Luke 4:18 -19 ”The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, because He has anointed me to preach the gospel to the poor; He has sent me to heal the brokenhearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives and recovery of sight to the blind, to set at liberty those who are oppressed; To proclaim the acceptable year of the Lord “
While in prayer the beginning of this year, I asked the Lord to give me a definitive plan regarding this ministry. I had felt recently that I had been going on without a clear direction, and understood that I needed a specific purpose in ministry.
I had felt the prompting of the Holy Spirit to learn more from Him, as I knew that something bigger was in the horizon. I felt in my spirit that I needed to prepare for the future.
The years of mentorship and training did not seem enough for me, it was then, led of the Lord, that I embarked on an online Bible Course.
As I began my studies, I felt that all my years of conferences, seminars, training and mentoring was coming together. It seemed that all of the pieces of the puzzle were finally being put into place. It was then that I realized that I needed something fresh and new from the Lord regarding the ministry, and He did just that.
While in prayer and fasting, I asked the Lord to give me a clear direction for this ministry, a new vision.
The original vision of imparting and teaching the deeper things of God, and bring believers into maturity still stands, but it is now expanded.
Dream
The Lord gave me a dream and the scripture verse quoted above.
In my dream I was boarding a plane, but I was not a passenger, I was in the cockpit. A man in a pilots uniform was piloting the plane.
The passengers boarding the plane had on hospital gowns and IV’s, some were in wheelchairs,others had missing limbs. Some were obese, and others extremely thin. There were no “normal” people on this plane.
We began to taxi on the runway, and it was then that I woke up.
The Lord spoke very clearly to me and wanted me to reach the brokenhearted , the bruised, the afflicted. He wanted Jesus preached to these people.
The obese were those that were filled with the word, and no Spirit. The thin people were those starved and hunger for the word of God. The passengers with broken limbs, inwheelchairs and with IV”s, were those whom are oppressed and brokenhearted.
Sitting in the cockpit indicates a new place of authority, and it is by faith that I step out.
I am excited with what the Lord is doing in these end times.
When we prepare ourselves before the Lord, and with our desire to serve Him, there is nothing that He will withhold from us.
Let us prepare together and go in His authority and power.
I LOVE it when the Lord reveals thing to us in visions! What a awesome thing to see the power of God at work!
God is awesome and good, and thank you!
Jesus is lord and yes he is . I am Jonathan Mora from Trinidad and Tobago. I have 3 gifts, Prophetic, counselling and edification. I would like to know how I go about using these gifts and perfecting them as God wants me too. Its no small talk a reply would be helpful. Thank You!
Hello Jonathan,
It does take time and patience to begin using your gifts, and one suggestion is to start right where you are. You will make mistakes, but don’t let the mistakes distract you from your gifts. Also, if you are in a church where they allow you to minister and grow, and with a pastor that see’s your gifts, that would be ideal.
Another suggestion is to read books on the prophetic and counseling. There are several good authors, and one book that I just finished reading is 4 keys to Hearing God’s Voice by Mark Virkler. This is an excellent book to help you with hearing God’s voice, and guiding you on maturing your gifts. You can see the bookstore tab on this website to give you an idea of books that I recommend and have read.
Hope this helps some, and may the Lord bless you as you use your gifts to help others.
Hello and God Bless you. This is Prophet Mead from El Paso Texas. It was a joy to hear that you are going to Nigaragua (Bluefields). You will truly enjoy it. I have had the honor of visiting and sharing with the people of Bluefields several years. God Blessed me to go and build great fellowship and friends in their country. I worked with Covenant Church out of Dallas Texas, Pastor Mike Hayes. There are some mission workers in the Managua area that shared there friends with me. If I could be of any help or guidance please feel free to contact me. God Bless You and I pray your trip to be a great and powerful time in Nicaragua.

