For two days, the Lord told us we weren’t to go on the roadside. He reminded us that from the beginning of the ministry, He said he would protect and provide for us as long as we asked for and obeyed His daily instructions of where to be and at what time. This time He was protecting us by keeping us off the roadside, that there was someone who would stop that would not be good. TY, Father! Last night a young man came to the house to give us a bid on some work our insurance company is requiring. Emil had his Free Prayer shirt on and he had seen us on the roadside! Emil got to minister to him before he left!

“I thought I’d seen it all!”
That’s what the woman said as she got out of her car, pointing to our sign, and laughing! We talked for a long time, exchanging stories about the Lord and His goodness! When we prayed for her, Emil saw God’s golden bowls full of of rose petals and every rose petal was anointed with one of her tears. She began to cry as she quietly repeated, “Rose petals!” The bowls tipped and were falling back to her. The Lord said, “I collect all your tears, every tear you’ve ever cried. Every prayer you thought I never heard and every prayer you thought I never answered, I’m sending back to you right now.” It turned out, she had just asked Him about that the night before and asked Him to show her that He heard her prayers. She then showed us on her phone a picture her daughter had sent her which had made her cry. It was a picture of a girl walking out of a brightly lit cave up to her knees in rose petals that had fallen from the ceiling of the cave. God knows what is meaningful to each person who stops on the roadside!
On the Roadside
We set up on a roadside pull-out just west of Florissant on Hwy 24 for the first time 2 days ago. We prayed with a woman who was steeped in New Age and universalism. Her extreme reaction when she heard the words of the Lord to her was like nothing we had ever seen before, and we know she experienced HIs presence like nothing she had ever experienced before! At the food pantry in Manitou Springs yesterday, Emil got to pray with 3 people and spoke at length with one young guy about Jesus. Today we were back on the roadside when a veteran pulled in. An awesome guy who loves the Lord, he was filled with the word of God and today got filled with the Holy Spirit as well, and his back was completely healed!
Rest of the story!
Here’s the mattress man’s story since we forgot to put it in the newsletter! Emil asked if he needed prayer and he said, “Yes! I can always use prayer. I’m messed up all the way from the bottom of my feet to my head!” He broke his neck when he was in his 20’s and has had very little feeling since then in his feet and legs but he can walk. He suffered nerve damage from the 30 surgeries he endured when his intestines ruptured last year so he didn’t have much feeling from his waist to his neck. Also his body was completely toxic, causing damage to organs and restrictions to his breathing. He said, “If it wasn’t for the Lord, I know I wouldn’t be here. I’m saved, baptized and filled with the Holy Ghost!” Emil stood at his feet and told him to just keep laying down and we would for his health and also that the Lord would show him which mattress to buy! He laughed. Emil laid his hands on his feet and the man folded his hands on his chest and stared at the ceiling as we began to pray. We asked the Holy Spirit to fill him up and he breathed in deeply and with a loud sigh, closed his eyes. We prayed for all the damage to his body to be restored and all injuries to be reversed. He opened his eyes and asked, “What are you doing to my feet?” Emil said, “I just have my hands on them.” He said, “My feet and my legs are getting really hot! They’ve been cold ever since my accident.” Emil said, “Well, every time you feel something good, just say, ‘Thank You, Lord! More power!'” So he loudly proclaimed that! He moaned and repeated it as we continued to pray. He said intense heat followed by electricity started at his feet and went all the way up to his chin. Then he started getting feeling back in his feet, legs, abdomen and chest. When we finished, he said he felt such peace and was just enjoying the presence of the Lord. He took Emil’s hand in both of his and firmly shook it and said, “I’m getting all my feeling back!” When we left a few minutes later, he was still laying on the bed with his hands crossed on his chest and his eyes closed, moaning and saying, “Thank You, Lord! More power!”
“Be at the mattress store at 10am!”
Even though it’s been stormy this week, God is still telling us what time and what place! Monday morning, Emil heard we were to be at a certain mattress store in Colorado Springs at 10am, a place we had never been. Sure enough, when we got there, only one other customer was in the store and God lit him up. As we walked toward him, he said to Emil, “I don’t know what to buy” which started the conversation. The man had undergone over 30 surgeries and complications. When we prayed for him, his body began to tingle all over and feeling came back into his body! Details in our upcoming newsletter!

What road and what time, Lord?!
We’ve prayed for 8 people and talked to several others since Emil’s last day at work on May 2nd, many from wearing our Free Prayer shirts. But yesterday we received the go-ahead from the sheriff’s department that we can set up on any public roadside that’s safe for us and traffic. Thank You, Lord! Monday we found several spots so now we just start asking daily, “What road and what time, Lord?” We’re excited!
“You got guts!”
Prayed for 2 women at the food outreach in Manitou Springs today plus broke up a screaming match between two women in line and Emil talked to each of them separately about forgiveness and the love of Jesus. Both calmed down and thanked him. Then went to Walmart and a guy walked up and said, “You gotta lot of guts to wear a shirt like that!” Asked if he needed prayer and he said yes! The Holy Spirit read his mail and afterward he said “Wow! That was freaky! Everything you prayed was right on the money!” God is so good!
Dream Interpretation
We were asked by a guy at our church if we would do a Dream Interpretation booth with him at a New Age gathering coming up. We will tell people it is done through the power of the Holy Spirit. Details to come. Reaching those who are searching for the One they don’t know they are searching for. We’re looking to make Jesus famous again in the USA.
Full Time Ministry as of May 4!
Emil’s last day at work was Wednesday. We are now officially in full-time ministry again! God opened opportunities for us on Thursday and Friday. We will have details in our newsletter next week.
Today we wore our Free Prayer shirts to a festival in Canon City, about an hour from us, and had a couple of conversations while there! It feels good to be doing what we know God called us to do.
We are still actively fundraising to raise our partner base. Please check out our Fundraising Meter page for updates on our progress.
