South Florida

August 31, 2016

 

June 1971 God sent me to South Florida to manage a small animal hospital in Opa-locka. I was not a small animal veterinarian; I basically did large animals, primarily horses. In my practice I was used to driving to calls and working in large stalls, barns and pastures. When I arrived to manage the hospital I was confined to a small building with just a small courtyard where people could walk their pets. I felt very restrained. One day not long after I got there I spoke to God, “I’ll be glad to stay here but you are going to have to change my heart.” My heart changed immediately and I was content. I was the only veterinarian in the clinic, only the Lord was my boss. I worked for a woman that wasn’t too trustworthy but I did very well and the clinic prospered.

I started a bible study in my house in Hollywood, Florida. I invited employees of the clinic and they invited others. I taught the bible to mostly those employees and would minister to them even at work.

One Friday night a woman rushed into my bible study. She announced, “This is my fifth bible study this week.” She went on, “I didn’t have time to fix my children dinner so I just fixed them some popcorn.” That was too much for this disciplined father to listen to. I sent her home and told her to go fix dinner for her family. She never came back.

Patti (my wife now in heaven) and I had a woman from Oregon that lived in our house for a month. She had been a missionary to Cuba along with a man and his wife. They shared with me that for five years the Holy Ghost warned them that a cruel dictator would take their county over if they didn’t repent. That cruel dictator has been obvious for many years.

When I took the clinic over they gave me a sawed off shotgun for my protection. I said take this thing out of here the angels of God surround this place day and night. I never had any trouble the entire time I was there.

My secretary of the clinic had worked both in veterinary clinics and in physician’s offices. She was very talented. One day while at work I mentioned a Ouija Board and she ran away. After I found her I asked her why she ran away. “Oh please, don’t say those words.” I asked, “What words?” “No please, don’t say them!” was her response. I continued, “Are you saying the Ouija Board?” She responded, “That thing told me three times to commit suicide.” I said, “What did you do?” She answered, “I tried to.” I delivered her right there from that wicked witchcraft spirit from the Ouija Board.

One day working in my office a woman came in that had all kinds of jewelry covered with serpents. I said something to her and she shouted, “Oh, God told me I was going to meet a prophet today!” When one of my employees heard the conversation she ran away and hid. When I found her I asked, “What is wrong with you?” She said, "People like that speak curses on people and some die"! That employee was a woman was from South Africa. She was afraid of the devil. I told her, “Don’t be afraid of the devil!”

On another day my secretary was standing behind the counter and a man walked in. He started to talk then threw up his hands and ran out the door. Just a few minutes later he tried to hold up a telephone repairman working on a pole. The man ordered him to come down. Before the telephone worker came down he called the police. The police were close by and killed the intended robber.

A man walked into the clinic later that year and said he was opening an attack dog kennel right there about a hundred yards away from me. He had a hundred attack dogs, Doberman and German Shepherds in training. God used him and them to clean up the neighborhood where I was managing the clinic. Things got very peaceful.

I believe the primary reason God sent me to South Florida was to meet Derek Prince. It was during this period of time when I got to know Derek and Lydia Prince really well. I was invited to just come over to their home in Fort Lauderdale any Thursday afternoon that they were in town. Derek and I would do burgers and hotdogs on the grill and then we would have a meal together. We had some good fellowship together. I was there when Discipleship was introduced. I was present at the first meeting. God was leading me and I saw early that the movement was not of God. Not long after that God told me to return to North Texas.

 God bless you,
