There are times we want to rush things and for the later, to be the now. To work or to have others notice us, but I have found what the Bible says to be true, duh, lol. If we humble ourselves he will exalt us as James 4:10. So I have learned to step back many times even though I want to go charging forward. He has taught me to slow down and to wait on Him, which is not my natural character. I am a go-getter, so he has had to teach me to wait, to humble myself, and to let Him open the doors.
Because of His awesome wisdom, knowledge and understanding, along with His love to teach us all things, I have begun to understand. Lord help me to know more!
The last few days have found us walking many miles each day, 10,000 to 16,000 steps as we pray and intercede over this area and the people. We are building relationships and learning culture which is so important when ministering to others in their country. We want to meet their needs so I ask many questions and learn about their culture. We evangelized with a wonderful group of young spirit filled Christians in this park 2 days ago and last night we joined with the church for a prayer and worship night that was very powerful. One man I prayed for was delivered and filled with Holy Spirit, then prophesied over us a dream that has already been given to John before He came. This was to confirm the vision we have for this mission. Great things are coming, and we are using this time to prepare and pour out the Spirit of the Lord with every opportunity.
There are many people praying for us and Ukraine back home, here and world wide. You are probably one of them, and we thank you! The war has been taking a good turn and Ukraine has been winning on many fronts to repel the attack of Russia. Please pray for both Russian and Ukraine along with the hearts that are being hardened by this war. I spoke with one woman who is hardened toward God because many in her village, innocent Ukrainian men, women and children were killed when Russia attacked. There village is gone… It is so sad and my heart goes out to them. God has placed a love for them deep into my heart. and I pray He will do the same for you. God is on the move and your prayers are moving mountains. MOR to come as we go deeper here and then deep into Ukraine over the next 3.5 months.
We give the Lord all the glory for the great things He has done and is about to do. Praise Him!
