THE FINAL WORD
As I offer this final Wednesday's Word I sincerely pray that God would keep each of you from falling and present you faultless before the presence of God's glory with exceeding joy.
Thank you for taking this journey with me and the Helton Family these last 79 weeks. I thank you for your prayers and your support. May God continue to cover us as we serve the CME Church and the 10th Episcopal District (West Africa).
Blessings,
Bishop Ricky D. Helton

SERIOUS BUSINESS
Luke 10:1-11
Kingdom Business is Serious Business. It is held to a higher standard. Today the CME Church prepares to usher in a new class of leaders. We hope and pray that they realize the seriousness of their responsibilities as they are asked to carry on the work of the church. If you are asked to work in church, please consider it 'serious business'.

THE GOODNESS OF GOD
Psalm 73:28
GOD IS GOOD, ALL THE TIME, AND ALL THE TIME, GOD IS GOOD. A very familiar phrase. Do we really understand the phrase? The goodness of God is a moral quality which constitutes excellence. In short, goodness boils down to kindness, generosity and most of all LOVE. Do you possess the goodness of God in your life?

Good Trouble
1 Kings 19:1-15
How many times have we found ourselves in trouble?
Trouble that turned out to be good trouble. Today's Word
encourages us to stand for justice and speak truth to
power. Be willing to get into trouble, good trouble, necessary trouble.

The Sin of Indifference
If you are not regarded as a human being, how does
that make you feel? The sin of indifference has no
emotional regard. It feels nothing. It has little regard
for human life and worth. As our society plunges deeper
into the abyss of mass shootings and hatred, we have
to get the memo to learn how to love, to pray, and
to care for each other if we are to heal our land.
We thank all of you who joined us on this final night of the 15-minute prayer call. May God continue to bless each of you. See you in Cincinnati.
15 minute prayer is live on Zoom. It will be posted later tonight. Thank You.

Come join us as we pray for 15-minutes tonight at 8:30PM EST. This will be our final call as the General Conference begins June 25 in Cincinnati. Thank you for being on the journey with us. The Heltons

UNITY IN DIVERSITY
As we approach Pentecost 2022 let us confirm our diversity. It
needs to be celebrated as we all have endured so much in these
last 27 months since the Covid19 Pandemic hit our world.
We need to realize that diversity does not require us to change our
culture, it only enhances it. Diversity allows us an opportunity
to come together and celebrate each other.
Wednesday's Word 05-25-2022
God vs. Culture - Which One Will Win
Acts 16:16-34
Do you understand the power of culture? Culture defines us and is passed down from generation
to generation. It includes codes of dress, language, religion, rituals, art, food, etc. It is powerful
and extremely difficult to change. When culture comes against God, who wins? Do you understand the
power of God? Yes culture is powerful and will sometimes win, but God will have the final word.
When you step back and allow God to move, God will win!
Wednesday's Word 05/18/2022
The Opening Of The Heart
Acts 16:9-15
What in life is more important than our hearts?
God opens the heart and not ourselves. We must
recognize that if we are to succeed or survive in
the future. God desires for us to listen to the
Holy Spirit. God desires to have our hearts open
so that we might hear, that we might be inspired.
That we might be open to venture out so that
others might come in and join.

A Time Of Dedication
John 10:22-30
Today's text is about a time for dedication. The focus should be on Jesus, the Messiah, the True Shepherd. Jesus is the light that still shines in the winter moments of our lives, in the darkest of times. As we all prepare to move forward in this pandemic and come out of this darkness and resume living, are we prepared to rededicate our lives, our temples, our bodies, ourselves to Christ? Are we ready to follow the Good Shepherd?
Wednesday's Word 04/27/2022
Walking In The Dark
Acts 9:1-20
Have you ever experienced a period of darkness in your life (or you may be experiencing it now)? You feel as though you cannot see your way. You are blind and you cannot see any light. You need to know that all darkness is not bad. God is always present and presents to you an invitation to see the light within your soul if you are willing.

THE RESURRECTION:
A FRESH AND REVISED THEOLOGICAL PERSPECTIVE
John 20:19-31
Do the scars of your past continue to harm you today? Do they continue to pain you?
Are you willing to show them that you might be healed from the hurt? Show them so that they do not have the last word. Remember, through the Resurrection, God has the last word. Through the Resurrection we are healed.
Wednesday's Word: April 13, 2022
You Know My Name
John 20:1-18
Who doesn't like to be recognized and to be called by their name? We all do. Jesus acknowledged Mary and called her by name. The joy she felt. Their relationship was re-established. Jesus knows us - He knows us by our name. Let us seek Jesus
and establish a relationship.

FULFILLING OUR DESTINY
04-06-2022
Luke 19:28-40
What is your destiny in life? Are you fulfilling your destiny? Are you involved in the fulfillment? God has a plan for each of us. Your life and mine is already outlined and its course are predefined. When we relinquish our will for God's Will we are able to accept the highs and lows. We are able to bear our cross. We are able to fulfill our destiny.
Wednesday's Word - March 30, 2022
Rivers In The Desert
Isaiah 43:16-21
Today's Word tells us or encourages us to focus on the present and the future (not dwell on the past). God wants to do a new thing. God wants us to bear witness to and further the mission of God in the present and future. God is making a way for us in the desert (our Pandemic). God is providing RIVERS in the desert.
