Month: March 2022

It was Saturday morning and I went to the King Soopers store in the ghetto. I pulled into the parking lot but nobody was there. The only two cars that were there belonged to the employees that work there. I was sitting there and my mind began to wonder. I began to think, “Did I come to the right place? Lord, there’s nobody here but the workers.”

God said, “Just wait. Be patient.” I continued to watch then I noticed a family coming with a King Soopers cart. Another family behind them was pushing a cart also. I said to myself this has to be them. They must not live very far away from here to be pushing those carts. Soon they stopped. They had helium balloons tied to each cart. Both of the families and their kids placed their hands on the balloons and began praying over them. I quietly said, “What in the world is going on? Who would ever pray over a balloon.” I did not understand and God had not revealed anything to me yet. I continued to wait and watch as they prayed over their balloons. Soon they finished and they release their balloons into the atmosphere.

I looked up and said, “Lord, these are weird families.”

God immediately replied, “No, wait till you hear what they have to say.”

I grabbed my Bible and walked over there to greet them. I said, “Good morning! How are you guys doing?”

The families replied, “We are doing pretty well but we are needing a miracle. Both our families do. This is my brother. We are really hungry.”

I have to ask, “Why were you praying for those balloons. I watched you as you prayed over them.”

The dad said, “We have this helium bottle that we use to fill up balloons on our kids birthdays. Before we filled the balloons, we put notes in each of the balloons. On the notes it said, “Dear Lord, we need food today.” We then placed the notes in the balloons and sent them up to God. Both me and my brother anointed the balloons before we release them. We did this for our kids.”

The daughter Jasmine spoke up and said, “We thought that if we sent the balloons up to heaven that God would grab them and read the note that’s inside.”

I said, “That is a good prayer request to have God grab it. You notice that you cannot see those balloons anymore.” They began staring up into the sky trying to get a glimpse of anything. I then said “God has already grabbed them. He read your notes and He sent me here before you even sent them up.”

The families then asked, “What does that mean?” Jasmine looked at me with wide eyes and exclaimed, “Does that mean that you are the miracle?”

I said, “Yes, I am part of the miracle.”

Jasmine then replied, “But you are a human being. How can that bring us food?” Jasmine was a talker and I again explained what was happening. I said, “God hears your prayers. He is faithful. He even says that He is faithful. Second you have to know who Blue Mustang is.”

As usual the kids always wonder how a car can talk. I just wish I had a dollar for every time they asked this question I’d be very well-to-do. I then explained to her that he got his name from the Latinos and he drives a Blue Mustang. The kids replied, “That is so cool that Blue Mustang drives a Blue Mustang.” By now the families were also beginning to laugh. Now the kids were confused and asked what this Blue Mustang has to do with the miracle?”

I said, “God has put it in Blue Mustang’s heart to give $140 to each family so they could buy groceries. The money is not to be used for smokes or beer but is used entirely for families who are hungry.”

Jasmine said, “I finally get some cookies.” I then reached into my wallet and pulled out the money and gave each family $140. They began to cry. I said, “Let’s pray over this money so you can buy groceries. The families took each bill and anointed it. One of the dads anointed his hands before he anointed the bills. The other brother prayed over the money while this brother anointed the bills. I began to cry as they did this.

After they finished praying I asked, “Why did you anoint the money?” The brother said, “I want this money that Blue Mustang gave us to be anointed. It must’ve been anointed already because it came here. But we want to anoint it so that God will give him a thousandfold.”

Jasmine then asked, “Does that mean that we are anointed by God?”

Jasmine’s mom, Dorothy, said, “Yes, you are anointed by God! You belong to Him.”

One of the girl employees in the store was watching from a window as everything was going on. I could tell she was saying something. I could see her lips move with the other employees. I’m sure that she was saying that Sonny is back. When we went into the store the girls greeted us at the door. Even though the doors were automatic they wanted to make sure it looked special. They said “Welcome to King Soopers. Our store belongs to God.”