This is the kind of website I have been looking for. Spirit filled, word believing christians who believe in the greater works and what to demonstrate the character of God to a lost a dying world. We need real men and women of God to lead the charge in these last days. God is wanting to do so much through his body that will bring in the harvest. Lets stay faithful to our calling and commission to win souls for kingdom. Once they are in the Kingdom we will feed them the word of God in order that they may grow into the image of Christ. God Bless.
What a blessing to find your website…and to see…to hear what you are doing…loved your “inscribed article.” I wrote a book called Carvings In His Palm…so I really appreciated seeing your heart on the subject…blessings Brenda
I’d love to learn more about your ministry and mission efforts in Costa Rica for our online Daily newspaper-TheCypressTimes.

Thank you Dan for letting me know about the photos.
It seems that on different browsers the photos block the words.
I will do some shifting around to see if I can get it to work.
Blessings,
Hi Thanks for all the email with the article updates. I feel very blessed to have found this site with all the encouragement on it. Keep up the good work and thanks for the linkback. It’s all about Jussus and building up the church and furthering the kingdom and you are sure doing your part in that mission.
P.s. were you aware that some of the photos were blocking the words. The I love your blog photo and the one at the top with the daisies. No criticism just trying to be a good neighbor.
P.s.s On the lighter side – Your husband reminds me of Les Stroud ( in this photo ) from the survivorman show. I love that show
You have a beautiful ministry. God bless you and thank you for what you are doing for God’s Kingdom. I also want to thank you for visiting my blog. I have added you to blog and I pray that you will do the same for me!
Greetings of Peace in the Name of Our Lord Jesus Christ,
It is really privileged for me to write to your ministry and I pray may Lord bless you abundantly. I found that you have awesome and precious work of Lord Jesus Christ, May God bless your Church staff and all precious work.
I have studied your web site, and I found it the most wonderful site to get right to the True Word of God. I found that all your material is full of knowledge concerning development of religious faith.
I am Iram, from Multan , Pakistan . Living in Pakistan we Christians have to face many obstacles to get the access to the Word of God. Most of the people in Pakistan are not capable to understand the English language and they are hungry of the God’s words. So I will be very thankful to you if you can to translate your material into my native languages.
For this I am able to translate the good stuff of you into my native language Urdu, Punjabi, and Sariki language. There are two purposes to request you the first one is to know the Word of God more deeply and second one is to be supportive my family. My suggestion for you is to create your material in my language of, Urdu, Sariki and Punjabi also. It will bring lots of blessings of the Word of God for the Pakistani and Indian, Punjabi and Sariki speaking people.
For that purpose I as a translator will bring your material into, Punjabi and Sariki language as well. Although it will take your low expenses, as well as fund for the Word of God, to reach out to the deserving people. As a translator I will take the expenses that will be spending just for the Word.
May God Shower his blessings upon you and your ministry’s work.
Looking forward for your kind response,
Yours Sister in Christ,
Iram
Multan, Pakistan
I can’t seem to find an e-mail for you. I would love to speak with you further about checking out a site that I created. Maybe we could trade links. Please feel free to e-mail me to discuss.

Hello Marc,
The term universal means to minister worldwide, not just your local area or local church.
As ministers, we should see ourselves aiming for higher ground, reaching more people, and if the Lord has placed a desire in us to travel and see the world, so be it!
Be blessed in the Lord.
Yvette
Yvette,
I enjoy your postings and I am praying on signing up with gmr-itc. In order to get more prophetic training. I find it imparative that Prophets allign themselves with sound Apostles. I was wondering if you could tell me what it means when I see Body of Christ “universal.” I have seen this in a few of Apostle Crause’s writings. The term universal is what I am referring to. Thanks…and God Bless!!
Here is the website you asked for:

I was looking for the GMRN website so I could get more information on the Apostolic Course, but every link that I go to tells me that “this page can’t be found.” Can you tell me the website address of the Apostolic Course?
Claude,

Send our love to Daniella and the children,
