isaiah35:6-8

found a cool verse in the war room last night and it goes with the picture i got a few weeks ago when i was praying the bible

here is the picture: i just saw plants and flowers just springing up from the ground all over the place on the streets and water was gushing out like wild all over the streets as well through the fire hyranents.

Plants and flowers- salvation/growth

water: cleansing of all the crap on the streets

fire hyranents: tons of them around and fire: spreads rapidly in a open area


verse: The lame will leap like a deer, and those who cannot speak will shout and sing! Springs will gush forth in the wilderness, and streams will water the desert. 7The parched ground will become a pool, and springs of water will satisfy the thirsty land. Marsh grass and reeds and rushes will flourish where desert jackals once lived.
8And a main road will go through that once deserted land. It will be named the Highway of Holiness. Evil-hearted people will never travel on it. It will be only for those who walk in God's ways; fools will never walk there

roman 6

Me and Heather( a very good friend of mine) are going through romans together and roman 6:4 states For we died and were buried with Christ by baptism. And just as Christ was raised from the dead by the glorious power of the Father, now we also may live new lives.

- when we died to our sinful nature either with the baptism of water or through the holy spirit, christ brings us back to life to allow us to live new lives with him , holy and blameless before him.

Hallejuah!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

you are highly favored

we were very blessed having patricia King(sorry i from extreme prophetics on wedensday and thursday's morning. wedensday's morning she talk about the favor of the lord is upon us and she uses this scripture a lot

luke 4:18
The Spirit of the Lord is on me,
because he has anointed me
to preach good news to the poor.
He has sent me to proclaim freedom for the prisoners
and recovery of sight for the blind, to release the oppressed,
19to proclaim the year of the Lord's favor

this was jesus's mission statement and it should be our as well

thursday morning she talk about the holy spirit and i never fully understood how much the holy spirit and what his role was in the trinity until thursday's morning so it was very sweet. people receive the gifts of tongues. it is a lie that tongues is not for today and they are from the devil. read 1cor:14 about the gift of prophety and the gift of tongues

YOU ARE HIGHLY FAVORED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

my plans after the war college

since i been to the war college, god has rebirth the dream of being a missionary nurse and sharing the love of jesus and healing the sick and all the diseases. so yesterday i went to a near college called the vancouver community college on west hasting so i will be able to be involved in the 614 vancouver still. they have a LPN(licensed practical nursing) course and there might be a year waitlist but that is cool too cause i can do phase 2 here in the 614 vancouver and go to the college in the following year. i am quite excited about this. so next year i will doing the LPN course or doing phase 2 and that is up to god which one i do :)

the meaning of my name

as doug suggested when he was here to find out what the background of the meaning of our name and here what my name means which is pretty cool.

Rebekah:
verse:
But I'm in the very presence of God--
oh, how refreshing it is!
I've made Lord GOD my home.
God, I'm telling the world what you do! Psalm 73:28: the message
meaning: Devoted one

what about you? what does your name meaning. if you know tell me or if not search for it.

faith

what is faith? we can find the answer of this question in hebrew 11:1 which saids What is faith? It is the confident assurance that what we hope for is going to happen. It is the evidence of things we cannot yet see. let us focus on the things that we can't see yet. let us walk by faith not by sight. one of my favorite song from hillsong united is one way and the chorus said: One way, Jesus, you're are the only one that i could live for
One way, Jesus, You're the only one that i could live for
Bridge: You are the way, the truth, and the life we live by faith and not by sight, For you We're living all for you. let us live all for jesus and believe by faith in him.

listening prayers

Doug Burr has been here all this week talking about spirtual warfare and it been really good and useful stuff that we can use to kick the enemy in the teeth with. this morning we did some listening prayer where we met jesus somewhere in our imagation and bring someone to him and just listen to what he said and does with that person. it is pretty cool stuff. here what i received: i was in a purpleish colour room with a chair in it and phil said this is my friend rebekah and jesus said of course it is rebekah and told phil to leave. then jesus told me, i am going to show more revealions of his goodness. it was pretty sweet. i been receiving more dreams and visions lately and it is exciting :) i encourage all of you to use your imagination and go to jesus and see what he said or done for you. he wants to bless you. ask what him what do u want to teach or show me today?

