Countdown to the move –day 3
How are you today? 3 more days before our first “official” service @ 13550 H 290 W! Last night, (Wed Recharge) we had a powerful time of prayer and worship in the log cabin and the glory of God came in like a flood. Ps Joe and I got hit with the joy like we haven’t had in a long time! Thank the Lord for His joy! I tell you—that is what the world needs. When things get heavy and life seems unbearable—you need a good dose of the joy of the Lord!
As we were being prayed for last night, the Lord spoke a word to us that went something like this: “This is all I want you to do. Yield to me, trust me—I don’t need your help. I just need you to yield and let me work through you. Let no man (or woman) say, ‘see what I have done’, but it’s by My Spirit says the Lord.”
And friends, that is how we accomplish anything big for God! We just simply yield ourselves and put our faith in His ability! It has nothing to do with our ability but it has all to do with our faith! I love the NCV translation of Hebrews 11:1 that says, “Faith means being sure of the things we hope for and knowing that something is real even if we do not see it.”
Are you believing God for some big things? Is your faith being tested? Remember that God is working in you so He can work through you and He wants to show Himself strong on your behalf. Trusting Him is the key. I love the old hymn that says, “Jesus, Jesus how I trust Him, how I’ve proved Him o’er and o’er. Jesus, Jesus, precious Jesus, oh for grace to trust Him more!”
Today, the team is getting the portables ready to use for classrooms and studio and dirt has been hauled in to begin the foundation on the floor of the tent. Pray for good weather over the next several days. We really do need dry weather to finish the floor so we can bring in the stage and finish the trussing for lights. The temporary sign went up today on the front of the property and it’s a big one…I don’t think anyone could miss it!
Would you agree in prayer with us for supernatural strength for our staff? Many of the team have been burning the candle at both ends. Some teach or work in the offices during the day and then help all afternoon and evening. We are praying that God’s grace will be sufficient and that God will give them 100 fold for their investment of time, talent and resources into the Kingdom of God! We have the greatest staff on the face of the earth! Thank you Jesus!
We will close for now and update you with more details tomorrow. Thanks for praying with us. It really means so much!
Blessings,
Ps Joe and Becky and the team
