Praise the LORD!!!
I am currently feeling the pressure of running a ministry and having no one believing the dream that the LORD has impressed upon me! I've basically run Vine of CHRIST Ministries for twelve years this way. Sure there were times where people made donations of items to the ministry, but these have seemed to dry up. This has really happened since I've been reaching out to a greater extent.
At first, when donations were coming in, V.C.M. was basically a prison related helps ministry, helping the families of the incarcerated. Since then it has broadened it's horizons. During the time I was helping along the gulf coast all the money and material came out of pocket. Now with the move to Texas and the dreams to build a ministry unlike anything ever before, for disaster relief, prison and general helps no one has even lifted a finger or offered help in anyway.
I know this is because satan knows that if this ministry ever does get totally functioning he'll have a big problem on his hands! I do mean big too!!! What the LORD has shown me is a ministry no much unlike the first century church, where people gave their full lives to serve HIM through it. There will be on site housing for full and part time volunteers, warehouses and distribution centers, offices; covering every aspect of the ministry's broad coverage. There is truly to much to put down here, especially without going into overt detail.
Need to say, I've a large amount of pressure on my shoulders. I'm being hosted by a local family, for a month now, and feel as if I'm just using them. Though I've been helping them out financially and physically and helping others in the area. The LORD has blessed me greatly and a lot is going to be required of in return. If you knew all that the LORD has blessed me with, in my book online, you could see that I've been highly blessed. The LORD has raise me up for this time throughout my whole life and now the pressure has begun to take it's toll.
Please pray for the ministry, myself and for those that the LORD has called to work along side me to hear HIS voice and know that it is HE that created the universes with but a word and that HE will complete that which HE has begun through me to HIS glory, honor and praise!!!
GOD bless and good day,

Father, we know Your Word says "Unless the Lord builds the house, the labourer labours in vain."
If this vision is Yours Father, we ask You to encourage Hisson and confirm it through wonderful provision of need in both financial and human support.
if it is not, Lord, or if the timing is not at hand, please show Hisson.
We ask for direction in it all, in Jesus Name
amen

Father, I ask for Your blessings upon Hisson and this ministry. If this is in accordance to Your will and Your way, then I know that many people can be reached. With this brother, I ask that You lead, guide and direct his path. I pray that all will be done to give You the glory. Allow this ministry to be a stepping stone and a successful outreach. Thank You, Lord for what You are doing. Use Hisson and the other volunteers to show Your love to those who don't know You personally. I pray for Your divine protection to those who serve You through this ministry. Bless them, Lord for being faithful unto You. In the name of Jesus Christ, I pray. Amen
