Healing Wings

Malachi 4:2

It was another ordinary day. A day that was just like all the other days. The sun was shining brightly in the sky and the breeze gently glided between the people. There were men and women, young and old, and all were gathered together in an ordinary and meaningless place on another regular day.

Suddenly, there was a shift in the atmosphere. The ordinary day was interrupted by unfamiliar faces. Their faces had a different light, almost like that of the SON. The people living in the ordinary are having their life invaded by the extraordinary. These aliens quickly surrounded the people with love and kindness. Tending to their emotional, physical, and spiritual needs. Food for the body and food for the soul.

Then the aliens approached one of the older men in need. He clung to his cane and shifted all his body weight onto the only thing allowing him to stand. He explained to them that he needed knee replacements because his bone was on top of his other bone. You could see the anguish in his eyes. Gently they explained that God could heal him right there and then. His eyes brightened as hope and faith entered his heart. He confessed that he believed and that he knew God could heal him. Excited to see God move they all agreed on the result of full restoration. They placed their hands on his knees, believed and received his healing by faith in the name of the Savior Jesus Christ.

After the amen, there was a silence, even the winds seemed to calm. The man stood to his feet and whispered, “Me siento mejor!”, and he began to walk WITHOUT his cane. We praised and worshipped God together for what he did. In an instant Christ was what he clung to and the only thing allowing him to stand. Other people began to rejoice and believe in God’s healing power and the winds began to blow. Many others were healed as God rose with healing in his wings. The ordinary day was transformed into an extraordinary day in history for the people in Nicaragua.

THE WILDERNESS

I see very little life where I am. The land is dry and exhaustion creeps over my body. I search for shade in a cloudless sky as heat from the red hot sun pierces my flesh. Unrelentless and cruel conditions pound me every step I take. As I inhale the dry air, my tongue clings to the roof of my mouth. Exhaling gives me no relief. It's like fire escaping from a window in a burning building. I fall to my knees with my face caked with dust, tears, and sweat.

In the distance I spot a single broom tree. I manage to muster up what little strength I have left and hobble over to this pitiful looking tree. Underneath this poor excuse for a shelter I pray for my death. Wallowing in my tears and anguish I slowly drift into a deep sleep.
HEAT
THIRST
EXHAUSTION
NO LIFE, NO HOPE, GIVE ME DEATH!

Suddenly I'm awakened by a sharp jab and a familiar voice.
GET UP! EAT AND DRINK!
My eyes are swollen from crying as I try to make out the figure speaking to me. Above my head is some BREAD and and jar of WATER. I quickly consume the food and drift into sleep again.
And again I am awakened by the touch and familiar voice.
GET UP! EAT AND DRINK! YOU WILL NEED YOUR STRENGTH FOR THE LONG JOURNEY AHEAD!

The food restores me to full strength. I feel replenished, almost brand new. Pulling myself off the ground the figure vanishes before I could thank him for his hospitality. I begin to walk and don't stop until 40 days and nights later. I'm at the foot of a mountain. I begin to ascend the mountain and find shelter in a dark cave for the night.

A voice echos through the cave, WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE?
I responded, "I've been on fire for your name FATHER! I never stopped following you! People neglect you and do whatever they want! I am the only one of my kind left! The enemy is attacking me and it feels like you've left me!

GO OUT AND STAND ON THE MOUNTAIN, FOR I'M ABOUT TO PASS BY!

Then a great and powerful wind tore the mountain apart and shattered the rocks, but HE was not in the wind. Then there was a terrifying earthquake, but HE was not in the earthquake. Then came a roaring fire, but HE was not in the fire. And after the fire came a gentle whisper that pierced me to my soul. My heart melted and love consumed me as HIS mighty whisper drew me near to HIM.

MY SON, WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE?

