some prayer requests!
this is one of the few songs God gave me before doing this DTS. I first heard it a few weeks before coming to the Abolitionist DTS in Las Vegas-during one of the manty times i had considered not coming. I remember how faithful God is and how much prayer has the impact to change things & situation. We hold spiritual authority because God died for us, and he made us conquerers. I am writing this blog as a sign of mainly prayer support.
I once heard one of my really smart YWAM leaders say to me (while i was venting about finances) "I would rather have 100 people be praying for me, and have no financial supporters at all-than to have ALL financial supporters and no prayer support."
Being part of YWAM means you have to raise your own support-which is never easy.
This is a blog asking for prayer & spiritual supporters, reply in a comment underneath this blog or send me a personal e-mail saying "i read your blog and i want to support you spiritually
through prayer" for those of you who would like to further support me financially, i can e-mail you further on how to do so.
My outreach to Thailand is in 7 weeks. as for finances: our base has legal reasons with their accountant and days that certain amounts of money has to be in. If you would like to know the details of what i have to raise and by which dates, please send me a personal e-mail and i will give you further information about that.. the total amount that i have to raise for my DTS is $3,500.00 USD. I also require to raise my own finances ($650) for the few weeks i will be spending in the states after my DTS to live off of, which includes my flight back to Canada.
I know that my God is 'Jehovah Jireh,' he is the same God today as the one who sent manna from the sky (literally) and quail in a desolate desert for the israelites where there was nothing else for miles. I believe that the Lord will be my provider during this season-just like he was the weeks and even days before coming here to Las Vegas.
Please pray that God would start to prepare my heart mentally & emotionally for all of the things i will see in Thailand during my two month Outreach. (From Mid-November until Mid-January 2012.) In Bangkok we will primarily be working with sex-workers (prostitutes) in the Red Light District, as well as ministering to the johns (the people who purchase the sex.) We will also be doing regular types of evangelism in the slums doing various skits & intercession. Many YWAMer's have seen alot of success doing this type of ministry because the people like to stop and watch things like skits/people openly singing and doing worship in the streets.
In Chiang Mai, we will mainly be working in a restoration home (safe house) with rescued trafficking victims. This type of ministry will be focused on building relationships with the women and teaching them about God. We will be in each city for 3-4 weeks each, and we are trying to make this outreach as spirit led/unplanned as possible. We want to go where God wants us to be, and this trip to be about him and his work, not ours.
In a jotnote-here is the things you can pray for:
-Finances
-that the seeds planted during outreaches, would bear their fruit.
-team unity
-against any kind of spiritual warfare
-that God would prepare our hearts for the things we are about to see.
Thank you so much for your support!
God bless you guys!
