Pressing On

We came to our current installation on a spiritual mission. Sadly, the leadership here is not on board with that mission. They don't want anything new. Just status quo. As we have worked to affect change here, we have been met with much resistance. That really surprised us.

There is such despair here. Suicides often. Marriages under attack. Hopelessness. We are living in desparate times. People are hungry for The Answer.

So, we began to pray. We joined forces with another couple and we began to learn about hearing God for our lives and for this ministry.

Miraculously, the Lord is sending reinforcements with big guns. They want to join us in our fight. They also want to offer The Answer, Jesus, to this hurting place.

There is strength in numbers. As we all join forces, we pray that the leadership will see that what we offer is what is desparately needed here. We don't want division, but are looking for the road to unity.

Please pray for us. Pray that we will be able to loosen Satans' grip on this post. Pray that our leadership will join with us in a united front against the enemy's attack. Pray that we will take back the ground that the enemy has stolen.

We will be diligent and we WILL claim victory for the Kingdom!

Jeremiah 29:4-7
...seek the welfare of the city where I have sent you into exile. And pray to the Lord on its behalf for in it you will find your welfare.

IIxII seek the peace of the city you have been called...only through the power and might of Christ can that take place. Be strong in the Lord and the power of His might!

I am rambling because I am so excited! PRAISE THE LORD!
