Tonight listening to some worship music on the headphones & thanking God for how He has blessed me to bless others. What an amazing 3 months this has been down here in Haiti with Grace So Amazing Ministries. I remember many nights in Nashville up late praying Lord where do you want me ? What do I need to give up to make this happen? Lord let me put my entire life into your hands. Many of you know that my history was filled with junk, Well that's exactly what it is "History" its gone its been wiped clean and I've entered a new life. A life that's filled with joy,prayer,worship,love and so much more. I've seen the sick healed I've seen people turn their lives over to Christ. Everyday is a blessing and each person we come in contact with we are called to love & show the love of Jesus.
There are many stories I have from my stay but there are a couple of stories that stick out to me more.The March Visiting Orphans team, came with one purpose and that was to show the love of Jesus and pray and worship, we did this each day going from house to house. On this particular day The Holy Spirit was heavy.
The First place was a woman who said after the worship songs , and when we asked how we could pray she said this " I want to quit smoking!! . I had my eyes closed God jolted me i looked at the broken chains on my arms and instantly said "I will pray for you"!! Your testimony is a great opportunity to pray for those going through what you have been through . I put my hands on her head and began to pray for freedom that God would break the chains of addiction!!! Let me tell you my hand was hot and I felt a fire in my soul , God was close & and oh what an amazing feeling it was . Folks are crying out to know Jesus and break free from the junk in there life, this is happening all over the world I remember leaving that place saying Lord even as we leave keep a fresh fire upon this place where your precious daughter Adelaide has cried out for you to break addiction in her life . replace it with all of you Lord !!
As we made our way to the next house the presence of the holy spirit was fresh. We arrived at the house. Papa was in the Garden working, As we started to sing He made His way over and when we finished singing He said "I could feel something stirring in my soul, I want to accept Jesus Christ"!! The children were there along with mom , Mishcad soon arrived and we all entered their house they sat together as a family and we prayed over them. Just before all of this happen I remember a cool breeze blowing in front of the house, Holy Spirit went before us and declared goodness in that place. What a beautiful picture this day was, I always talk about changing the atmosphere, How & where you carry the atmosphere of Jesus will surely change the atmosphere where you place your feet.
As I sit here in my room tonight i can feel Him all around , words of encouragement are downloading in my brain and my heart. Papa loves us so much, Each word He gives me whether through song or a verse in the Bible I make sure I apply that to my day & night. Listen to the words He is saying and share them with community. I think Lord what a journey what a path what a story your writing and thank Him for the opportunity to be a disciple for the kingdom of heaven and to bring sons & daughters to Jesus.
Lord my prayer is that I will continue to be a laid down lover of the cross and that I will drip of your goodness, may the aroma of your presence change the atmosphere wherever I put my feet, and may addictions be broken, may the practice of voodoo be broken , may the blind see may the sick be healed may families be reunited, may children be saved and brought to you and into your loving arms. Lord Thank you for your goodness, And continue to go before me . Hallelujah God for all that your doing , May I continue to Press In And Press On and Love unconditionally.