unite

the word "unite is coming to my mind a lot lately

defination:
1)To become or seem to become joined, formed, or combined into a unit.
2)To join and act together in a common purpose or endeavor.


tugwar- every person is need on the team to win the tugwar, each person has that little strength to pull the other team to the other side. if one person don't use all their strength the lesser the chances are the team will win- same thing about the body of christ- if people are not using their gifts to strength the church then we miss out on things and lose the focus of winning this world for jesus

That together you may [unanimously] with united hearts and one voice, praise and glorify the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ (the Messiah). amplifed bible roman 15:6

O magnify the Lord with me, and let us exalt His name together. psalm 34:3 ampifed bible

my dreams

we were in squad today and we talk about our dreams that god has put in our hearts. i have two dream and they both go together. the first one is:
To see the sunshine coast be totally on fire for christ and the strongholds of the coast would be torn down. the christians in the school wouldn't just sit around on a bench and do nothing and then complaining that there is no one new coming to FOGO. i praying that the students will rise up and do something. to see the churchs moving into the community and do some sort of minstry that is out of the church.

to see all of the nations of the world be as one spirit and being a part of the healing of all the nation using my nursing to bring healing to the nations and preaching the good news to the poor of the world.

what about your dreams? jesus plants dreams in you for a reason.

delight yourself in the lord and he will give you the desires of your heart. psalm 37:4

blessings and grace to all.

a picture

I was in the war room(24-7 prayer room) last night, god gave me a picture of the empress hotel but it was on fire and the flames jump to the balmoral hotel and the flames just continually spread like a wild fire all along the streets on the right and left. My application of this was god place the 614 presence in the empress hotel to be like a firestarter for the rest of the hotels and the streets in general. hallejauh :D what about yours? what do you think this means?

snow

it was snowing for last 3 days and then on the 4th day it was sunny. i believe in my spirit it was prophetic act from god.
snow is white and white mean purity. we receive purity from jesus when we become chrisians. he makes us a new creation.
"Come now, let us reason together," says the LORD . "Though your sins are like scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; though they are red as crimson, they shall be like wool. Isaiah 1:18
3 days: on the third day the temple will be rebuilted and jesus will rise up from the death.
sunlight: he make things new and he is the light of the world and he is shining his light into the darkness
i believe god is doing something huge in the next week or so. it is exciting to be a part of it :D
all the glory and honour belong to jesus christ

there is so much power in the blood of jesus

we as christians usually forget how much power in the blood of jesus. there is so much power in the cross and what jesus did on the cross for us. He took ALL of our sorrows and pain so we wouldn't have to. hallejauh! let us not forget how powerful the name of jesus and what he did for us. he is can tranformed anyone just like that cause of the cross. Worthy is the Lamb, who was slain, to receive power and wealth and wisdom and strength and honor and glory and praise!” revelation 5:12. we are worthy cause he made us worthy. how awesome is that?

aladdin

i just watch aladdin and there is some bible truth in it. there are three scenes that stood out to me.

How aladdin took the bread and then gave the bread to the two little kids that was looking in the trash can for food. Isaiah 58:7:Is it not to share your food with the hungry and to provide the poor wanderer with shelter- when you see the naked, to clothe him, and not to turn away from your own flesh and blood

Aladdin in general: he is overcomer, he got the girl at the end

When aladdin uses his last wish to set the genie free: Isaiah 42:7:to open eyes that are blind, to free captives from prison and to release from the dungeon those who sit in darkness

online labyrinth

This is an online translation of the Cathedral Labyrinth created by London alternative worship groups Grace, LOPE, and Epicentre. It is currently touring UK Cathedrals during 2001 - 2003. Youth For Christ are running/hosting the tour. The original is described as 'an interactive installation for spiritual journeys'. It consists of a pathway mapped out on the floor for visitors to follow. During this journey participants pause and listen to a piece of music and a meditation. They also undertake some symbolic action or ritual.

