Happy Thursday Fam! Hope all is Glorious!
Let me start today with some exciting Florida news- more ground is being taken (literally) for the Kingdom of God across the Sonshine State!
Our Dept of Transportation has made it official that every city in Florida must remove this propaganda by early September or else face steep penalties. This is so encouraging, especially given that we have gone to war against these principalities at the biggest pride parades in the state for the past several years. Glory to Jesus!
And how about this national news- a documentary film depicting the massive move of God that we’ve been seeing for several years in America’s youth, just premiered last night….at the government run national cultural center in DC, known as The Kennedy Center.
If that isn’t a sign of a Third Great Awakening in America, I don’t know what is!
On that note, save the date- Thursday September 25th. The college revival movement that is featured in the film is coming to Tampa for a night of worship at USF. There will be thousands of college students there worshipping Jesus, and it is open to the public. I think it may be one of the coolest things we’ve ever witnessed. More info on this page- UniteUS
As I’ve been saying for several weeks, I believe this year will be a year where we will see things we’ve prayed about for years. Why? Because it is a Jubilee year in America (Leviticus 25). I shared a little bit about that this weekend at Hope International Ministries in Bradenton, which you can listen to here- https://www.facebook.com/share/v/1Aww3sVSL9/
I start around the 42 minute mark and then my bro Josh Eisbrenner gives a powerful word afterwards, which is definitely worth listening to also.
And how’s this for a cute picture from the service?
Praying for Dada!
As for the outreaches, they were great, although heavily hindered by rain on Saturday and Sunday.
On Friday however, it was pretty dry, and we got to sow some good seeds and pray for several people. My favoritie moment was when this boy came up to me asking what we were doing, and I asked him if Jesus ever became real to him. He then told me that God saved him from a life-threatening incident back in 2020 and that he was so thankful to Him. I encouraged him in his faith and then he prayed with me to receive Jesus and the Holy Spirit, which was cool.
On Saturday it rained and rained and rained. So…I just went to Rossi Park by myself, walked around, passed out a handful of tracts and then left. It was one of those nights where God reminds you that if you can just help one person get to know Jesus than it was all worth it. I love nights like that.
Sunday was sort of one of those nights too. It was raining again so there weren’t many people at the beach, but we still set up and sowed seeds. Within the first 20 minutes of being there I even shared the gospel with a young man on vacation from France who had never received the Lord. He was super open though and he even prayed and asked Jesus to reveal Himself to him, which was awesome!
The rest of the night we talked to and prayed with several others, and then our new friend Victoria from the drum circle even joined us for prayer. It was a short but fruitful night, and I was impressed at how many warriors braved the weather to come out.
Let’s be praying for drier weather this weekend though!
Hope to see you on the mission fields!
