Three Gangs Against Me

It is the 1st Saturday in May. My King is having me witness to three gangs from Pueblo that are moving to take territory in Commerce City. I am to be eliminated if I interfere and I don’t even know who they are. They have heard of me from other gangs but have not visually seen me. When I arrived, two of the gangs were already there. I had homemade burritos for them along with Dr. Pepper and water. As I started to get the supplies out of my pickup, both gangs came up to me with their pistols drawn. They looked over my pickup and noticed my name on it. They said, “You must be that Sonny we have heard about. We do not I want you to tell us anything about Jesus Christ. If you even mention Jesus Christ, we are going to shoot you. We don’t want to hear his name at all. We know that you minister to gangs around here but we don’t want you to minister it to us at all.” One leader began waving his pistol at me. He then said, “Just try it and I will shoot you.”

I said, “Before you shoot me, let me pray for you guys before you shoot me. I am doing what God has asked me to do. No matter what I win because I have either done what my Father has told me to do or I get to go and see him.” The gang leader replied, “We are like pirates right now. We are doing whatever we want. We don’t care about Jesus at all. We just want to have our fun.”

I said, “That is a funny thing that you would mention that because one of these days you will see my King and you will not be able to tell him that nobody has talked to you about Jesus Christ.” I paused briefly then said, “Jesus Christ wants your heart today. He does not want them broken as they are right now.” The gang leader said, “You know nothing about our hearts.”

I said, “Your dad was an alcoholic. He used to beat you, your mom, brother and little sister up all the time. Is that true?” The gang leader said, “How do you know that?”

I said, “My King showed me this. I am sorry that this happened to you. I know that you’re broken. That’s not fun.” The gang leader asked, “What else do you know.”

I said, “I know that you walked from your family when you were 14 years old and today you’re almost 20 years old. The gang leader asked, “Who in the world is telling you all this?”

I said, “It is my God. He wants to bring healing to you.” He looked intently at me and said, “I am done talking to you.” He then left my presence to keep from getting shot by his own men. I looked toward his men and asked, “Before you shoot me, does anybody have a prayer request. I will pray for you, your family or whatever you need.” I did not have to wait long. One of the gang members came up and asked, “Can you pray for my dad? He is also an alcoholic.” I then asked, “What is his name?” He replied, “His name is Roberto.”

I said, “Let’s pray for him right now. Can you call him on the phone?” He began the process of calling home. Immediately, another gang member stepped up and asked, “Can you pray for my mom? She is not feeling well.”

I said, “Let’s call her.” He replied, “Well, normally I don’t call her more than once a month.”

I said, “Don’t you remember. You said that you’re going to shoot me. We need to call her now while I’m still alive. This is the only time she’s going to have anybody praying for her.” He said, “Okay.” and proceeded to call her. Could you imagine these gangs were here to shoot me. And now they are all beginning to ask me for prayer. His mom quickly answered the phone and he began telling her about me. She asked him to let me speak to her. He passed his phone to me. She said, “So, you are speaking to my son about Jesus Christ.”

I said, “Yes, my King loves him and has a different plan for his life than what he is doing now.” She said, “Wow Sonny! You are amazing. Do you know I am sick? I don’t know what’s wrong with me.”

I said, “My King said that you need tell the nurse to cut up a bunch of lemons and mix it in a glass of water. God has shown me that that there is something wrong with your stomach. Am I right?” She said, “Yes and I cannot use the bathroom. But the nurses will never allow me to do that.” There was a Christian nurse standing right by her at that time. Since the phone was on speaker, the nurse heard everything that I was saying. She said, “I will do it.” so she proceeded to do as I requested. They were about to put some machine down her to try to fix the problem. Soon the nurse brought the lemon water concoction to her that I requested. She consumed the whole glass. The nurse said, “I have to go now. They want to run more tests.” After the nurse left, I said, “I am going to pray for you and I want you to expect a miracle.”

I then hung up and talked to the gang members father Roberto. I then finished the call by praying with him over the phone. Roberto said, “Are you actually talking to my son about Jesus Christ?” I said, “Yes I am.” Roberto asked, “Did he tell you that I was an alcoholic?”

I said, “Yes. My King can deliver you from that bondage. He can set you free.” Roberto asked, “Where are you guys at?”

I said, “We are in the park over here by Commerce City.” Roberto said, “I will be right there.” Then his son said, “Are you really coming here Dad.” Roberto said, “I want to meet this guy. I want to have him pray for me in person.” Just as Thomas had to see the nail marks in Jesus’s hands, some people have to see me to believe it is real. Which is okay even for me. After these prayer events happened, they all started opening up. One said, “Can you pray for my grandma? She is very sick.” Another one asked, “Pray for my parents because they are mad at me for running away.” I began praying for all of them every one of them had an issue that needed to be prayed for.

About this time the third gang showed up. Their plan was to combine forces and take over the entire East Side. If they would have combined, the gang would consist of 62 men. The leader of the third gang asked, “What’s going on.” The other gangs introduce me and began telling them what they were doing. The leader asked, “Why have you not shot him by now.” They replied, “He just asked if he could pray for all of us and our families before we shot him.” In disbelief, the gang leader looked at me intently and said, “You’re going to pray for all of us before we shoot you.”

I said, “I am doing what I was supposed to do. Do you have anything that you want me to pray about for you?” That gang leader paused then asked, “I lost my dad five years ago and my mom is all messed up. She is on drugs and it’s taking a toll on her. I don’t even want to be around her.”

I said, “We should call her and talk to her.” He then silently left for a minute and came back with her connected. I asked him, “What is her name?” He said, “Rosalinda.” I took his phone and said, “Rosalinda, I want to pray for you.” She replied, “Why do you want to pray for me?”

I said, “Jesus wants to heal your heart.” She immediately began to cry. I prayed and handed the phone back to the gang leader. He must have talked to his mom for 30 minutes until she decided to come to us. Soon she arrived at the park along with Roberto. I begin to notice that all the gang members were on their phones. I began to realize if they were all calling people they knew so that I could pray for them. It all started out that the three gangs were here to kill me and now they’re bringing their families and the people they care about to me to pray for them. I began praising God as all kinds of people started showing up. I have no idea how many people were here at this time. Even up to this special moment, many of the gang members still had their pistols on me. But as more and more of family members showed up they began to put their pistols away. I asked what needs that everyone needed me to pray for. Most of the parents requested that they just wanted their sons back. I said, “I am praying that Jesus Christ will do that.” As the Holy Spirit began to move, almost everybody in those three gangs were beginning to cry. Because the crowd was so large I had to stand in the back of my truck in order to talk to everyone. I asked anyone that wanted their names written in the Lamb’s Book of Life to come over here. I immediately read John 3:16 and Jeremiah 29:11 to them because it talks about their future. They all raise their hands and came forward. This is the largest group of gang members here in Colorado that I’ve ever witnessed to that gave their hearts to Jesus Christ. I have seen larger ones in other cities but those gangs we’re already set up to be there. There definitely was a lot of crying going on. What was interesting about this is that almost all the parents of the boys lived in Denver. Almost every one of them ran away from home and headed to Pueblo.

Later this afternoon the mom of the first gang leader called and said, “After I drink that lemon water everything opened up in my system. I am now back to normal. That acid in the lemon did something and I told everyone to get out of the way. I need to go to the restroom bad. The doctors began telling me that they found out I ate a piece of steak and swallowed that hard piece that it got lodged someplace and the acid from the lemons loosened it up to the point where I could go to the restroom again.” This is the second time that my King has used this method to do a healing. We all know he’s powerful enough to heal anyone who has a problem without using lemons but we serve a creative God. She was released to go home the next day. It was getting late and I told everyone that I would be back tomorrow afternoon to talk to everybody here again. I knew there were a lot more questions that needed to be answered.

Sunday, I went back down to talk to the gangs again. They even brought more aunts and uncles with them. I was kept busy this afternoon praying and talking to everyone there. Their biggest request was “Families in conflict. We always seem to fight as families.” They wanted to be released from that and to be able to live a life together in harmony. They said, “We are families and we want this type of behavior to stop.” I began turning this request over to our King.

While I was praying and talking about Jesus Christ to everybody, I noticed that three food trucks showed up. I said to myself that this is what is considered a dangerous part of the city and this is not normal for those guys to show up here. I found out later that the parents from the previous day requested that these guys show up to make burritos for everybody because they knew that there would be a large crowd here today. The food truck drivers were curious and asked, “What is going on here?”

I said, “All of these people here have given their lives to Jesus Christ.” One of the drivers replied, “I have been running from God for a long time and I am tired of this. I just don’t know what to do.” I said, “You have come to the right place because Jesus loves you right where you are at. Your family may have abandoned you. But your King will never abandon you because he loves you.” He said, “I do not know why I am crying but I need for you to pray for me.” He began turning his heart to Jesus Christ. The other two drivers came over and asked, “Why are you crying, Essay.” He said, “I have rededicated my life over to Jesus Christ again. I am tired of running from God.” The other drivers asked, “Is it really that easy to accept Jesus Christ? I have done a lot of bad things. In fact, I am still doing bad things.” I said, “You need just to ask forgiveness of your sins and turn your heart and your life over to Jesus Christ.” One of the men said, “I’m ready to give it a try.” Soon both of them were giving their hearts and life over to Jesus Christ.