my crop officer send this link to me and i did it, it is a pretty cool thing:) check it out

desire to be like jesus

I tried to walk on the water and found myself under the sea So with water up my nose I felt your hand come close to save me I’ve tried to cast out the demons I’ve gone to the darkest of regions When fear has me shaking you suddenly break in to save me I desire To be like you Like any son or daughter I want to be like my Father I desire to be like you You promised to never forsake me So I’ll risk it all if you’ll make me like You You stand beside me just waiting while I try to go it alone Smiling You say son come here won’t you let me just help you But frustrated I try to make it cause I’ve just got something to prove Not knowing it is my weakness that perfects your power
Jason upton- just like you

boxing day

i just put boxing day into goggle and this what i got which i find very intersting:
The day after Christmas, the Feast of St. Stephen, the first Christian martyr, is better known as Boxing Day. The term may come from the opening of church poor boxes that day; maybe from the earthenware boxes with which boy apprentices collected money at the doors of their masters' clients.

none

today, i got to be involved in lunch& friends program in my church, i did it before i went to the war college. it was cool to do it again and to see the people i saw all the time before i leave.

willing and able

Luke 5: 12-13:While Jesus was in one of the towns, a man came along who was covered with leprosy When he saw Jesus, he fell with his face to the ground and begged him, “Lord, if you are willing, you can make me clean.”
Jesus reached out his hand and touched the man. “I am willing,” he said. “Be clean!” And immediately the leprosy left him.

It is sweet how Jesus responded to the leper's request to heal him: Lord, if you are willing.' of course Jesus was willing and able to do a miracle for this man . There is no question that jesus can also meet all our spirtual and physical needs, yet we still worry about what clothes to wear or when we're going to get something to eat. Jesus is willing to help us in everything we do but are we willing to let him to take the pilot seat of our life, completely surrounding to him?

classic christmas story- my sister wrote it a few year ago and it is very funny.