PAUSE

This is where I am. My FATHER is teaching me some hard lessons in my wilderness. HE wants to teach me some new aspects of him and I need to endure. Right now the bread (the word) and water (the word, the spirit) is what I need to be eating for the journey ahead. The word is spirit and life, and without it I can't survive the wilderness. I praise God for HIM taking the time to make me more Christ-like. Jesus was wrought in the wilderness and I will be too.

This is my prayer...FATHER FEED ME YOUR WORD. FILL ME WITH YOUR BREAD OF LIFE AND LIVING WATER SO THAT I WILL BE STRONG ENOUGH FOR THE JOURNEY AHEAD. EVERYTHING AROUND IS AGAINST ME BUT GREATER IS HE WHO IS IN ME THAN HE THAT IS IN THE WORLD. IF YOU ARE WITH ME THEN WHO CAN BE AGAINST ME? FATHER THIS JOURNEY IS HARD BUT WITH YOU I KNOW ALL THINGS ARE POSSIBLE. EVEN NOW I FEEL YOU RESTORING ME! HALLELUJAH!!! I REBUKE FEAR AND DOUBT AND CAST IT OUT IN THE NAME OF JESUS! I WILL SPEAK WITH YOUR POWER AND AUTHORITY! YOUR WORDS WILL FLOW THROUGH ME LIKE A MIGHTY WIND THAT RIPS APART THE HARDEST OF HEARTS, AN EARTHQUAKE THAT SHAKES THE FOUNDATIONS OF THE SOUL, A FIRE THAT IGNITES THE SPIRIT, AND THE GENTLE WHISPER THAT WILL BARE WITNESS TO YOUR LOVE! I LOVE YOU FATHER AND MAY I BRING GLORY TO YOUR MAJESTIC AND HOLY NAME! I GIVE YOU ALL THE PRAISE AND HONOR! I BELIEVE AND RECEIVE ALL THESE REQUESTS BY FAITH AND SEAL THEM WITH THE POWER OF THE HOLY SPIRIT. I PRAY ALL THESE THINGS IN THE NAME ABOVE ALL NAMES, JESUS CHRIST, AMEN! AMEN! AMEN!

WILDMAN IN THE FERTILE WILDERNESS

IN THE THRONE ROOM

2 Prince's of the KING set out to seek the face of their HEAVENLY FATHER. In preparation they bathed themselves in the blood of THE LAMB to be viewed as worthy to set foot into the presence of the HOLY ONE. As they approached the gates of the THRONE ROOM they quieted themselves in prayer, humbling themselves before entering into that GLORIOUS place. We knocked at the door with PRAISE and ADORATION until we were ushered in by ANGELS from on HIGH. Entering in with boldness as son's of the KING, we honored our FATHER with FLAGS OF FIRE. The display of the declaration of HIS majesty ignited the room as the PRESENCE of GOD fell like a thick blanket covering the THRONE ROOM.

We layed our petitions at the KING'S feet and continued to worship his HOLY name. As we danced in HIS presence HE reviewed our requests. HE took delight in our actions of love towards HIM. Raising HIS hand I silenced myself and bowed low with my face to the ground. My KING spoke in a majestic tone and commanded me to GO!

go? where do YOU want me to go my KING?

WHERE I SEND YOU!

I continued in my posture of humility and as I did our KING lifted his hand to the other prince. The other prince bowed low to the ground as well. We continued to worship and converse with our FATHER as HE imparted vision and words to each of us. HIS messages were whispered in the ears of each prince in secrecy. Our hearts melted as HIS voice soothed and enflammed our spirits to new dimensions. Then the KING ordered 2 of HIS heavely hosts to robe the princes in HOLY garments. I felt revived as the cloak fell upon my body, but I couldn't see the color.

FATHER, what color is this cloak?

My brother answered, WHITE.

THE KING SPOKE, I AM SETTING YOU BOTH APART FOR A SPECIFIC CALL! THESE GARMENTS WILL COVER YOU WITH A HOLY FIRE THAT NOONE CAN EXTINGUISH! A FIRE THAT WILL ALWAYS BURN WITH PASSION AND ZEAL! GO! GO, WHERE I SEND YOU MY SONS!

where my KING?

