Remembering Pastor Zachery Tims

 
Remembering Pastor Zachery Tims

It was just nearly one year ago the late pastor Zachery Tims was found in a New York hotel. The news of his death shocked the church world and followers alike. Zachery Tims was a popular pastor in nearby Orlando, Florida but by the time this news hit nationwide, he became a household name.

Since it has been a year, followers and spectators are still in the dark about exactly what happened the day of his death. The toxicology and autopsy reports have not been released due to Tims' mother having them court ordered shut, for now. The family is moving forward and even the church has an unfavorable pastor in charge but they have moved on as well. But what about the true of his death?
 Will it ever be released to the public as most cases have been in the history of America?

We reported early this year:
Madeline Tims' attorney Ricardo E. Oquendo says the Appellate Court should grant the stay and it could be more than a year until a decision is made. Apparently, Oquendo has until October to file his appeal.
Madeline Tims attorney also curtly states: "If I win my stay, there will not be a decision on the Tims case until 2013," Oquendo said.

Zachery Tims Cause of Death To Be Appealed by Mother

Zachery Tims Cause of Death Stayed by Appeal
We have the latest on Zachery Tims' cause of death. Apparently, the autopsy results will remain sealed even though a Manhattan Judge ruled it should be released to the public.
13News.com reported hours ago that an appeals court in New York has issued a temporary stay on Wednesday. This was after Zachery Tims' mother filed a notice she will be appealing the state Supreme Court ruling.
The courts have given Madeline Tims, mother of Zachery Tims, 30 days to file an appeal after she stated to the court in a four page letter that: "her son's cause of death would be "embarrassing to her, his children, and her grandchildren" and the congregation at New Destiny Christian Center in Apopka."

Zachery Tims' Members Want Ex-Wife Riva Tims to Return to New Destiny Church

Zachery Tims' former wife, Riva Tims, has been receiving many calls to return to the Florida megachurch they founded together 15 years ago to fill the gap left by Tims, who passed away last month.

Riva Tims has addressed questions from members of New Destiny Christian Center(NDCC) on her Facebook page who wanted to know if their former first lady would be returning to fill the position her ex-husband left behind.

"In response to so many of your inquiries... I have gotten an overwhelming response from my New Destiny Family to come home and/or at least minister to them," Riva Tims wrote.
"However, I have not been contacted by NDCC staff to return or to assist in the transition. I will continue to pray and cover NDCC, that the vision Zack and I birthed will continue! Thanks for all of your love and prayers."

Did God Take Dr. Zachery Tims Life?

Saints of God, it is very disturbing to hear certain members of New Destiny Christian Center allegedly say they did not know why God would do a thing like this.  First and foremost, we do not serve a God who goes around killing people and He would not place drugs in the late Dr. Zachery Tims pocket.   It is not right for anyone to blame God for what He did not do.   We can clearly see that those particular church members were not receiving spiritual food, understanding God and do not even have relationship with Him.   Really, do we serve a God who would leave Zachery Tims to be found dead with a white powdery substance found in his pocket?   Absolutely not and people who think God had something to do with his death are making him out to look like a fool.  God is not mean and would never do a foolish thing.   Therefore, New Destiny Christian Center needs to be anointed with a pastor who will set the record straight and who will reflect God as a loving God who may allow certain tragedies, but not go around killing anybody.


Like we mentioned in our prior articles, God may have allowed Dr. Zachery Tims to die, because He wanted someone to rebuke the demon of death and for everyone to recognize that Jesus still can raise the dead in the 21st century.   God has reasons for certain things that may not look right in the natural, but in the spiritual world he tests our faith to see if we believe He can do the impossible and as we can see, today's modern church lack faith, because they are ready to bury him and already look for the next pastor to take his position since two days ago.   After all, isn't that what Zachery Tims taught, faith without fear?   But no one as we know of, not even his ex-wife has laid hands on his body for him to rise up in the name of Jesus.  