A classic Christmas in the Barnum’s house

I count down to the days until Sam and Dan come home. It seems like only yesterday I was counting down the years until they were out of the house and my torment would end. Maybe it was only yesterday… Time is a curious thing . They arrive and the family leaves to pick out a tree. Sure it’s last minute, it being the eve of Christmas but a little on the late side is just how our family does things. Beside it just wouldn’t feel right if we didn’t all do together. Of course, by this time all the good trees are gone. We bicker about how we should of gone looking earlier but well, the bickering is all part of Christmas too. We argue about which tree of the few left is the least ugly and should have the honor of coming home with us. If mom get her way, and we know mom always get her way, we’ll end up taking home the ugliest tree in the lot. We pay for it, put it on the roof and are on our way. The males lug our little tree up the stairs and we begin to set it up. Well that is what we would do if we could find a tree stand. Where did we put that tree stand? After much rifling about we find it, but of course the bolts that hold the tree in place is missing. You would think after all the years we would get some new ones but we never do seem to learn. Everyone tries to recall how we had overcome this problem last year . Pennies maybe, did pennies work? Or was it bottle caps? I think bottle cap was it. Dan take one for the team and guzzles some beers so we can use the caps. It works. I hold the tree while the try to get it perfectly straight. I hardly see the point. It ‘s not as if the cat isn’t going to knock it over anyways. When impatience and frustration finally take over and the stupid tree is as straight as it’s going to get we start to decorate. First I fill it with water. Nobody else seem to care about the welfare of our poor Christmas tree. Sam, that brave brave boy , is in charge of the lights . It never seems to matter how neatly we put them away the previous year they still seem to find a way to tangle themselves again. He work diligently until they are untangled then begins the daunting task of making them work. He, like Dan, is our hero for making this sacrifice. Although our hero is heard screaming some less than saintly term at the top of his lungs at the lights, who don’t seem to take his treats very seriously because it’s another hour before they decide to light up. He has been to electrocute himself once or twice in his attempts before he manages to get them all working. Although, truth be told, I think he kind of enjoys that. So with the lights finally up we start to throw the ornaments on the tree. Yes, throw not put. Placing them doesn’t seem as much fun. Is it just me or do we seem to have fewer ornaments than last year? We have to actually put some heavy ones on the branches above the gaps to make an attempt at camouflaging them. It doesn’t really work. Its not all disorderly. We have our themes. Last year was gold, the year before that was umm well gold too. I can’t remember what the year before that was but I’m guess it was something truly spectacular and original. Mom has not been in the room all this time. I think the chaos is a little too much for her. She always returns at the end though to tell us what a beautiful job we’ve done (such a convincing liar my mother is). She also has the oh so important job of hanging the angel on top. We all stand around to marvel at the wondrous thing that is our tree, even though the skinny thing looks like it might fall over from the weight of all the heavy ornaments. It’s our tree though so we stand in awe of its beauty for a moment. Not long though. Its only a second before we can’t stand to hear the musical Christmas tree lights play its irritating tunes any longer and we all wander off to do our own thing.
Nothing eventful happens until the next evening when mom and dad take it upon themselves to drag us to church. They use every line in the book to guilt us into submission. Eventually we concede begrudgingly. We arrive and they give us all candles to light later. We’re a step ahead of them though because Dan has a lighter. We, being such rebels, light ours up and agree to blow them out on the count of three. 1... We look around to realize all our candles are already out. We try again. 2...3... They are all out again. We laugh at our inability, give up, and sit down. The time comes to light the candles. Rebekah tips the lighted one getting wax on the floor (shhh). We all stand and sing Christmas carols. Sam shouts out the lyrics to the songs as loudly and inaccurately as possible; noAL noAL. I nearly die of embarrassment. I’ll have to remember next time to make sure I don’t sit by him. After what seems like hours it’s over and we return home. I get home and relax. This doesn’t last long before I hear yelling and rush to the kitchen to find out the cause. I see Rebekah lying on the floor pounding her fists on the ground and hear her screaming “I want a drum! That’s all I wanted and you couldn’t even get it for me!” I see Sam and Dan laughing. I think they are insensitive until I realize that mom did in fact get Rebekah drums and join in the laughter. After a good half hour of Rebekah’s screaming we agree to let her open one present; the drums. She opens them and is ecstatic… until she remembers her screaming and becomes a little on the embarrassed side, silly Rebekah. After these antic the males (and Bek too) turn on yulin with the page. I try to enjoy it but well sports aren’t my cup of tea so I wander off to bed and eagerly await the presents to be unwrapped the next day. As I pass the kitchen I have to avert my eyes. Mother is frantically wrapping the presents. Well the ones that she actually remembered where she had hidden them. The rest will be left until next June when she finds them then puts them back in the cupboard in hopes that she will find them again next Christmas. When will that lady learn?
The next morning we awake to open our presents. Everyone is pleased with what they get. Well ok is less than pleased with the leather jacket but who can blame the guy? Sam and Dan got us silly string. Oh the havoc that ensues. Sam with his cleverness saves the last bit till no one had any left and ambushes us all. He’s a crafty one that Sam. We spend the rest of the day just relaxing and enjoying a Christmas video or special; The grinch that stole Christmas “BUT WHAT WILL I WEAR?!?” or maybe a Christmas story. “Ra ra ra ra ra’ If I have my way we play a game of monopoly but well I never get my way. Its probably best though since we’ve yet to play a game that didn’t end in a screaming match. I can say, without any bias, that its ALWAYS all Sam’s fault because h is a big cheater head! Finally the time comes when mom has completed dinner. Usually about 8 o’clock but hey like I said a little on the late side is just how we do things. Mom’s annual temper tantrum is all part of the holidays too. I would have thought she would calm down eventually, after all things always work out in the end and food is always good. Dad says a prayer and by the time he is finished we are all starving. We all dig into the spread of turkey, mashed potatoes, and stuffing (you can’t have Christmas without a whole lot of stuffing). We all prefer the brown meat (except one outcast who will remain nameless) so you got to be fast if you want some. If your not you can always steal Dan’s. He’s easily duped. Another classical the table is the egg nog. Each member must receive their fair share or a riot WILL break out. There are even disputes even when it is measured to the ml. In the end someone always ends up with more. We all know who that someone is. Don’t we?? Its all worth it though. Eggnog just wouldn’t taste as good if you didn’t have to fight for it.
When everything is over we all go off to bed and are glad that we had this time together. Who knows what our lives hold for us and how many more Christmas’s we will have together. Heck Dan will probably be off on some crazy adventure in who knows where by the next one. But when we are old and gray (in mom and dad’s case older and grayer ahahaha) we can always look back at those classic Barnum Christmas’s and laugh. I hope you guys liked my little story and had yet another very Merry Christmas!!! I love you all!!

