The Spirit Driveth Me

De: Debra B. Morton

In this episode, General Overseer Debra B. Morton encourages believers to be driven by the Holy Spirit and not by materialism and fleshly desires. In a time when many individuals are driven by fame and money, Elder Morton reminds us that these things are perishable. The Bible says, "What does it profit a man to gain the whole world and lose his soul?" This is a wake-up call for believers to seek God for a divine purpose in which we can be fulfilled.

Elder Debra B. Morton is co-pastor of the Greater St. Stephen Full Gospel Baptist Church in New Orleans, Louisiana. In 1993 Elder Morton was ordained an elder, making her one of the first female elders to preach in the Baptist pulpit. Her current program, launched in 2007, is The Power Woman Initiative; her goal is to positively impact the lives of women by nurturing and empowering them to succeed as leaders in their homes, jobs, church, and community. Elder Morton is General Overseer of the Full Gospel Baptist Church Fellowship International women's ministry known as the Daughters of the Promise. Her vision for the Daughters of the Promise is to build and operate a home for troubled teenage girls. She is the author of three books, and is presently penning a forthcoming devotional focusing on empowering women and helping them achieve balance in their daily lives.