I am sure glad that I did what my King told me to do because many gave their lives over to Jesus this weekend. My King gets the Glory and the Victory and I got to see it all.

Easiest Gang Ever

My King had me go see a new gang today. The undercover police said, “There is a new gang of 15 from Dallas Texas. They have been hanging around the park each day even when it is very cold. We feel they have no money or a place to stay and have not seen any girls with them.”

I replied, “My King wants me to see them this weekend.” My King wanted me to take them homemade burritos so I purchased ingredients for the undercover women to give them time to make the burritos.  They had them freshly made by 10am Saturday.  I took the breakfast burritos, Dr. Pepper and water to the park where they were hanging out. I pulled up and parked behind their cars. Because of the temperature, they were just sitting in their cars. When I stepped out of my pickup, the gang also stepped out of their cars with pistols drawn. The leaders said, “What do you want?”

With all their pistols still trained on me,  I said,  “I am here for your hearts. ” They looked at me strangely and said, “My heart! What are you talking about?”

I replied, “I have come here to bring Jesus Christ to you guys.” They said, “Dude, who are you?”

I said, “I am Sonny. I minister to all the gangs here in this town.” They then asked,  “You are a minister then?”

I said, “Only when I’m awake. When I’m asleep, I’ve got to rest.”  He said, “Do you have something…?” I interrupted him and said, “Yes I do.” He then said, “How do you know even know what I was going to say?”

I said,  “God told me you guys are hungry. I brought food.” He replied, “What did you bring? ” They still have their pistols trained on me.

I said, “I brought breakfast burritos for you guys. Blue Mustang helped me to get this food to you guys. He’s just a guy that is big part of this ministry.” The leader said,  “It sounds like he is a cool dude. We definitely are hungry.”  I laid everything out on the tailgate. It was too cold to eat outside but this gang had no place to stay.  The burritos are still hot to compensate for the cold. They started eating but I said, “We need to pray over God’s blessings,  that’s the rule.” After praying over breakfast,  they began eating the three dozen burritos I put front of them. I had a total of 12 dozen in my pickup but the rest were for other gangs. While they ate, I went back to my pickup to get my Bible. When the last of burritos were eaten, I began reading John 3:16 to them. The leader began crying when I finished reading.  The rest of his men looked at him and said, “What are you doing? We don’t cry here. What’s the deal.”

The leader said, “My grandma used to read that verse to me all the time. I know it by heart.” His gang said, “You do! What does that verse mean.” From here on the leader took over. He replied, “Jesus came to Earth for us. He died for us because of the love he had for you and me. He wants our names to be written in the Lambs Book of Life. All we have to do is ask Jesus to forgive the bad things we have done and give our hearts to him. My grandma and grandpa told me other great things about Jesus Christ. I also remembered them telling me that a stranger like this guy would come some day and read this same verse over me. They also warned me that it would be the last time anyone would talk to me about Jesus Christ again.”  His men then asked, “We have been a gang for 3 years and you never mentioned any of this to us.” The leader replied, “I was stubborn and never taken their words seriously. I wanted to do things my way.  After seeing all that has taken place,  I am ready to give my life to Jesus Christ now. If this guy is that brave to tell us about Jesus Christ while holding pistols on him,  I’m ready to surrender everything to him.”  The leader then said, “Sonny is not going to hurt us. Put your pistols down.”

The leader looked at me and asked, “How long have you been a Christian.” I replied, “I have been a Christian long enough to know that God is real.” His men then asked, “Is it really easy to ask Jesus Christ into your life.”  The leader took over the conversation and said, “Men it really is that easy. All you do is have to ask for forgiveness of your sins and ask Jesus to to enter into your hearts.” The leader was witnessing to his own gang. He thoroughly understood the concept of how to give your heart to Jesus Christ and the forgiveness of sins. The leader then said, “I want my name written in the Lamb’s Book of Life.  I’m done with this life. We are going back to Texas to my family.” He then turned to his men and asked them the same question, “Do you want your names written in the Lamb’s Book of Life?”  They began thinking about how nice it would be to go home to family.  The leader then looked at me and said, “I want to give my life to Jesus Christ in front of my men because we have been a gang for three years.” The leader then looked at his men and said, “It would be great if you would give your hearts to Jesus but if you decide not to you have my blessing either way. His men then asked, “Are we going to be a gang anymore?” The leader paused then said, “We are going to be a gang representing Jesus Christ.” After that,  everyone accepted Jesus Christ. They all began calling home to talk to their families in Texas. There was a lot of crying going on as they communicated with their families.  Almost all of his men had families who are Christians. They have all been praying for this day that is probably the reason why it was so easy for me to talk to this gang and convince them to give their lives to Jesus Christ. My King gets the Glory and Victory.

The Lord was working on their hearts before I got there to talk to them.  They begin sharing with me they’ve been here for three days and nothing seemed to be going quite right. They were running out of money. They were not sure what they needed to do. My King wanted to continue to bless them and said, “Sonny,  I want you to fill their cars with fuel. Use your credit card to fill their cars.” I then said, “Guys let’s go to Costco.  I want to fill all your car with gas before you go home.” I lined all the cars up at one pump and filled them one at a time. They were ecstatic to have there car all gassed up. My King asked me to give the rest of the food I had to them. I then said, “I have nine dozen burritos in my pickup. You can take them home so you have something to eat on your way back.” I called my informers and told him what I was going to do and they said, “That’s okay. We’ll just make more burritos for you.” The leader came to me and said, “I only need three dozen burritos. I was planning on getting cheeseburgers for lunch and pizza for supper for my men. So three dozen burritos will be enough.” They did take all my pop and water and put it in their coolers which were completely empty. I then remembered I had a big box of Costco chips that I gave that to them also. They were so perplexed. They again asked the question, “Who are you?”  I again replied, “I’m just Sonny.  I know Jesus Christ and when he said give it all, I was going to give it all to you guys.” One of the gang members said, “You are like Santa Claus but a Christian one.” I smiled and continued praying for them all as their families continued calling all of them. I was listening to the leader talking to his uncle on speaker. His uncle said, “I heard that you became a Christian.  I have a job for you here in Texas as a roofer. It will help you get your on your feet.” God was already starting to bless him before he even got home. This was the easiest gang that I reached for Jesus Christ. But I will not forget who prepared their hearts for me. I am only the messenger.  The Holy Spirit knows our hearts better then anyone.

Serving Thanksgiving to Seven Gangs

It was a week before Thanksgiving and my King said, “Sonny, let us do something for the gangs. Last year we did it before Thanksgiving but I want to do it on Thanksgiving. That day has many special memories for many of the gang members. I have seven different gangs that I want you to bring meals to. You will go to each gangs home to serve them.” I told the undercover police what my King said and you should have seen all the volunteers that’s stepped up to help me make meals. I probably would have bought turkey meals at Kentucky Fried Chicken but they all said “No.This one is going to be on us. We don’t want Blue Mustang to have to spend anything on these meals.” Almost all the gangs have 25 or more people in them. So it required two turkeys, lots of stuffing, mashed potatoes and the works. Based upon the nationality of some of the undercover police, there were variations added. There was an African American Girl who wanted to make cornbread. Somebody from an Italian background wanted to use French bread with garlic to serve with the meals. So there were many variations for these gangs to have with their meals.

Since I only had a couple hours to serve all seven gangs, we used vans to haul food from each home to my pickup. We had a time schedule that we kept so when I got ready to go to the next gang the next van was all loaded with food. All I had to do was transfer it to my pickup and head to the next gang. The gang’s all know my pickup truck and they do not tolerate any strange vehicles coming into their vicinity. It was important to have the food in a vehicle they recognized. The first three gangs that I went to knew me the best. I did not spend a lot of time with any of them. When I showed up to their homes, my King always had me be quiet about the food. He asked me to tell them that Jesus loves them and to pray for them. Then after you finish praying for them, let them know that you have a Thanksgiving feast out in your pickup. It was amazing that when I mentioned food, the guns went down immediately. Their leaders said go out and help Sonny bring the food in. The first three gangs knew me pretty well so they treated me kindly as I came to pray for them and then surprise them with the food. The fourth and fifth gang had weapons on me and pushed me around. I told them that Jesus Christ loved them and prayed for the gang and finished up telling them I have a Thanksgiving meal for them.

The sixth gang greeted me with shotguns at the door. Like all the gangs, they always said, “Sonny, we don’t want to hear anything about Jesus Christ. If you do say anything about him, we’re going to shoot you now.” My response is always, “Before you shoot me please let me pray for you before you do.” They always allow me to pray for them. This is because my King has already prepared their hearts for me before I ever get there. After I finished up praying, I said, “Today is Thanksgiving and I have a meal out in my pickup to feed you guys.” Of course, when I mentioned food for them, they too lost interest in shooting me and put their weapons down. Their leader told the gang to get out there and help him bring that food in. The last gang was really different. All of their men were carrying automatic weapons. The last two gangs were considered the meanest gangs in Denver but as I was about to find out that the last two gangs would become more acceptable to the message of Jesus Christ. My King was having me return to all of them tomorrow.

