Institution of the Lord’s Supper
23 For I received from the Lord that which I also delivered to you: that the Lord Jesus on the same night in which He was betrayed took bread; 24 and when He had given thanks, He broke it and said, [a]“Take, eat; this is My body which is [b]broken for you; do this in remembrance of Me.” 25 In the same manner He also took the cup after supper, saying, “This cup is the new covenant in My blood. This do, as often as you drink it, in remembrance of Me.”

Good morning beloved of YESHUA CHRIST JESUS. After tears of (thank You Holy Father-GOD) this morning, after reading yesterday’s letter, I would like to thank my LORD-GOD for another huge warrior. Amen.
My LORD-GOD led me to Apostle James, my LORD was teaching me about the Sabbath, in my personal studies with Him, and through a young lady in my Bible class, led me to Apostle James, they met on Saturday’s. Amen.
Apostle James was the second Apostle my LORD placed me under, one was man ordained and one was my LORD ordained. Amen. Apostle James, placed me under Pastor Charles Hill Jr. It wouldn’t be long before I would realize that my LORD-GOD had placed me, for the second time as Deacon, this time, under another mighty man of GOD. Amen. The first time was for 17 years of discipleship under Pastor Butts. Amen.
Pastor Charles Hill Jr. would be the sixth mighty man of GOD, my LORD-GOD revealed to me and would use to change my life, for His honor, praise, and glory, and for my good. Amen. In the order my LORD placed them in my life: Sterling Shephard Sr. (my grandfather); Huse Beach Sr.; Pastor Dennis Butts; Pastor Charles Hill Jr.; Pastor Anthony Shephard Sr.; Rabbi Jim Pickens. Amen.
Pastor texted baby and I last evening pictures of the new church building Father-GOD has blessed him with. It was exciting as it’s the first “church building” Father provided for Pastor Hill Jr. Pastor has been faithful in the ministry our LORD-GOD has blessed him with, in several different venues, but not in an actual church building. I stress that because wherever Pastor Hill Jr. is, it’s church. Amen. He is not limited to the building; he is a mighty man of GOD. Amen.
I am much thankful for the opportunity to serve Pastor Charles Hill Jr. Amen.
I am much thankful that my LORD-GOD has blessed me with these six mighty men of GOD. Amen. My LORD-GOD blessed me and my Queen to assist Pastor Charles Hill Jr. Amen. When baby first came to service, which was on Sunday evening, she met the two ladies in the kitchen that provided dinner and she clicked with them immediately. I mean baby went in, put her purse down, was introduced to these ladies and was immediately part of the dinner ministry team. Amen.
Father-GOD blessed us both to be an integral part of his ministry and it was awesome. Amen. Actually, when Father-GOD revealed to us that He was moving us to Florida, it was terribly hard. Never had either one of us been such integral parts of a ministry, with such a man of GOD, as Pastor Charles Hill Jr. (he’s one year older than I) along with the deep friendships our LORD blessed us with in the ministry He blessed Pastor with. It was a many, many tears shed with the move. Baby and I have not experienced such close relationships since.
It was truly a blessing for my Queen and I to be in service to our Holy Father-GOD through such a man of GOD, as Pastor Charles Hill Jr. Amen.
I am thankful to my LORD for Rabbi Jim Pickens at Beth Yeshua ministry my LORD-GOD blessed us with, as He taught me about our Jewish roots of our Savior and LORD-YESHUA CHRIST JESUS. Amen. Though my LORD-GOD did bless me with the ministry of little Deacon to Rabbi Pickens, he had a few Deacons who had been with him for many years, it was exciting to be with another mighty man of GOD. Amen. Though I was not blessed to be Rabbi’s Deacon, it was exciting as he had a kitchen ministry staff also and provided Saturday dinner after service. It was exciting. Baby and I were not intertwined as we were with Pastor Charles Hill Jr. though it was still a beautiful experience under a mighty man of GOD, Rabbi Jim Pickens. Amen.
Beloved, Rabbi Jim Pickens was created Caucasian by my LORD-GOD, though he had the most diverse congregation of any service I had ever been in, there was more color in his Synagogue than in most double rainbows after a good rain. Amen. It was awesome. Amen. Rabbi Jim Pickens was the only Caucasian my LORD-GOD placed me under and I am much thankful for having served under and studied under Rabbi. Amen. I am much thankful to my LORD for having served under mighty men of GOD. Amen. Amen!
Let us beloved, partake of the sweet nectar our LORD-GOD has for us today, as He continues to bless us with growing in the grace and knowledge of our Savior and LORD-YESHUA CHRIST JESUS. Amen.
“2 Samuel 12:26-31
New King James Version
Rabbah Is Captured
26 Now Joab fought against Rabbah of the people of Ammon, and took the royal city. 27 And Joab sent messengers to David, and said, “I have fought against Rabbah, and I have taken the city’s water supply. 28 Now therefore, gather the rest of the people together and encamp against the city and take it, lest I take the city and it be called after my name.” 29 So David gathered all the people together and went to Rabbah, fought against it, and took it. 30 Then he took their king’s crown from his head. Its weight was a talent of gold, with precious stones. And it was set on David’s head. Also he brought out the [a]spoil of the city in great abundance. 31 And he brought out the people who were in it, and put them to work with saws and iron picks and iron axes, and made them cross over to the brick works. So he did to all the cities of the people of Ammon. Then David and all the people returned to Jerusalem.

Beloved, I didn’t mention the seventh mighty man of GOD my LORD blessed me with being a driver and security for; a Bishop I would drive from Cleveland to Akron to fellowship with. Amen. My LORD-GOD taught me much about my earthly father through this Bishop, as he knew my father for many, many years and was able to answer many questions I had about my father, though my father was still alive, we never had talked much, and at the time, still didn’t really talk.
I did not list him as I am struggling to remember his name, though I’ll never forget him as once again, he was indeed, a mighty man of GOD. Amen. His family was beautiful and a joy to be around. He had a small church with a huge heart for our LORD-GOD and each other. Amen.
Thank You Father-GOD; in the Holy precious Name of Your first begotten Son, my Savior and LORD-YESHUA CHRIST JESUS; for the mighty men of GOD, You blessed me to serve You under. I pray LORD they receive many crowns for their service and commitment to You. Amen. Amen. Amen.
Have a blessed Tuesday beloved of YESHUA CHRIST JESUS. Amen. Sincerely: Mr. and Mrs. Timothy M. and Linda Shephard. Amen.