My brother answered, our FATHER whispered to me water, showed me and map, and spoke south america.

Amazed that our FATHER was revealing to us two separate messages unknown to the other, but somehow were the same we fell prostrate. We weeped and kissed HIS feet in humility, feeling unworthy and at the sametime honored to be seen as worthy. We began to praise HIM louder than before, because HIS message was more precious then gold to us. Shouts of victory and declaration arose in our acceptance of this new mission.

HOW GREAT, HOW AWESOME IS HE!!! WORTHY IS THE LAMB!!! THERE IS NOONE LIKE YOU!!! WE WILL GO AND FULFILL YOUR PURPOSE IN YOUR NAME!!! HALLELUJAH!!!

As we left HIS THRONE ROOM abounding in the JOY of the LORD, we knew that the road ahead would be decorated with HIS signs, wonders, and miracles. We were ready to shout out the name of JESUS from the mountain tops, guided by the HOLY SPIRIT. HIS voice was so powerful, HIS presence was so thick, and HIS message was so clear. HE said GO! And we will GO!

Thank you FATHER for being a RIGHTEOUS KING who would speak words of LIFE to your sons. We are humbled and honored by YOUR presence. Continue to use us as we carry our YOUR will. We love YOU and thank YOU for everything YOU'VE done, are doing, and will do.


one of your PRINCES, the wildman of God "josiah"

WAKE UP CALL!!!

The CALL TO ARMS was made!!!
A single warrior stood at his post firm awaiting those who would answer. One by one men stepped out of the wilderness of the world. We gathered together in unity ready for war. This small group of elite soldiers clasped hands in prayer to allow the Holy Spirit to lead the way into battle. The electricity of passionate prayer surged through all of us as we agreed as ONE MAN.

NO TIME TO WASTE

We headed out to BETHEL TEMPLE to back up one of brother's family member in prayer. There was a heaviness in the place but we wouldn't allow that to stop us from breaking any barrier that stood in our way. As one of thier Commanders led us in our tactical approach in prayer I was given the honor to fight for a woman who was a spiritual mother to me. I could feel my Father's attention on our prayers as we claimed healing in Jesus the name above all names. After the power of prayer and agreement was unleashed we headed to a new location to do some more damage.

Deeper and deeper we headed in the concrete jungle to get to the heart of the city. As a unit we were transported above ground to a destination with signifcance for our growth as Men of God. We traveled a long distance and then settled at a place once used for public execution and a burial ground. Our plan was to publicly execute our flesh and bury our old nature in order to rise up as a new creation.

NO FLESH

ALL SPIRIT

Using the sWord of God we began to slash away and divide the soul from SPIRIT! One by one each man put to death and buried the sinful man and a metamorphasis took place, like a catepillar escaping its cocoon. The sight was glorious as the men cracked open the shell and stepped out SPIRIT MEN armed with ARMOR OF LIGHT. We claimed the promise in Ephesians 5....

WAKE UP, O SLEEPER,
RISE FROM THE DEAD,
AND CHRIST WILL SHINE ON YOU!

We were awakened to a greater degree. Every spiritual sense was sharpened and heighted to a supernatrual level. Shouts of victory rang out in the night as Mighty Men of Valor claimed thier identity. Each man had a chance to encourage and affirm other brothers as an extra boost for the battles to come. We were blessed and the fire of the Lord flowed through our veins with more zeal than ever before. At the very end we ended the journey how we started it...IN PRAYER. The darkness was put on notice that we are coming for it in the name of Jesus Christ the Light of the World!

WE WILL FORCEFULLY ADVANCE THE KINGDOM OF GOD AND WILL NOT CEASE!!!

RAW AND UNCUT

Friday, March 13th ignited a transformation.

Saturday, March 14th fueled the flames of sanctification.

