First Prayer and Worship Meeting at our Apartment
So we’ve moved back to Pohnpei with an agenda: To take the
hand of Daddy and to take the hand of His Micronesian bride and join the two
together. Of course, the vision that God has given us reaches beyond the
Pacific islands, but we are coming back to Micronesia “low and slow.” As our
family has been praying and dialoguing about how to start out our ministry
here, we felt led to just open up our apartment on Saturday evenings for prayer
and worship. We invited a handful of our Pohnpeian friends and family yesterday
and had an INCREDIBLE first meeting!
.
Our friends Johnny, Joyce, Ingrid, Jarleen, Stephanie and
Helen, along with some of their little ones came out. We led
a time of worship in Pohnpeian and English. The manifest presence of God was so
tangible. Then we invited them to come to the middle for prayer one by one. All
of them wanted prayer. We prayed for them and for their families. We felt to
break off generational curses and magic that had been placed upon them through
their family lines. We ministered SOZO and the Father’s heart to them, helping
them to break off lies that they have believed about themselves and about God. ONE
of them made a first-time decision to receive Christ…we led her
through a simple prayer of salvation. THREE of them received a baptism of the
Holy Spirit and began to speak in tongues for the first time. They all said
that they felt “lighter” after our time of ministry together. We had such a
good time in our little apartment. I can’t wait for next Saturday evening.
These are the days of humble beginnings back in Micronesia and we are ecstatic
to be back “home” in Pohnpei.
