Birthday message to Apostle Lucille
HER WORKS SHALL PRAISE HER IN THE GATES
We have taken this opportunity to give honor to the visionary of Mount Zion's Mission, our leader, our mother...Apostle Dr Lucille Baird.
For those of you who may be unfamiliar with what you are seeing and may thus be questioning what we are doing tonight...... I refer you to 1st Tim 5:17 The elders who direct the affairs of the church well are worthy of double honor, especially those whose work in preaching and teaching .
Thus these proceedings are not only fair but are indeed right (and required) .
We are told in the scriptures (Matt. 7:15-20) that a good tree produces good fruit and that by their friut you shall know them......thus as we reflect on the years that have been spent in ministry we see the fruit that has been produced....lives that have been touched, internationally (as far as Nigeria), regionally (Antigua in the north to Trinidad and Guyana in the south) and locally from the prison environment to us here in this room and it is as a result of this constant and consistent work that we honor you.
You have done much for the Lord but we pray that your latter days will be more blessed than your former days, that God will continue to increase your talents, your dwelling place will be expanded and that your sons will be strong and dispossess the enemy from their cities.
Finally we pray that (Numbers 6 24-26).....The Lord bless you and keep you; 25 the Lord make his face shine on you and be gracious to you; 26 the Lord turn his face toward you and give you peace......Amen
From the Members and Ministers of Mount Zion’s Missions.