My King used Thanksgiving day to plant seed in the lives of these seven gangs. I could see it while I was serving Thanksgiving dinner. I could see gang members cry as I served them. They were thinking about that time that they had with their families in past Thanksgivings. Friday, my King had me talk to all seven gangs again. I went in the same order as I did on Thanksgiving day. He told me to bring donuts to feed the gangs. I spent approximately two hours with each gang to talk more about Jesus Christ. The Holy Spirit was working in their hearts during the Thanksgiving feast to prepare them for today. 42 gang members from seven gangs gave their life to Jesus Christ. Many of those that gave their life to Jesus Christ Friday were those that were crying during the Thanksgiving celebration the day before. My King is not satisfied with that number so he had me go back again on Saturday.

Saturday morning my King had me get more breakfast food for the first three gangs. I served them breakfast again and talked more about the Jesus Christ with them. When it came time meet the fourth and fifth gangs it was getting closer to lunch time. My King told me to feed tacos to gangs four and five. I was driving off to Taco Bell to get the tacos. As I was driving by one of those taco trucks, my King said, “I want you to stop and get forty tacos from that taco truck.” I slowed down and approached the truck. The guy in the truck noticed my sweatshirt talking about Jesus and gangs. He asked me what it meant. I said, ” It represents my ministry. My mission is to reach gangs here in Denver and cities across the United States where my King sends me. I tell them about the love of Jesus Christ that he has for them and pray for their salvation.” I then introduced myself to him.

He replied, “I too was once a gang member, a long time ago. Somebody like you came to me when I lived in California and shared the love of Jesus Christ to me. I then gave my heart to Jesus Christ. God had me start this taco business.” He proceeded to show me the inside of his van. I walked with him towards the back where the cooking area was. I looked at the back wall and noticed that there were three crosses hanging on it. It was pretty cool how he had things set up. Pedro and Maria were the husband and wife that owned the van. Pedro called it the “Taco Van” but his wife called it the “Taco’s for Heaven Van”. They go into some pretty dark areas to feed people. They only charge $1 for a huge taco. His relatives pay for all the supplies in the van to enable him to do this ministry. He feeds people who do not have a lot of money. He likes to be able to share Jesus Christ with these people while feeding them. I then ordered 40 tacos from him. I asked, “How much do I owe you for the tacos?”

He said, “Sonny, since you are honoring our King by bringing Jesus Christ to gangs, there is no charge. I remember what it was like before I was saved. I want to help bring Jesus Christ to them.” I put the tacos in warmers to keep them hot for both gangs. I wanted to go to Taco Bell to save money but my King took me to a place where the owner wanted served Jesus Christ by furnishing the tacos. They were like eating homemade tacos. He made them the way the gangs liked them. I have been noticing lately that my King is wanting to serve more homemade foods to the gangs and people, like Pedro, are providing home cooked food out of their budget. That shows how much my King and people love them by wanting to give them the best. I prayed with him and thanked him for the tacos. 

I then went to serve gang four. They welcomed the food but my King still needs to do more work on their hearts. I have planted more seeds into their hearts today on top of the ones I planted yesterday.  They were still not ready to give their hearts to Jesus Christ. From here, I left to serve gang five.

With all the love my King has shown gang five up till this moment and their missing out on family this holiday, it was to much for them. The whole gang wanted to turn their hearts over to Jesus Christ. They asked Jesus Christ to forgive them all their sins from all the things they have done. They then asked him to come into their hearts. I prayed for them while they called home to rejoin their families. It was fantastic to see this whole gang turn their lives over to Jesus Christ. Until they all went home, they continued to talk about their new found freedom and asked questions about Jesus Christ. My King gets the Glory in the Victory.

My King knew that I was late in the afternoon when I was done sharing with gang five. He told me the last two gangs would rather have snacks. I still had lots of water and pop with me. I proceeded to Cosco to get chips, granola bars and candy bars to take to them. I headed off to meet with the leader of the sixth gang. They enjoyed the stacks that I brought and thoroughly enjoyed to them. I again prayed for them and told them about how much Jesus Christ love them but they were still not ready to give their lives up for Jesus Christ, yet. I then went to the serve gang seven. The snacks I brought them they thoroughly enjoyed. But the Holy Spirit had their hearts ready for me. After they finish their snacks, they said, “Sonny, we want to give our lives over to Jesus Christ,. They too asked for Jesus to forgive them of all the bad things they’ve done in their past. They then asked for Jesus to come into their hearts. Both gangs five and seven gave all their hearts to Jesus Christ that Saturday. My King gets the Glory and the Victory. I was about to hear from gang six this evening.

The leader of the sixth gang called me later that night and had questions about Jesus Christ but did not want to discuss it over the phone. I told him I would be there. I was not sure if it was a test because he did not want to speak over the phone or if he thought it was bugged. It did not matter to me. The most important thing was to make sure that his name is written in the Lamb’s Book of Life. I made it arrangements to meet him on Sunday.

I left for Denver on Sunday morning to go to the gang leaders home. The leader invited me inside. I found out why he wanted to speak to me in person. The whole gang was there and they were all wanting to ask questions about Jesus Christ. I spent several hours answering their questions and praying for them. As the discussion ensued, I noticed family members starting to come in. They were already planning to give their hearts to Jesus Christ but this moment was so special for them that they wanted to share it in front of their families. I then asked those who wanted to give their hearts to Jesus Christ to come over to me to pray for them. They all came over to me and they all gave their hearts to Jesus Christ.

I got to think about how sad it is that we do not enjoy coming to Jesus Christ like this gang did. When Jesus comes into our life he releases us from bondage of sin where we discover that New Freedom in Christ. Shouldn’t we be as excited about what Jesus did for us as this gang discovered. Jesus is the groom and we are his bride and coming together should be as exciting a man and a woman coming together in a marriage ceremony. He should be treated in the same manner because he has done much more than any groom can do for his bride. Let living for Jesus Christ be an exciting time of our lives.

I spent my whole Thanksgiving weekend with these guys and I loved every minute of it. I would give up my Thanksgiving weekend again to be able to serve my King and to make a difference in other gangs that he would send to me next year. My King gets the the Glory and the the Victory.

Human Trafficking Busted for Jesus

It is Thursday night and I was getting ready to go to the highway Patrolmen Bible study. My King said, “Sonny, take your best suit and your good shoes with you. Again I did not see the picture my King saw. I should have been excited that my King was going to do something tonight with that was important. Instead, I said to myself, “I don’t wear a suit while doing the Bible studies and ministries on the street. Other than being uncomfortable, people might think it strange seeing me wearing a suit.” I did not question my King’s request anymore. I proceeded put my suit and my good shoes in my pickup and headed off to Denver.

When I started the highway patrol in Bible study, I said, “My King requested me to bring my suit down here tonight. It is in my pickup right now and have not been given reason for bringing it here.” As I kept talking to them, Fourteen undercover cops came into the room. They said, “Sonny, we I need to talk to you privately.”

I said, ” You know these guys in this room. Whatever you can say to me can be said in front of them.”

They then said, “The head guy of the highway patrol recommended you to us. We need a volunteer to play a part in a sting. Your job would be in to deliver a suitcase of cash to the organization that is trying to sell 52 kids. The bust is going down in two hours.” The reason why none of that undercover police wanted to do this was the fact that either they will have to quit their job or they will have to move to another state.  This type of undercover work makes it so you never will be involved in field work again.  You have a good chance of being recognized in future projects.  Earlier in the day, the Holy Spirit revealed to the head man of the highway patrol to ask me to do this job. He knows me really well and has seen me face drug cartels. My King hates the abortion that’s going on in America and human trafficking is next on his list for things he hates. My King gave me permission to do it.

I said, “I will do it.” The highways patrolmen were encouraging me to go for it. I had Steve take over the Bible study for me.

They then said, “This is great but we only have an hour to get you a suit that fits.”

I said, “Don’t worry about that. My King had me put my suit in the pickup.” They all looked at me dumbfounded when I told them I already had my suit with me. One of these days they will not be surprised when my King prepares for an upcoming event that I do not even know about myself. He has been revealing himself to these guys many times through me. They had people there that can make you look like anyone. I needed to look the part. After they finish with me, I looked like one tough dude. They put me in a nice Cadillac and they gave me four men as my body guards. They were all built like Arnold Schwarzenegger in his prime. They would be the ones that would be handling the money. We drove the Cadillac to where the bust was to go down on Colfax Avenue. When we stopped, my King had me put my sunglasses on. He was certain that I would become emotional when I saw the kids in the condition that they had them in. With the sunglasses on, I got out of the car with my body guards. I noticed that guns were not drawn on either side. The leader said, “What’s up with the sunglasses?”

I sternly said, “It is none of your business.”

The leader said, “I like to see the eyes of those who I do business with.”