Sunday, March 15th the WILDFIRE OF REVIVAL IS UNLEASHED!!!

Heaven's gates were opened wide as the Lord inhabited the next level of praise bursting from his children. The angels danced around us with their swords feeling right at home to the point that pairs of angels accompanied every individual that expressed themselves on stage. They veiled some with protection while others were cloaked in their wings. The altar was flooded with seekers of God's face. Broken and battered by the world they made the choice to say enough is enough. Tears poured out as we humbled ourselves at the altar as Heaven's gaze was fixed upon IN THE LIGHT MINISTRIES PHILADELPHIA!!! HALLELUJAH!!!

Our Pastor flowed in sync with the Holy Spirit in a powerful blend of conviction and separation. Spiritually he drew the line in the sand and the challenge was made.
Matthew 11:12, John 2:13, Jeremiah 1:4-10, Ezekiel 2, 3:4-11, 3:16-27, Numbers 25:1-13

It was a raw and uncut message about being active in our zealous attitude towards sin. It came across crystal clear, OUR CHURCH WILL NOT TOLERATE SIN!!!
We will be like so many in the bible that did not stand by and let sin just have it's way with God's people. We hate the sin and like Christ still love on the people. As for the people who want to hold to their wicked ways, Pastor Jamie wanted to say this "Don't let the door hit ya, where the good Lord split ya!" AMEN AMEN AMEN

In the word I read about men like Josiah, who was a king who defiled the things that tried to defile God. And it also speaks of the Levites who where men of conviction. They were set apart in an act of obedience when they went throughout the camp of Israel slaughtering their brothers and friends who decided to co-exist with sin. We need to pay more attention to how Holy God is not allow those things to defile who we are in him.

Why are we so scared to be disliked? Do you want to hold on to this temporary life? The word of God says those who look to save their life will LOSE IT!!! I will not be a man who holds the hand of sin and tries to make peace with it. "I did not come to bring peace, but a sword." says Jesus and I adopt that as my own personal motto. I will be a man who pierces himself with the sword and separate my soul from SPIRIT, and walk boldly in my rightful place.

As my Pastor awakened the watchmen with word's of FIRE from the Lord, we ended the the time in prayer. During the prayer I could feel our intercessory prayers guarding our Pastor as angels fully armed encircled him. As their spears were raised in the air in a hedge of protection above his head I wanted to join the ranks of heaven for my leader. I stepped into my position and began to wave a flag of fire letting the enemy know,
YOU WILL SEE ME!
YOU WILL NOT TOUCH HIM!
NOT ON MY WATCH!
My brothers and sisters joined me and the Spirit led us in a powerful time of REVIVAL and SIN STOMPING.

It felt good to deliver the enemy a HOLY GHOST beat down. He thought he had us against the ropes and we called to our Daddy and HE was like I'll hold em you hit em! HA HA, it was beautiful. Dearly beloved I want to encourage you with these words. This is just the beginning of what God has to offer his people. Let's get ready for the wave of what God is about to do in you, our body, our city, our state, our nation, and our planet in these last days.

May the God of signs, wonders, and miracles show up in your life for the rest of your days.
Amen Amen Amen

TIRED

In my walk I've reached a critical point where I'm TIRED!!!
Let me explain the reason for my weariness. Personally I've read the word the same way, sung praise and worship the same way, and prayed the same way for to long. I'M TIRED OF IT!!!
I am sick and tired of the old NEW me.
I NEED ANOTHER LEVEL!
I NEED ANOTHER BREAKTHROUGH!
I NEED TO BE CLOSER TO MY DADDY MORE THAN EVER BEFORE!
Right now I'm in starvation mode when it comes to God. I'm so hungry for his glory that I'll die if I don't get it. It pains my spirit to not be in his presence.
I MUST HAVE HIM!
WHATEVER IT TAKES, I'LL DO IT!
NO OBSTACLE WILL STAND IN THE WAY OF GETTING MORE OF HIM!
I can no longer settle for reading, praising, and praying the same way. My spirit is on a search in the depths of God to find revelation. My passion and zeal is like an unquenchable fire that roars out of control. It's untamed and yearns to join in the fires of Heaven in order to become a WILD FIRE ON EARTH! HALLELUJAH!!!

