DICK MILLS’ PASSING

Last month I attended the Memorial Service for my friend and mentor, Dick Mills. Dick was known widely throughout the world as a man with a “Word from the Lord”. He memorized several hundred Scripture Promises that he ministered to others. In 1978 Dick spoke a Word over me that I would become a “carrier” of the Word and likewise would memorize Scripture promises to minister to those in need of a “Word from the Lord”. Six pastors, including Jack Hayford, Bill Jonhson, Jim Tolle and others honored Dick’s unwavering dedication to the Word of God. It was said that he was always ready to give a “Word from the Lord” to anyone wherever he went. I was challenged afresh to memorize more of God’s Word and to always be happy to give an encouraging Word to someone in need.