I sternly replied, “My eyes want to see the merchandise before I do business with someone.” My bodyguards held the cash until I signaled for it. The leader waved me towards the kids. There were boys and girls between the ages of 11 and 18. Most were kidnapped from the streets but some were homeless. Most of them looked older than then there actual age. Traffickers look for good looking children. They bring a lot more money. They were semi drugged to keep them compliant. I tried to focus on my anger with the traffickers for what they did to these children. Compassion for these children would be a dead give away to them. I was fairly far away from the leader and whispered to the kids to drop when signaled. Somebody undercover in the organization had the kids prepared for this moment. I later found out that all their parents were notified earlier to come get their kids after the bust. I continue to inspect all the kids like I was trying to buy livestock. After I inspected the last kid, I began walking back to the leader. I began to feel like I was being watched and I was about to look up. My King said, “Keep your eyes down.” When I got near the leader, I signaled my body guards to bring the suit case. I then said, “I will take them”. The bodyguards handed over the closed suitcase to the leader. The leader put the suitcase down on the car and opened the suitcase. The minute he did that, 18 undercover cops drop from the ceiling carrying automatic weapons that I have never seen before. We were all told to freeze. No one fired a single shot. My King had everything running smoothly.

All of us were arrested for taking part in this bust. They threw me on the ground and got my suit dirty. They proceeded to put me in handcuffs. They did the same thing to my bodyguards. We had to make sure that no suspicions were aroused. We were put in different vehicles then the other organization. We bumped fists as they locked us up. One of my bodyguards said, “You were just like Al Capone. It is like you have done this before.”

I said, “My King gave me the words to speak. He gets the Glory and Victory.” The bust took place in the building owned by the traffickers. The owner is going to lose everything for what he has done. After the traffickers were hauled off, they released us. They had a greyhound bus come for them. I rode with them to talk with them. I walking back and forth praying with all of them. They were talking about how they felt as they were being rescued. I shared with them who I was and I shared with them that Jesus Christ loved them very much and wanted to get them out of this situation. As I continued praying for them, my King said, “Sonny, make arrangements to baptize them.”

We went to a safe place where the parents were already waiting for them. I immediately told the undercover police that I need a swimming pool to baptize the kids. They immediately located pool for me to use. The children all found there parents and began hugging them. I prayed with the parents also. Both the parents and the kids gave there hearts to Jesus Christ here. I said, “Now we need to get everyone baptized.” My prayer team helped to comfort them and helped me baptize all of them it took about an hour and half. I spent the rest of the night answering questions, praying and comforting people. There was a lot of joyfull crying going on. It was so cool seeing the parents reunite with their kids. I did not get any sleep that night. I left for work and arrived 40 minutes before I was supposed to start. I am running on King energy. This is an experience that I will always remember. I am honored that my King included me in this event. On the outcome of what happened, he gets the Glory and the Victory. I too will never be able to do this again because of my chance of being recognized.

Longest Red Light Ever

I prayed with the undercover police on Friday night. After I was finished, my King had me go out and witness on the street. My King has me spending a lot of time doing street ministry on Colfax Avenue. When I reached University and Colfax in Denver, the light changed red. I stopped for the light. There was a guy standing on the street corner. He came running out towards me with a pistol and placed the gun barrel against my window. I noticed that the other people who were stopped at the light just took off and ran the light. He was shouting something but I could not make out what he was saying. I rolled my window down and asked, “What do you need?”

He said, “Get out of your pickup. I want to shoot you.” This is not the first time something like this has happened. Looking back, some guy with a sawed-off shotgun made the same request. I just humored him and noticed the square cut. I said, “Did you cut that barrel off yourself?” He said, “Yes I did. I used a hacksaw.” I said, “Man, you did a good job of cutting it square using just a hacksaw.” In the process of telling on how good a work he did, he kind of lost interest in shooting me. So I am experienced with this kind of behavior on the streets.

I said, “Well, before you shoot me can I pray for you? After I pray for you, then you can shoot me.” I caught him off guard but he did let me pray for him. I began to pray for him and reveal the things that the Holy Spirit shared with me about his life. After I finished praying, I said, “Okay, now you can shoot me.” He just stared at me. Then all the sudden, he just dropped his pistol.

He said, “I can’t shoot you especially after what you just did for me.” He continued to looked at me. He then said, ” I cannot believe how cool you were when I was holding the pistol and threatening your life.”

I said, “My King determines what day I’m going to die. You cannot change that. If he allowed you to kill me, I do know where I’m going and I am going to live in his kingdom. My King brought you to me tonight. He loves you very much and wants your heart” I found out that his name was Luke. Luke has been on the street for three and a half years. He has been robbing and stealing whatever it takes to make any money. I can tell Luke hasn’t been near a shower for a long time because he really did smell bad.

Luke asked, “Do you have anything to drink?” I had stopped at a convenience store to picked up a large Coke for myself earlier.

I said, ” I have a Coke that you can have. I also have a couple of burritos if you are hungry.”

Luke said, “The Coke will be fine and I am hungry. ” As Luke begins eating the burritos and drinking the Coke, he asked, “Do you think my parents would let me come back home?”

I said, “Let’s just call them.” I gave him my cell phone to use so he could dial his parents. His dad answered the phone and Luke said, “This is Luke Dad. I’m wondering if I can come home.” He briefly told his parents what he just done. I could hear his Dad shout to Luke’s Mom that Luke was on the phone. Luke’s parents were ecstatic that their son was coming home. Luke asked me if I would take him home. I agreed that I would. When Luke climbed into my pickup, the light turned green. It gave me the time I needed to witness to Luke. It really smelled bad inside my pickup. My King gave me the endurance to make the trip to his house. Even as Luke left my pickup, my King began deodorizing my pickup. We both went into his home where the parents hugged him. He unloaded his pistol and gave it to his Dad.  His mom immediately went to get a towel for Luke. He smiled and immediately grabbed the towel to take a shower. I talked with the parents about who I was while he was showering. They revealed to me that they were both Christians and that they have been praying fervently for their son Luke to come back. When he came back into the room, I prayed for the family and talked more about how awesome our King is. My King gets the the Glory and the the Victory.

Black Mafia Rioting Adverted

Last Saturday and I was down to Denver, I crossed paths with the Black Mafia who were carrying clubs, crobars and guns. I found out they were going to join a protest where seven blocks were marked off for these guys to demonstrate. I said to myself, “This can’t be a peaceful demonstration if they’re carrying all this weaponry. It was hard to believe that law enforcement was ordered to set up a route where these guys could go out and destroy property. Jesus did say that in the end times; evil will become good and good will be evil. Only a life under Jesus Christ will change this thinking.” But they were not going to have a chance to complete their mission. My King said, “Sonny, go and pray for those guys. Tell them how much I love them. I want their hearts.” As I got close, some of guys drew their pistols on me. The others readied themselves to give me a beating if necessary. The leader asked, “What do you want?”

I replied, “My King wants me to pray for you guys.”

The leaders said, “Get out of our way. We are too busy right now. I think we will shoot you now.”

I said, “Before you shoot me, give me the opportunity to pray for each one of you.” They let me pray for them. I started praying for all of them. I didn’t realize it but while this was going on, the Latinos were watching me closely from a distance. They still had their pistols drawn towards me but they let me pray for everyone. Nearing the end of praying, the Latinos surrounded us with their Mustangs. They all got out of their cars with their pistols drawn. Lorenzo, the Latino leader, said, “If you guys do anything to hurt Sonny we’re going to shoot you here right now on the spot.” He then looked at me and said, “Sonny, how are you doing?”

I said, “I am fine. I am just witnessing and praying for these guys.” Lorenzo looked away from me and noticed that they were carrying “Black Lives Matter” signs. While he was holding his 9mm Beretta on the black leader, Lorenzo said, “Don’t you guys know that All Lives Matter to God. Let me read John 3:16 to you. It says ‘God so loved the world that he gave his only Son to everyone.’ Boys, pick up all those Black Lives Matter signs and put them in your cars. We are going to destroy them.” It was interesting to watch him in action. He did not even have a Bible on him but he was reading John 3:16 from memory. I do not think that everyone should witness to people using a 9 mm Beretta. But he was getting that message across to these guys, that what they were doing was wrong. The Black Mafia took their weapons and did a 180 degree turn, leaving the area. They lost interest in partaking in the demonstration. I am sure that they are all looking at each other wondering what just happened. I am praying that I planted a seed in their lives, that they too will come to know Jesus Christ later. I always enjoy it when the Latinos come to assist me.

All because of a haircut, the Latinos have began to turn their lives around. Lorenzo told me the first time we met that in order for me to talk to him I would have to get a haircut that looked like his. So, I found a barber in Denver that would give me a haircut like his. When I showed up with the haircut, he said, “That cut looks good on you. Man, you must have respect for me to do that. I will let you talk to me.” From that time on, I started sharing Jesus Christ with his gang. They do listen to what I say. I can see the change in their lives. They still have not turned their lives over to Jesus Christ. God is still using them to watch over and protect me. Lorenzo and his gang have a special place in my heart. I pray to my King that all his men will not die until they receive Jesus Christ into their hearts and that their names will be written in the Lamb’s Book of Life.

I was about ready to sign them off on this story but I was witnessing to gangs at the park this Saturday, which is Labor Day weekend. The Black Mafia that was chased off last Saturday showed up in their black Cadillacs. They got out of their cars and started coming towards me. The Latinos immediately surrounded them with their Mustangs. They jumped out of their cars with their weapons drawn. Lorenzo said, “If think you are to harm Sonny, we are going to end it all here now.” Two other gangs that wanted to protect me also showed up at the same time.

