Ministry center for evangelism & missions

[beech112]

We are just completing a ministry center for evangelism and missions work, for reach international students, those who don't know Jesus, for missionary training, for prayer summits, for missionary strategy meetings, etc. Our first group arrives on December 20, and we still have a lot of work to get the center ready! We need to finish the heating system, and install the plumbing fixtures (sinks, toilets), and the hot water heaters. We have a lot to do in only three weeks, so please join us in asking God for grace and favor to finish this task before our first group arrives so they will not be disappointed. God has raised up six carpenters who are helping full time, two painters, and an electrical crew and a plumbing crew. We also are praying for the finances to complete the center. God has provided all along the way, and now we are near the end and are praying that we will not run out of funds until everything God has for us to do is completed, and ready for abundant ministry to many people, and we are praying we will be winning many to Christ here at the center, and also praying for all nations of the world, and also training and sending out missionaries to start new churches all over the world. God has given us this assignment, and we want to be faithful to fulfill all that he has given us to do. Thanks so much for standing with us in prayer, especially over these next three critical weeks as we seek to finish the center.

Dear Lord, I pray that You will enable this ministry to complete the work on time. I ask that You will send them all the right labourers. And I pray that they are given the best ways possible to speed up the process, while at the same time doing all jobs correctly. I pray that You will help them every step of the way, through the entire process. I ask and pray, in Jesus Name, amen.

I think I mentioned that the ministry center is located way up high in the mountains, and we already have had 2 feet of snow in the last few weeks. The last major thing we need before the center opens next week is to finish installing the heating system (fairly important up here). We have been working with a few different heating contractors, and it has been very difficult getting someone to come finish the system. I'm trying to do the best I can to get it completed as best as we know how, and please pray with us that the Lord will provide the person we need to complete this system in the next few days. I'm sure there is someone out there who needs the money who would be happy to do this for us, if we can just have the Lord lead us to that person. Thanks for joining with us in prayer, and also most importantly that God will anoint this place to be a place where many come to know Jesus, many are called to mission and ministry work, filled with the Holy Spirit, healed, forgiven, and where prayer for all nations rises continually before the throne of God.

Christ the Rock,

Thank You for bringing this Ministry so far.

Bless the labour of love they have commenced so as to be able to fulfil Your command to go and spread the Gospel to the four corners of the world.

Please provide the financial support that will help them make a difference in this world.

Move the hearts of donors all over the world to richly bless them for their love offering and to assist them ready-up the centre before the 20th of December when the first group of students are expected to arrive, amen.

[beech112]

I want to praise the Lord for his provision in so many ways to help us get the ministry center ready for the first group arriving on December 20th. The boiler for the heating system arrived today, even though the manufacturer and most dealers all said it would be five or six weeks. Also, there is a local heating contractor named Kevin who has indicated he would come and install the system for us this week, prior to December 20th. I could go on and on describing the many amazing ways God keeps providing. The furniture was due to arrive this week, but due to a broken truck, and then snow on the roads, they have not yet been able to deliver, but hope to do so Saturday or Monday. We've just had enough money to pay the carpenters who've been helping us, and now we are praying for the finances to be able to have the food and food storage space needed to feed everyone who the Lord brings to be with us.

I also thank the Lord for all of you who are standing with us, and asking the Lord to bless many people with a filling with the Holy Spirit at this ministry house, to become disciples of Jesus, to be called into missions and evangelism, and to be healed and pray for all nations. In Jesus name and for His glory alone. Amen!

[beech112]

We are deeply grateful for the way God has provided all the people and funds to be ready to host the first group arriving on Saturday Dec 20th to the ministry center. The inspector comes today for the final inspection, and hopefully will approve the building for occupancy.

We are still praying the Lord will help us to build a large storage area to provide plenty of food for all the guests that we expect to come in the months ahead, along with the funds for the food.

