good out of bad

Tonight's response to Rick Rife's message about the power of love, was awesome. Many responded to the need for God to give them love so that they could love again. Many more responded to the call to let Jesus take over their lives.

Since Jocelyn's death June 18, we have now baptized 138 new believers in water. Her Father- Rick said tonight: "we ask for 100 salvations and they came more quickly than expected. So we are asking for 1000 now. And when we get that, we will ask for 10,000." I love Ricky's faith and am partnering with the Rife family to allow God to bring good out of bad.

God is bringing good out of bad.

Jocelyn's death was a bad thing to be sure. Satan stole her away from us. But God makes good things out of bad if you trust him and these good things bring some healing to the pain of losing a really awesome young lady.

Tonight, especially, we saw the harvest happen again.

10 were baptized.

I prayed with 1 lady to receive the baptism in the Holy Spirit, and she spoke in tongues. God also allowed me to prophesy over her about her future in leadership.

And to top it off, we had one of the largest Saturday night crowds that we ever had! I feel like I can go home with that satisfied feeling that God has spoken, and I have been obedient.

There are some really powerful things happenings right now in the Saturday night service- God things. I am loving it.
