I just have to take a moment to testify to the goodness of God in the land of the living, i think many will be blessed!
Our new friends, DeAnn and Christian gave up they're comfortable lives back in Milwaukee, Wisconsin and moved to Kansas city for FMA. After they got here, they realized that they didn't have as much money put away as they thought, and their funds quickly ran out.
We have gotten to know them really well over the past few weeks, and about two weeks ago, they sat with us and told us they literally had no idea where they were going to get the money to pay the rent. So we agreed to pray with them for God's provision.
Well, a few days later, Christian told us that the IHOP kitchens had accepted his application from among 40 others-he got a job! A not only a job, but in an atmosphere where God would be glorified and it would work around our crazy school schedule! They were so thrilled!
So that was break through number one, break through number two came today.
Jeremy was in the prayer room this morning, and felt God pulling him towards Christian, that maybe he needed to talk about something. Christian ended up breaking down, and saying that they needed some serious breakthrough in their finances, though the job was an answer to prayer, he started working on an off week and wouldn't receive a pay check in time to pay his bills. So they went to the back, and Jeremy spoke whatever words God gave him to say over Christian. They prayed, and Christian was set free from relying on himself for money. They both came to the radical realization of how completely God wants control of your life and everything in it.
The main focus this morning in our prayer set, was that 'this is that day for break through, and this is the day for answered prayers'. So with that resonating in our spirits, we headed to our next class.
Not 45 minutes later, we're in our practicum, and Corey Russell is speaking to us just giving us some new announcements, and all of the sudden, he pulls a envelope our of his pocket and asked if Christian would come up front. In total confusion, Christian went forward. Corey told him that someone gave him the envelope, with Christian's name on it, and asked him to pass it along.
I'm not sure how much was in it-but that envelope was THICK!!! Can i just say that God provides for us!?
Even though He lets us be stretched, and waits until the eleventh hour, He will provide.
Just one or many testimonies to come of the goodness of God!
He is so good!
On a personal note, i received a vision today, that i feel is for the church in America.
God put a heavy emphasis in my heart while crying out for California, that 'it's not too late'. If we'd only turn to Him, who knows but that He might not relent and leave a blessing in the place of judgment? (Joel 2:14)
As i was meditating on the word, i saw the U.S. laid out before me. Two hands rose up from either end of the nation, reaching towards heaven. They were covered with blood, with the sins of our nation.
The set continued on, and i cried out for mercy for our nation. And God kept telling me; "it's not too late".
And then i saw as we (the church) raised our hands, repented and turned away from wickedness, God washed ours hands of the sinful blood and covered our clean hands with the blood of the lamb.
There is power in the name of Jesus.
Beloved it's not too late!
Return.
