So much has been happening and not enough time to give proper updates! I am thankful for this season and we have been running hard since February. This week I'm in the Chicago area to attend the Women Arise Conference and Signs & Wonders Conference. It will be a time of soaking and uninterrupted time in His presence!
On the Horizon:
I am dedicating much of my time to writing and plan to publish in 2023. I am not releasing the title or content at this time but it has been in the works for many years. My desire is to follow the leading of the Holy Spirit and release it's message at the proper time. There are plans for a women's conference in late fall. I continue to pray about invitations to speak, lead in home meetings and will be partnering with some amazing men and women of God this season! By partnering I mean offering my support, encouragement, prayers, hands and feet off the platform. I believe it's important to learn and grow with like-minded and seasoned leaders. The Bible teaches us to build up one another in the faith. My prayer is that Without Walls will unite several apostolic ministers and ministries in their pursuit of building and equipping the global church with the full gospel message. One of the ways to accomplish this is through discipleship. I will be launching a private online zoom class every Thursday evening and weekly live teachings on Fridays.
The collage above represents the ground covered during late spring and summer months. I shared the floor with an amazing woman of God, Donna Grisham, at the Women's Prayer Union Spring Meeting in Brunswick, Georgia. Her testimony is powerful and she is breaking major ground for life with her national outreaches, teaching platform, Journeys of Choice Ministry and The Real Pro Choice broadcast on the ISN network. Following the conference, we spent a day together and discovered we are kindred spirits knitted together for kingdom purposes for such a time as this! I believe you will be blessed to follow and support her ministry! During the worship, Holy Spirit began to move even without any laying on of hands or specific individual prayers. We heard wailing, some dropped to their knees, others laid out on the floor overcome with the glory and presence of the Lord. Leaders began to minister and our altar time came before the message ever started! It will forever be my desire for Holy Spirit to take the microphone and lay hands only if necessary! He does the work and brings the Word to touch each individual. His presence truly changes the atmosphere. We simply trust and obey His leading. We are thankful for every healing and decision made! The message was about letting God write our stories and be willing to let go of the pen! I shared specific details about my personal testimony and journey of saying yes to the lover of my soul. I would sell everything again and move across the country or to another nation if He said to do so. Green Acres (my affectionate name for my apartment in a barn) is my home base and He has surrounded me with an amazing group of Jesus lovers in the cornfields of Illinois whom I am honored to share the trials and joys of life together.
I enjoy bringing the Word of God and loving on people in home meetings. The photo above is at the home of Matthew Garcia. There was a sweet time of group testimony and worship. My desire is to see restoration of the family. God is renewing his order for the family. Community is so important to the health of the local church. I'm not talking about a generic small group, but truly knowing your "neighbors." Jesus walked with His disciples, in their messes, in their sorrows and joy. He taught them and modeled the way for us to be His hands and feet. If our own homes are not in order, it will be difficult to move forward in the plans He has for us. Life is about so much more than "us." We were created by Him and for Him. He loves to see His family thriving in relationship! There are people needing to hear your story and see you champion what God has specifically called you to do. People are hungry for authentic faith and a responsive God! He's been faithful! He is speaking and moving in us, through us, and around us! This is just a snapshot of some of the things discussed that evening.
I attended The Send in Kansas, City and met several of our "Loftees" there. Beautiful and unplanned things happened. I visited International House of Prayer (IHOP) while there and met new friends. Some of us decided to walk and pray through the city. We stopped at one fountain and go figure the only dry one out of 200 in the city! It was quite the teachable moment. Worship broke out and people were drawn into His presence. I believe that video is still up on my personal Facebook page if you have not seen it.
Intercessory prayer is a passion of mine. I partnered with Evangelist Michael Evans to pray for specific regions in southern Illinois and St. Louis. Several of us traveled to different towns to pray and also minister to others as led by the Holy Spirit. I also took part with several churches and ministers in a 24 hour prayer burn at Eagles Nest Watch in Carbondale. The next week I felt a spiritual shift in the atmosphere of the city!
I continue to reach Pakistan through zoom meetings, leadership conferences, gospel and healing crusades. This month I partnered with pastors John AD & Rachel on King Television which reaches thousands. Praise the Lord for the work and ministry they do!
My first priority is always my relationship with God. Everything else is second. He's given me beautiful Green Acres in this season . I love the stories shared around the table, the prayers cried out on the floor, unspeakable joy that breaks out and the atmosphere of peace that offers a place of refuge. Many come to visit the Loft, or stay for several days as they seek God. Some are return guests. In the last year and a half Green Acres hosted multiple prayer meetings, worship nights, Bible studies, community nights and around 20 overnight guests. My home is an extension of revival, hallelujah!!! Your home can be the same!!! My second priority is my home church and then the extended ministry through Without Walls. I'm not interested in building another church or ministry. I desire to see the manifest presence and power of God invade your lives, homes, and churches. Finally, I champion men and women who share this mandate and are positioning themselves for a great move of God. Josh Adkins is one of the few I've chosen to partner with in this season. He is a sold out lover and filled with the Holy Spirit. Josh is senior pastor of Loft Church in Herrin, Illinois. His teaching style is unique and he cultivates an atmosphere that welcomes the presence and power of God. He just published his first book "Heaven Here" and you can learn about his ministry by visiting joshadkins.org. A team of us will be traveling to support him in altar ministry at his Heaven Here events.
Several of you have asked, what exactly are you doing? I hope this update brings clarification. Thank you for your prayers and financial support. The faith walk and trusting God to bring in what is needed every month is an adventure. So when you give, no matter the amount, it is a miracle and encouragement to me! Lives are being touched and souls are being saved! As Reindhard Bonnke said "I want to plunder hell to populate heaven." Your giving and prayers is helping to accomplish this! Many of you having needs of your own have sacrificially given and its testimony of God's faithfulness through you. I pray He blesses you richly and the lives of those around you and fills you with more of His love, compassion, and presence. May He increase you even more! I love and bless each one of you in the mighty name of Jesus!
