Thank you for Your Prayers

God bless all my Church family and friends that have been praying for My wife and I, also my children - you can just imagine the heaviness and the pressure we have felt with the oregonian newspaper !!! - let me assure you there is always two sides to a story, My wife and i understand what spiritual warfare is all about - and we know that this is a direct attack of the enemy against us !!! great things are happening in our church and many people are getting saved and coming to the Lord !!

The Bible says in (1Peter 5:8) “Be sober, be vigilant because your adversary the devil walks around like a roaring lion, seeking whom he may devour” 

I can truly say that i have never experienced this scripture to be as true, as it is today in my life !!

But the bible also promises us, that the Lord will fight our battles !!  Keep praying for us - I know that the battle is not over !!!

Sincerely

Pastor Max

    Words can’t not express how we feel about the whole situation and we can’t believe the lies that the enemy use to try to knock down a servant of God like yourself ,I know is easier said than done but don’t give up Pastor ,we love you and we are with you .You taught us how to fight and now even more than ever we will fight by your side. You have done so much for us and for others to the point of going without and going through something like this sounds unfair . We just want you to know that you are our Pastor and that we love you and that you and your family are in our prayers ,you can count on us .Hold your heads up high and know that God is for you,even in the midst of what seems impossible,we know that God can do ALL things! Keep the faith Pastor and Sis Linda God Bless.

    I know how hard this has to be on you, but as you know the greater the gift the greater the trial. I for one know the gift upon your lives is great. I know that the enemy is a liar and there are huge blessings around the bend for your family and our church. I just can not wait to see the kingdom of God be glorified again and again. MY love and prayers cover you daily. God Bless

    Pastor Max,

    Even though I am new to Victory Outreach and I have only been coming for about a month, I am proud to say that this is my home church. I had not heard of this information until this morning’s service. I know that GOD will pull through for you as he always does.

    The bible says in Psalms 37: 7-17

    7 Rest in the LORD, and wait patiently for Him;
    Do not fret because of him who prospers in his way,
    Because of the man who brings wicked schemes to pass.
    8 Cease from anger, and forsake wrath;
    Do not fret—it only causes harm.

    9 For evildoers shall be cut off;
    But those who wait on the LORD,
    They shall inherit the earth.
    10 For yet a little while and the wicked shall be no more;
    Indeed, you will look carefully for his place,
    But it shall be no more.
    11 But the meek shall inherit the earth,
    And shall delight themselves in the abundance of peace.

    12 The wicked plots against the just,
    And gnashes at him with his teeth.
    13 The Lord laughs at him,
    For He sees that his day is coming.
    14 The wicked have drawn the sword
    And have bent their bow,
    To cast down the poor and needy,
    To slay those who are of upright conduct.
    15 Their sword shall enter their own heart,
    And their bows shall be broken.

    16 A little that a righteous man has
    Is better than the riches of many wicked.
    17 For the arms of the wicked shall be broken,
    But the LORD upholds the righteous.

    I will keep you and your family in my prayers. I would also like to thanks you and sister Linda for making me feel at home. our congregation is a great family and I appreciate everyone.

    God bless ,
    Syah

    I am so proud to be in the midst of such wonderful people. I feel so loved and cared for. Pastor Max and family, you are one of the strongest families I know and I love all of you. You do realize that the entire church family is holding you up in prayer and we all support you. My heart goes out to you and it hurts knowing that you are hurting. When I worked for Nat’l Missing Children, we were a 501 (c) 3 non profit. We were scrutinized daily. The smallest mistake was made into a big crime. I know how you are feeling. Stay strong and proud, you have done nothing wrong and only God can judge us. When that day comes I will be standing with my Pastor and church family as we pray for salvation for those that have done wrong, and I will be very proud to be there. God Bless you

    Pastor Max I just wanted to say to keep your head up. This church must really be a threat to Satan. From the moment I walked into this place I knew it was special. I feel like I found a treasure in the ghetto. Jesus is at Victory Outreach and I want to be where Jesus is. This isnt just any regular church and you are not just any regular pastor. You are an awesome pastor and you speak straight to our hearts. You relate to people in a very real way. I might not be perfect but I know this church is close to God. Me and my husband love coming here and I am confident to bring freinds knowing their hearts will be touched. I’ve had some crazy things happen in my life after coming to this church. I remember one time, all in about a month in a half, our engine blew out on our car, then we got a letter saying we had 60 days to move, then after moving into a new house my 5 yr son split his head open and was gushing out blood and the whole fire department was at our house, all the while my husband is having a breakdown from breaking his back 9 months prior and Im trying to get good grades in college. Ahh life is crazy but God is faithful and I thank God for Victory Outreach. The possibilities are endless.

    p.s. my son turned out to be ok and he didnt even need a cat scan.

    Pastor and Sis Linda,
    I just want to say thank you for all you do. I love you both and you and your family are in my prayers as I continue to seek God and fast for you. If I can ever do anything to lift up your arms, please don’t hesitate to let me know. God bless you my beautiful Pastors.

    Pastor Max, Sis Linda and Family,
    I wanted to start off by saying i am so very blessed to be a part of this church and ministry. i am so very grateful God brought me here 13 years ago, not only are you my pastors but you are my FAMILY. You guys mean the world to me and i love you guys with all of my heart. In my hardest time in life you guys never left my side and i am here because of that today. I count it a honor and privilage to work right along side you and sister Linda. You guys have been wonderful examples in my life. So as you face this time of spiritual attack i want to let you know i am right there with all of my armor on fighting right along side with you guys. We know God is doing Big things in our ministry right now and the enemy is mad, but with God all things are possible and if he is for us then who can be against us? You have taught us all how to fight and endure and now we are applying everything you have instilled in us to do the same..I love you very much.. vanessa

    I am truly blessed to have Pastors like you. I have been serving under you for 8 years. And it had been the best 8 years of my life. I have never had anyone who believed in me as a person as much as you do. You and Sis Linda, hold a very special place in my heart. And there is nothing that anyone can say to change that. You both are amazing leaders and display great example-ship and discipleship. I admire your courage, fight, sacrifice and love for the vision & mission of Victory Outreach.

    Pastor Max, you are a very wonderful pastor…

    When I heard the news, I was in disbelief. Right away I knew it was the attack from the enemy. The devil is threatened by a man of God. I don’t believe what the media says, because they don’t know the real you, not like we know you. God have mercy on the ones who want to try slander your name or our ministry. We are all under spiritual warfare and we are suited up for battle. Praying and Fasting, for Gods favor over you and your family, our leaders, elders, whole church, and most important the lost souls. There is going to be a GREAT victory when this battle’s is won. Nothing can stop the army of God.

    Just know the YOUTH G.A.N.G. loves you, and we are lifting you and your family up in prayer. So I pray for many, many, many blessing over you and your family.

    and for the record…THE DEVIL IS A LIAR!

    God Bless,