The Black Mafia said, “No, we do not want any trouble. We want to apologize to Sonny and to say how sorry we are for the way we treated him last week. We were thinking about how powerful his prayers were for us. All of us have decided that we are not going to do any more rioting and we’re going home to our families.” None of the Black Mafia gave their lives to Jesus Christ today but I know the Holy Spirit is working on their hearts. I wouldn’t be surprised if I hear from within the year that they have accepted Jesus Christ. In all the years I’ve been doing this ministry I have never seen the gangs stand up for me to protect me. I feel that my King is using their lives to watch over me. It feels great to see the same gangs that were persecuting me in the beginning now standing up for me. It is an amazing feeling. My King never ceases to amaze me on how many different ways he works in people’s lives.

Saving Four Dallas Gangs

I was told by my Dallas Texas informers that there was a gang looking for me. This is a difficult gang that the Dallas boy’s, Hector and Victor, have been witnessing to for a couple years. The Dallas boys are men I witnessed to a couple years ago in Denver. They went back home to Dallas and wanted to reach the gangs in their city for Jesus Christ. Hector and Victor have not been able to crack these guys. They have continually resisted accepting Jesus Christ. The gang told Hector and Victor that they wanted to meet me so we can put a hurt on him. They did not like what I did to Hector and Victor. Two weeks ago, with my King’s approval, I left for Dallas to meet their meanest gang. Their leader wasn’t there because he was with his sick grandmother. When I walked up to them, they asked, “What are you doing?”

I said, “I came to tell you that Jesus Christ loves you guys. Jesus Christ also wants your hearts. My name is Sonny. I am the person that you guys are looking for.”

They said, “You are going to get hurt here.” They were looking at each other because their leader was gone and he was wanting to personally put a hurt on me. They were wondering if they should wait.

I said, “Let me pray for all of you before you guys hurt me.” As I was praying and putting crosses on them, I asked them if they wanted their names written in the Lambs Book of Life.

They kept saying over and over, “When you put crosses on our necks we couldn’t move while you were praying for us.” The leader, who they call Estevan, arrived while I was praying for his gang. He looked very sad. He just got through visiting with his sick grandma.

He said, “We have heard a lot about you and we have been waiting to meet you.” Then he asked, “Can God really forgive us of all our sins because we have done a lot of bad things? Victor and Hector have been speaking to us and telling us that Jesus Christ loves you guys and wants to transform your hearts.”

While I was talking to Estevan, Hector and Victor showed up. Estevan looked at Hector and Victor. He said, “You guys became Christians now because of Sonny.”

Hector and Victor said, “Yes, that is true.” Then they said, “Just like Sonny, we are here to tell you about Jesus Christ.”

Estevan sternly said, “I told you guys that if Sonny comes around here we are going to hurt him.”

I said, “I’m right here. But before you hurt me, let me pray for you. I have already prayed for all your boys. I just want to pray for you.”

Estevan said, “Go ahead and pray for me.” The Holy Spirit revealed to me that his heart used to belong to God when he was 14 but his Dad destroyed it when he packed up one night and drove away without saying goodbye. He never said why he was leaving them. Estevan was 17 when he started his own Gang. Out of anger and bitterness, he made his gang the meanest gang in Dallas. I prayed over Estevan, “Father God you know what Estevan has been through. His Father drove away and he never looked back. Father God bring healing to his heart and his mind. Father I ask that you would show him how much you love him and that you will never leave him nor forsake him. I ask for this in Jesus Christ’s Holy name. Amen.”

As soon as I was finished praying for Estevan, I could see tears coming down his face. He knew that only my King would know his story. Estevan said, “I want to know the God you know. While you were praying for me, I wanted to hurt you so bad but I couldn’t move. Your the only one that has gotten this close to my gang without getting hurt.”

I said, “My King didn’t want you to move so that you would have to hear my entire prayer for you. He loves you very much and wants your heart. The Victory belongs to my King.”

Estevan said, “Can God really forgive me of all my sins?”

I said, “Yes, but first you have to ask Jesus Christ to forgive you and ask him to come into your heart.” After Estevan’s 21 men saw what happened to him, they too gave their hearts to Jesus Christ. I told them God is so Faithful. The Holy Spirit has confirmed that all of your names are written in the Lamb’s Book of Life. My King gets the Victory. They all called their parents and are going home with their parents.

Estevan called his Mom and we had a chance to talk to the Grandmother. Estevan and I took turns praying for his grandmother. Two days later they released her from the hospital. Later Estevan went to visit his family and his Grandparents. Our story is not yet finished.

Before I arrived in Dallas. Hector and Victor we’re wanting to find a place to celebrate when I came and they were at this park to think. They were praying as they were walking around the park. After they completed 7 revolutions, the King stopped them and said, “Stop right here. I want you to prepare a feast before your enemies here.” Both men loudly heard the same thing. They said to each other, “This is the spot.” They scheduled the celebration on the day of my arrival. Estevan’s gang would be here today with us.

When Hector and Victor’s families started to pull up, they had a flat bed trailer loaded with sound equipment. They set up the speakers and hooked up the microphones. Estevan and his boys introduced me to their families. Soon the food started to come out. Everyone was getting ready to eat. My King directed my eyes to the other side of the park. He showed me the two gangs hanging out there. Normally, this park is a war zone. The gangs were curious to see what was going on. They could see and smell all the food cooking. The kids and adults were having fun together. Both gangs were gradually starting to inch towards us to get a closer look. I said, “Hector and Victor, my King wants me to witness to those gangs.”

They asked, “Do you want us to come with you.”

I said, “No, you just keep doing what you are doing. It will be better if I go by myself.”

They replied, “Before you go Sonny, let’s pray for you and the hearts of those gangs.” After they prayed for me, I started to walk towards the gangs. When I started closing in on them, both gangs started to walk towards me. They said, “What do you want?”

I said, ” I am here to tell you that Jesus Christ loves you.”

I am not sure if they really heard what I said because their curiosity was just too high. They then asked me, “What is going on over there? What are all these kids doing here? Don’t they know this is a war zone. Those kids are going to get hurt.”

I said, “This is not about fighting. This is a feast. My King is protecting the celebration as I am speaking to you. He asked us to prepare a feast before my enemies.”

I then said, “Come with me because we are having a feast over there but put all your weapons away. There’s children over there and we want to keep them safe.”

At first one gang leader said, “It is a setup to trash us.” The second leader kind of mocked him and said, “Really, women and kids in a party scene in order to trash us. Get real.” Both gangs saw Hector and Victor over there. They knew who they were because they have witnessed to them before. They started asking questions about myself. One gang asked, “Are you a full-time preacher?” I said, “Only when I’m awake. The rest of time I have to sleep.” They switched back to the celebration and asked me what they were all doing. I confirmed with them that there would be good food. There would also be girls to dance with and of course music.

They said, “Essay, we are pretty hungry. We will put our weapons away and we will come with you.” Some of them did keep their knives but the rest of their guns were put away in their vehicles. Both gangs followed me back to the celebration. When Hector and Victor saw that the gangs were following me, they went into action. All of Hector and Victor’s boys and their families started to set up tables for both gangs. After the gangs sat down, they helped serve them. The children walked around the two gangs and kept asking them what they could bring them to drink or anything they could do to serve them.

Estevan and his boys started to stand up. Normally, these gangs shoot and fight with each other but today they’re standing in friendship. I said, “It’s OK. Their weapons are put away.” Everyone began to relax and enjoy the celebration. Then I noticed a third gang that showed up. I told Hector and Victor my King wants to witness to these guys also. I went over and invited them. I shouted back, “You better get more tables.”

I then said, “Come with me because we are having a feast over there but put all your weapons away. There’s children over there and we want to keep them safe.”

At first they said, “Get lost, we do not feel safe going over there without our weapons.”

I said, “That is too bad. I am going back to make myself a big cheeseburger. After that, I’m going to do some dancing and listen to some music.” The Holy Spirit revealed to me that the gang leader loves cheeseburgers. The smell of the food cooking, the families with their kids having fun, dancing with girls was just too much for them. Then they said, “Okay, we will do it. Essay, there better not be any fighting going on over there.” My King told me just to tell him that I am watching over the celebration and they have nothing to worry about. I said, “My king has the celebration covered. There will not be any fighting over there.” One of the gangs finished eating their food and they gave their table to the third gang. The first thing the leader of the 3rd gang did was order a double cheeseburger.

There are total of four gangs here that usually fight with each other. Everyone continued eating all the good food that was there. Hector, Victor and I were sharing the word of God with all of them. Soon started to give their hearts to Jesus Christ. Those men started calling their families to come to the park to join the celebration. Those who hadn’t accepted Jesus Christ yet, saw all the families getting together and they wanted that in their lives. All the gangs had to admit that when Hector and Victor were witnessing to them, they listened to what they said. Even though they did not want anything to do with Jesus Christ then, now all their words they spoke are all becoming real. The words we spoke today, the food and fellowship made the gangs want to change their hearts to something better even more. Hector stopped the music so I could read some more scriptures to everyone. I read John 3:16, Matthew 6:33 and John 14:6. I explained the meaning verses to the gangs. Then I said, “Those of you that want your names written in the Lambs Book of Life to come forward.” Soon the rest of the three gangs came forward. My King gets all the Glory and the Victory. I spent all night with them sharing the word of God and telling them how much Jesus loves them. I had a chance to talk with all their parents on their phones. They couldn’t stop crying. God is so Faithful.

