recently i have been thinking about Phil Drisco and the impact his music has made in my life but when I heard through Kenneth Copeland Meeting that he was in jail for what he is not guilty of I felt bad. But the truth is I am one of those that your music has impacted spitually. I love you and i will keep thanking God for your ministry which I know Will impact those prisioners for good. You can just imaging those souls that you will lead to heaven even in your trials. sir you have a good testimony in the body of Christ.

I got saved during my senior year of High School and went on to know the Lord under the leadership of Bishop Michael Blue who shared with me your music during a rough time of family persecution during my college years. I promise you I have never felt such a depth in worship as I entered God's presence singing praises that God anointed you to write . I have since then struggled spiritualy with my walk with God but I can still feel that intamacy I felt with God during my sophmore year of college while listening to your Classical Hymns and The Power of Praise. You have been a tremendous blessing more than I can articulate in words. As a matter of fact the news of your trial came as I was searching for information about your music which is evidence that even in this state the anointing through your music is still resident from 1997 to break chains and destroy yokes. I conclude with your very own lyrics "There is no other Song but a Song of praise for You Sir" As long as we keep a praise in our mouth we are free! This will pass and be a great testimony which will bring a new song of deliverance and bring a new anointing for your ministry. You are on the verge of the greatest revelations of praise. God is with you because He inhabits the praises of His people!

As a musician, Mr Driscol changed my life and because of the way God used him, my worship experience has sky-rocketed. People are impacted greatly by what I share with them and there isn't a time that I play anywhere that I don't thank God for the anointing on me through Phil Driscol.
I can't judge whatever he's involved in but we all have had some point of imperfecttion in our lives and should not be judgemental of him. I have no doubt that he is in a place of contentment and that the "same God" is able to comfort and restore him.
Hang in there Phill and I'm praying for you.

I just found out today on the internet while searching for where to buy Phil's CDs about this tax evasion business. I am not going to draw conclusions as I am not privy to all the details of the case but as Phil's music has touched my life over the years, he and his family will be in my prayers that "............all things will work out for good, for those that love God"
I believe that someone whose music has had as much impact as Phil's on lives all over the world, certainly has God's attention in whatever situation.
Phil, make the best of this "retreat" by deepening your relationship with the Lord and who knows it may end up as a "Joseph" situation.
God bless you and yours.

Hi Phil, jsut like Joselyn, I heard about your being in prison by Kenneth Copeland in the SWBC. I used to watch your programme while i was in Nigeria and you are such a blessing. What the world has to say about you does not count, it's what the Master says about you that does. You are the righteousness of God and the devil will be wishing he hadn't tried you by the time you're done with prison because of the lives you will change. Stay strong and keep walking in the blessing. Ada

Phil could probably be pardoned with one stroke of president Bush's pen...and he should release those border patrol agents who shot the drug smugglers in the doopa as well.

Phil, I praise God for your life. Know that the Lord has blessed us a lot down here using your ministry, and I know He will continue to do so. This week I was led by the Lord to pray for you as I was listening to In His Presence one more time, and as I tried to enter your website I found out about the whole thing. Then I knew why I had to pray! Your are gonna come out of all this stronger, prepare to receive a lot of revelation while in prision! For your body is stuck there but your spirit is free in the Lord and you are way freer than the people who have put you there!

Phil...HOSANNA is one of my favorite songs that you've sang. Disciples and apostles of Jesus had been cast into prison merely for preaching in His name. Yet while they were there, God used them to set other people free...literally and spiritually.
What the devil means for evil, God will turn around for good. Not just YOUR good...but the good of others who may otherwise have never called on His name.
These are indeed the last days, and a love for God amongst men will not be a hallmark. It will be exactly the opposite...Romans 1. "Many are the afflictions of the righteous, but the Lord delivers them out of them all."
