Congratulations Life Nation, on the five GRACE years in Ministry that the Lord has brought you so far. The Lord is blessing you with His Wisdom, understanding and knowledge in learning, building and growing-up in Christ as the Holy Ghost guides you into all Truth in His Word. In this time of celebrating, recognize you are being propelled to the next level in the Anointing that the Lord is pouring out of the spirit of your Pastor, Dr. Botiwa Jackson. I am proud of the Lord in him and believe the Lord will keep him rooted, steadfast and obedient in the Anointing that continually grounds you and thousands upon thousands around the world that hear him sing, witness, preach, and teach the Gospel of Christ in the Truth of God's Word.

My prayer is that the LRM family will never settle and become lazy, forgetting that it is by God's GRACE that we are saved through FAITH. It is not of yourselves but the gift of God's only begotten Son, that we have been privileged with a loyal Shepherd, with a staff of loyal people being surrounding by loyal members, carving this vision for LRM by the Grace of God that the Lord has given to all of you. So a word to the wise, don't be just hearers and not doers of the Word. Don’t be deceived into thinking that you can obtain without pressing toward the mark that is in Christ Jesus. I urge you ministers of real people with real struggles to elevate your hearing of the Word of God and by Grace do it. ....So in blessings let the Lord bless you and in multiplying let the Lord multiply you, for I call by faith many more celebrated years for Pastor Botiwa and the LRM family, in Jesus Name, Amen!

In His Service, Love Dr. Mary Jackson Learn more at: www.life-nation.org

MY TESTIMONY

ON JULY 26TH I WAS ADMITTED INTO THE HOSPITAL AFTER HAVING BEEN AT HOME WITH A FEVER OF 104 FOR AN ENTIRE WEEK. WHEN I GOT TO THE HOSPITAL MY OXYGEN LEVEL WAS IN THE 80’S. THE DR.’S RAN A MULTITUDE OF TESTS TO FIND OUT WHAT WAS WRONG WITH ME. THE DR. CAME INTO MY ROOM AND TOLD ME, I HAD PNEUMONIA IN BOTH OF MY LUNGS. HE ALSO INFORMED ME THAT 17% OF BOTH LUNGS WERE INFECTED, AND I ALSO TESTED POSITIVE FOR COVID. THEREFORE, THE CONDITION I WAS CURRENTLY BATTLING WAS CALLED COVID PNEUMONIA. I ASKED HIM IF THE DAMAGE TO MY LUNGS COULD BE REVERSED. HE SAID HE WAS NOT SURE IF THE DAMAGE COULD BE REVERSED. MY LUNGS WERE SCARED. WHILE IN THE HOSPITAL I WENT INTO ACUTE RESPIRATORY FAILURE. I WAS UNABLE TO BREATHE ON MY OWN. THE DR’S AND NURSES AND RESPIRATORY DEPARTMENT BEGAN TO PREPARE ME FOR ICU TO BE PUT ON A VENTILATOR. GOD ALWAYS SENDS YOU WHAT YOU NEED WHEN YOU NEED IT. I HAD A NURSE WHO BEGAN PRAYING FOR ME RIGHT THERE IN THE HOSPITAL ROOM. SHE CALLED OUT TO GOD ON MY BEHALF AND TOLD THE HIM. “LORD, MYESHA NEEDS YOU COME AND SEE ABOUT HER!” THE PRAYERS OF THE RIGHTEOUS AVAILETH MUCH. SHE PUT ME ON A HIGH-POWER BREATHING MACHINE AND TOLD ME THAT SHE WOULD NOT LEAVE ME UNTIL SHE WAS SURE IT WAS WORKING. I WAS THEN CONFINED TO A HOSPITAL BED ON A BREATHING APPARATUS, UNABLE TO DO ANYTHING FOR MYSELF. TOTALLY RELIANT UPON OTHERS TO HELP ME, I PRAYED AND TALKED TO THE LORD LYING ON MY BACK, ON A BREATHING MACHINE. UNAWARE MY ORGANS WERE FAILING AS WELL.