After the last family arrived, there was over 500 at the celebration. As promised, my King had sentries posted around the celebration and no one could interfere with what happened today.

Chicago Gangs Meet Jesus

The Chicago undercover cops called me earlier and asked if I’d be willing to go Chicago and talk to four gangs. One of the gangs belonged to the MS13. These gangs are very violent and they’re always constantly shooting everything around them. It is impossible for anyone else to go in. They know the power of my King from a previous encounter of a MS13 gang. No gang, no matter how strong they are can stand against my King and his Kingdom. They are starting to realize this when they asked for my help. My King gave me thumbs up to go to Chicago. I made arrangements for the undercover police to pick me up in Denver. The jet came for me Saturday morning at the Denver International Airport. Before we took off, God wanted me to pray for the pilots. Both pilots were Christians. One of the pilots rededicated his heart to Jesus Christ. I also prayed with the women that took care of all of us during the flight. While we were in the air, my King started showing me how this gang was going to give their hearts to Jesus Christ. God wanted me to pray for them first and then read John 3:16 to them. As we flew over Chicago, my King said, “My Kingdom has gone before you and with you.” That means he has already cleared a path for me to do his will. This is as awesome as parting the Red Sea.

The pilots yelled, “Hey, Sonny we will be flying over the the houses where the gang members live.” The cameras mounted on the bottom of the jet transmitted images to the big screen TV in the living room. The homes the gangs took over were beautiful mansions at one time. I could see that there must have been a big party. There were passed out people all over the grounds around the homes the pictures. The Holy Spirit showed me a girl siting on the ground in the alley between all the houses. My King said, “She is praying to me right now. She is praying; if you are real can you get me out of here. Sonny, go get a bus and get all the girls.” After we landed, I thanked everyone on the plane and prayed with them again. The undercover police picked me up and they gave me high fives. Then they prayed for me and asked, “Sonny, what do you need?”

I said, “I need a bus. My King wants to take a bus and rescue the girls in that area as soon as possible.”

They replied, “Sonny, it is to dangerous for you to drive through that neighborhood. You will never make it!”

I exclaimed, “Whenever my King gives me a go as he did today, he will send the magnificent seven again that went before me when I witnessed to the MS13 gang the last time. They will clear a path before me again.” They finally gave in because they have seen the power of my King in action before. They dropped me off where a school bus was. They showed me how the bus works before I started my journey. It was weird driving through that neighborhood. The gangs must have quickly taken over the neighborhood. There are skeletons of late model and expensive cars that the gangs torched sitting all along the street. It looked like the residents had to leave very quickly without having a chance to take anything along with them. There also is a lots of visible damage from all the shooting going on. I drove past a large gang carrying automatic weapons. Their heads turned as they watched me drive past their location. Not a single weapon was raised as I passed. They were probably bewildered, wondering what a bus was doing here.

When I was two blocks from the houses, I walked to the alley where the girl was sitting down on the ground in the same spot I observed in the jet. I walked up to her said, “Hi!” She turned around and looked at me. She then said, “Who are you?”

I said, “My name is Sonny.” She responded, “My name is Kara.”

She asked, “What are you doing here?”

I responded, “My King sent me here to rescue you. I’m sorry you are crying.”

Kara said, “It’s ok. I have been praying for a miracle because I wanted to runaway from here. I was praying that God would send someone to help us girls.” Earlier in the day before the party began, she told all the girls to remain sober so that when the men became drunk and abusive that it would be easier to push them off. It looks like somebody already had pushed her. She had leaves all over her hair like somebody threw her into a bush.

I said, “My King showed me when you began praying. He brought me here to rescue all of you girls.” I then said, “My King gets all the Glory and the Victory.”

Kara excitedly said, “I’ll go and tell all the girls that we are leaving this place.”

I began praying for her that God would help her and give her the words to speak to all of the girls. My King then told me, “Go and stand by the south east gate near the trees and wait for the girls. As I continued praying for the girls, the south east gate opened and all the girls started walking towards me. I had no idea how many would be coming. As the girls went through the Gate, I counted 78 girls. Kara then closed the gate. As they came near me, I said, “Do not look back. That life is over.” We began walking back to the bus that I hid in a grove of trees. The girls started to cry. Some of them were holding my hands and putting their hands on my back when we got to the bus. Now, all the girls were crying very hard as they sat down on the seats in the bus. When everyone was onboard and the bus started moving, they started to laugh when they realized that it is actually happening. They were excited to go back to their families. They started calling their parents on their phones. You could hear the parents crying and their excitement on the other end of the calls to get their daughters back. I drove past the same gang with automatic weapons.  Their heads turned as I drove past. Again, no weapons were raised against us as I watched in my side mirrors. I bet that my King is working on their hearts right now and he may want me to come back and witness to these guys in the future. As of this writing, he has confirmed that I will be seeing them again.

The undercover police gave me directions to a safe place where all their parents could come and get them. When we arrived, all the girls ran out to greet their parents. Again, they began crying when hugging  their parents. I asked, “Those of you that want your names written in the Lambs Book of Life, come and stand by me. All the girls and their parents came forward and accepted Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior. My King gets all the Glory and the Victory and has more plans for me tonight. The undercover cops checked the bus to count the bullet holes. They said, “No way! No one has been able to drive in that area without getting shot up.” They still have a difficult time understanding how powerful my King is. Some of the girls shared that they have been praying for a miracle to get out of here. Others shared that they had my ministry card and almost called me several times. I asked them, “How did you come into possession of my cards in the first place?”

They replied, “We had some girls that came from a MS-13 gang that you witnessed to earlier and brought Jesus Christ to them. They came to share Jesus Christ with us. They handed me your card and told me that you were from Colorado but that didn’t matter. Just call the number on this card if you need help.” Isn’t it cool how the Holy Spirit uses people you share Jesus Christ with to do the same thing. Those obedient girls helped prepare the girls to be ready for just what happened now.

Saturday night, after all the Girls had gone home with their parents, God said, “Sonny, I want you to get up at 1 a.m.  Go anoint the front of the gangs homes and their sidewalks. Finish up by anointing the streets all the way back to the undercover police car that is waiting for you.” I called the undercover police and told them what my King’s plans were.  They made arrangements to pick me up at that time. The undercover police dropped me off two blocks away. As I started walking, it felt like I was walking in the Valley of Death. It was silent while I was praying but as soon as I stopped, the shooting started up again around the surrounding areas. All of the homes had security fences and gates that surrounded the homes. Kara knew the code to all the gates so that I could walk inside and anoint the homes. All the gates used the same code. I did as my King asked without any interruptions then went back to my room. Early Sunday morning, my King said, “Sonny, at 7 a.m. anoint all the Bible’s and the Crosses. Put the Bible’s and Crosses on the trays and set them up on tables in front of all the homes you anointed earlier.” Then my King said, “Walk away and go pray for the day.” My King had me come back at 10 a.m. All the tables and trays were exactly as I left them. Nothing was taken or touched. I stood in front of all the homes. All the guys started walking out and began yelling, “You made a big mistake standing in front of us.” As I looked them over, my King started showing me their broken hearts. I could see their lips moving but I couldn’t hear what they were saying. They kept looking at all the trays with the Bible’s and the Crosses on them but never went by them. All of them had their pistols aimed at me. All four gang leaders walked up to me and said, “Who are you?”

I said, “My name is Sonny. I was sent to you guys by my King.”

They asked, “Who’s your King?”

I said, “His name is Jesus Christ.” Then two of the leaders recognized me. One said, “Your the one that tells gang members about Jesus Christ. I stabbed you two years ago.”

I said, “Yes it’s me and I have forgiven you like my King has forgiven me.”

One of the other leaders said, “You are not walking away from here. You are going to die here today.” This is a common phrase I hear all the time. I have learned that when an obstacle this serious occurs, always pray for it or someone. It is no different this time. I said, “Before you guys shoot me, let me read a verse that my King wants you to hear. Then I’ll pray with all of you and ask if there’s any of you that want to accept Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior. I will pray again with those guys and then you can shoot me.” I began by reading John 3:16 and I John 14:6 to them. I explained those verses to them. I could see some of them had tears in their eyes. Just before I was going to pray with them, my King said to also read Matthew 6:33 to them. I continued by praying for all of them. Then I asked, “Those of you that want your names written in the Lambs Book of Life come and stand by me. ” As I stood there with my Bible, my King said, “Sonny, raise the word of God to them and tell them that I love them and want them to go back to their families.”  After I did what my King asked,  the leaders came first and stood by me. They put their weapons away and said, “We want a new life and a new purpose.” Then the rest of the gang members came to me. They too, came forward to give their hearts to Jesus Christ. I had a chance to pray for each one. When the first one started to cry, that’s when they all started crying and asked, “Can God really forgive us of all our sins like you said Sonny?”

