50. Honduras 01.18.20

50. Having a wonderful time seeing the Lord work in the lives of the people here. I’m honestly having a very difficult time gathering the words needed to express the events of the past few days. Faith can move mountains. There hasn’t been one person that we have prayed for that hasn’t been healed.
The way this area is effected by both the glory of the Lord and the grips of the enemy is breathtaking and eye opening. I pray that the Lord continues to use us all in any way He deems necessary. You look to the left and see a beautiful beach and can take pictures that would make everyone believe they are in paradise. Then you walk a block and there are homes that are gated and have barbed wire protecting them. There are walls built around homes and churches. There are horses and cows walking around on the beach. There are wild dogs on the beach and in the streets. People ride bikes everywhere. Children are playing instruments in the streets for money. You don’t realize how fortunate you are.
What I also noticed was how much simpler life is here. They live to work, to eat and to keep a roof over their heads. They aren’t distracted by which toy they’re buying next. They aren’t rushing a thousand miles an hour from the time they wake up until the time they go to sleep. They appreciate things more than we do. The Lord yearns for the humble. I am blown away by this experience.

240. Back together again

  You know, it's hard when you're growing and walking things out in this life. We look at the world and we point out what's wrong, or what needs changed but we don't realize that the change within us is the most important change needed of all.  The Lord took me to a hallway today. The rooms were all white. In the first room I saw myself about 5 years old. I had crayons and paint and I was dancing to music, painting and coloring these beautiful pictures on the walls. I was praising the Lord and singing as loud as I could. In the second room I was a teenager. I was sitting at a desk. I had colored pencils lined up distinctly in a row, sorted by color. I was coloring on a piece of white paper making a neat picture of a hillside. On top of the hill sat a small white church with a view of the sunset. I had head phones on, jamming out the inside while my composure was quiet and still. In the third room I was in my 20's. I was seated at a dining table. I had a canvas and p...

121. The Hand that Feeds You

As I was praying last night I was interrupted with a vision. As I was on the floor with my head down I got the impression that I was no longer alone. I lifted my head and I was faced with the image of a vicious dog on the end of a very heavy chain. Almost Cujo style if you all remember that book/movie. There was so much anger, but when I looked into the eyes, really looked, all I could see was pain.  Then the Lord put on my heart that this vicious dog was once an innocent puppy. I saw the welping box and families with children picking up the puppies, loving on them and taking them home. Then there was one left. He was unwanted and never chosen. I began to see different stages of that dogs life in my mind like a movie. From being called worthless and left outside in the cold, hungry and shivering; to being beat for being excited and jumping up for attention when someone came by to drop off some food or water.  Every hand that puppy saw as it was growing up brought both nourishm...

120. Don’t get Distracted by the Shiny Things

I was listening to a bethel podcast this morning and I was blessed with a vision of a brick road. I’ll get to that in a bit but first I’ll brief you on the podcast. (link in the comments) The podcast had referenced the difference in the 1st, 2nd and 3rd heavens. It focused on making sure that we understand that we can view and discern all three realms. We are not meant to see only this one dimension. It was an eye opening teaching about making sure you ascend into the third heaven, seated with our Heavenly Father in order to find the right direction needed to conquer the battles in the other realms. That happens in prayer, if you let it. The three realms are this natural world (1st heaven), the spiritual warfare realm where the demonic dwells (2nd heaven), and the Lords kingdom (3rd heaven) where the enemy and all demonic forces have lost all authority have have zero power. I’ll have to learn more on all of that before I can actually elaborate in teaching, but I’ll tell you how this vi...