You may have problems visualizing what this store faces. Try to envision a place where a tornado has gone through and devastated the neighborhood. This store was then placed in the middle of it. Everything around it looks really bad. It is so dangerous here that you cannot even go outside at night. You need to be sent by God or you may never walk out of here alive. I even heard a lot of yelling and some shooting going on while I was talking to the families. These kids are growing up in this environment.

The girls then said, “Hi Mr. Sonny. Did you bring some more blessings to our store? ” I confirmed that I did. One of the other girls spoke up and said, “It is because of Blue Mustang and God. Sonny is just the messenger. He is the deliver and he brings blessing to the families.”

The manager then came up rubbing his hands together and said, “Yes, we get to bless more families today!” The manager then headed over to grab a grocery cart and took off.

The families started making a grocery list of the things they needed.

The girl employees then asked, “Can we see your list?” They looked over the lists and took a picture of them with their cell phones. Two of them took off but the rest of them hung around with the kids.

Jasmine grabbed my hand and we headed off to go grocery shopping. The daughter Elizabeth has not said a word all the time while I was there. She said, “This is like having Christmas. God has answered our prayer when He grabbed our balloons.”

I began thinking to myself what would it be like when those balloons came down and people would see those notes inside. We continued shopping until the families had everything they needed. When we started out to the checkout line the other two girls with the grocery carts had everything duplicated in their carts. They said, “We are buying these groceries for you.”

I am totally amazed on how these girls time after time continue to bless people. They live in an area where there is not much in the terms of finances. They take what they get and they still want to give what little they have to bless other families. After we finished paying for the groceries we all headed back outside.

Jasmine looked at me and said, “Could you get down on your knees. I want to anoint you and pray over you.”

I immediately got down on my knees. Before my knees reached the pavement I placed one of my hoodies on the ground. There is glass all over the parking lot.

She then anointed me. When she started praying she said, “Dear Lord, I pray for Blue Mustang and I also pray for Sonny to bless them a thousandfold like my mom and dad said and keep Sonny safe from all the gangs that shoot at each other.”

Man that was quite a prayer coming from a seven-year-old. She came up to me and gave me a big hug and kissed me on the nose. She then said, “You are now anointed, now go out and save the world.”

It is Saturday and my King had me go back to the King Soopers store in the ghetto. As I parked my pickup God told me to immediately get out of my pickup. I grabbed my Bible and just began walking. I had no idea where I was walking to. God then said, “Sonny, walk around the building.” There were two kids in the back. A boy and a girl were both sitting in two grocery carts. Two families were holding hands around those grocery carts praying. After the parents prayed the little boy Stephen asked to pray. His dad asked, “Are you sure you want to do that Stephen?”

Stephen said, “I have never prayed out loud before but I want to try it. I am going to start like you always do.” He paused for a moment then prayed, “Our Father who art in heaven please hear our prayer. We need a miracle. We are hungry and we need food. I am tired of eating food from the trashcan.” I immediately began crying as he said that. That just pierces ones heart when you see kids suffering like that. He continued praying and said, “I shouldn’t complain Lord because even in the trashcan you provided food for us to eat. I should not complain about that. But we still need a miracle because I need some cereal. I want some fresh milk. Could you please just answer our prayer. Father continue to help us walk by faith and not by sight. We have faith in you that you will provide in Jesus name. Amen!”

This prayer was made by a seven-year-old boy. Again, I am sure his parents are responsible for teaching him how to pray. His whole family knew how to pray. Stephen’s dad then spoke and said, “We are praying for a miracle but whatever your will is today just let it be done according to your will. We also ask this In Jesus’s name. Amen!”

Their little girl said, “My brother forgot that we were supposed to pray for cookies too.” I was about three car lengths from them when she finished praying.

One of the moms began praying and said “Whatever this man behind us has for us let us accept it with all of our hearts in Jesus name. Amen!”

What was interesting about this was her back was always toward me. She never looked at me once. But she knew that I was behind her. The Holy Spirit was prompting her. She turned around and said, “While I was praying the Holy Spirit said that there is a man standing behind me that is bringing you good news today.”

