Dear Brothers and Sisters,
“…Lord, those man, maybe some of them present here, some of them hearing the tape around the world, may they realize that this is the calling out of the Bride, not a Pentecostal message.
The Pentecostal message was to restore the gifts back in the Church. But this is the calling forth of the Bride, another Message that was to come just before Sodom was to be burned.
65-1126 Works Is Faith Expressed
Praise the Name of the Lord! It was another powerful Message packed full of REVELATION. Lord let that reality, that WE ARE that Bride in this hour, anchor deep into each and every heart. We, Your Sweetheart, are doing our best to walk perfectly in the step of Your Message in this hour. We love you with all our hearts, and are awaiting Your soon Coming with great anticipation, Amen.
It is on my heart once again to open the doors of the Tabernacle tonight for silent prayer, from 5:00 pm – 8:00 pm. What an opportunity the Lord has given us to come together in one mind and one accord, and call upon His Name. Whatever is on your heart today, He wants to just talk it all over with you this evening.
I would like for the church to have the same schedule and guidelines as we had last week, as noted below.
I pray the Lord will give you a special evening at the Tabernacle.
Now, man was born to have fellowship. Man, in the beginning, back in the garden of Eden, he had wonderful fellowship. God come down and fellowshipped with His company of men and women every evening. In the cool of the evening God would come down under the big palm trees, perhaps His sacred Light, as it was, shining down on Adam and Eve, in that great cathedral in the open. Fellowship with God. Had nothing to worry about as long as they were fellowshipping.

Dear Brothers and Sisters,
It is always humbling for me to address you, who I feel to be the Royal Seed of Abraham, the Bride of Jesus Christ, the called out and Elected Lady of God, and those who recognize God’s Program for TODAY:
Lord God, Elohim, standing there in human flesh, showing that He would so anoint His Church in the last days. It'd be God working in human flesh again.
PRAISE THE LORD. That IS the Message! What a wonderful time we had together at the Lord’s Table on Sunday, as we heard ELOHIM speak to us through His prophet. Whatever need you came in with, it was given to you right there! For the Word came to the prophet, he spoke it, and His Word can never fail. It’s YOURS, and the works that follow will express your faith in Him! Praise His wonderful Name.
It is on my heart to do something special for the church this evening. The Tabernacle doors will be open tonight from 5:00 pm – 8:00 pm for SILENT PRAYER. Come “as you are,” casual dress is fine. Just come by yourself or with your family and meditate on the Lord Jesus. Thank Him for sending the Message of the hour to restore all things. Thank Him for the revelation He gave you, for the opportunity to serve Him, for whatever is on your heart. And don’t forget, don’t do all the talking, let Him speak too. Just listen for that still small Voice to speak to your heart. You can take a seat anywhere in the congregation, or pray at the altar.
I would like to ask for each one to limit their time in the church to about 30 minutes or so, as the Tabernacle does not have the seating capacity to accommodate everyone. If we stagger the prayer times, everyone will be able to enter into the congregation and enjoy their time in the Lord.
I’d also ask each of you to be very reverent, and refrain from speaking in the vestibule and congregation area. We are not coming to be seen, heard, or for fellowship, but to WORSHIP Him silently. And please do not fellowship in the parking lot after prayer, but go home in the same Spirit.
It is my grand privilege today to set this appointment up for a personal interview between you and our Lord Jesus. May it be a blessing to each of you and your families.
Brother Joseph
Our most beloved heavenly Father, it is indeed a great privilege that we have to come to Thee in the way of prayer, and with the great promise behind it, that prayer changes things. And in this day that we are now living, there is so many changes needed, and we pray that You will change all the wrong to right. Change sorrow into joy; change sickness into health; change sin into righteousness; change gloom into glory. Grant it, Father.
Hear the prayers of Your people as we offer it to Thee in the Name of the Lord Jesus, Thy lovely Son. Amen.

Dear Brothers and Sisters,
What a wonderful year the Lord has given us in 2017. He has poured out His blessings more than we could have ever imagined, and taken us to great new heights in the WORD. We have seen Him orchestrate every Message perfectly on time, for each and every service. Although the world knows nothing about it, our Father is speaking to us through His still small voice, whispering His secret plan of His soon Coming. Oh don’t you just love Him for that! The heart of the world is failing for fear, but to His Bride: soon we shall see Him as He is. Blessed be the Name of the Lord.
As you all know, this is the season that we set aside for the elections of each office in the church. We are aiming to have the election sometime before the end of the year. As usual, the ballots will be available for you to pick up and carry to your seat prior to service. We will have a designated time during the service for you to fill out your ballot, and will collect them in boxes located at each door immediately after service.
I have contacted the brothers on each board, and thus, the deacon board, the trustee board, assistant pastor, and I would each like to continue at our posts of duty, if it be the Lord’s Perfect Will. We will have a few modifications to the trustee board, however. Our Brother Mike Eplion is physically not well enough to be at each service at this time. As you have noticed, we have asked three other brothers to fill in as trustees on a trial basis: Brother Paul Branham, Brother Mike Daulton, and Brother Greg Foster. I have ask the brothers if they feel they would like to continue on as trustees, in which they have all replied, if it would be the will of the Lord, they would count it an honor to help in any way they could to be of service for the Bride of Christ. Their names will be included on this year’s ballots, and presented before the church for consideration of their full-time positions as trustees.
I just wanted to get this letter to each of you, so you will have ample time to take these things before the Lord in prayer.
I would also like to take this opportunity to thank each of you for all your attendance at the services, the unparalleled LOVE you always express, and your desire to be more like Him. For I know that the unity and love we have together is pleasing to The Father, and I am only looking forward to even greater things He has in store for us in the future.
May God richly bless you,
Brother Joseph