SIGNS

THE LORD GAVE ME STEP-BY-STEP INSTRUCTIONS TO FOLLOW IN ORDER TO RECEIVE HEALING. I FOLLOWED THE INSTRUCTIONS THAT GOD GAVE ME. THE FIRST INSTRUCTION – RECEIVE YOUR HEALING. I RECEIVED FROM GOD WHAT I COULDN’T SEE IN THE NATURAL BUT WAS READILY AVAILABLE IN THE SPIRIT. THE SECOND INSTRUCTION WAS TO SPEAK TO HIM IN THE HEAVENLY LANGUAGE. I WASN’T WHAT YOU CALL A FLUENT SPEAKER OF TONGUES, BUT I FOLLOWED THE INSTRUCTIONS. I WON’T SIT HERE AND TELL YOU THAT ALL OF THESE THINGS I WENT THROUGH WERE A PIECE OF CAKE BECAUSE, THEY WEREN’T. I WILL SAY TO YOU THAT YOU MUST GET TO A PLACE WHERE YOU HEAR GOD’S VOICE AND HEED HIS INSTRUCTIONS. LISTENING TO AND FOLLOWING GOD’S INSTRUCTIONS ARE KEY COMPONENTS TO RECEIVING HIS BENEFITS. I HAD TO PARTICIPATE IN MY OWN HEALING. YOU HAVE TO BE A WILLING PARTICIPANT; YOU CAN’T JUST SIT BACK AND WAIT FOR GOD TO DO IT WITHOUT YOUR PARTICIPATION. YOU MUST SPEAK THE WORD OVER YOUR LIFE AND PULL DOWN FROM THE SPIRIT REALM WHAT YOU NEED. THE ENEMY WAS ON ASSIGNMENT TO TAKE MY LIFE BUT, GOD BLOCKED IT! GOD HAS GIVEN US A GUARANTEED PROMISE AND LO, I WILL BE WITH YOU…AS A DIRECT RESULT HE CARRIED ME THROUGH. I SURVIVED IT!

WONDERS

THE R'S PASTO R RIDE O DIE Hello, I am Elder Carlin R. Williams, Director of Ministries and Worship at LRM. A favorite scripture that stays on repeat in my heart is Ephesians 6:11-17 which talks about the Armor of God. I love this scripture because it reminds that in addition to the protection God already provides, he has also given me tools to protect myself DAILY as one of His children: faith, His word, peace, salvation, righteousness (walking and living right), and truth. My absolute favorite song is "Send One Your Love" by Stevie Wonder. It describes vulnerability in love at its best. I want potential new/current members to know that although I am real straight forward and direct, I always speak from a place of love. My heart is huge and I want people to believe who they are in God; if you don't know, I'm ready to help you find out. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ What’s up Life Nation! I am Elder Quincie Howard aka Elder Q. Here at LRM, I oversee the Pastoral Care and Intercessors. 2 Corinthians 4:8-10 rings loud in my head very often because it is a testament to my life; no matter how bad things have gotten or how intense the pressure has increased, through Christ I was able to gain victory and make it through ALL! "Great Is Thy Faithfulness," is my all time favorite song. Just to know that God would never turn on me but that he will remain faithful in-spite of who I am and what I do, gives me the push to make through another day. Right now I would tell my younger self to recognize who you are and value what you bring to the table. I want everyone to know that I am a pusher! I do believe in doing what I can to help push people into their own destinies and callings. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

THE PASTOR, PRIEST AND PROPHET PASTOR BOTIWA (BO) JACKSON, IS A TRAIL BLAZER, VISIONARY, INFLUENCER, AND "BRIDGE OVER TROUBLED WATERS" BURDENED TO LEAD LOST SOULS TO SALVATION BY WAY OF WORSHIP AND THE WORD OF GOD. WIDELY KNOWN FOR HIS DYNAMIC VOCAL ABILITIES AS A RECORDING ARTIST, WORSHIP LEADER AND MINISTER OF MUSIC AND ARTS, PASTOR BO IS SKILLFUL THE ART OF WORSHIP. WITH A PASSION FOR THE WORD, PRAYER, AND WORSHIP TO EXIST IN ONE SPACE, PASTOR BO FRAMED THE FOUNDATION OF LIFE RESTORATION MINISTRIES, A MINISTRY FOR WHOSOEVER DESIRES TO HAVE A RELATIONSHIP WITH GOD. WITH A DOCTORATE DEGREE IN PASTORAL CARE AND MINISTRY, PASTOR BO HAS DEVELOPED A UNIQUE WAY OF INTERPRETING AND DELIVERING THE WORD OF GOD. HIS POWERFUL PRESENTATION, BOLD DECLARATION, AND TRUE REVELATION OF GOD'S WORD IS REACHING THE MASSES AND CAUSING A MOVEMENT OF UNCHURCHED, DECHURCHED AND IN SOME CASES OVER-CHURCHED PEOPLE TO COME ALIVE AND HAVE THEIR PASSION FOR GOD TO BE REVIVED BY TEACHING THE TRUE GOSPEL OF JESUS CHRIST.

Hello I am Elder Denise Richardson, Chief Operating Officer for LRM. I have two favorite scriptures and they both speak to the promise of the father. Jeremiah 29:11 and Isiah 41:10. My favorite song is "Praying Spirit" by Karen Clark Sheard, it settles me and my thoughts because it says “help me to say yes…yes Lord” That line reminds me that I serve the Lord and no one else. Ten years ago, I would tell myself that my concerns were not important instead focus on financial strength and maturity; make an effort to show everyone you love that you love them…daily and girl stick to your plan! I want all members (new and old) to know that we (the pastor and leaders) are human just like them.