I am also grateful for your prayers in helping us in this ministry center, that many will come to know Christ, be filled with the Holy Spirit, be healed emotionally, physically and spiritually and relationally, and that prayer for all nations will go out from here, and many will be strengthened in their faith and become disciples of Jesus, and be called and sent into misisons around the world.

[beech112]

I am grateful to report that we passed the inspection yesterday, and the first guests arrive at the ministry center today at 4:00 pm GMT-5. God has been so gracious to us, when we were so ignorant of what it took to do all of this. It has cost a lot of time and money, but God has provided the funds and people all along the way. Now we are praying for major ministry for the Kingdom of God.

We are trying to set up the media system today so that we can show encouraging films, movies, etc to help instruct people and turn them to Christ and the building of the Kingdom. We have a large video screen, and hope to get a video projector today that will work with the system. Still a good bit of work to be done, and we look to the Lord for his help.

"Unless the Lord builds a house, they labor in vain that build it."

[beech112]

By God's grace and favor the media system is up and running, and we thank him for the way so many have joined with us to see this place come together. Now we are looking forward to much ministry, and praying God will bring just the right people here who are ready to come to know him, be filled with the Spirit, become true disciples of Jesus, to pray for all nations, and to be sent to the least reached peoples of the world with the life-changing message of the Gospel of God in Christ.

Amen!

[beech112]

We are thanking and praising God for all the help we have received by his gracious hand, and through many people who came and volunteered to help us! The house is up and running, and the heating system seems to be working well, and we already have the first group.
We are now installing a filtered Wi-Fi internet system so that groups can access the Internet for good sites (such as Annointed.net!), and for teaching and training, and other purposes, but with a filter that we are praying will not allow evil content to come through. We are working with the local internet provider right now to try to get the system working. Please pray with us that we can get this working well so that good material can come through, but not the evil material that is so prevalent, and that God will use the excellent and holy resources on the Internet to encourage people and help them be more like Jesus.
Amen!

[beech112]

God has been so awesome in bringing us the resources to pay for this from the very beginning. Never did we imagine how much it would take, or we never would have even tried it. But all along the way God graciously, generously, and from unexpected sources has provided to bring this to completion. Now that we have finished all but the food storage center, we have a number of bills we need to pay for the electricians, plumbers, heating contractor, etc, and we want to be faithful to pay them on time. Please pray with us for the Lord to once again bring in the necessary resources so we can finish paying all those who have helped us. I thank the Lord for those of you who are standing with us in this ministry.

[beech112]

There are so many people that we want to be able to minister to here. Please pray that the Lord will show us the best way to make people aware of what we have here and to bring just the people that he knows are ready to receive the ministry that we have to offer. We don't want this to just be another place, but rather a place where people's lives are changed for eternity, and the kingdom of God is furthered. There are so many people that need healing, that need salvation, that need prayer, that need encouragement, that need training to go into all the world with the Gospel.

[beech112]

