Attended the service last night at the Vineyard in Mason City where we worshiped and watched Heidi Baker’s amazing and inspiring Compelled by Love DVD.  Ended the evening with ministry and prophetic prayer. An incredible Good Friday evening with God’s love manifested through the people around us! Tired today! Didn’t get home till 2am. And did not get to sleep till 3am but well worth it!

That’s a question we frequently ask people coming for prayer ministry. We spent four hours this week with a believer who finally recognized what great attack she had been under for several years, all because the enemy had seen at one point in her life how powerful she could be and needed to put an end to that. Satan only comes to kill, steal and destroy, and his assignment against her was all of these things. When she saw that, she GOT MAD and got rid of him!

We are meeting  Saturday morning with Steve Sampson who will be in town ministering at Faith Bible this weekend. We love what he says, “We’re seeking revelation, not information. Everywhere you look, information abounds, but we want to hear His voice!” Amen, Lord!

A mom brought her child for prayer. He had been having chest pains periodically; she had mentioned it to her mom who told her there was a genetic tendency to heart problems and she should get him to the doctor right away. That filled the mom with so much fear, she didn’t know what to do but she had faith that God could heal anything that was wrong. As soon as we laid her hands on him, the Lord took Emil to the scripture in Revelations regarding end times, ‘When you see these signs, do not be afraid. It is the beginning of growing pains.” As soon as we finished praying to break the fear and the generational curse, he began running around and playing with no pain and the mom was filled with peace. The Bible says, “Seek first the Kingdom of God,” and that’s exactly what the mom did! God is GOOD and He loves children!

Emil just led a family member to the Lord on the phone! So awesome! God is so GOOD! We just never know when someone is ready but HE does!

Yesterday met with a woman who knew the Bible like the back of her hand and as the Lord revealed truth, she kept saying, “I know that verse! Why, after 30 years, do I finally understand what that means?!” We said, “Sometimes you have to first get rid of the lie before you can see the truth.” The Lord helped her realize she was born into some huge lies and she left free in the Lord, for the first time in her life! You are so good, God!

Emil spoke at our CMA (Christian Motorcyclists Assn) meeting tonight and shared what God’s been showing him is a word for the church for 2014.  Get your validation from God. Delve into the Bible and find out what He says about you and how much He loves you. Start with Romans 8:29-39. (See January 31st post for details!)

We spoke last night (Valentine’s Day) at a dinner and had a wonderful time with the  40 people there. Lots of fun and laughter and great steak and shrimp! Focused on Jesus’ love story and showed to what great lengths He will go to intersect someone’s life with His love. The great life adventure can then begin if we love Him back and go, do and say whatever He tells us in order to keep His love flowing out to others!

Spoke to a lady today that I ministered to three years ago. She was killing herself with a drug addiction. The Lord revealed her root issue and she was able to come out of agreement with the terrible lie she believed and was able to totally  forgive herself and the addiction was defeated! After three years she is doing fantastic! She  is addicted to Jesus more than ever, and totally in love with him! Jesus has restored her marriage and her relationships with her loved ones!!! Thank you Lord for allowing us to cross paths again with those whom we have  crossed paths with in the past!!! Love you Lord!!!!

Our Saturday  began with a meeting with the elders and Pastor Bruce of the Vineyard which ended with them praying for us during which prophetic words of encouragement came forth for us. Our afternoon was filled with individual appointments for prophetic prayer. Emil preached Sunday morning and the Holy Spirit took over the service by giving him prophetic words for many more people including some children. It was a wonderful time with a wonderful group of people!
