it's Him doing it. Sometimes He doesn't break the chains exactly like we want them broke, but if we're in His will, then when He breaks the chain, we're ready to walk and go how He's done it."

This message of surrender and trust in God's plan is at the heart of Heaven's Echoes' ministry. It's not just about the music; it's about living out their faith in real, tangible ways.

New Music on the Horizon

Exciting news for fans of Heaven's Echoes: they've just finished recording a new album! Judy shared her enthusiasm about the project: "We pray so much for God to show us... it's been over a year and a half since we've had a new project. We've been praying that God would give us the songs that would minister to the people and bring honor to Him."

The passion in Judy's voice was palpable as she described the "revival in the studio" they experienced while recording. It's clear that this new album is more than just a collection of songs; it's a labor of love and faith.

In Closing

As our interview came to a close, I found myself deeply moved by the ministry of Heaven's Echoes. Their commitment to sharing God's love through music, personal testimonies, and international outreach is truly inspiring.

If you're looking for music that goes beyond entertainment to touch hearts and change lives, I encourage you to check out Heaven's Echoes. Visit their website at HeavensEchoes.net to listen to their music, read more about their ministry, and find out where you can see them live.

And if you're in the Senatobia, Mississippi area, don't miss the chance to see Heaven's Echoes perform live at Solid Rock Church on October 17th at 6:00 PM. It promises to be an evening of powerful music and life-changing ministry.

Remember, as Judy so beautifully put it, "We're created to give God glory, and it's all about God; it's nothing about us." Let's take that message to heart and seek ways to glorify God in our own lives.

Misty Hodges Interview - Gay Pride Outreach Tarrant County

Reaching the Unreachable: A Divine Encounter at Gay Pride

As I sat down for another edition of "Coffee with Conrad," I couldn't help but feel a sense of excitement. Today's guest was none other than Misty Hodges, a passionate street evangelist whose dedication to spreading the Gospel never ceases to amaze me. You might remember her from our previous interviews about the satanic black mass in Oklahoma City or her experiences in Washington D.C. during the Supreme Court hearings on gay marriage. Misty is truly on the front lines of faith, reaching out to those who might never set foot in a church.

Our conversation today centered around her recent experience evangelizing at the Tarrant County gay pride event. As always, Misty's unwavering commitment to sharing God's love shone through every word she spoke.

The Power of Persistence and Prayer

Misty began by describing how she and a team of about 25 people from various ministries attended the event. Armed with signs displaying Scripture and Gospel tracts, they set out to minister to the LGBTQ+ community and their supporters. What struck me most was the stark contrast between this year's experience and last year's.

"Last year, we faced a lot of harassment from the police," Misty explained. "They tried to prevent us from getting close to the event. We actually had to take them to court, and we won the lawsuit."

This victory paved the way for a completely different atmosphere this time around. The police not only allowed them to minister freely but even defended them when necessary. It's a powerful reminder of how standing firm in our faith and rights can open doors for the Gospel.

Divine Appointments in Unexpected Places

As Misty shared more about their interactions at the event, I was moved by the hunger for truth she encountered, especially among the youth. "At every point, we had around 25 to 30 people gathered around our speakers, listening for long periods," she said. "Towards the end, we had a group of teenagers, probably 16 to 20 years old, who were absolutely captivated by our message."

What these young people craved most, according to Misty, was a sense of purpose and destiny. In a world that often leaves them feeling confused and directionless, the message of God's love and plan for their lives resonated deeply. It's a poignant reminder that beneath the surface of pride events and rainbow flags, there are souls yearning for something more.

Addressing the Heart of the Matter

One of the most powerful aspects of Misty's ministry is her approach to addressing sensitive issues like homosexuality. She emphasized the importance of presenting the truth in love, acknowledging the reality of temptation while offering hope through Christ.

"We talk to them about how it is a sin that they can overcome, about resisting the devil, and how to put that into play as a Christian," Misty explained. "Some of them say they're Christian but don't know what to do because they're having these temptations."

Her words struck a chord with me. In our current cultural climate, where affirming every lifestyle choice is often seen as the only loving response, Misty's approach offers a much-needed balance of truth and grace.

Breaking Stereotypes: The Heart of a Street Preacher

As our conversation continued, we touched on a topic close to my heart: the often-misunderstood nature of street preaching. Media portrayals tend to focus on the most confrontational moments, painting street preachers as hateful or aggressive. Misty's experiences tell a different story.

"The people that I minister with, they tell the truth of what the Bible says," she clarified. "People don't like to be confronted with their sin, so they feel like we're being hateful when we're not. We're only addressing sin and offering the hope of salvation through Jesus."

Misty went on to describe the sacrifices these ministers make, funding their own trips and pouring out their hearts for people they may never see again. It's a powerful testament to the love that drives them – a love that compels them to speak truth, even when it's unpopular.

The Call to Action: Everyday Evangelism

As our interview drew to a close, I asked Misty about the passion that drives her ministry. Her response was both simple and profound: "I started asking the Lord to show me why people do what they do... When I started to see God's perspective of the lost and dying, this holy anger rose up inside of me."

This perspective shift led Misty to a realization that has fueled her ministry ever since: many of the people she encounters at these events will never step foot in a church. If we don't go to them, who will?

Her words challenge me – and I hope they challenge you, too. We don't all need to be street preachers, but we are all called to share the love of Christ. Misty offered some practical advice for those feeling the stirring to evangelize:

1. Look for existing groups in your area that are already doing outreach.

2. Start by pursuing daily divine appointments – be open to sharing your faith in everyday situations.

3. Don't let a lack of knowledge hold you back. Start with what you know, and grow from there.

4. Ask God to give you a heart for the lost and to show you opportunities to share His love.

A Prayer for the Called

We ended our time together with a powerful prayer. Misty asked God to stir the hearts of listeners, to give direction on where to go and who to minister to. She reminded us that the call to "go" isn't just for a select few – it's for all believers.

As I reflect on our conversation, I'm filled with a renewed sense of purpose and urgency. Yes, our culture seems to be sliding further from Biblical values. But as Misty so beautifully demonstrated, God can use willing hearts to make a profound impact.

I want to challenge you, dear reader: How can you step out in faith today? Whether it's striking up a conversation at your local coffee shop or supporting ministries like Misty's, we all have a role to play in sharing the transformative love of Christ.

Conrad