I said to myself, “That is God and that is exactly how he works.”

I replied, “First of all I want to thank the Lord for bringing me here today. Second, I want to thank God for Blue Mustang. He has a ministry to bless families just like you. He gives me money for the families but God brings me right to them. God knew your prayer even before you prayed it. He knew that you were going to be here even before you knew that you were coming here. He even knew that you would be praying over your kids in the grocery cart.”

Samuel said, “I climbed into the cart while we were praying because this is where I am supposed to be.”

I replied, “That is a powerful message. If I pray for the gang members inside my truck they will never hear me. I need to go into the park where they are at.”

Samuel then said, “You minister to gangs? Oh my goodness you are a brave man.”

I said, “It is only because of God that I am able to do this.”

Their little five year old girl then asked, “Did God tell Blue Mustang to buy us cookies.” I confirmed that it was true. She then replied, “I did not know that cars could talk.”

I said, “Blue Mustang is a man of God and we eat breakfast every Saturday morning with Terry Bird. We talk about the day. Then we pray for the coming events.”

She then said, “You meet with all the characters from Sesame Street. Is Terry Bird Big Bird’s little brother or big brother?”

I replied, “I think that he is his little brother.”

She then exclaimed, “Wow! Does he have yellow feathers too?” She then jumped out of the grocery cart into my arms where I held her and she soon fell asleep. These people were total strangers and I have never met them in my life.

Her dad then looked at me and said “She does not do that with total strangers.

His wife Martha then said, “He is not a stranger, he is part of the family of God.”

The manager then came out the back door. He had a grocery cart full of fruit they were going to throw away. The fruit was still good but it was just to the point where people wouldn’t buy it. He said “Joseph, this is your fruit. I have put it aside and this is the best stuff. The other stuff I had to throw away.”

The little girl then asked “Are there any cookies in there?”

The manager confirmed that there wasn’t. They immediately loaded the fruit into their van and came back.

One kid whose name is Isaac then asked, “How much money are we getting? Because mom said that we were going to be getting money for groceries.”

I replied, “Each family gets $140.” Isaac then covered his eyes and said, “We are millionaires.”

The manager overheard us talking and asked, “Who is Blue Mustang?”

This was a new manager as the old manager Jerome retired. I then explained to him everything about Blue Mustang.

The manager then said, “If he gives $140 to each family I am going to match that.” He then looked at the families and said “Why don’t you guys come into the store and buy some groceries? You buy whatever you need and what you want. From now on I will always make sure that you have food.”

Both families began crying after what the manager did for them. Their other little girl has not said anything to me but she came over and said, “I think that I love you. Could you be my uncle?”

I said, ” Yeah, that would be cool. What is your name?”

She replied, “My name is Susie Q”.

I repeated, “Susie Q.”

She said, “Yeah, they got my name from some song.” From then on she would not stop talking.

I then asked, “What is your favorite Bible verse?”

She replied, “Psalms 91. My grandma reads that one to me all the time.”

The families kids are being raised right even at that young age they are beginning to know the word of God. They knew how to stand in faith. They prayed in faith. They also knew that God was going to provide. One thing I’ve noticed about the people in the ghetto is they don’t have a lot, but with God they have everything. If I would’ve given one of them half of my breakfast sandwich I had this morning they would’ve been ecstatic to receive it. They are so thankful. If I would offer someone someplace else the same offer they would tell me I don’t need that.

Jerome left a legacy at that store to help families. God loves these people and he will bring.

It is Saturday and I began heading down to the King Soopers store in the ghetto. When I pulled into the parking lot I began looking around for the families. God then said, “Sonny, they are in the back.” I decided to park my pickup and just to walk back there with my Bible. When I arrived at the back of the store I noticed two families on their knees praying. They were real close to one of the dumpsters. You can tell that they had been picking some of the better fruit and vegetables out of the dumpsters. I continued listening to them pray and just waited until they were finished.

They prayed, “Lord we need food and we need groceries. We are starving and you are our provider. We rest everything on you.”

