I t moves me greatly to once again be accounted part of the anointed writings of Brother Prater. He not only has a passion for the church and people of God, but also people of every ethnic group and background. I have witnessed his ministry fruitfully grow and spread rapidly throughout the years, as his integrity as a man and minister has impeccably stood the process. I have known him for over thirty years, and twenty of those as a born-again believer. I have witnessed his ups and his downs. I have witnessed his character in times of victory, and I have witnessed his character in his times of despair.

Brother Prater has always stood the test and prevailed. His character through it all has never wavered, has stood firm, never changing, stays constant and steady while gracefully enduring it all. His church ministry has blessed many, as he has sacrificially shown that faithfulness to leaders and flocks is still very much acceptable in God’s eyes. His social media ministry reaches masses across the globe, as souls from far and near have connected with his ministry to experience God’s best for them. His gifts are sharp and on point. His speech is graceful and seasoned. His calling is evident.

His current writing of this book is an overwhelmingly heart felt endearment. At the same time, it reaches down into our spiritual bowels. It will uplift the inner man that is sometimes captive to this world, and it’s inevitable seasons of sorrow, mourning, and grief.
