16Jun06 - a significant day

We attended "The House of Prayer Conference" on 15, 16 & 17 June 2006 organised by One Thing Ministries. Gary Wiens from IHOP - Kansas City and his wife Marie shared about God's heart for the House of Prayer and the significance of raising the House of Prayer in such a time as this. We were tremendously blessed by it. Therefore, before being away for the next 4 days for the church camp, I simply must share and give praises and glory to God.

On saturday morning, the last day of the Conference, the Lord gave Marie a burden to pray for a man with cancer whom the Lord wanted to heal. Marie also shared that the Lord had long before her trip to Singapore made known to her that he would do something very significant on 16Jun06 which she wrote on her bible. Last saturday morning in Singapore was 17Jun06 and was 16Jun06 in America. It turned out that David was the one and was requested to step forward to receive healing. While God's people gathered round to pray, worship and intercede, words were released that David is healed and that he will live to see his grandchildren. What a wonderful promise! What a precious promise! I am so overwhelmed by the Lord's love for us...so grateful, so awed, so amazed that He (the King of kings and Lord of lords) knew (took notice of) our hearts' desire and is so gracious to hear and answer our prayers and to fulfill our hope. We who are so unworthy of Him, yet out of His great mercies and lovingkindness, He once again extended amazing grace to us - to David and our family and many others who sought healing that morning.

After the healing ministry, Gary and Marie taught about the importance of Matthew 5 Beatitudes as the journey to Righteousness - a wonderful insight revealed by the Holy Spirit as essential in building a house of prayer. Would like to encourage all beloved children of God to meditate on the Beatitudes and be blessed.

Marie later told David during break time that the assignment satan had to destroy David's life in the prophesy given 2 years ago was cancelled, broken. Priase the Lord!

We can certainly look forward to a life of good health and abundant blessings from Him who loves us so much that He gave His only son so that whoever believes in Him shall not perish but have eternal life.

Bless the name of Jesus forever and ever! Amen!