old blog

I do not want another ecclesiastical corp cumbering the earth. When The Salvation Army ceases to be a militant body of red hot men and women whose supreme business is the saving of souls, I hope it will vanish utterly." -William Booth"

What is a Salvation Army Corps? - To this I reply it is a band of people united together to attack and Christianise an entire town or neighbourhood. When an officer recieves an appointment from headquarters, it is not contemplated that he shall deal merely with those who are already enrolled in our ranks, or with those who may be induced to come inside them; but it is intended that he shall be an apostle of the gospel to all those who live around. When you reach a station assigned to you, if it has not been done already, you should take your stand in that hall, or theatre, or tent, and draw a line around the breadth of population you can hope to reach, and make that your parish, and aim, with tears and prayers, and the trumpet blast of truth, and the power of the Holy Ghost, to convert and sanctify and enlist and disciple every soul within it." - William Boothwhat are your thoughts about this quote?do you think the founder of the salvation army is happy at where a lot of the salvation army corps are this days, i am guessing probably not, if not then how can we change them for the better?Email me at fuzzypeaches31@hotmail.com for feedback.

hmm i was out with my good friend, Esther and we had two divine appointments to minstries to people. one of the lady that was giving out cards to the resturant Michael and she ask us to pray for her friend Jordan's mother cause she had cancer so we did and on the way back a lady was having problems going up a hill with her wheelchair so we went over and help her up the hill. It was a reminder this is a lifestyle not just when we do street combat/recrea8 or open airs. let us be more like what jesus did in the book of the mark : whereever he went, he did his minstry.

so in the last two days, we are expericing god's presence in a new way. At Knee Drill( our weekly worship and prayer time) We are overcomers, we will overcome the world for Jesus Hallejuah Danielle felt there was a dreams or something that we gave up on so we got into groups and pray that we will be overcomers in this areas of our lifes and walls were broken down. then got into group and pray for our cells that we will not stand anymore seeing people hurting on the streets and that we will rise up to start to bring people to our cells to multiply them. when we were praying, i just started to go into a prayer fireball, it was different expericence for me and it was very sweet! more lord more. Our group joined another group and that group joined another until everyone was in a large group, everyone was laid down close together to show that in our cells, our lives are connected to each other. It was awesome.
this morning, praying the bible, we pray the shouting prayers and it was very fun. In Class, we were talking about prayer and taking every thought captive, on our short break, josh was stating he was having a big headache so a bunch of people start to pray and it wouldn't go away, so some people stay to pray and some people went into the other room to listening to Ian's teaching but we came up with something to do for josh and we went into the other room and we did and josh got healed and it was cool moment :)

hey all,
i just returned from kamloops and i am very happy to be back to the downtown eastside. the bus on thursday night was supposed to be in kamloop at 7:15 but we didn't get in until 9pm because there was no power steering. we got to the hostel and it was a different experience. went shopping and spent too much money which was not good. the wedding was lovely and i am glad i went to it.
