I wanted to share this powerful testimony from this morning…
A few minutes ago as I was coming into our offices here at
He told me that at the exact moment I was pulling into our office he was at the bus stop praying to God because he was stranded away from home and had no idea what to do. As soon as he saw me pulling up he had a thought come into his head saying that I was someone who was coming to help him.
I was the immediate answer to his prayer this morning, not because I had all the answers or even knew what to say. I just simply asked if I could help and Jesus did all the rest!
What’s even crazier is that when I found out where he was from I asked him if he knew a guy named Chad who also lives up in North GA. I told him I wanted to connect him with Chad if possible. He then tells me that he’s heard of Chad over and over again from people saying he needs to connect with him but has never talked to him. I then told him that I was going to call Chad and that they were going to get connected today. Chad has a similar past to Casey and I know can really help him.
Pray for him today that God would get him into a program for his addiction and that he would step into all God has for him! God, our Father, is calling his lost sons and daughters home. His heart is that none should perish but that everyone would be reconciled back to Him!
UPDATE: 6/24/2019 – We just got a report back that Casey has entered into a recovery program in the North Georgia area. He was able to meet with our good friend Chad and he helped him get into a program that will help him be discipled and transformed by the love of Jesus!
“So from now
on we regard no one from a worldly point of view. Though we once regarded Christ in this way, we do so no longer. Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, the new creation has come: The old has gone, the new is here! All this is from God, who reconciled us to himself through Christ and gave us the ministry of reconciliation: that God was reconciling the world to himself in Christ, not counting people’s sins against them. And he has committed to us the message of reconciliation. We are therefore Christ’s ambassadors, as though God were making his appeal through us. We implore you on Christ’s behalf: Be reconciled to God. God made him who had no sin to be sin forus, so that in him we might become the righteousness of God.” — 2 Corinthians 5 16-21

I love these stories. God is truly bringing in the harvest these days through those like you, Andrew, who are totally open to be led by His Spirit. I love how you hear and obey. God’s ways are beautiful.
God allows us to go through those extreme times so we can point others to Him through those experiences.
Thank you Andrew for being Jesus in the flesh, aware and obedient to the Holy Spirit’s prompting. Praying go Casey right now!
Andrew. I am so glad that you were sensitive to the prompting of the Holy Spirit. Many times He is trying to get our attention and we just shrug it off. There is no telling what we miss out on because we are not dialed in to God.
This is amazing. Just another confirmation that Take the City is suppose to be established in Dalton … Praise God!!!
No words can accurately describe Father’s love!
Thank you for sharing that wonderful testimony. It is a reminder of what we are called to do through Christ for the Kingdom of God.
Thank God for you minding the Lord.I also go by my feelings.All good things come from God.We all need to do this.Imagine the world of difference if we all obeyed that still small voice.So blessed to be in this group.May God Bless everyone is my prayer.

Casey Wimberly my heart is over filled with such a joy I haven’t felt in quite sometime as to what I feel right now at this very moment to read this amazing story. The tears that filled my eyes as I read that God knew exactly where you would be and who you would cross paths with that would lead you to him. This is the true work of God and reading this speak loudly to me that I’ve been away from him way too long. Hold to The Lord don’t take your eyes off him… I can only imagine what he has in store for you. I love you Casey and keep on holding on to the one who saved you by his amazing grace.
Amen God is good and works all things to His Glory
Powerful man keep it up😍
Truly touching testimony God bless you all so many people have become so cold n cruel heartless this is what this world needs more of God fearing loving people who aren’t afraid 2 show there love for the lord n for others God bless each n everyone who isnt ashamed or afraid to be a child of god
Casey we’ve known each other for over 20 yrs now and I just wanted to say I know we’ve had some differences but no matter what we’ve always been able to over come it together. I have also surrendered my addiction and my heart to God and have in-rolled into an inpatient rehab center for 9 months.. so believe me when I say I am truly humbled to say I am very glad to be your friend and I love you very much brother and I’ll always be here for you…. God bless you and your family 🙏🙏!!!! ( PRAYER CHANGES THINGS)
