Pastor Fisher was invited to present a message to the Auxiliaries of the New Salem Missionary Baptist Church, which is under the leadership of Pastor Michael & Lilly Franks in the St. Louis area. His message was to encourage them to continue in the path that they are walking even against opposition that might come along to thwart their progress. Listen to this message which he has titled:”The New You and the Ministry of Encouragement”

| New Testament Scripture Reading: 1 Corinthians 15:51 – 58 (KJV) |
|
|
1Co 15:51 Behold, I shew you a mystery; We shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed,
1Co 15:52 In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed.
1Co 15:53 For this corruptible must put on incorruption, and this mortal must put on immortality.
1Co 15:54 So when this corruptible shall have put on incorruption, and this mortal shall have put on immortality, then shall be brought to pass the saying that is written, Death is swallowed up in victory.
1Co 15:55 O death, where is thy sting? O grave, where is thy victory?
1Co 15:56 The sting of death is sin; and the strength of sin is the law.
1Co 15:57 But thanks be to God, which giveth us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.
1Co 15:58 Therefore, my beloved brethren, be ye stedfast, unmoveable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, forasmuch as ye know that your labour is not in vain in the Lord.

4) Maintaining Stability (Pressing ahead regardless of any internal or external stumbling blocks) |
