Not only do we still produce the CD’S for you to share, now we are producing Podcast cards with the QR codes that you can share with OTHERS! All you have to do is scan the code above with your phone and it will take you to our podcast for this month, “A New Season.”
We also have started a Radio station for you to listen to and share with OTHERS! www.Lonesomeroadradio.com not only that we have an app in your app store on your phone you can download. So many ways to share the Good News of Jesus our Lord. God continues to increase His favor in our lives, our Ministries, & our Churches. He wants to amazes us with His goodness. He wants to bring His people up to a new level. God is looking for those who are willing to say, “Here am I Lord, use me. We serve a God of increase, so we need to increase our vision in this new season, this new year that God has allowed us to have. So many lost souls are out there on that ole Lonesome Road, we need to get busy!!!

I want everything that God has for me and I know you do too! So let’s pray and agree together that in 2023, God will be so big in us that everyone who we come in contact with will see the Jesus who lives in us!

I got a call from one of our partners, Ronnie Archer the first week of January. He shared his new year’s resolution with me. Ronnie said, “I want God to be so big in me in 2023, that all the world will see the God that lives in me!” I told Ronnie, “I was going to make that my resolution too, and share it with everyone I know.” I am claiming this resolution for me and all of you who want to do something great for God!

The time is now for us to get busy and stretch this Gospel net all across America, and into the uttermost parts of the world. Our radio station has had over 16 countries log on and listen to our broadcast. We need you to start sharing our radio station link, our CD’S, Our Podcast cards. We need to reach the lost. God wants to use you to do the impossible today. God isn’t looking for impressive people, He wants willing ones who will bow their knee in humble submission. God wants to turn you into His mighty warrior. We are who God says we are and we have what God says we have. I declare today that the Word of God is true for your life the same as it is true for my life. We can do all things through Christ who strengthens us. We are full of talent, creativity, and wisdom. We can accomplish whatever dreams and visions God has given us. I declare in Jesus name that we walk in divine health. We will have the favor of God and the anointing of God with us every step of the way, with every person we meet. We will prosper and we will succeed in everything we attempt for God. God has planted seeds of greatness in each one of us and we are coming into a new season of increase, a new season of God’s favor, a new season of God’s blessings! We are blessed & highly favored and we will walk in it in 2023!!!

Joining the Family Dinner

A very rich man sat at his dinner table and watched his three children fight over the TV remote. He decided to make his children an incredible offer. If they would stop what they were doing and come to the table as a family for dinner, then join him to clear away the dishes, he would reward them generously. He told them that after dinner his private jet would fly them to the best theme parks. Then they could tour the world and visit any location they personally desired. Added to this, they could invite all their friends and the same offer would be made to them.

Two of his children leapt eagerly from their chairs and joined their father at the dinner table - this was an extremely generous offer not to be missed. They were so overjoyed, that spending ten minutes afterwards doing the dishes was just an opportunity to discuss the fantastic wonders to come. As for phoning their friends with the invitation, that certainly wasn’t a chore.
However, one son didn’t join the family dinner - his favourite show was on. He gave away the opportunity of a lifetime to watch a half-hour sitcom.
When we believe in the Lord Jesus Christ, we are ‘reborn’ into God’s family. As our Heavenly Father, God has made us a generous offer, which makes the offer described above look dull. God has said, if we join our family at the table (Christian fellowship), help with the dishes (Christian service) and invite all our friends (evangelize), He will give us fantastic rewards, far beyond our imagination and expectation (2 Timothy 2: 11-13).
What we do in life ‘does’ have repercussions throughout eternity. Life is so small compared to forever – less than a half-hour sitcom. We would be pretty stupid not to switch off ‘life’s distractions’ and join the family dinner for an eternity of riches.
But as it is written: “Eye has not seen, nor ear heard, nor have entered into the heart of man the things which God has prepared for those who love Him.” 1 Corinthians 2:9.

Listen or Download This Months Featured CD / Podcast

2023, who would have ever thunk it! We begin our 23rd year of ministry here at Lonesome Road Ministries. This month’s CD we have some great testimonies by Joe Arview about his songs and also about a great hymn, I Have Decided. You are gonna love these stories by Joe. As you can see by the above picture we now have many ways to get the message to you. You can play the CD or simply scan the code with your phone to listen to this month’s message. We have come a long way from when we first started a cassette tape ministry in October 2000. I am reminded how that first tape ministry failed and how heart broke I was. I thought, well I tried but I failed, I guess I will just have to quit. I called my mentor Ray Sisk down in Appling, Ga. Ray had a ministry called I-20 for Jesus that I followed and simulated when I began Lonesome Road Ministry. I called Ray and told him, the Church told me I couldn’t do a tape ministry there anymore. I told Ray I guess I’m just going to have to quit. Ray told me that day, “Son you done put your hand to the plow, you can’t quit. If God has called you to do a tape ministry, then you do a tape ministry. You do it out of your garage, your house or where ever you can but you can’t quit.” So I decided right then, there’s no place to quit. When God calls you to do something, you must do what God calls you to do. The devil has been trying to stop this ministry now for over 22 years and I refuse to quit. We just ordered another load of CD’S and the price has almost doubled. The postage continues to go higher and higher but I won’t let that stop me, we will continue to send out free CD’S. Even our Collector Cards we are just getting started making, yeah you guessed it, the price of these cards are going up too. Satan is a liar and a thief and he come to kill, steal and destroy.

But the good news is, Jesus came to give us life and life more abundantly.
I get calls everyday from folks all around the country asking me what my opinion is of the state of our country. Many people are wringing their hands and crying woe is me!!! I will tell you, that makes our job even more important than it ever was. We must keep our hands to the plow!! We are to shine the light of Jesus to our family, friends, & neighbors, and as for me and my house we are going to serve the Lord! God called each of us to be that light in this dark world. We are blessed & highly favored and He has called us to shine our light so others might see Jesus in us. As Ray Sisk told me in 2001, son you done put your hand to the plow you can’t quit! You keep on doing what God has called you to do and He will continue to lift you to higher levels to reach more people. So I decided in 2001 that I would not quit no matter what. Today I have decided no matter what happens or how ridiculous the prices get, I will keep on keeping on for Jesus. There is someone out there right now that needs to see the light of Jesus in us. It might be a family member, a friend, or a neighbor; but God has someone for us to witness to today. If every Christian was to shine our light in this dark world it wouldn’t be long and this dark world would start changing. I have decided to keep on witnessing and shining the light of Jesus everywhere I go. Join with us here at Lonesome Road Ministry and we can make a difference in someone’s life today. We might not reach everyone, but we can make a difference to the ones we do reach out too. We must take up our cross daily and follow Jesus. I will not quit until I hear well done thou good and faithful servant!