God is not a drug dealer, He does not go around placing drugs in people's pockets.  Those who are blaming Him for this tragedy is not in line with His Kingdom and need very much to repent.  God does not like His spiritual message to do miracles to be confused with Him as a murderer.    So, before Dr. Zachery Tims is buried will we see someone go and rebuke the demon of death and lay hands on him to rise, so He may come back with a testimony of whatever experiences He had on the other side?   So many testimonies we have heard (and we will present a page in the future for you to see for yourself) of people who went to heaven and hell and returned for other people to hear messages from God and to know what His requirements is for all of us in His Kingdom, then there were those who went to hell and come back for us to know hell, Satan and his demons exists.  Some of those people went to both places.   When some people went to hell, they saw certain ministers in eternal hell for robbing people through tithes and offerings or not doing what God told them to do or preaching the wrong sermons.   


Flatly, we do not need anymore people who are supposed to be saved going around blaming God for this tragedy.   God is not One to kill people and again, He would never plant drugs in Zachery Tims pocket and allow him to be discovered the way he was by the hotel staff.   God is trying to get the body of Christ attention for us to totally yield to His will and to His way and not focus on fame or fortune.  He is looking for us to clearly submit to Him without rebellion.  He wants to see Holy Crosses back up in his churches and the globes to be removed.   He wants someone to go into the morgue or mortuary, wherever Zachery Tims body is and to rebuke death.  God wants so much to get the glory out of this situation, but people are not clearly understanding who He is.  Those who were Tims followers are confusing His death with God's doing, it is not God's doing.   God wants someone to have faith enough to lay hands on his body, so people will know that no matter what was found on his body or the wrong lifestyle he may have been involved in, He can still raise him from the dead.  We serve a powerful God, a God full of love and who will not back down for Satan to take another soul.   God did not take Zachery Tims life and whether you are a church member, ... or anyone who was just a supporter of his ministry, do not say that about God anymore.

Zachery Tims: How To Keep Your Husband (or Wife) Who Is a Pastor From Using Drugs

We did not want to mention the truth about what we used to see on TBN (Trinity Broadcasting Network), but there were times we used to see Zachery Tims acting as though he was on drugs: massive sweats, talking rapidly and saying things out of the norm and one specific time, we tuned in, he was being interviewed by Paula White with his wife.  This was before he was accused of having an affair with a stripper.   It was so hurting to see and we knew he must have been on drugs, but we prayed for him.    Now that we have heard the news like the rest of you that Pastor Zachery Tims is dead and a white powdery substance was found in his pocket as he laid on the hotel room floor, it hurts even more.   We never expected his life would end as a result of what we suspected while watching him on TBN.  May Zachery Tims rest in peace and we pray He is in the arms of Jesus Christ. 

Our heart goes out to Pastor Riva Tims, Zachery wife and their children.  They both made a nice couple and made a good example of how God can build a ministry through a marriage.   They had a dynamic blessed union.   It was Satan who destroyed their marriage and we feel bad that Pastor Zachery Tims had been overcoming his drug habit since he was 19 years old.   That's a very long time until his death at age 42 to be dealing with trying to overcome it. He built such a great ministry and reached over 300 million television viewers, according to a source.  That's so great, to have been able to get off of drugs, testify about it and go into the ministry and spread the Word of God across the nation and abroad.  No matter how much Pastor Zachery Tims may have had difficulty trying to kick the drug habit, he yet testified about God's deliverance, that's awesome. 



If you are a first lady or possibly, a pastor who is married to is hooked on any sort of alcohol or drug: crack cocaine, Heroin, Marijuana, Ecstasy, Methamphetamine, LSD, Opium, Inhalants, Amphetamine, we want to try and help and give you spiritual tips.  First, you must not give up on your spouse, no matter how hard it gets.   Keep fasting and praying that God can take away there drug habit, no matter how hard things may seem in your marriage.   God has a lot for you to do in the ministry and one of those main things is to win souls into his Kingdom.  We cannot allow drugs to be the reason for the gospel preached to be discontinued around the world.  We have got to find a way not to ever allow this to happen to anyone in the family of God.   So, let us began to help you, if you are in a marriage with someone or both of you are ministers of the gospel and you are trying to overcome drugs or alcohol.


