Back in the South 2010!
So I haven’t written in a while so this is long overdue and I do not know how I will fit everything that has been going on in one post…so I will try to make a long story short-er. :)
After having the most incredible experience staffing in Kona I came back to South Carolina and hit the ground running! To my delight there were several “Kingdom” ministries I could jump right into!
I got to be a part of the 24 hours straight launch of AHOP (Anderson House of Prayer). My brother in law Jed Aho and his friend Matt Beasley had the vision to start AHOP and the welcomed me in to helping start it. So as the launch date neared we all prayed and had huge expectation for the first weekend of Ahop…and we were not disappointed! God went above and beyond what we could have hoped for! I remember seeing the Spirit tangibly move in waves over that 24 hours (minus some when I slept). There were moves where everyone was laughing…then where lots of people were crying…then where everyone was dancing. People were healed, and set free; lives were changed in that weekend.
The prayer house is still going strong! We have prayer sets Monday and Wednesday, and eventually will have them 5 days a week. A couple others and me lead the prayer set on Wed. nights and we pray for Israel. Hollywood, and South Carolina. It has been a powerful time and the Spirit led us on what to do and what to pray. We also have a Saturday renewal service and it’s pretty hard to explain because every Saturday is powerful but completely different than the last. The best way I can explain Saturdays is we don’t plan it we just say Holy Spirit have your way, and we ask that anyone that feels or hears anything from God to feel free to share. Every week hungry people show up and are filled. God shows off every time. :)
I have also been a part of different homeless ministries in Greenville but feel like I am to be a consistent part of one in particular through my Church. What they do is go to the homeless in Greenville, where they live (under bridges, etc) and bring food to them, pray for them, hang out with them. I went out with this particular homeless ministry once and we brought sleeping bags, jackets, socks etc to them and prayed for them. This night was one of the best nights of my life. We went to the ghetto and met people’s needs physically with things they needed to stay warm, but more importantly Spiritually by showing them Gods love, and representing the Kingdom to them.
One older man walks up to us with a cane and I grabbed Adam Westbury and then a few others joined. Before he even told us why he used a can Adam got a word of knowledge that it was his back and he said yes so I began to command his back to come into alignment and released healing from heaven into his body in Jesus name then others prayed as well and guess what? He was healed right then! We had him test it and do something he could before, and so he did and said he had no pain. He kept saying “I feel the spirit” and as he walked of (not using a cane) we yelled out Jesus, and he in response jumped up and did a heal click! A heal click! Not only did God heal Him but also He restored him to the health of a youth! Come on!
One more story about this glorious night…There was this man that was clearly drunk and acting very crazy and he didn’t make much sense as he staggered around. I asked Peter Perry to come pray with me for him, so him and I asked if we could pray for him and he said yes. I began breaking the spirit of addiction off of him and he immediately began to cry. Peter prayed for him too and this man was so ministered too he kept hugging us and thanking us. I really believe God broke his addictions right then and there as we joined with Heaven interceding for this man.
Ok I have so much more to say about what Jesus is doing in South Carolina and the people here, but I think this is long enough for now!