One of the small kids named Susie asked, “Mom, please ask God to give us some cereal because I want some cereal.”

The parents then continued praying and finally they said Amen. They then stood up and turned around and that is when they saw me. One family asked, “You must be a preacher because you have the word of God with you.”

I said, “Yes, I minister out on the streets.”

They then said, “You are definitely out on the streets. That’s where we are also.”

Susie then ran over to me and began hugging me. Nobody here knew me and I did not say anything else. She then said, “Thanks for being near by. We are praying for a miracle.”

I said, “You guys must be very hungry to be back here.”

They replied, “We have already dug out the good fruit and vegetables.”

As they finished explaining to me, the manager then came out and prayed with us. He then said, “From this day forth I am going to put all of the fruit in boxes so that you do not have to dig through the dumpsters.”

The manager realized he had not greeted me yet today and said, “Oh, Hi there Sonny!” The manager then walked back into the store.

Susie then said, “Could you pray for us because we need a miracle?” Both families were focused on receiving a miracle. I replied, “God is a God of miracles. He can shift things that nobody can shift. He has never left you. He hears your heart even before you speak. He knows all. Let me explain to you who God is. Do you really know him? We do not serve a little God but we serve a big God.”

The families then said, “Yes, we know God. We love him and we trust him. He told us to come back here to get the fruit that we needed and to wait for a miracle.” They already were waiting in the alley by a trashcan. They were going to wait there all day and do what ever it took.

I then said, “Well, let me tell you about Blue Mustang and the ministry that God has given him for families like you.” Of course Susie could not let that go. I explained to her that he got that nickname from the Latinos because he drives a Blue Mustang.

Susie then said, “Wow, that is so cool!” She figured it out quickly and I told her that she’s pretty smart. She then said, “Yes I know. It is all because of Jesus.”

I then asked the families if they’ve all been baptized in the Holy Spirit. Her older brother Samuel spoke up and said, “I have and I started speaking in tongues right away and it scared me and I ran out of church. My parents went out to get me and brought me back into the church. The pastor then asked me to close in prayer. When I did it I was speaking in tongues the entire time. I have no idea what I even said.”

I replied, “Samuel, that was beautiful. Jesus knew every word that you said.”

Samuel then said, “It is cool that you are here. Can I pray for you?”

I still have not given anybody any money or anything else up to this time.  We have just been talking. In this ministry God has warned me about people touching me. If someone who is demonic or has a demonic spirit in them touches me, it could transfer into my body. So I have to be very careful when someone touches me. The Holy Spirit confirmed that it would be okay for Samuel to pray for me. Samuel then found a box and brought it over by me so he could stand on it. He wanted to put his hand on top of my head. The minute he started praying he went off speaking in tongues. Samuel is really anointed. When Samuel said Amen he replied,” I do not know what I said but Jesus knows every word I spoke. It is exactly what you needed.”

I then asked Samuel if I could pray for him. I began praying for him and his family and the Holy Spirit took over and I began speaking in tongues over them. Samuel said,” I love it when other people speak in tongues because it is from heaven. That’s a heavenly language.”

One of the wives whose name was Rachel asked, “So Blue Mustang gives money to families to buy groceries.”

I confirmed that it was true.

She then said, “Do you want to see our grocery list?”

I told her that I was interested in seeing it. On that list was a loaf of bread, baloney, and cheese. That was everything on the list. I then asked, “You guys must like baloney.”

Rachel replied, “Not really but it is cheap.”

I then said, “Blue Mustang gives $140 for each family.” At that moment they all began crying.

Susie then spoke up and said, “That means we are getting cereal. Now I want to pray for you.”

She began praying for Blue Mustang that God would bless him 100 fold and bless me. She finished up by praying, “God do not let the world go hungry.” Man these kids sure do know how to pray. Their parents must be teaching them right.

The parents continued to cry because they were down to nothing. Both of the husbands work for the same company and it laid them off because they shut down completely and unemployment is running out. They were having difficulty finding jobs that would support their families. I then gave them the money and Susie asked me if I wanted to go shopping with her.

