Pastor Jim Cymbala is a powerful and impactful preacher. His written messages are a great blessing throughout the world.
There are men in the Word of God who, beyond the message God gave them, were called to have their lives become a testimony. Their life becomes a message. Men like Hosea, Jeremiah to whom God said: Your life will become a message.
I believe that beyond the messages that God gave to Pastor Cymbala, his very life became a message for us. A message of faith, but also a message of courage and determination.
If you can imagine the perseverance and courage it takes to hold 4 meetings a Sunday, for years and years. Those of us who have done three meetings a Sunday know the exhaustion we can feel. They have done 4 every Sunday for many years. Now, having just moved into a much larger sanctuary, they still have 3 meetings every Sunday.
Imagine the courage it takes to rebuild those thousands of destroyed lives that come to them. The courage and faith to find those tens of millions of dollars that are needed to bring this ministry and to face the opposition. Can you imagine how Satan hates this church? Can you imagine how he must attack it in every way possible? How our brother himself and his family must be attacked? I call on all of you, after you read the teachings brought by Pastor Jim Cymbala to pray for him and the work of Brooklyn Tabernacle. How many of you can understand how much heaven loves this church? He is a man of faith and courage who will teach us today. I encourage you to open your hearts.
