RETREAT!

I realize that as you read this title you might be thinking I have hit an obstacle and I am now running full force in the opposite direction. To this thought I say oh ye of little faith. The title is actually in reference to our Revival Group retreat we had this past week. To the left is a picture of said revival group. (I am the one with my eyes closed at the bottom right.) And let me tell you something: IT WAS AWESOME! We went up to this place called Richardson Springs in Chico, CA. It is an old 1920s hotel turned into a YWAM base. There we pray, played, and prophesied. Actually the Bethel staff did most of the prophesying but it was still great.

My favorite memory from this past weekend happened on the second night. We ended the evening in worship and then did a fire tunnel. A fire tunnel is when the staff forms a tunnel in pray over you as you go through. That part was cool the spirit gets so tangible and heavy that I fell down a couple of times. But that’s not even the best part. The bets part was when we finished the tunnel we cleared the room of chairs and danced. People pulled out flags and the room was filled with vibrant twirling colors. It is awesome to see men dance and twirl flags before God with total freedom and no shame. God is good. We danced for maybe half an hour in a room with about 300 people. It was powerful dance with a purpose. Stuff broke off people as we danced that night.

All this to say, if you need freedom dance. Don’t wait for the freedom to dance because as you worship you are in warfare and as you dance you are given your victory. It is like the story of Ester. God told the Israelites to celebrate victory the night before the battle. The next day they of course won the battle. We too should put this method into practice.

Thank you for your continued prayer and support. Drop me a line if you ever want to chat I would love to hear from you. I love you guys.
