Vision

Picture
“The Vision”



Genesis 49:10; The scepter shall not depart from Judah, nor a lawgiver from between his feet, until Shiloh come: and unto him shall the gathering of the people be

Proverbs 29:18; Where there is no vision, the people perish…

Joel 2: 28-29, And it shall come to pass afterward, that I will pour out my spirit upon all flesh; and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, your old men shall dream dreams, your young men shall see visions: And also upon the servants and upon the handmaids in those days will I pour out my spirit.

In July of 2005 I went down to my basement and put on a CD by gospel singer Vicki Yohe and went to the Lord in prayer. A song entitled “The Mercy Seat” began to play and I felt a wave sweep over me as though a cool breeze had come through the room. In my spirit I saw a vision of me sitting at the edge of the mercy seat in the tabernacle of the Lord (See Hebrews 9:4-5). The blood of Jesus was running under the mercy seat like a river. People were rushing towards the mercy seat and I was pulling them up one on the right and then one on the left. I knew they could not get up without help and I was supposed to help them. I heard a voice in the distance from my left side that said, “Shiloh Comes!” I fell on my face and wept. I felt the presence of the Lord so strongly that I could do nothing more than bow my head and weep. Then I heard another voice in the distance on my right that said, “God closes the door and no man can open it!” Then the people rushed towards the mercy seat crushing in on each other trying to reach it. Way in the distance I sensed two massive doors slowly swinging to a close. I began to reach down and pull as fast as I possibly could one from the right and one from the left up onto the mercy seat. I was weeping almost uncontrollably for I knew anyone who could not get to the mercy seat would be lost. Yet despite my sorrow for their loss the presence of the Lord was so intoxicating that I felt I would expire from the sheer joy and awe though I knew I was experiencing only a tiny part of him.


I understood that I was to birth Anita Ayers Ministries. God gave me a vision of the woman in worship you see in the opening page of the web site. I drew a rough picture of this woman and shared it with my sister Debbie and my niece Delores. A while later I saw almost an exact replica of that picture on the cover of Time magazine. Now everywhere I turn I see it replicated in Christian and secular media.


As the evening shadows of the last days fall across the face of this earth Anita Ayers Ministries will reach down and pull someone up onto the mercy seat that Jesus purchased with his own precious blood. This is a call to action for all born again believers across this nation and around the world. The fields are white to harvest and the labors are few. Let us lay down all rebellion and selfishness and pull all those we can from eternal destruction. Glory to God for Shiloh comes!



“The Practical Purpose”
As God gave me the vision for this ministry I began to search out what would be the focal point. What could I teach people that was not already abundantly available? The Lord has revealed to me that millions of people in this country and all over the world have a misconception of who he is and what he is offering to them. I saw that I must teach all who will listen how deeply and profoundly God loves them.


My quest is to reveal his passionate love towards all of us beginning with the worst criminal and ending with the most judgmental puritan. I must illustrate his boundless mercy most especially to those who least deserve it. I am compelled to explain his great generosity to the worst penny pinching miser and his uncanny ability to reveal a brilliant diamond inside a chunk of blackened coal. We can receive God’s blessings of health and prosperity here and now. We cannot possibly be a blessing if we are not blessed. We cannot be the patient and the Doctor at the same time.
I have been given a mandate to banish the boogie man God. People get the idea that God is out to get them. As if God were standing back chuckling as we drown in the quagmire of our lives. It is my call to reveal his overwhelming desire to bless and help us in every situation. To refute and withstand those who would misinterpret the word of God and cause him to appear as an ogre or at the very least an impotent observer in our lives.
 

God has given us the power to be more than conquerors in every trial. This is not: the hard old way where all we can do is try to: keep our spirits up as we drown in sickness, poverty, oppression and tribulation until we die and cross over into: the sweet by and by. This is, in reality, a power packed relationship that will bring great joy and triumph in our lives and the lives of all those we touch. Each one of us must face the storms, the valleys, and the wilderness of life; but in the final analysis the word says we are not taking up residence in these trials but we are going “through” them until we gain the surpassing victory!
We have opened Anita Ayers Ministries At: 8229 46th Ave. N. St. Petersburg, Florida 33709
We are now having church unusual walking in the revelation of the word of God and the power He has made available to us who believe. We are a unique ministry that will minister the gospel in a new and innovative way. We will not have church as usual in the traditional sense. We are building a ministry that will reach out to the un-churched non-religious people in our society that are searching for the one true God.

I know that if we hear and obey Gods words of love and instruction he will give us overwhelming victory in every circumstance of our lives! We shall be well and greatly blessed and we will accomplish his purpose for our ministry.
His willing servant,
Anita Ayers
