Arrival day journal

Here we are on arrival day! Thank you God! Jesus this is so good! Thank you so much for bringing us all to Haiti for a time such as this! Thank you so much that you have fulfilled the words that you have spoken to me. Thank you that you said that I would come to Haiti with YWAM, and that I would lead a prayer movement starting in Haiti and going to America with a banner of intimacy and love. Jesus I thank you so much that you're so much more committed to me than I could ever be to you! I ask God that you would continue to give me such divine revelation about your will during this time Jesus! You're so good God! Father of glory would you show me even more the way that you love me and the way that you love these students. Thank you Jesus that every single student has been bought with a price, that you loved me even before I knew who you were, and you love them even before they love you. Thank you that they've come to this DTS and are here for such a time as this! Jesus its so exciting to be alive right now! Thank you so much that we could be the generation to which you return! Father I ask that you would continue to show us what's happening worldwide Jesus! God we want to get caught up in the global fiery movement of your spirit bringing the Church to greater levels of glory!

Father I thank you that we have been given such an amazing opportunity to disciple these amazing students, and I know that the staff is going to learn so much more in the process! God I ask that we would be filled with your spirit even more Jesus! Fill us up God with such an amazing encounter of your presence Jesus, show us the way of love, that we would die to ourselves every single day so that would be able to live in us! Jesus we really do love to be dead, because its then that we are truly alive! God make us alive by being dead!

Jesus thank you so much that you're so good! I thank you that there is none like you! I ask that above all that you would give us yourself! God we really do need to have dove's eyes for only you Jesus! I ask that you would help us Jesus just to be so fixed on you Jesus! God show us the way of love, show us what that looks like Jesus! Father of glory let us be so consumed with you above all else God! Let us be consumed by you Jesus! Lets us be consumed by your eyes of blazing fire! You are the one we want, you are the one we need, Jesus would you let us see more of who you are God! Thank you Jesus!

The Pursuit of intimacy

Life is all about intimacy with Jesus. God keeps teaching me that again and again. The reason we were created was for intimacy, and at the end of the age God will come and make his dwelling among men, and we will see him face to face!
God is doing something world-wide from what I've seen and heard. He is calling His bride to intimacy, to seek His face and His heart as our chief pursuit, our one thing like David said (Psalm 24:7): “One thing have I asked of the Lord... that I may dwell in the house of the Lord... to gaze upon the beauty of the Lord.” This is radically changing the way we do missions, and the way we live our lives. God is stirring many people to give a large majority of their time solely to seeking the Lord with prayer and fasting, and the results worldwide are amazing!
I've recently heard so many testimonies of people getting set free, delivered and saved as a result of prayer and fasting, worship and just flat out passion for the tangible presence of God. My friend was just telling me of a major awakening at Lee University because of lots of prayer and fasting, and the awakening resulted in many people turning to God in a greater way at the Christian university. She told me that students were so hungry for God that they wanted to come together and worship every single night!
On an outreach to Iceland, a Fire and Fragrance DTS outreach felt led to do 7 days of literally unbroken worship and intercession. As a result, there was a lesbian couple that came to the place where they were worshiping and both got so encountered by the love of God that they gave their hearts to Jesus right there!
In a Muslim country, there was another Fire and Fragrance team that did a few days of unbroken worship and intercession. As a result, about 4 of their Muslim friends came into the places of worship and encountered the Holy Spirit and became so excited that one of them gave their lives to Jesus right there on the spot!
Amazing things are happening when we make the manifest presence of God our primary pursuit, and biblically and historically God's presence and Holy Spirit are poured out when the church comes together for worship and prayer, seeking His face in unity, just like in the book of Acts.
So we are pressing into God for the fullness of His power to be displayed in this DTS, and I would love for you to join us! I also want to encourage you to grab your christian friends, find a time and place and just start engaging with the God that loves you so much that He died for you! We can see the glory of God cover the earth like the waters cover the see, and we really could see Jesus come back in our lifetime!
Thank you so much for your prayers and may God bless you in the pursuit of Him.
