Tuesday morning: a 9-year-old boy was brought who had tried to kill his brother. The Lord asked me to just hug him, and not let him go till the anointing broke the spirit that had held him captive. We could all see that spirit leave him. Oh, how I love you Lord. The light of Jesus started to shine in his eyes for the first time. His sad face radiated with the love of Jesus as He touched him.

15 March 1995
1 Chronicles 16:29 Give unto the LORD the glory [duel unto his name:
bring an offering, and come before him: worship the LORD in the beauty of holiness. 16:30
Fear before him, all the earth: the world also shall be stable, that it be not moved.

Dear Friends

It is with great rejoicing I write this letter. When I wrote to you last we were at Central Park Assembly of God Church in Aberdeen, Washington. The last week there was one I will never forget. Night after night, it was standing room only as we watched people come from all over to touch the Lord. The pastor, Robert Rester, had the youth group, (we called them the Miracle Team) pray for a baby.>

No air for 17 minutes

That child was in critical condition, on life support, and declared 80% brain dead. The baby was born dead at home. He has also gone over 17 minutes with out breathing. They finally got the baby breathing again but almost all hope of a normal life was gone. The Miracle team was ready. They had already seen so much so they anointed a cloth with oil and stormed the gates of heaven for that baby. Well, I want you to know that next morning God moved on that Baby and healed her right there. What a way to start off the week! Oh Praise the Lord, for His mercy endureth forever.

So you can have a feel of what just one week is like I want to share some of the entries in my journal from that last week.

Monday morning: the Lord gave us a vision of His body to the morning prayer group. Everyone was caught away in the Holy Spirit and prayed for almost two hours. All of us cried and sang, and laughed and cried some more. Lord, I know there was a breakthrough. Satan you will not have your way tonight.

Monday evening: Pastor Robert gave the testimony about the baby being healed. Oh, praise the Lord! The whole church was moved by a wave of repentance. There was no message tonight God had already spoken. It was as if a cloud of His presence came into the room. People just started to cry during the offering. The Holy Spirit asked for an altar call after the offertory and 22 people gave their hearts to the Lord. It was as if we felt the nails being driven into His hands that night and felt that any sin would add to them. Oh God, forgive us for our casualness about sin.

Tuesday morning: a 9-year-old boy was brought who had tried to kill his brother. The Lord asked me to just hug him, and not let him go till the anointing broke the spirit that had held him captive. We could all see that spirit leave him. Oh, how I love you Lord. The light of Jesus started to shine in his eyes for the first time. His sad face radiated with the love of Jesus as He touched him.
Tuesday evening: the joy of the Lord broke out. Only the Holy Spirit knows how He wants to work in people's lives. Before the service even started I knew God was going to move. It started with prayer in the Spirit. Then the song leader was caught up with the Lord and just sat down at the altar praising the Lord. She could not continue to stand. The Lord then moved on so many who had been set free. I just love the joy of the Lord. All night the Spirit had me pray for unity.
Wednesday: No sleep last night; the Spirit wants unity. So many were healed last night and set free it is just like the enemy to try and come and stop it. A woman, who had been abused her whole life, felt the love of Jesus for the first time in her life. While she was on the floor, God healed her shoulder and back also. He wants me to pray and preach unity.
Thursday: I have been up for two days now praying in the Spirit. I cried all night last night for souls and an even greater move in the Spirit. Satan you cannot have these sheep. Lord because you gave me breath when I was born, I give it back to You in praise. There has been a holy cloud of God's glory around the church now. Pastor Robert said Thursday night was the best service of them all. There were I people who came forward for salvation, and many for the Holy Spirit. There was just no place for one to find to pray on the floor. Almost every spot was taken.
Friday again I was up all night praying. That's three days now. I know the Holy Spirit is binding the hands of the strong man, so the kids will feel the glory of the Lord tonight. There has been someone at the church all day, around the clock, praying for tonight. There has been standing room only every night. Oh, that the Lord will be glorified. 32 people came forward for salvation that last night. What a way to finish for the Lord! The all night prayer meeting is one I will never forget. To see so many willing to call down the power. Oh, Lord, how I love you.
When we first came to the church there were about 5 to 7 teenagers. By the last week there were over 60 kids from all over wanting to be in the presence of God. They were coming from other churches and towns. I praise Your holy name, Lord. Can you just imagine what will happen when a whole high school gets saved! One of the kids told me that the topic of conversation that last week at the high school was not about partying, but what was going on at that little church. Oh Praise the Lord.
There's gonna be a revival in the Land!!!
Over 250 people came forward for salvation in the 4 weeks we were at Central Park. Well over 100 people found the joy of the full power of the baptism of the Holy Spirit. As you remember from my last letter, a 12-year-old blind girl was healed. Her father came forward for salvation a few nights later. The second week a girl who could not walk was totally healed, and a lady with cancer was healed. There were three people with asthma who were also heated. Almost all of these people have been back to the doctor and some are sending the letters from their doctors showing the difference God can make. One young lady was stopped by the police in her car on the way home from one meeting. The police officer thought she was drinking. In her own words she said, "You should have designated drivers because it's not safe to drive home with so much joy." She did not get a ticket, Praise the Lord. But she did get a chance to witness to the officer.
I spoke at Sequim Assembly last Sunday 12 March. A man who had a shoulder that the doctor was going to replace with an artificial one. I had never met him before, nor did he come forward for healing. The Holy Spirit came upon me, and had me walk into the congregation where he was. I took hold of his right arm and shoulder and said, "The Lord is healing you". He kept holding his arm up saying, " I can't do this". Later, he told me they said the bone was dead. Well, Jesus came to give life and give it more abundantly. God immediately healed him. Nine people gave their hearts to the Lord that morning, and the altar was filled with those seeking the glory of God. Prayer request:

Pray for the kids at Central Park to keep the fire.
