Tune in for a powerful evening of community prayer, scriptural insight from Ecclesiastes, and messages of unwavering love and fidelity sent directly to those who need to hear them most.

In this powerful broadcast from Oasis Radio Ministries, Pastor Lonnie Provo delivers a message of radical honesty and spiritual renewal. Drawing inspiration from the late S.M. Lockridge’s legendary sermon, "It's Friday, but Sunday’s Coming," Pastor Lonnie reminds listeners that no matter how dark the "Friday" of their lives may seem—whether facing incarceration, racism, or personal failure—the resurrection power of "Sunday" is always on the horizon.

The episode features:

• A Personal Testimony of Transformation: Pastor Lonnie reflects on his journey from a life of deep-seated racism and hatred for the "white man's God" to finding clarity and boldness through the uncompromising preaching of Jimmy Swaggart.

• Unfiltered Conversations on Purity: In a moment of rare candor, Pastor Lonnie addresses the "unspoken strongholds" that plague believers behind bars and in the world, calling for a surrender of private sins to become effective witnesses for Christ.

• Community Support: Sister Monica and Ms. Andrea call in to share heartfelt messages of love and scripture with their husbands, Martin and Carlos. Mama Nellie joins from Kentucky to offer a community update and a call for prayer for those facing upcoming surgeries and personal tragedies.

• The Biblical Concept of "The Double": Exploring Isaiah 40, Pastor Lonnie explains the beautiful tradition of "doubling over" a debt skin—a powerful metaphor for how Jesus Christ took our spiritual bankruptcy, nailed it to the cross, and paid our indebtedness in full.

If you are seeking the strength to "wait upon the Lord" and bind yourself closer to His will, this episode offers the encouragement and the "boldness beyond compare" needed for the journey.

"They who wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength... they shall run and not be weary." — Isaiah 40:31

In this moving broadcast from Oasis Radio Ministries, Pastor Lonnie Provo opens the floor to a community leaning on faith during seasons of intense trial. Addressing those facing physical, financial, and spiritual challenges, Pastor Lonnie reminds listeners that while the enemy seeks to "steal, kill, and destroy" through discouragement and false teachings, the believer is an ambassador equipped with the gift of discernment and the power of the Holy Spirit.

The heart of this episode features raw, heartfelt calls from the "Oasis family":

• Sister Monica shares a powerful message of devotion to her incarcerated husband, Martin, and leads the community in a collective prayer for her mother-in-law, Emma.

• Ms. Andrea offers a beautiful testimony of love and salvation, speaking words of encouragement to her husband, Carlos.

• Mama Nellie returns after a season of illness to share a profound, poetic reading titled "Who Are You?", exploring why the "chosen ones" often face the fiercest battles and how a "pit" is often preparation for a divine assignment.

Pastor Lonnie concludes with a deep dive into Psalm 88, "The Cry of a Desperate Man." He challenges the common misconception that material success is a measure of faith, reminding us that God’s presence is a constant—even when we feel shut in by darkness or abandoned by friends. If you are feeling overwhelmed by life’s "spiritual fight," this episode serves as a reminder to stand still, wait for His leading, and trust the one who promised never to leave nor forsake you.

"If your presence go not with me, carry us not up hence." — Exodus 33:15

In this broadcast of Oasis Radio Ministries, Pastor Lonnie Provo returns after a brief absence due to a medical emergency involving his prosthetic leg. His return is marked by a deep sense of commitment to his listeners, particularly those currently incarcerated, whom he considers his primary mission field.

The program focuses on the themes of faith and obedience, grounded in the significance of Resurrection Sunday. Pastor Provo emphasizes the omnipotence of the "Godhead"—the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit—asserting that God remains in control despite global turmoil, technological shifts like AI, or personal hardships.

• Scriptural Focus: The teaching centers on Isaiah 40:28–31, reminding listeners that while human strength is limited and "youth shall faint," those who wait upon the Lord will "renew their strength" and "mount up with wings as eagles."

• Intercessory Prayer: A significant portion of the program is dedicated to prayer for the sick, the grieving (specifically mentioning a friend, Donald McGee), and the expansion of the ministry into federal units in the Beaumont area.
