Man it's been a while.
I realise that I have not been here for some time but my friend has been told he has terminal cancer. He has been told it's in his bowl; stomach and second degree liver. I have been praying for him nearly every day for the past 40ish days. He was told he had between 1 week and 3mths but now; since his recent visit, he was told that maybe they were a little rash, so now he has between 6 and 12 mths, amazing don't you think??
Anyway things have been going pretty well in spite of my mate; I have prayed for some of the kids at school and they have been instantly healed, I have prayed for a teacher who has liver tumas and she immediately broke out into a ball of sweat, and (jokingly) said that it must be my healing hands. I'm yet to hear back from the doctors. I have many opportunities at school but I still need to be careful. Maybe it's has to do with me; if I really believe that my kids would be healed (and they were) it wouldn't matter what there parents thought or said, because they couldn't refute what actually happened.
Pray for me, a sinner.

God's Dream
I have been on a roller coaster for some time as I said last blog, with the departure of our most wonderful son, beautiful daughter in-law and our two georgous grandsons to Jakarta to follow the leading of the Lord; then the news that our daughter in NZ is going to give birth in late August; not to mention the constant attack from the enemy, things have gone a little pear shaped for me BUT as I said, I am back, I've been going back over my prayer journals and read and re-read what Dad has been saying to me and that has got me going again. God, our heavenly Father, our Dad wants so much for our world. He wants an inclusive community of people who love Him and are prepared to surrender all in order to see this come to pass; this is the Kingdom.
He wants none to perish and has demonstrated this in the sending of His Son, our Lord Jesus.
He wants you and me to be part of His creating; by that I mean, it is only the past that has been concreted into place, the future is ours, with Him to create.
Do you realise what that means??? When Jesus teaches His disciples to pray and says, "Your Kingdom come, Your will be done on earth as it is in heaven," He wants you and me to be part of that; part of the creating.
He askes you and me to pray and make our desires (which are His desires) known to Him so that He can then make it happen.
Do you know what that means?? I ask and believe that my future son in-law be saved and he will be. I say this with force because Jesus taught His disciples in Mark 11:24 "Whatever you ask for in prayer, believe that you have recieved it, and it will be yours." This is not name and claim rubbish, but knowing the will of Father and standing in faith believeing that it will be. This is a knowing deep in our being that Jesus wants this and so, the Father does too; and with that the answer will come; BUT don't give up believing, don't give up knowing that Dad wants it, don't, don't, don't doubt and never stop believing. The answer WILL come. I promise, I say this because if Jesus said it, He means it, and if He means it then that's it, as good as done.

I'm Back
Well it's been a while and I feel like I've been through the wringer somewhat: the enemy has told me that I am a dirty rotten sinner, and yes I am (in the natural) and I'm not worthy to be used by God.
But because of what Jesus has done I am holy and blameless in Fathers sight: not only that but Jesus gave me a wonderful experience of GRACE a while ago (late 2009) which showed me beyond a shadow of doubt that Father holds NOTHING against me, Grace is enough, Jesus has finished Fathers work and now I am free from ALL condemnation and guilt.
Unfortunately it took some time for me to really grasp this beautiful truth and claim it for myself.
But: Devil look out: because I'm back and this time I'm going to fight tooth and nail and I'm going to make inroads into your territory for the Kingdom of God.
I say this now and I want any who stumble across this blog to visit from time to time and keep me to my vocation.
I want to see the love and power of Jesus manifest, so that people come to faith in our beautiful Saviour Jesus.
