Falling in Love.

To my beloved family and friends who have supported me throughout this journey.  I’d like to express my utmost gratitude and thanks. I literally couldn’t have done any of this without your prayers and your support. Lately the Lord has really been convicting me with thankfulness towards those who are fighting the good fight back at home. I miss you all, and I can’t wait to see all of you.

The Lord is really been revealing the revelation of His love over me during this season of outreach.  He’s really been impressing upon  my heart that lovers are indeed better at work than workers.  He’s been asking of me to be one that speaks to Him more than speaking about him.  To be a worship leader that sings to him alone in my room, more than singing about him in front of many.  To really fall in love with Him all over again.

With that being said…

The first six weeks of outreach consisted of our team staying in Southern France, in hopes of bringing the Fire and the Fragrance of Jesus Christ.  For the most part, we were under the leadership of Dudley and Janet Weiner, who have devoted their lives to see revival in France.  We came under them and ministered to the homeless, gypsies, and locals in general. But we were also given the freedom to minister the way our team felt lead to, and that usually involved worship and intercession in public.  We were also able to encourage the body of Christ through the prophetic movement of the Holy Spirit, and with a new sound of spontaneous worship.  This was especially an encouragement to the Church in France because they have been gripped with the Spirit of Religion for so long.

But the Lord wasn’t satisfied with just using us, but he was also committed to refining us.  He’s been really teaching us to love one another the way Jesus loves us and showing us what real unity is.  It’s taken a lot of fire to get here, but I believe he is really burning the dross away from my heart, so I could properly emit the fragrance of Christ.

We have about two weeks left in our outreach, and we are in Amsterdam.  Please keep us in prayer so that we’d be faithful till the very end.  I also ask that you would keep me in prayer for full health, as we are doing lots of walking.  And finally, pray that the fear of man would be broken off our team so that we can be fully used by Christ.

Love and miss every one of you.

~Michael.