So my prayer is this, MY YAWEH, MY ABBA, COME DOWN FROM YOUR THRONE AND CONSUME WITH THE FIRE OF YOUR HOLY SPIRIT! LET YOUR GLORY CRUSH ME BENEATH IT'S AWESOME POWER! I EMPTY MYSELF OF MYSELF AND BECOME A VESSEL READY TO BE STRETCHED WITH EVERYTHING, EVERYTHING, EVERYTHING THAT HEAVEN HAS TO OFFER! PURIFY MY MIND, EYES, EARS, MOUTH, HANDS, AND HEART! TRANSFORM ME! RESTORE ME! RENEW ME! I'M SICK OF WORDLY THINGS AND I LONG FOR YOUR SUPERNATURAL TOUCH! DROWN ME IN A FLOOD OF YOUR PRESENCE! HURRY FATHER! EVERY SECOND WITHOUT YOUR VOICE IS HOPELESSNESS! SAVE ME! I NEED YOU! YOU ARE MY EVERYTHING AND MY ONLY! I WILL WAIT FOR YOU TO RESPOND QUICKLY WITH A WHIRLWIND OF FIRE AND YOUR CHARIOT! WRAP ME IN YOUR ARMS AND COMFORT MY SPIRIT! DADDY YOU ARE GOOD AND I THANK YOU FOR ANSWERING MY PRAYER! I LOVE YOU MORE AND MORE EACH SECOND OF EVERY DAY! YOU ARE HOLY! YOU ARE PERFECT! YOU ARE FAITHFUL! YOU ARE LOVE! GLORY TO THE ONLY ONE WHO DESERVES PRAISE AND HONOR! HALLELUJAH! selah

in the POWERFUL name of my MESSIAH, REDEEMER, AND FRIEND;
JESUS THE CHRIST
amen amen amen

ALL UP IN YOUR FAITH!!!

I want to take this time to get all up in your FAITH!

Jesus says if you have FAITH the size of a mustard seed and DO NOT DOUBT you can say to a moutain move, and it has to move. The word says without FAITH it is impossible to please God. People, FAITH without works is dead! What are you doing with this powerful force called FAITH? We should be those type of believers that call things that are not as though they were! Do you see an area in your life that's dead and lifeless? Speak life into it in FAITH and without DOUBT and tell it to live again in the NAME OF JESUS! We have to much power in the blood of Jesus to just sit around doing nothing with our FAITH. With the Holy Spirit helping us we can do ALL things.

Come on! Wake up!

As I was on the bus this morning I saw this ad that said HIS potential is your RESPONSIBILITY and it woke me up. GOD'S potential to touch this world is MY responsibility! WHOA....I had to dwell on that and soak it in to my spirit. God wants to move freely and reveal himself to this dying world and if we don't apply our FAITH in his word we're neglecting our responsibility.

A good friend sent me a text this morning on Mark 16:15-18 which tells the disciples what they were responsible to do, before Christ ascended. My friend flipped the script when he asked, If you were in God's court how much evidence, using this scripture, would be in your life of what you confess to believe? I was convicted. According to this scripture I've been wasting my Christianity. Not to condemn myself, but it helps me realize I have been given his POTENTIAL and I'm in charge of seeing it being revealed to the world.

Maybe I'm the only one who thinks that I need to step my game up, but his words are like fire in my bones and I have to release it or burn out. I challenge myself as well as my fellow believers to just take in the statement of HIS POTENTIAL IS MY RESPONSIBILITY, selah........
Reach in and dust off your FAITH and rebuke those DOUBTS and start to speak HIS POTENTIAL. FAITH is the KEY to unlock HIS POTENTIAL. Revelation 3:7-8 is a promise to believers who keep God's word, that there will be a door opened that noone can shut. God has opened up Heavenly access to all who WILL NOT deny his name, but we have to walk through!

