My electricity just came back on, its the middle of the night, and I’m enjoying the sounds and cool breeze of a nice rain!! I don’t think it is going to last long so that’s why I’m enjoying it and taking it in. I had wanted to send you this email earlier today, but time went by, electricity went off, and here we are.
I wanted to let you know I will be taking a journey this next week and I would love for you to join me in pr@yer. I will be visiting a friend and colleague as well as returning to a village with friends I have not seen in awhile. I am excited and looking forward to seeing their faces, hearing their greetings, and just sitting together.
I have several things I would like for you to pr@y with me about. Please pr@y and ask our Father
to go before me and surround me and cover my back as Harvey and I make the journey. We know the reality that there are people out there who would like to make statements and show their “power”. We also know that the power and Presence of our Daddy G0d trumps and triumphs no matter what the situation seems to be. We know that even now the enemy seeks to destroy the work of the One True G0d and the sp!r!tual battle of this world rages.
to give me eyes to see what cannot be seen, ears to hear His voice, a heart open to ALL that He wants to do, and the confidence to do and say whatever He places before me to do and say.
to pour out His Sp!r!t even now and prepare the hearts of those with whom I will sit. He alone draws people to Himself, He alone speaks to their hearts, and He alone knows who and what He has planned for the time we will sit together.
to fill me to overflowing with His unfailing love, grace, mercy, peace, hope, kindness and joy so that He Himself will be what spills out onto those i meet and spend time with each day.
This past week has been a great week with S0 and D@n. Just after taking Fon back to his village, S0, D@n, and I sat together to talk about preparing ourselves to go and stay a few days in the village with Fon, w0rsh!pping together, sharing G0d’s W0rd together, and being G0d’s servants and witnesses alongside Fon for a few days. The exciting part is that S0 has been experiencing this moments where G0d has given him specific things to do and say as His witness and servant. S0 is tasting what it means to not only believe, but to be empowered by G0d’s Sp!r!t to testify and share with others the Truth about Who Jss is and what He does. We have spent 2 days training and talking with S0 about what it means to go from village to village as Jss sent His d!sc!ples– what we must do, who we must be, and how we must follow G0d’s Sp!r!t. While I am gone this week, D@n and S0 will continue this training so that they will be ready and prepared to go when I return. Please add these things to the prayer points above:
focused time for D@n and S0 to sit together to prepare for our journey to Fon’s village
G0d to pour out His Sp!r!t on F0n’s village
to prepare their hearts and minds and sp!r!ts
to reveal Himself through dreams and visions even before our arrival
to prepare Fon and his wife to be witnesses and servants daily as they live out their faith and belief in Jss
for a unity and oneness among us that can only be described as from G0d
Thank you for journeying with G0d, with me, and with your brothers and sisters in faith here in M@li!!
My journey will begin while you are sleeping tonight. Please call out to our Daddy G0d as you end your day…mine will be beginning!!
I love you all and thank G0d for this road of F@ITH He has called us to walk!!