I told her that I would love to go shopping with her.

One of the girl employees came out of the door with some trash. She looked at the families and pointed at me. She asked, “Are you going to go grocery shopping now? Because I recognize that man there. That man brings miracles to this place.”

I reminded her that it was through Jesus Christ.

She then replied, “I know that!” She then invited us to come through her door to save us from walking around the store. She let us through the back of the store and grabbed a couple of carts for the families.

What was really cool about walking through the back of the store I spotted the rest of the teenagers holding hands in a circle. I feel that they were praying for us. We began shopping and Susie continued holding my hand. She would not let go the entire time.

Susie then said, “You know what is happening today, sure does help our faith. Mom always talks about having faith. She would say we need to walk by faith and not by sight.”

I then said, “You are right. This is all temporary what you are seeing. Jesus Christ is eternal.” I continue to talk with everybody as we shopped and we finally finished up. We went to check out. They started ringing up the bill for each family and when it came time to pay the teenage girls working there pull out their cards and paid for the groceries. They then looked at the families and said, “You can use that money for something else even if it is to get an ice cream cone.”

This store is amazing and I know it’s anointed but if you leave something in the back of your vehicle it will be gone before you could come back. Many times I come out of this store and I will notice guys eyeing my pickup. One guy once said, “Those are nice wheels. You should not leave it sitting here.”

I replied, “I know it is a temptation for you guys but Jesus Christ protects that truck. It is anointed by God.” You should see the expressions change on their faces. He then sheepishly replied, “I will see you around.” They then hightailed it out of there as fast as they could.”

I continued speaking with the families and reminded them that everything that happened today was from God. I am just Sonny.

Rachel then said, “No, you’re not just Sonny. You are a man of God.”

My King will be bringing me back to the ghetto.

It is Saturday and my King had me drive south of the ghetto. I arrived at what you would call the mom-and-pop grocery store. It looked like it has been here forever. God said to be here because there will be families. These families had been using a line of credit and the store will not let them proceed further.

I was sitting there and praying. There were only two cars in the parking lot. They belonged to the people who work there. Because of the size of the store I was beginning to wonder if anybody would show up. As usual God said, “Wait, they will be showing up.” So I continued to pray for these families that were going to show up. I then thanked God for the day. Soon I heard a knock on my passenger side door. I then looked in my mirror and I could see that there was a little girl standing there. I then climbed out of my pickup and went around to see what she wanted. When I made eye contact with her she said, “I just read what you have on your door. You have Isaiah 41:10 written on your door. My grandma has a plaque in her living room that has that verse on it.” She began quoting that scripture to me. She then said, “I just love that verse. Are you a preacher?”

I replied, “I minister to gangs on the streets.”

She then asked, “Can you come and pray for my parents? They need more faith.”

I told her that I would. I picked my Bible up off the seat of my pickup and brought it with me. She began walking me to the south side of the store. Her parents were sitting at a picnic table. They then asked, “Where did you go Susan?”

Susan began pointing and replied, “I saw this big monster truck over there and I wanted to go look at it. He had the scripture that grandma has in her living room on his pickup. He has Isaiah 41:10 on his pickup door. I then asked him to come here and pray with you because you need more faith.”

I then asked, “How can I pray for you guys?”

A mom reached into her purse and pulled up a piece of paper that was folded in half. She then handed it to me and said, “You can pray for that.” I knew that it was a grocery list without even opening it up. Instead of putting my hand on the list, I physically placed God’s word right on top of it. I began praying over it and the mom began to cry.

Her sister then came with her husband and two little boys. They asked, “Are you a minister? We need a miracle. We are barely making it. Right now we are living paycheck to paycheck. And sometimes we have moments like this where we cannot buy anything.”

I asked, “So both of you families are here for miracle to buy groceries? And now you don’t have any money.” I paused a bit, then said, “I want to tell you what God is doing through blue Mustang…”

One of her sons interrupted and asked, “You talk to a car! Why do you talk to a car?”