As image bearers of Christ, WE WALK BY FAITH, NOT BY SIGHT! So, let us walk through that open door of Heaven with our renewed FAITH and begin to bring out the POTENTIAL of what God can do on this earth. We have unlimited access to his throne room and we can come boldy before him and BELIEVE that whatever was ask of our DADDY will be given to us. This message spoke to me and put a pep in my step and a quiver in my liver and I hope it blesses you too.

I GOT A NEW ATTITUDE!!! And I will have an unwavering FAITH and start to be RESPONSIBLE to reveal HIS POTENTIAL! Amen amen

PowerHouse of Prayer

I noticed a calm in the night, yet there was something starting to intensify, but I couldn't put my finger on it. As I walked through the door the air was electric as I greeted fellow soldiers ready to engage in spiritual warfare. I could see the anticipitation in their eyes and I sensed it in their spirits. We started off by gathering in a cirlce, as a fellow warrior started the time off with PRAYER. As we became unified we began to sway like tree tops blown by a cool breeze. Suddenly the small individual voices began to combine and form one big POWERFUL VOICE.

And like that there was a shift in the room as we ignited our souls with PRAYER and exploded into the spiritual dimension. It was a blood bath as we all began to crucify our flesh and lay our blood and guts at the floor of the altar. Then the FIRE OF THE LORD came down and consumed the carcasses of sin and all that was left were piles of bones and ashes.

rise.........
rise..........
RISE!!!!!!!!!

From the ashes of the altar rose up a mighty army refined in the flames of sanctification. An army not of flesh and bone, but of truth and spirit. One by one a holy roar began to build up and then thundered as they lifted up the NAME OF JESUS. The name above all names! Some were in a posture of submission, some in a posture freedom, but all were in the position of glorifying the lamb of God. The heavens were bombarded with the sounds of his children aching for his manifest presence. Then our Pastor stepped on the scene and rallied the troops to intensify their efforts and focus it all on each other for the deliverance from our earthly bondages. People shouted as we PRAYED for one another and strongholds crumbled before the sons and daughters of the Most High.

VICTORY....VICTORY....VICTORY IN JESUS NAME!!!!

The Holy Spirit continued to move like a wave on the shore, back and forth through the body of believers. Some prayed in the spirit, some waved flags, others layed prostrate before the Lord. Real warriors contend for more and we did just that. After letting the joy of the Lord build up in our hearts we knew it was time. So as ONE we UNLEASHED IT!!!

It was like a flood of worship pouring out of every individual there. We danced like David and shouted his praise with all our might. True freedom is a beautiful thing to witness and the site was priceless. As we were waving flags and leaping for joy I could feel our Father dancing among us. In emptying ourselves of ourselves we allowed him to fill us with a new level of his Holy Spirit. The victory is ours in Christ Jesus and we claim that promise with shouts of praise and freedom.

This day we were United and became a POWERHOUSE OF PRAYER.

AMEN AMEN

Jezebel and the Spirit of Python

It started with a glimpse into the spiritual, but the image was burned in my mind. I dismissed it and thought it was just my imagination. A vision of a greenish-yellow snake crawling on the stage of our new church building. Later on the next day I told Pastor Jamie and he explained to me that I should've said something when I first saw it. I vowed to myself that the next time I see something I wouldn't hesitate.

What was that vision? Who was it for? What did it all mean? All questions that soon would be answered.

I was told that it was the spirit of python. It represented the spirit of divination, witchcraft, and rebellion. It's a spirit that squeezes the life (mental, physical, emotional, and spiritual) out of an individual or the body. Just when you think you can take a breath or get some relief the grip is tightened and the impartation and life is squeezed out again.