I said, “Yes and he will forget all your sins. You just need to ask Jesus into your hears.” I then said, “The Crosses and the Bible’s are for all of you who accept Jesus Christ. Do not take anything if you don’t want Jesus Christ to be part of your life. ” All 72 men accepted Jesus Christ that morning. They all called their parents who immediately came for them. The ones that needed a ride entered the bus I brought to get to the safe place. I had a chance to meet all their parents and families. They too all gave their hearts to Jesus Christ. My King gets all the Glory and the Victory. The guys thanked me for being bold and telling us about Jesus Christ. They said, “No one has ever come to tell us that Jesus Christ loves us. Thank you for being brave.”

I said, “Someone came to me and told me that Jesus Christ loves me too. It’s about obedience to our King.” The story is not over. Before I had a chance to even write anything down. One of the gang leaders went to his grandfather who is sick in the hospital. He took his Bible and went up to pray for his grandfather. His grandfather knew Jesus Christ but was surprised to see the Bible in his hand. The gang leader shared about what happened. He then started praying for his grandfather. A doctor, who is a Christian, was listening. He commented to the gang leader about what a powerful testimony that was to his grandfather.

Black Mafia and Black Nights Accept Jesus Christ

I was at a one of the parks in Denver praying and seeking our King for what to do next. Shortly I received a call from my informers. They told me that one of the Drug Cartels, who I found out were the Black Nights a cartel I have already shared Christ with them earlier,  and the Black Mafia were meeting around 10 a.m. the next day. They asked me if I wanted the address of the meeting. My King immediately said, “Sonny, take them my Kingdom. Pick up a Cross for each man.  There will be a total of 77. There will be 33 members from the drug cartel and 44 members from the Black Mafia that will be present.”

I responded, “My King said for me to pray and take his Kingdom to them. So please give me the address.”  I looked at the address and it was here in Denver.  My King than gave more intel on these organizations and the fact that they have been looking for me. I was anxious to meet these guys but I would have to wait till tomorrow so I went home after finishing my day with other gangs.

I got up early the next day to meet them.  My King said,  “Sonny,  I  want you to take some string with you before leave.”  You are right it seemed to be a strange request to me also. But I have learned my King has a purpose for everything. I really did not have any string around the house but I had some leather laces that were quite long that I used for string.  I then headed to my pickup and drove to the address they gave me. On the way there, my King instructed me on what to do with the string.  He said, “Sonny, take the string and push it through the tiny loop on top of one of the crosses you bought for them. Then I want you to tie the ends together. You will make a circle that you will be laying on the ground when you get there.” Then my King said, “When you arrive,  I want you to drive between both organizations then stop. They will be on opposite sides of the street of each other.”  When I arrived it was just as my King said. Both sides had their pistols drawn. These organization do not trust each other because of all the money that is involved selling drugs.  I proceeded to drive between them and park my pickup. Before I got out of my pickup,  I put the 77 crosses on my neck and grabbed my Bible and the string.

Seven men from the Black Mafia started to walk towards me and one of them asked me,  “What do you want?”

I responded,  “I’m here to pray with all of you.”

One of the men who was looking me over asked,  “What’s the Bible for?”

I replied,  “I brought God’s Kingdom with me.”

He retorted, “You made a big mistake coming here.” Some of the Black Mafia started pushing me around. The Black Nights have been silent up to this point because they have dealt with the power of the Holy Spirit in the past meeting I had with them. They all of the sudden stood up for me. They said, “Guys, leave him alone. All he wants to do is talk about Jesus Christ. He is totally safe.” Then the Black Mafia backed off a little bit after their request.

I said, “My King brought me here to bring healing to all of you.” As they were looking at me, I created a big circle with the leather strings that had the cross attach to it. I then stepped inside the circle as instructed by my King. I then took the crosses off my neck and split them between both arms.  The Black Nights became scared. They asked me, “Are you going to put a curse on us Sonny?” They remember the power of the Holy Spirit gave me on our last visit.

I said,  “No, this circle is for my protection. My King has not told me what would happen if anyone would come inside this circle. All I know is it would not be good.” The Black Nights backed up even further away from me after I said that. The Black Mafia proceeded to backup likewise.

Jerome, the leader of the Black Mafia taunted, “Do you really think that circle can protect you?”

I said  “Yes, I serve a powerful King.  He protects me all the time and it will protect you.”

Then Jerome noticed the Bible and asked, “Are going to preach to us?”

I said, “My King brought me here to pray for all of you.”

Jerome asked, “What are the crosses for?”

I said, “They are a gift for you.”

Then Jerome asked,  “What’s your name?”

I replied, “My name is Sonny. I am the one you have been looking for. I have come to ask you if you want your names written in the Lambs Book of Life.” Fadell, the leader of the Black Nights asked,  “Sonny, do you know that you have a price on your head. do you know that your getting shot here tonight.”

I asked,  “Before you shoot me, let me pray for all of you first.  Then I’ll read the word of God to all of you because God wants to bring healing to all your hearts.” Because I was standing inside the circle,  I prayed one prayer for all of those under their leaders.  Then I prayed for the leaders themselves.  I then said,  “My King will not allow me to leave the circle. I would like someone to help me pass these crosses out to everyone.”  Someone from both organizations came forward to get some crosses to pass out. They were careful not to step inside of the circle where I was at.

After everyone received a cross,  I began reading John 3:16 followed by Jeremiah 29:11.  I then said,  “My King has a better purpose for all of you then what your doing now.”  I looked down in my Bible and began reading Mathew 6:33 followed by Psalms 91. I read the whole chapter outloud to them.  Jerome asked,  “What does seek first the Kingdom of God mean?”

I said, “That means you have to seek my King’s heart first above all else and that’s when you will start hearing my King’s heart.”

Fadell then asked,  “You said in John 3:16 that God so loved the world that he gave his only begotten Son.”

I said, “Yes and his name is Jesus Christ.” Then I said, “The only way to the Father is through Jesus Christ. So all of you must repent. You must ask for forgiveness. Accept him as your Lord and Savior.”  For 2 hours they continued asking a lot more questions about my King and Jesus Christ. It was hot outside as I continued to stand in the circle and answer their questions.  They never got within 21 steps of the circle except when the two came forward to pick up the crosses.  Then out of nowhere, an old man dressed in 1930s garb walked up to me and gave me my favorite sweet drink, a Route 44 cherry limeade from Sonic.  He said,  “Sonny,  I know that you are thirsty.  I have something to quench your thirst.” This is the fifth time I have seen this guy, whose name is Noah. The first time I met him was in New York City. After he had handed me the drink,  he looked at me and encouraged me to continue bringing God’s Kingdom to them while he was starting to walk away. Both sides were watching what was going on but neither side never uttered a word.  Noah seemed to come from nowhere and seemed to just disappear as he went around the tree.  In fact, they continued asking questions right where they left off and never asked me what that was all about or where did he go. I remained standing inside the circle and continued to answer their questions for another 1.5 hours. After 3.5 hours with their pistols aimed at me, all of them put their weapons down. It was now time for them to make a decision.

I said, “Those of you that want your names written in the Lambs Book of Life come and let me pray with you.” Eleven of the Black Mafia stepped forward and wanted to accept Jesus Christ and nine of the Black Nights came over to me.  One of them said,  “I’m tired of running from God.” Neither one of the leaders gave their hearts to Jesus Christ on my first encounter.  I know that a seed has been planted.

The gang leaders then did the unexpected.  Jerome signed over the titles to the almost new black Cadillacs they drove to each man that gave his life to Christ.  Fadell asked his boys if they are sure they wanted to do this as they nodded their head. Fadell walked to his car to get something.  I started praying that it would not be a weapon.  Nope he pulled out a suit case and brought out wads of cash to give to each man. It looked like $100 bills in a 2 inch stack. He asked the question again then and said no hard feelings as he gave a wad to each man. Most of the time it is impossible to leave a gang but the leaders had so much respect for his men and I am sure the Holy Spirts heart softening helped very much.

My next encounter was on July 18th as I was heading down to talk to some other gang. My King said, “Hey Sonny, I want you to pull over here in this Walmart parking lot. There you will find two rocks that I want you to get.”  I went into the parking lot and there were two smooth rocks laying next to each other in one of the parking spaces.  They were both approximately the same size. Then my King said, “Sonny pick up the two rocks.  I want you to write Isaiah 41:10 on one rock to give to Jerome and I want you to write Jeremiah 29:11 on the other rock to give Fadell.” I then asked the undercover police where I could find the Black Mafia and the Black Nights. They asked,  “What do you want to see them for?”

I replied, “My king wants me to take some rocks to the leaders. The undercover police weren’t sure what they just heard and asked, “Are you taking these guys cocaine?”

I then said,  “No, I’m just taking two rocks to them.” I could see them snicker from my response.  When they made arrangements to get cops to cover me, they always ask what I am up to. The cop humorously said, “Ah,  Sonny wants to take two rocks to the Black Mafia and Black Nights organizations.” I could tell that the cops on the other end of the line asked the question again to make sure what they heard was correct. The cop on my end gave them the answer again. You could hear them snickering in the background. I was wondering if they thought maybe I lost it.

