I knew that God was going to move in incredible ways,
so I knew that
God was going to do something supernatural and something bigger than
I could imagine
and the impact on me was incredible.
I didn't was really open to going
but then once I got here I was like: "All right,
let's do this
let's do this let's do something; help people out
It's something we're doing
You know, you see the Bible come to life
you see the miracles you read about, that Jesus did
you begin to see Jesus do them through you
and through a body of people that the world would consider ordinary people
and we just end up in these places where God has destined us to go
and many times we show up there,
because it's not really us that made our plans to go there
but the Lord has determined our steps
and you know there's people all over the world that are desperate, they're crying out
to God; they're hurting...
and God is using people like us; believers, in everyday life
to answer the call of God to go to the people that have been calling out
for a touch from heaven.
We've seen many things happen while we've been on this trips
And it's not just because we're here, it needs to be everywhere
We all need to go to the nations
but we also need to be doing this in our own backyards
to our neighbors, to our families, to our friends
and to show the love of God because ultimately that's what it's all about
we can't take anything with us when we leave this earth
but we can take souls.
We were in the mountaintops
We were climbing all day.
And we actually were gonna turn around and go back,
but then we could see a few workers up at the top, and a little kid
and so prayed for this little boy,
the Holy Spirit just really just touched him and he just started laughing with joy
and just crying and just, it was tears of joy and it was really supernatural
we experienced a wide variety of things;
a lot of miracles, a lot of salvations
a lot of people who are crying out!
actually even voiced us that they were praying to God
about God sending somebody to bring them help
To go out to the villages is my favorite part of the trip
to experience loving on people
and praying with them,
and just talking to them, getting to know them,
rejoicing with them in the homes,
is my my favorite part.
We come to do many things in the ministry,
we come to go out into the villages, to love on the people
to give out humanitarian aid
and to just
pour out into them and preach the gospel and evangelize
We pray for healing,
miracles, we see many of these things.
Obviously, seeing thousands of thousands of people born again,
is remarkable, I mean, it never gets old
And the final night of the crusade was when we saw,
I don't even know how many kids but the...
the glory of God, the love of God swept over their lives
Crusade, last night, to see a little boy walk
when he couldn't before,
and seeing that on stage in front of everybody...
and just looking on the crowd ...
seeing hundreds of people out there,
a pretty cool moment seeing someone who couldn't walk before,
walk now...
He couldn't walk!
And God healed him!
We don't heal anyone,
Jesus is the healer
We don't save anyone, Jesus is the Saviour.
But to be part of that,
and to be able to live in those eternal moments,
Is so cool!
And the Bible says we need to become like those children,
we need to be childlike to come and receive.
So it's just a truly amazing experience,
we've had here;
I would say an extremely successful trip,
and I would highly encourage,
for people to come...
First couple days I think,
not having been on a mission trip I was a little... timid
maybe and sharing
it's been just like stepping out,
and you know, not really knowing exactly what to expect.
Day 2 or 3,
was really kind of
feeling just empowered; I was feeling empowered by God
Empowered by the Holy Spirit,
to go with the team out into the communities,
and really
step out in faith!
Miracles, the harvest of souls,
it was incredible!
I'm forever changed, I'm forever marked,
and I'm ready to carry this home.
You just have to show up.
You have to be there,
You have to speak into people's lives,
and you watch God move.
and it's an amazing experience!
We saw God,
doing things,
that no man could ever take credit for.
If nobody goes,
nothing happens!
It's like, almost like it's a hidden treasure field,
that,
many people don't even know about,
But I'll tell you:
God knows about it