Our body was in a spiritual battle with this particular spirit and getting hit hard all around the board. My spirit was on high alert and I wanted to understand, so I stayed in the word and in prayer with my Father.

Wednesday night the spirit was revealed. Then thursday night the men dealt with the spirit head on in a powerful time of prayer at Jaime's house. IN THE NAME OF JESUS EVERY ENEMY HAS TO FLEE!!! The Holy Spirit moved and settled where we were and everyone was touched. That friday night one of our own was at battle with this spirit, one on one and was able to be delivered as God used our Pastor to set him free in the name of Jesus. On saturday morning a couple of the men and I surrounded our brother in prayer to restore vision and a new level of annointing in his life and it was awesome.

But Sunday morning war broke out in the spiritual....

As I was in worship I felt the intensity of the enemy and saw the spirit of python again. This time it was bigger and stronger than before. It crawled on the stage and coilded up to gaurd itself and was preparing to strike. I told my Pastor right away. After that I felt in my spirit I needed to pray, but I needed some warriors by my side. I prayed for God to give me someone to pray with. As I walked and turned around at the same time my brother Carlos was getting up. Praise God. I called him over and let him know the situation as we went to the back rows of the church to pray. I called another one of our brothers Hakim to join us in prayer too. As we prayed and interceded I saw our spirits moving towards the python with swords in our hands. The spirit was agitated and started to get in position to strike. As our spirits surrounded the python I noticed legions of angels in the form of a V behind each one of us. A powerful sight to see.

Pastor Jamie preached the story of Jehoshaphat and how the nation of Israel worshipped the one and only God. And as the people got into their positions to attack the end result was the people's praise in the midst of battle caused God to move and win the battle for them. Then he spoke about Paul and Silas being beaten and thrown into jail and their praise caused God to set them free due to their unwavering love towards our Lord.

WHEN GOD INHABITS OUR PRAISE THE ENEMY WILL BE DESTROYED AND WE WILL BE SET FREE!!!

As the message was being brought the spirit of python began shrinking smaller and smaller. But I noticed that there was a darkness behind the spirit kind of like a curtain. I sensed in my spirit that there was something behind it.

At the end of the message my wife and Christine perfomed a dance and it created like a shield gaurding the people and the python attacked it, but couldn't get through. But it wasn't enough!!! God wanted more and I could feel it. After the dance was over Pastor Jamie ushered in a time of Praise and Worship to bring the presence of God among the people and the atmosphere shifted. I wept as the Holy Spirit came in and settled among us. God led me to the altar and as I prayed in tongues this tiny python spirit slithered towards me and stared into my eyes. It tried to intimidate me even in it's defeated state. I grabbed it and squeezed it like it did to our body of believers. God told me to pull out my sWord and cut it's head off. I was obdient and I felt the Holy Spirit's victory. I noticed at this time who was behind the curtain. It was the spirit of Jezebel (control and manipulation) and she was smiling at me. She was controlling and manipulating the spirit of python and increasing it's power. As I looked at her she began to laugh at me (US) then she spoke to me (US) and told me she'd be back. All I could do is answer back and I told her we'd be ready!!! And she disappeared behind the dark curtain.

I've never seen so much in the spiritual realm my whole walk, but it was for the body. We were in a spiritual battle and in our praises to our God, he won the battle for us. This is to encourage and acknowledge the as we were faithful and worshipped him the Holy Spirit came in and was thick among us. Even as we were in our time of praise, as I moved I saw the Holy Spirit and it was all around like a shinning cloud of bright blue. I want you people to know that God gave us a major victory. Be encouraged because we are powerful and mighty in our relationship with a living God. He loves us so much and when we put him first we show him that we want the same thing. I love you guys and I can't wait to see what God does in your lives as you remain faithful.

May the Almighty God of heaven and earth continue to mold you into mighty men and women for his kingdom forever and ever.

AMEN AMEN
