A cross-denominational empowerment church, spreading the Gospel of Jesus Christ, feeding the poor, healing the sick, and equipping the saints to do the work of the ministry. UPCOMING EVENTS- Fall 2006 Quarterly Soteria Ministries 2003 EDITION 5 Vol. 6 SOTERIA Church and Ministry News is a quarterly publication to inform and enlist everyone to work out their Salvation by Loving others and living a disciplined life in CHRIST! Con t from front& .. with orders from God to proclaim the Kingdom, testify of salvation, deliverance, healing, and victory over sin, as well as warfare worship, banners and shofars, prophetic declaration and proclamation that the Kingdom of God is here in Asheville and nothing was going to stop it from coming in full force! We also brought the message of the Love of God while battling in the spirit with witches, drunks, homosexual business owners, and other unbelievers. Asheville is one of the capitals of ungodliness in this country. What did we expect to happen? Was our enemy simply going to lay down and quit? What do you think? Not hardly! As this battle rages Soteria has taken many hits. Even during the first incursion into the enemy s territory at Pritchard Park he was even able to convince some of our own soldiers to cause strife and division right in the middle of the battle. We also began to lose troops on the  home front. Intercessors began to wane with distractions on personal levels. People s focus began to turn inward and even judging the ministry and me, the leader. Even though there were salvations during our battles, even though there were drunks who became sober, filled with the Holy Spirit with the evidence of speaking in tongues, and dedicated their lives to Christ, even though there were great battles in the heavens when the Kingdom of God was declared and some even said demons were bowing. But mostly, even though many saints stepped out for the first time in their lives to enter into the fray of real confrontational warfare, we somehow have lost that impetus. We somehow have returned to the complacent due to the complaining. We ve allowed the suffering to be from the suggestions of our adversary that the  other guy did it wrong, is wrong, can t be supported any longer, and now there are even more walking wounded because of a lie from hell. This is our common enemy s tactics; to divide and conquer. That s what it has boiled down to, folks. Traditionally, people believe and accuse what is offered from the accuser. God and His Holy Spirit doesn t accuse or condemn. We see that some people have retreated like the great prophet Elijah into their caves after the battle. But Elijah heard from God in that cave. God was not in the wind, the earthquake, or the fire, but in the still small voice. God told Elijah to go back to Israel where God had 7000 who had not bowed their knee to Baal (1Kings 19:9-18). We pray for those people that are here and want to fight, want to war, want to win, and will not give up, whatever the cost! This what it s all about! Satan has done this to the church for thousands of years. He knows so well how to make humans look like fools. All he has to do is accuse and they take over. Christians do more work for Satan than ever imagined. Satan has time to recruit many unsaved ones while children of God simply stab each other or shut each other out of their lives and their hearts all by themselves with their blame games and their wait and see attitudes. Meanwhile, the kingdom of darkness advances. All that was won on these battlefields of Asheville will go for naught if the ground that was taken, is given back, by the very ones who fought for it. Oh yes, the Bible states  WE WIN! in the end. So, do we wait for the  other guy to apologize? Do we continue to cower in our churches on Sunday mornings to  get a word or go see a  talented musician or speaker, appeasing our flesh? Or, do we get out of our own comfort zone of waiting for others to do the work of the ministry and move out in Faith to self sacrifice and possible death? Has our alabaster  box been broken yet? Have we poured out every bit of essence in us that is required to anoint our King? Or, have we paid homage and just tipped him with a couple hours a week of singing and tithing? He owns us and everything we have, you know. We have to be ready to sacrifice every drop of our blood. Fortunately, He isn t a demanding and forceful lover. But, He has already told us what is required, the same as He gave, our life. Are we going to live and have our being in Him or our opinionated, wounded, and Monday morning quarterbacking nature? Can Asheville win while struggling internal personal strife between members of His body continues? I see and hear that from every congregation. There is no immunity in any church building. People move from building to building continually judging. There is no perfect church anywhere until people begin to walk in full power, in ALL the gifts and callings, and settle somewhere committed no matter