When I found them at the location I was given, they were alone and talking to each other. As I began approaching them they both drew their pistols on me. I continued walking up to them with the rocks in each hand and gave one rock to each of them and began walking away. My King earlier told me to leave immediately after I gave them the rocks.  They asked me, “Hey Sonny,  why are you leaving in such a hurry?”

I said “My King said for me to leave immediately after giving you the rocks.”

Jerome replied,  “Sonny,  we have been thinking about everything you have told us. We will look up the verses later.” Jerome then threw his rock in the back seat of his black Cadillac and Fadell put his rock in his pocket. My King has not revealed his plan for the next step to me but how he does I am sure it will be interesting.  In a few days I was about to find out.

My 3rd encounter was started when Fadell called me. He asked if we could meet. Seven hours after Fadell called,  Jerome called and asked the same question. The Holy Spirit has completed changing their hearts.  They are ready to give their lives over to Jesus Christ.  I made arrangements to meet with both of them at the same time. When that day came for us to meet everyone from both sides was there. Everyone had their pistols but this time they were in their holsters not pointing in my direction. Even those that gave their lives to Jesus Christ the first day wanted to be there to see what was going to happen.

The leader Fadell asked, “How can God forgive me of all my sins?”

I replied, “God will forgive you of all your sins but first you have to ask for forgiveness of all your sins and ask Jesus Christ to come into your heart.”

Then Fadell said, “I’m taking the price off your head.  I want a new life with Jesus Christ.”  Jerome, who had his own questions,  asked me, “Is it really that easy?”

I said, “Yes, God created all of you for his purpose not for your own.”  The leader Jerome came up and he turned around and said,  “I’m giving my life to Jesus Christ. I’m done with this life I want a new purpose for my life. All of you that came forward and are giving your hearts to Jesus Christ you are free to go back to your families.” During the last half hour, those that gave their lives to Jesus Christ called their parents. Jerome signed the titles to the rest of the Cadillac to his men and Fedall split the rest of the cash with his men for there new start in life. There was a lot of crying going on and the men were asking for forgiveness for the things they had done to each other. The Holy Spirit is moving mightily among these men.

God is Faithful God gets all the Glory and the Victory. God is still not finished with these organization.

Day of Many Miracles

Saturday morning my focus was on 2 different Gangs. I was to serve breakfast to the first gang and lunch to the second. Because God loves us so much, he likes to provide us with our favorite foods. He gave me a list of foods to buy for each gang. I climbed into my pickup and began my drive to Denver. I pray while driving that the Holy Spirit will prepare their hearts.

When I arrived in Denver, my fuel gauge was on empty. I headed towards my favorite Cosco to fill up. I found a pump that was empty and pulled up to fill. As I opened my door, I heard someone call out my name. I looked behind me and saw Steve, the man I prayed for at this store last month. He jumped out of his car and headed towards my pump and swiped his members card and his credit card. He said, “Sonny, just be blessed.” I began a conversation with Steve to find out what just happened. The Holy Spirit prompted him to buy a red cooler at the store. He was wondering what the cooler was for. Then he was promoted to go and buy some gas. This is definitely strange because he just got through filling hs car. He bought the cooler and headed back to the fuel pumps. As he neared the pumps, he recognized my pickup and quickly came up behind me. Steve figured out what he was supposed to do. After the fuel started flowing, he went and got the cooler out of his car and gave it to me. God definitely is preparing me to reach gangs on Memorial day weekend allowing me to stock up more beverages. God has been working mightily in Steve’s life. When I prayed for him last month, he accepted Jesus in his life. When he went home, his love for his wife increased mightily. He started cooking and helping around the house and let Jesus shine towards her. Steve’s whole family now knows Jesus Christ as their personal Savior. His wife, Sharon, called me and thanked me for what I did. I replied, “I had nothing to do with it. Only my King can change one’s heart.” She still calls me and shares what amazing things Steve is doing since Jesus Christ has taken over his life. It is now time to buy breakfast for the first gang.

I headed to King Soopers to get donuts, milk and orange juice. I then proceeded to the location of the first gang. God said, “Sonny, when you meet the gang give them their breakfast and pray for them then walk away.” It was around 10 am when I arrived where they were all standing. As I got out of my pickup, they all drew out their pistols and pointed them towards me and asked, “What do you want?”

I said, “I brought breakfast for you guys and to pray for all of you.” A couple of them grabbed me and threw me against my pickup.

The leader asked, “You brought us breakfast.”

I said, “I brought donuts, milk and orange juice.”

He replied, “Why are you doing this?”

I said, “Because my King said you guys were hungry. I would like to read a couple of scriptures to you guys.” I began reading John 3:16 and Jeremiah 29:11 to them. After I read the scriptures to them, I prayed for all of them.

They curiously asked, “How did you know we wanted donuts?”

I said, “That’s what my King said you wanted.”

One guy asked, “Who’s your King?” I did not have time to answer. Another guy retorted, “That’s Jesus Christ.” I nodded confirming his answer. After I put the donuts, milk, orange juice and the cups on the picnic table God said walk away. As I was walking to my pickup, I said, “God, bless you guys.” I climbed into my pickup and drove away. I watched them in my rearview mirror. They were all looking at me while I drove away. God is so Faithful. Now it is time to get food for the second gang.

God’s menu choice for them is tacos so I headed to my favorite Taco bell. I ordered several of the large taco boxes. The manager asked, “Sonny, are all these tacos going to the gang?” I said, “Yes.” The manager replied, “You always give everything to the gang. I want to make some tacos just for you. ” He handed the bag with the taco boxes. I went directly to the second gang. As I drove up, they also took their pistols out and aimed them at me. I got out anyway and said, “My name is Sonny.”

The leader asked, “What are you doing?” Before I could answer, one of his body guards picked me up and threw me into the back of my pickup box. Boy, that really smarts landing on that hard steel floor. I answered the leader from the back of the pickup. I said, “Are you guys hungry? I brought 5 dozen tacos for you guys.” As I climbed out of my pickup box, they started to put their weapons away.

The leader asked, “You brought us tacos.”

I said, “Yes, because my King said you were hungry and you guys wanted tacos.” Two guys started to push me around and threw me against my pickup. Out of nowhere the Latinos pulled up. They are another gang I witness to and have written to you about. They even call to give me their schedule. They were in the same park and were watching me closely. They surrounded us in their Mustangs. They all quickly exited their cars with their guns drawn towards the gang. The angry leader of the Latinos said, “If you guys touch Sonny again, all of you will get shot. Sonny is not here to fight with you guys. He’s here to bring food to you and to tell you about Jesus Christ. So don’t touch him.” They turned and headed back to their cars and drove away. The leader asked, “Who were those guys?” The Holy Spirit revealed, “Sonny, he doesn’t need to know.” So I told him, “I really do not know. But he feels that I am not a threat to anyone.”

I said, “Let me pray for you guys then I will drive away.” Before I prayed for them, I read Jeremiah 29:11 then I prayed for them. I got the 5 dozen tacos and drinks that I had in my cooler and set them on the table. I told them that Jesus Christ loves them as they started eating. I got my taco bag out and ate four of the tacos with them. I counted eight tacos left. Normally, the gangs devour everything in sight but they did not touch the bag. I wanted to give the tacos to the gang but God said, “No.” I loaded the cooler and my tacos into the pickup. I drove away from the park. As I drove around the corner I saw eight homeless guys holding signs saying “Will work for food? ” Now I know what the tacos are for. I parked and grabbed the tacos. I said, “I have a taco for each of you.” They were greatful for the food. One asked, “It would be great to have a Dr Pepper now. I have not had one for ages.”

I said, “I have one in the cooler for you.” They all began asking to have a drink of some kind. I had something left in the cooler for each of them. I began asking questions about them. They pointed out two of their friends who were asleep under the tree. I began thinking how they missed out on the food and the scripture of the wedding party. Some patrons did not have enough oil for their lamps and were forced to go to town to buy more. When they came back now prepared, the wedding party came and gone leaving them all alone. It is good to be ready. They also revealed to me that it has been difficult to get a job. When an employer finds out they are homeless, they do not want them. I said, “I cannot help you in that area. But my King can. Can I pray for you.” They wanted me to pray for each of them. As I lifted their unemployment situation to God, a landscaper was being directed by the Holy Spirit to come here. He saw me talking to the men and drove his work truck next to us. He introduced himself and that he was looking for workers and had a place for them to live with weekly trips into town to get things. He said, “If you show up for work each day for work and don’t steal from me that you will see a pay increase each month. We usually work through the month of October” He also warned them about what happened if they began not doing their job or stealing from him. He even gave a job to those sleeping. They all wanted to give their lives to Jesus Christ after witnessing such a powerful miracle. My King gets all the Glory and the Victory I did exactly what my King said.

So far the eight homeless are getting there before the boss. He serves them coffee and breakfast before work. They then discuss today’s work schedule. Everyone does his job. Being homeless together has bonded them like family. They want to support each other and they do work. They have worked late and not complained. If they are fast they can quit early or start tomorrow’s work today to get off early tomorrow. The boss said to me, “It is refreshing to have everyone there at the start of the day; not having to wonder if anyone will show up.”

As for the gangs, God has plans for me to speak to them again next weekend. I will keep you informed.