Just because we are “leaders” and up front doesn’t mean we don’t struggle. It doesn’t mean that we don’t have bad days. It doesn’t mean that we won’t make mistakes. We are in this thing TOGETHER. The Lord created and Loves us all for his purpose not ours. Also, don’t assume you know what I am thinking by the position of my face….I am always in deep thought…LOL!! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Heyyyy, I'm Elder Stephanie Jones, Director of Education. My favorite scripture, Matthew 6:33 "Seek ye first the Kingdom of God and his righteousness and all these things will be added unto you", prompted me to seek God and taught me how to put God's word into action. The blessing was definitely in the seeking! I started by learning how to pray and reading the bible for understanding. I believe God orders our steps and brings us to places where we can experience the fullness of his power, strength, love and joy. My go-to song is "Falling In Love With Jesus". I challenge you to keep walking with him and just be faithful!

MAL

UNBREAKABLE: THE LAMB AND THE LION Presented by Elder Maurice Downing One of the strategies of the enemy is to find areas of weakness in our character and personality. The “lamb” personality trait symbolizes compassion, grace and a bit of passiveness. The “lion” personality trait symbolizes strength, might and at times it represents the “fighter mentality in us.

Oftentimes, we become lambs, when the lion is needed therefore, we are overwhelmed and underachieved. Other times we exemplify the traits of a lion in moments where we should be a lamb, therefore placing our reputation and character into question. This session will assist us in realizing that both qualities are needed in discerning which personality will aid in our daily lives.

UNBREAKABLE: THE NEW NORMAL Presented by Pastor Jay Patrick The language of a “new normal” is being deployed almost as a way to quell uncertainty regarding our present state. One thing remains abundantly clear, we cannot return to the old way of doing things. The ability to pivot and not panic will be the key component in creating a new normal that causes us to thrive instead of merely survive. This session will release creativity and innovation on the inside of you and rid you of traditions and rituals.

UNBREAKABLE: MINDSET Presented by Dr. Donyel Hill Reimagine a flawless thought pattern. Reimagine a thinking process that allows you to obtain an unbreakable mindset. Now that you are done dreaming, release your mind to understand that this is possible. Patterns and methods are all in reach of successful thinking when you realize that it is as strong as you allow your mind to think UNBREAKABLE.

UNBREAKABLE: CODE SWITCHING Youth Nation There are a lot of times that we go through difficult situations in our youth....sometimes it’s expected and other times you never see it coming. It’s easy to say how you feel especially in troubling times, but the words that come out of your mouth have power, so if you say “ I am broke” then broke you will be. If you say “I am rich” then rich you will be, it’s important to learn that when our day to day life’s changes so should our language.

UNBREAKABLE: NOT BUILT TO BREAK Presented by Prophetess Tia Buchanan Ships were built to strategically maneuver on top of the water. They are architecturally designed and built to withstand various forms of heavy precipitation…especially storms. It is imperative to note that for the ship to stay afloat, the number of outside elements (water) must be limited from overwhelming the inside, or else it will sink. Although storms create drastic changes in the ship’s mobility, the captain of the ship is trained in the navigation of the ships through the storm.

The captain is able to see obstructions in the water that could prove fatal for the ship itself, therefore the choice of the captain is vital in the durability of the ship.

UNBREAKABLE: SEX, LIES, MONEY AND VIDEOTAPE Presented by Dr. Botiwa Jackson The thief’s intentions is to break the spiritual authority of believers by using familiar sensual tactics to ensnare them. He uses SEX (the feelings we have), LIES (the language he speaks), MONEY (what we desire to have), and VIDEOTAPES (what we see and what we remember), to separate the believer from the presence of God. This session will enable us to recognize each trap the enemy sets before us so that we will avoid the tricks that contribute to the dimming of our brilliance.

UNBREAKABLE: PROSPERITY IN A PANDEMIC Presented by Pastor TJ McBride A greater abundance makes life less stressful and more satisfying. Each of us will emerge, in our own way, from this pandemic. Nevertheless, the journey to prosperity is not only an attainable goal but one that can be achieved through strategy and planning. This session is designed to awaken the financial, emotional and spiritual prosperity and abundance that lies within us.

UNBREAKABLE: CALL OF DUTY Youth Nation The enemy always has schemes planned for you, and the higher the level your on the harder schemes become.

That is why it is necessary to have on your full Armor Of God. The Belt of Truth, The Breastplate of Righteousness, Feet Fitted with the Gospel of Peace, Shield of Faith, Helmet of Salvation, and The Sword of the Spirit. With these you can stand firm in anything that the enemy has planned for, no matter what level you are on.
