To God be the glory! We finally got everything moved out of our apartment in Locust Grove and up here to Covington at "The Loft". We actually turned in our apartment keys on Sunday, the 28th, which was also the final day of our outreach in Atlanta. In the middle of all this activity, our ministry van, which has almost 250,000 miles on it broke down for the third time. We were able to use it during the outreach this past weekend, but the transmission was slipping pretty severely the whole time. We are trusting God to supply us with a newer, better van soon. He is faithful, and has already begun to lay this need on the heart of many of those of you who love us and believe in what we do here in the ATL. We are not worried at all. God has this, amen?!
The outreach this past weekend was wonderful! We had people here from South Dakota, Charlotte, and different parts of Atlanta staying with us during the outreach. We also had others who met with us in downtown Atlanta as we hit the streets to minister. Several people surrendered their lives to the Lord Jesus during the outreach, and there were people who received physical healing. Also, the 13 year old daughter of one of the ladies who came from Charlotte received salvation and was filled with the Holy Spirit!
We took time to equip those who came in the areas of ministering God's healing power to the sick and afflicted on the street, intercessory prayer for the lost, and how to win souls right out on the streets. We also engaged in open-air preaching during the outreach, and saw people surrender to Jesus Christ as a result.
We had two different people who serenaded us with gospel songs during the outreach, and a homeless couple actually ministered prophetically to two of our volunteers who came. "...God has chosen the foolish things of this world to confound the wise...that no flesh should glory in His presence."
One of the men who came down from South Dakota knew about our ministry here because he had received the baptism in the Holy Spirit as the result of watching a video I recorded and posted on GodTube several years ago called "Power From On High". (There have been people from all over the world who have received the baptism in the Holy Spirit as the reult of watching this same video. It cannot be viewed from a smartphone; only from a computer). He brought two of his friends with him who had also received the baptism in the Holy Spirit. The wives of these three men stayed together while their husbands were here for the outreach. Two of these women had already received the baptism in the Holy spirit, and while they were together, they prayer for the other one and she also received the baptism in the Holy Spirit!
We got to talk to all of them via Skype video, and they were very happy and excited!
We will have about twenty UGA students staying here in the big loft from January through March. Agree with us in prayer that God will give us divine appointments to minister to them, and that many of them will have their eyes opened, and will be turned from darkness to light, and from the power of Satan to God.
We want to schedule a large outreach sometime in April. This will give us the opportunity to equip the Saints for the work of the ministry, through miracles of healing, and through signs and wonders done in the mighty name of our Lord Jesus. Send me a message if you want to come or if you want to bring a team.
