Men in Ministry, Get Ready Get Ready

It has been 12 years since Pastor gave his first sermon to 37 people at a beaten down church in San Francisco, California. The church was Glad Tidings Assembly of God. The congregation was in disarray, as was the property.

Pastor Beiser had a vision. He had a vision from the almost 100 years of prayers for this church congregation and the impact it would have on San Francisco.

Pastor knew the prayers that had been prayed by the faithful every day for a revival in San Francisco. When he came to the church, he had opportunities to go a number of other places, which could have paid his salary and provide a very nice living for him to raise his young family. But, he knew where God wanted him to be and what God wanted him to do.

Pastor showed pictures of the sanctuary, when it was filled with 2,000 people, with a full orchestra and a huge choir. He showed these pictures so the congregation would catch the vision. As in all visions, God weeded out those that just would not get it.

I came to Glad Tidings 6 months after Pastor gave that first sermon. It already had a spark. For sure the presence of God was mighty in the place. The visitors started to come. They came, some stayed, some became leaders, but the wheat was always separated from the chaff. God knew whom the right people were to do His work in this place in His time. God always knows.

God created leaders for Pastor out of former drug users, alcoholics and former back- sliders you name the background and that is who God chose. He created a congregation that is as diverse as any organization on the planet. Over forty countries are represented, all levels of socio-economic and education background. You meet the world at Glad Tidings Church.

The vision was set, the promise was made and confirmed many times. Most recently: “open the balcony” the crowd is coming, open it now, do not wait. The naysayers kept at it, much like in the Book of Nehemiah. Much like Nehemiah, Pastor has the vision from God.

We are praying church, a fasting church and most of all a praising church.

Isaiah 54:2 became the watchwords: “Enlarge the place of your tent, stretch your tent curtains wide, do not hold back; lengthen your cords, strengthen your stakes.”

On Easter Sunday all was ready.

God filled the house to worship Him. This is a mere foretaste of the the future. In 2013 the building will not be larger enough to handle the crowds, San Francisco will become the city leading the revival of God's Church in America and throughout the world. Amen
