So, David I hear gave thanks and praise to God during times of success and times of difficulty. Why? To keep his spirit stable. And here's a list of things I'm so thankful for.

The Call Update

What can I say except Thursday and Friday were some of the most intense intercessory and worshipping hours of my life. If no one's heard of Damon Thompson...check him out. He's kind of old school at times, but look past that and he's definitely one of God's generals. He leads some at the Ramp. So highlights...Mike Bickle and Misty Edwards ministering together. Lou Engle going off about Baal and how it's the main principality over America...so that we can understand his affect in our life and how to battle his tendrils. Lou is so passionate about reversing Roe v. Wade. It's amazing to me that Hollywood is making "Horton Hears a Who" the Seuss book that prophetically speaks against abortion. But I didn't go into this thing for some spiritual high or chance to mingle with other creative and out-there Christians, though those things seemed to occur. I wanted to be a part of the army God is raising up in these times that will influence government and nations. The day began with a court case, us repenting for various transgressions, both to God and to people groups. Then the latter part of the day was a wedding ceremony between us and the Lord. They actually had three couples get married during this time. One of the girls played her violin up on stage in her wedding dress. But the end of the night was my favorite part. Three hundred shofar blowers were ushered in and blew those trumpets. The crowd went nuts. Then Rhamey Hughes played a song about being a weapon in the hands of the Lord. I was raving it out man. A memorable thing which Mike Bickle spoke was "people always want to do things radical for God out there, but in their hearts they don't want to be so radical." I've never been with so many people who had the faith to pray for revival. It was way cool. Anyway, it in a nutshell.

The Call Approaches

Three days and counting till the Call. I can't say how excited I am. I'm taking some girls down early to intercede on friday. I've been praying for you guys in Skopje and my heart is always with you. I believe this Saturday is gonna be a major shift in the spiritual realm and not just for the united states. I was thinking about music today and writing songs and how powerful music is to change the atmosphere. Then I heard a word concerning the summer of love (which the call is primarily focusing on) where a bird of death was released and rebellion and death came through the ministry of music. But this is about to change. New songs, new praise is gonna reclaim what the enemy stole over the past 40 years. And as confirmation to me today, when I looked out my window I saw a yellow warbler, a song bird. Anyway, I'll post more updates about this weekend.
