YA-TA-HEY!

Ya-ta-Hey! It is a Navajo word for HELLO! I was in the Navajo Reservation this past week with my good friend, and great Missionary - Dr. Don Chitty. Bro Don has been serving these precious native Americans for over 30 years and my what a great work God has raised up here.

I was met there by Bro. Chitty and also the great Dr. Darrell Cox from Mocksville, N.C. and there were a number of other preachers there from across the country as well.

We each took turns preaching under the open air tabernacle. The crowds were full and over-flowing each night.

I preached for the school chapel on "Be thou an Example".  And then I preached their Wed. P.M. Service on "The Dangers of Drifting!" My points were:

1. It is dangerous to drift from being saved

2. It is dangerous to drift from being separated from the world

3. It is dangerous to drift from the Scriptures

4. It is dangerous to drift from being a Sold out christian!

You see - most things don't fall apart over night, they decay over time. Here a little, there a little. A home, a car, a machine etc.. these things decay and must be kept up and cared for. Now we can never lose our eternal salvation, but, point 1 refers to hearing  the gospel and doing nothing with it. Each time you hear the gospel and DON'T get saved, you drift a little further away the next time and so on.

We had 20 saved that service i preached and many decisions

All in all we saw 90 saved for the week and revival was felt and sensed by all. I personally had a great time and had several very good hours alone with the Lord at night in my little room, it was sweet and precious!

Glory!  In closing - Ya-Ta-Hey!!
