Yesterday we had a crazy day. We had two events in one day. One event at 12 - 330 and one 430 - 9. God was moving. It was amazing for our whole team.
Jr. Events are great but my heart is for the Sr. events. The jr ones are meant more as a guiding friendship making but the sr events are meant to encourage and hopefully help them make decisions for Christ.
The jr event was great and God was there for sure. They were so cute and awesome to get to know. The sr however, was incredible. Before the event we all prayed and established separate goals and things we felt God wanted us to achieve at the sr event.
Prayer was pouring out and over. The whole time I was in prayer for the girls and leaders. During the discussion time, I decided to not go and help lead a group because I wasn't feeling called to do it. Instead, I sat back and prayed. I prayed over each individual and the things that I specifically felt they needed prayer for. So one by one I prayed for them. Once I went through, I prayed for the leaders and things I felt they needed. Then finally, I prayed for two specific members of our group that hadn't felt God move and his holy spirit empower them before. I began to pray for them and and specific needs and that the Holy Spirit would just enter in and take over them flooding through. I all the sudden felt that I should take one of them after and pray for them outside of the room. I did. At this point i was shaking a bit and crying and basically was a mess but it was a good mess :) haha After that was the speaking and worship portion of the night. During the worship, I went into this dark hall way and just started praising God praying that the Holy Spirit would enter the room and flood into the lives of each girl there including the leaders.
Finally when it came to prayer time, I went and instead of praying with a girl, I prayed with a team member that I was feeling called to pray for. Again just calling on the holy spirit asking him to fill her. All the sudden I had this surge of power and I could almost feel something happening. I then got the hugest grin on my face and we sat there a moment in silence. When we finished she said she had actually experienced God on a whole new level. Although it wasn't long she felt him. She saw the true beauty. She experienced the real eternal neverending unconditional love. It was beautiful.
God is so good and I am so thankful. I love being able to connect on new levels each day and thats what I am doing. Each day I ask for a new challenge and a new level that I can connect more to him. I love hearing him speak. Its the most incredible amazing part of this journey. I love being totally in love with a God that cares more for us then anything else. It brings tears to my eyes just trying to grasp how big, deep, wide, and strong his love is. Our God is truly an awesome God that cares so much for us. I am so thankful for each moment I get in his presence.
God is good.
