Porsche 911

Our first mission for us Kings occurred this weekend. Half of the "troops" went to University of Connecticut ministering prophetically and interpreting dreams. This one girl had quite a literal dream, being in a cathedral looking at huge stain class windows, God comes out of a stain glass, puts HIS arms around shaking her saying "do you believe me now?" I don't think you can get more clearer than that.

The other company went to Natick Mass. to a healing conference. A traveling minister gifted in miraculous healing came to minister to the MetroWest Bridge Church. First night he healed people in the congregation. One lady had her deaf left ear mostly healed. A man's hurt knee was strengthen and many others. The last day we went praying for people on the streets. First we went straight to the Emergency room. Three baseball players had injuries that we prayed for. At the mall we prayed for this amazing woman at the parking lot who had a limp, when done she walked totally fine.

Though these healings may sound amazing, I wanted more. Hearing what Jesus did and hearing stories that are going on now, especially in other countries, in comparision I was disappointed. There is more. Don't get me wrong I'm glad for what happened, but if you drive a Porsche 911 and only take turns and accelerate slowly. You'll never get the fullness out of it. I know my God is more capable and more extraodinary. I believe in His greater potential. The question is am I ready for it?

It's warm and I'm glad

Spring, When Kings go out to Fight

Now is the start of Spring Trimester, Its the last time to be a student here. After this there are many possiblilities that I could do:
Help out with staffing here next year.
Go to Vancouver, Canada to help start Streams Academy there.
Or even help out with Streams in Europe, if they need help.
I feel that my options are finally narrowing down, before that list was huge with all sorts of possibilities.

This trimester I'm very excited. Already four days into it, I feel a difference. The group seems closer now. I'm interacting more with people that I usually don't spend much time with here. We are more cheerful and happy. After going through the crushing processes of a Prophet (theme of the winter) we are now rising like Kings (theme of the spring) as Spring springs forth. Happy Kings at that.

We are now in charge, preparing everything from the logistics to the ministry of outreaches we go on. This is a big deal. We are no longer going on for the ride, we are creating the ride. During the week our groups prepare for the outreach, but we also are going to take the 104 which focuses on tearing down strongholds in our life. A video series we'll be watching called "The Truth Project" focuses what God intended for all aspects from Art, Philosophy, Politics, everything. Its a "Focus on the Family production" but it actually is pretty well done. We'll see how it goes.
