Dedication
Who can find a virtuous woman? For her price is far above rubies. The heart of her husband doth safely trust in her so that he shall have no need of spoil. She will do him good and not evil all the days of her life. Proverbs 31:10-12
This book is dedicated to my loving wife, Pastor Karen Ford, a Godly woman who believes in the Word of God. She has uncompromising faith that God IS, and will deliver, heal and set free those who ask.
When I surrendered my life to the Lord, I found the true meaning of unconditional love. I saw her relationship with Jesus Christ rise up and outward towards me. This love allowed me to become the husband and Godly man that is required by the Father and our Savior.
I love her for all that she is and all that she has experienced. I would not take back one day of our years together. She is the one that convinced me that it is okay to be an imperfect human being. I know in her eyes I am perfection and in the eyes of Jesus.
Thank you for loving me.
I love you always… .
Pastor Roger Ford
A Prelude To A Kiss
Several years ago I thought I was in a comfortable place in my healing. My deliverance however; was not complete. There was bondage that I chose to remain in. Areas of my life that I subconsciously refused to surrender to God. The opposite of freedom is slavery. I chose to remain enslaved to people, places and things from my past.
God predestined my coming into relationship with
Apostle Shawnette A. Houghton, Presiding Prelate-LFC-
Apostolic Ecumenical Community Network of Kingdom Churches & Ministries. A global network in Chicago IL. How can I thank you enough? I love you. Thank you for showing me what freedom looks like. You realized there was yet sexual and relational healing and deliverance to be done. You not only expected, but demanded that we walk in the calling that God has ordained in our lives. You are a Powerful, Anointed woman of God. You walk in the Word, and you chastise with a two edged sword. Thank you for removing my grave clothes. Thank you for your support and for instilling greater courage to expose the enemy and live victoriously. Thank you for receiving me just where I was supposed to be, for releasing and ordaining me to do that which God has called me to do. As you continue to release, and preach the Gospel, may others be healed as they are touched by your shadow when you pass by.
Your Devoted Servant
Pastor Roger Ford
Foreword
I believe that an individual can abstain for years and not be delivered; likewise one can be delivered yet not healed; while most will settle for being healed while never being made whole.
In the midst of the rubble of sexual and relational idolatry and underneath the dust of ashes of perversion and brokenness, a leader emerges whose transparency in the truth about his struggle transforms. Psalms 51:8 speaks of the rejoicing that can come forth from the broken. Rarely in the lives of broken people do you hear the sounds of repentances that reverberate as rejoicing.
Well the Blood speaks and testifies as it has washed clean the stain and stench of sin.
Up out of an open grave comes forth a Pastor Roger whose life boldly testifies to the title of his book Redeemed. The bible says let the Redeemed of the Lord say so. Pastor Roger speaks. He has a passion for seeing souls saved and set free. Holiness is what he lives for. His praise is personal, for it is his bones telling his redemption story. Earlier I stated that few live whole. Pastor Roger is an example of being Delivered! Healed! and made Whole!
God has a way of allowing the paths of destiny to cross. Eight or nine years ago Pastor Roger and I met, and I had the pleasure of meeting the testimony of deliverances housed in Pastor Roger. Since then I have had the honor of watching God complete a work.
It is not his story that will captivate you because everyone has a story but it is the power of God in his process, the Blood Jesus paid for the plan for his life and the Holy Spirit relentless pursuit to keep what was predestined.
As you journey through the pages of his life may you be introduced to Pallet (GOD of deliverance).
Thank you for coming forth and allowing me to be one of those who unwrapped you. May My Ceiling Be Your Floor.
Humbly Submitted,
Apostle