  • Together, you must fast and pray.  On a daily basis, make it a habit to fast and pray against the demon of using drugs.   You see, a lot of churches and ministries today are into making so much money and fame, they have forgotten the importance of fasting and praying.   One time, we heard Creflo Dollar make fun of what they used to call tarrying, there is nothing wrong with tarrying.   Tarrying is constant prayer to reach heaven, so God can save and deliver those among us.   The church is so caught up on keeping up with the celebrity lifestyle, they refuse to fast and pray.  The Bible speaks about fasting and praying.  It says this in Matthew 17:1, "Howbeit this kind goeth not out but by prayer and fasting. " Meaning, fasting and praying is the only way to be loosed from Satanic dominion.

  • Everyday when you wake up, start praising God for delivering you from using drugs.  Out loud, no matter if your wife or kids are around, begin praising the Lord and do this at least 3 times a day before you go to bed.

  • Throw the drugs away and make a vow to God to never use them again.  It may seem hard to do this, but you must make a decision to turn your back on what has been destroying your relationship with God, your marriage, your ministry or whatever in your life.   You must make a commitment to turn your back on drugs and never look back, because if you do, you will be destroyed and leave those who love you so dearly behind, including your ministry.  You do not want that to happen, so please obey before it is too late.

  • Whenever you have a craving for drugs, immediately starting bind the Devil.  Begin to rebuke him and his demons, because he is trying to destroy life, marriage and ministry.  With God's strength, let Satan know he cannot have your soul, he cannot destroy your marriage or your ministry.  You must do this, because Satan tries to act as though he is strong than God and makes it seem like God cannot deliver you from using drugs.  So, you've got to let him know your soul belongs to God.

  • Stop hanging with those who use drugs and continue to preach against that demon on a regular basis.   Those who use drugs are not necessarily those in the streets, it is those behind the pulpits.  You must let them know, unless they stop using drugs, you cannot have anything else to do with them, because by living a hypocritical lifestyle, it will offend God and destroy everything God gave you: your marriage, your ministry and your children.  So, you must let them go unless they desire to want to be saved and delivered from drugs. 

These five tips will help you, your spouse or the both of you to overcome using drugs.   Because if you allow drugs to rule you, you never know how your life may end.  Remember, those who preach the Word of God in the pulpit is suppose to help keep the statistics of drugs down, not be a part of the statistics.

Stay strong and keep praying and praising God for your deliverance.
 

Let Us Pray for Zachery Tims Church Family of New Destiny Christian Center

Since we have found out about the death of Zachery Tims, it has indeed brought shock among the body of Christ.  He was so young, only 42 years old.  It something how when you are still living they call that age, old (an obvious silly trick of Satan).   Anyway, it is very hurting to know we have lost a dynamic man of God.   He was so well liked among everyone that knew him and even those who knew of him through media television, he was just an awesome man of God.   Regardless of the evidence discovered near Pastor Tims deceased body, we loved him and God loved him even more.  The most important thing for us as children of God to do now is, pray.   We need to pray for the church members of New Destiny Christian Center in Orlando, Florida.  


Most definitely, the church family of New Destiny Christian Center needs strength in this time of bereavement.   We feel they are scared and confused, regarding this traumatic past news of losing their pastor.   God wants the body of Christ to now pray like we have never prayed before, because God is doing something and for a longtime, he has been trying to get the attention of those who are not completely yielding to His throne.   


The future of New Destiny Christian Center is at stake.   There has been a discussion of the possibility Riva Tims, the ex-wife of the late Zachary Tims to take the leadership position of the church.   We do not know yet, we have just been following the latest news from MyFoxOrlando.com.  Whatever the case maybe or whomever takes on the leadership role at New Destiny Christian Center, we must keep praying that the church family remains strong, along with Riva Tims and their children.   God bless you.