I said, “No, it’s a man. A gang called the “Latinos” gave him that nickname.” The little boy then replied, “Oh! so it’s a person that drives a blue Mustang?”

I then explained, “If God gives you a ministry and you don’t follow through with it then people won’t get blessed. I have found out that God will cause a ripple effect when you do what you are told.”

While I was talking to both families this huge 1964 Buick pulls up to us. An older couple climbed out of the car. They were the sisters parents. They said, “We stopped at both of your homes and you were not there.  We figured that you would be over here. We got our income tax back and we want to pay off your bill at the store. We know that you have a bill here and we want to pay it off.”

They then looked at me and asked, “Who is this man?”

I introduced myself and the little boy asked me to tell them about Blue Mustang. So I told them about who blue Mustang was. So the father then asked, “So Blue Mustang helps families who are hungry? He gives them money to buy groceries?”

I said, “Yes, that is why I am here.”

He then said, “These are my daughter’s. Sometimes we can help them and sometimes we cannot.”

Susan then asked, “How much are we getting blessed with?”

I replied,  “I give $140 to each family so they can buy groceries.” Both husbands started crying after I said this.

Susie exclaimed, “That means that I get to have cereal. I have been craving cereal all week long.”

One of the husbands whose name was Ishmael said, “I want to pray for Blue Mustang.” He began praying for Blue Mustang and his family. He then immediately began praying for me and the ministry that God gave me. He then prayed for his father-in-law still standing by me.

The mom said, “If Blue Mustang has a ministry like that, God is going to bless him a thousand fold.”

These people understand the blessings of God. I said, “He does it to bless other people.”

She replied, “That is true. But God sees his heart and it is beautiful.” She then prayed that God would bless Blue Mustang a thousand fold before May 7.” This is the first time I ever had somebody pray with the date in it. I then handed them the money and they began crying.

One of the other little girls then asked, “So does that mean we get to have groceries today.”

I confirmed that it was so.

She then said, “Thank you Lord and thank you Blue Mustang.” She then asked, “Do you know anybody else who has cool names?”

I replied, “Yes, there’s Terry Bird.”

She then exclaimed, “Is he related to Big Bird?”

I played along with her and said, “Yes.”

Their dad went inside to pay the bill.

The gentleman that owned the store said,  “Their bill is already paid off. I received my income tax money and God told me to invest it in families. I picked seven families to cancel their bills. Yours was one of them.”

The sisters dad then asked, “How much money did my daughter’s owe?”

The owner replied, “Between both of them they owed about $150.”

This was not a lot, but how many stores would give you any credit? The families were even more amazed that God took care of their bill. God is faithful.

Susan said, “I am going to go get the cereal.” After the families picked up the groceries they wanted we went to check out. The owner of the store began praying out loud for the families and their parents.

After we left the store we headed back to my pickup. I noticed three homeless guys standing around it. One of them looked at me and asked what does that verse say on the door?”

Before I could say a word, Susan began quoting the verse Isaiah 41:10 to them. She then asked, “Are you guys hungry?”

They confirmed they were. Immediately Susan reached into their grocery bag and pulled out the loaf of bread, peanut butter and jelly. I put my tailgate down and she climbed up on it and began making peanut butter and jelly sandwiches. The parents did nothing to stop her because they knew God well enough that it was only right to help them out. The parents stepped right in and started pouring them something to drink. They all realized the importance of giving to others.

The families were praying for a miracle and not only got blessed by Blue Mustang but the owner of the store paid off their credit so that their parents would not have to. They showed me their grocery list at the end and they only had three items on it. One small mustard, one small mayonnaise, baloney and bread. That was all they were planning on getting. Even with that small list that was impossible for them to pull off. They did not feel it was right to put more stuff on credit at this store. That is the reason why they were praying for a miracle.

The owner himself shared with me that there were 15 other people in the store who had credit. He said, “This Christmas I am going to bless them with gift cards so they can continue shopping here.” The owner definitely had a heart for people. I know that God will send me  wherever families are praying even if it is at a Mom and Pop store.
