Tabernacle Of Praise

"Just A Servant"

W. J. Dawson was prophesied to years ago that one day he would preach Gods word. He told the prophet that prophesied to him that he would never preach. Although God had spoken to him at the time of his mother's death at the age of nine years old, he fought at every turn to keep the thought of preaching out of his mind.

Many years passed but every time the subject of preaching Gods word would come up, he would change the subject. However, he would always be at the forefront of the civil rights movement in his home town of Swainsboro, Georgia speaking against injustices and helping those who were not able to help themselves. He had a special love for the youth and elderly and would not compromise with local governments by selling out to keep quiet about those who were being persecuted.

One day just like Saul W. J. Dawson found himself at the cross-road of life. He refused to obey God and found himself at a dead end with no where to go. God heard his prayer and delivered him, but still he refused to answer the call to preach. After so many ups and downs and running from the call to preach, God spoke to W. J. Dawson about "Beyond The Walls Ministry".

W. J. Dawson answered the call and became a street minister in his old childhood neighborhood in Swainsboro, Georgia. and he walked the streets and told the good news about Jesus Christ, the answer to all our problems. He did this for three years and revamped a run down where he grew up as a young boy. He later became pastor of Solomon Tabernacle of Vidalia, Georgia, where he served as pastor for four years. As a result of humbling himself, seeking God's face, turning from his wicked ways, God spoke to him from heaven and he answered the call once again and founded The Tabernacle of Praise Church located in Wadley, Georgia. The church held dedication services on February 4, 2007. God has blessed Tabernacle of Praise and God is moving in such an awesome way in W. J. Dawson Ministries.