what happens! Right relationships are a WORK process. Asheville has been destined for more than this. The SHIFT has come. There is a period of peace now so you can hear His still small voice& .A bigger battle is coming! You will need His instructions to understand it is essential to be a united body in victory and receive the prophets rewards. SOTERIA is a Love based Church with IRS tax exempt status. We very much appreciate your support and pledge to apply all gifts to where God leads us in our mission. Please send your Love Gift to: PO Box 7, Mars Hill, NC 28754 Receipts sent yearly. THANK YOU! CONTACT INFORMATION: If you need information please call 828-350-7744 or email - Pastors Ernest H. Hays pastor@soteriaministries.org Melody D. Hays Yeazell@juno.com CHECK OUR WEWBSITE - WWW.SOTERIAMINISTRIES.ORG THANK YOU TO ALL WHO HAVE GIVEN GIFTS! So much is happening! We @ Soteria have been commissioned to do a few things. Our purpose here is to help rend the heavens in downtown Asheville so the Glory of the Lord can manifest in such a way as to be a starting point for an outpouring to the nation. The presence of God will be so thick here in WNC it will be like  walking in warm butter. In order to accomplish this goal we all have to fast, pray, feed the poor, heal the sick, mend the broken hearted, and cast out devils. This is the commission Jesus gave all of us. Signs and wonders are for the unbeliever and will follow all believers! We have had many signs and wonders. We have had many healings and deliverances. Devils have been cast out of people. Deliverance from mindsets, strongholds, traditions, lack of Faith, and so much more has been accomplished over the last three years Melody and I have been ministering in downtown Asheville. We have fed and clothed poor. We have found shelter and support for them. We have given away many books, coffee, water, and prayers abounding to help them reach their destiny and callings in life while finding some relief from their pain. We have proof, fruit, of our labors. In the course of battle are also casualties. The Lord makes it very clear we will suffer persecution and even some death in battle. This is battle folks, no doubt about it. We have lost lives to the streets. We have had many things stolen, broken, damaged, and even some of our people harassed and attacked. During the last five months we ve suffered loss of  troops under the tremendous pressure of leviathan, the communications demonic attack that has thwarted almost all our servants and friend s relationships to the point that even Melody and I were in relational jeopardy. Yes, Melody and I were separated for a time of prayer this summer for ten weeks. We re back together now but we re still paying a huge price. We had marched into downtown Asheville Continued& & & .over Folks, due to changing impetus we may have to shut down Soteria downtown. This means we, Melody and I, will be returning to the secular market for work and financial support. We regret the sudden announcement, but we have no choice but to take a hiatus from ministry and return to secular work for financial security. Since Soteria was incorporated in 2003 we have plunged a lot of our own money into the ministry. We still retain almost $40k in debt due to equipment, stock, and supplies spending while no commensurate salary was taken to provide enough income to override those expenses as well as pay for the every day costs of owning a home and simply living. We haven t been extravagant nor impulsive. And, we haven t had savings, vacation money, or health insurance during these last three and a half years. But we have the normal things like everyone else that continually has to be paid for every month. We ve simply borrowed against our personal credit to do this. Now that our debt has reached the limit of our ability to repay, and in percentage to our net worth, we simply cannot go on. We ve sacrificed all we can. It takes more than we ve ever made here in Asheville to subsist. Soteria s downtown needs are falling too far behind for rent, supplies, communications, and insurance to remain open. It seems we ve not been able to create enough exposure in this area to provide what is needed to support this endeavor. We haven t been able to garner enough people and businesses that will pledge any amount to provide for this type of ministry as there are in other metropolitan markets. We are praying if God wants to continue to use Soteria and it s facility downtown to be a beachhead for prayer and helping to coordinate outreaches downtown, as well as giving to the poor in many ways, then He will show us before the end of September. Otherwise we will begin the shutdown process in October to be closed by November or December. If there are businesses, ministries, or teams of people who desire to support or use the facilities of Soteria, please step forward NOW. Our place was always meant to be utilized constantly every day by many different groups. We pray that will still happen!