You have provided so much for so long to see this house of ministry and prayer come to completion. You are an amazing God. This place has taken so long to build, and cost so much more than we ever even imagined, and you have provided faithfully in so many ways, and in so many unexpected ways. You have brought the people who needed to be here exactly when they needed to be here. You provided the resources, the finances, the suppliers, the contractors, the laborers, the volunteers, the experts, all when they were needed. You are truly an amazing God. Lord, you know that our desire has been and continues to be that this house is a ministry center for your kingdom, to minister to many people around the world, to be a place of refuge for your people. Lord, we look to you as our provider. We have come to see this house built by you, because unless you build a house, they labor in vain that build it. You are the builder and the owner of this house. We do not own or control this house, it is all yours to be used however you see fit. O God, we cry out that you will bring the people here who are desperate for ministry, who need to be healed in body soul and spirit. Bring people who are ready to become disciples of Jesus. Lord, bring in the international students and businesspeople, the refugees who are ready to find new life in Christ. Bring in the laborers, O Lord, those who have a burden and a heart for ministry, those who have great faith to love and to teach truth, and to minister healing into people's lives. Lord, bring great prayer summits, prayer warriors, people who love to pray, who love to wage spiritual warfare to destroy the works of the devil throughout the world. Lord, bring missionaries who take seriously your command to go to all nations of the world to make disciples, to baptize, and to teach people to obey all that you have commanded us. O God, we cry out to you to continue to provide as you have provided up to now. This house, O Lord is set apart for your service. We will not allow this house to be a place where people are destroyed by filth and slime and evil that comes through satellite and cable TV and the Internet. O God, help us in our fight for truth and for God, for the glory of your name, for the sake of the millions who still have no access to the truth of the Gospel. O God, bring Alpha courses for the Holy Spirit week-end, that many people might find Jesus, and be filled with the Spirit, and find eternal life and joy and peace and forgiveness in you. O God, I know that there are churches and prayer groups and fellowship groups, and small groups, and giving groups, all who would enjoy coming to this place set apart for your purposes. O God, show us how to get the information out so that people know of this place for your service. Lord, I thank you for the many many people who are praying with us for you to use this house and ministry center for your great glory, so that all the earth may know and hear of your love and forgiveness, of your power and great works, so that they may become a part of your family. O please, O God, we cry out for your mercy and your ongoing provision and that you yourself will bring in the people, just as you brought the animals, by twos and by sevens into the ark at the proper time. Lord, I pray that we will have the proper facilities to cater to the ministries you have called us to: a prayer room, a library, a food storage shelter and plenty of food for all the people you want to bring. Lord, I pray that we will have all the beds we need for the people you want to bring. Lord, we completely and totally dedicate this house to your service for the Kingdom, and for the least reached peoples of the world. Lord, demonstrate your mighty power to provide, and to move, as you have over these last fifteen and more years. You have been an awesome God, true to your word. You have shown yourself faithful. You have kept your promises, as they are true, and not a word from you will fall to the ground.
Lord, we want to walk with you even through the desert places, even if we have to go three days without water in the desert, even to the point of death we choose to trust you and love you and serve you with all of our heart. We confess our weakness and our sins, the gross sins of our hearts that are a stench and an affront to you. O God, we praise you for your mercy and your forgiveness towards us in the cross of our Lord, our Savior Jesus. We look to you O God, for you are our provider. You are our savior. You are our shield, our Rock, our Refuge in times of trouble. You are our lover, our great romance, our tender and affectionate all wise father. We love you O our God, and whatever you choose to do, only let us walk faithfully in trusting you like little children. We have sought to follow you as best as we know how with as much faith as we have. In Jesus name, Amen.

Father, you know what is the best use of this house we have set apart for your service. There are so many ways that it could be used, and we don't know really what is the best format or way to use it. Please, Lord, lead us in wisdom to know the best way to utilize these amazing facilities you have given. It is all for your service and your glory O God. Please give us the insight, the understanding of your plan, of your best for using this house for your glory. We want to use it for prayer, training, writing, worship, healing, evangelism, missions, helping the poor, mobilizing your people, strengthening the church. O God, we look to you. This has been so many years coming together, and you have marvellously provided. Now, O Lord, show us the best way to use it for your Kingdom, in Jesus name, Amen.

Dear Lord, you have been so faithful for the last five years that this house and ministry center has been designed and built, and it is such a beautiful testimony to your goodness and kindness and grace and wisdom. Your hand has been seen all along with way in amazing ways. Now, Lord, we pray that you will release the funds to pay for the final construction bills. Lord, you know that the funds are in the bank, but the bank is saying we might not be able to get them for two years, due to IRS regulations. Lord, we want to be faithful and to pay everyone who helped us. We want to have a good testimony for you, O Lord, so we pray that somehow you will release the funds, so we can pay these final bills. In Jesus name, Amen.
