God’s Work in the Next Generation



“Therefore we do not lose heart. Though outwardly we are wasting away, yet inwardly we are being renewed day by day. For our light and momentary troubles are achieving for us an eternal glory that far outweighs them all. So we fix our eyes not on what is seen, but on what is unseen. For what is seen is temporary, but what is unseen is eternal.”
(2 Corinthians 4:16-18)

In the days ahead, God is going to move in a mighty way. He has an incredible plan, and is going to work powerfully in the lives of those He allows us to touch in Haiti and India.  I am amazed at the work He has been doing in these places, and am preparing myself to be absolutely awed by the power of His name in the future.  He has placed mighty men and women of faith there to whom He has revealed what He is doing, and what He is about to do in those countries.  They are praying and acting out of obedience and belief.

Jesus is being made known among the nations!

We have been blessed to have the opportunity to pray over the next generation of followers of Jesus Christ, to lay our hands on them, and be used to pour His love and power upon them.  When we pray, God hears us!  My prayer is that God would perform the miracle of rescuing sinners and redeeming them… I have seen Him do this.  

When we praise, God hears us!  To truly worship Him in spirit and in truth alongside believers from all over has been a wonderful experience. (See John 4:24)

When we seek, God hears us!  God has caused me through the Holy Spirit to seek Him and His wisdom.  And He has heard me.  He has revealed Himself, His purposes, and His ways.  I have heard His voice and have come to know Him even more.  God has shown me what He can do with faith like a grain of mustard seed – He can move mountains.  The enemy has attacked, and will yet attack in a multitude of ways, but God will have the victory because God always wins.

Please pray with me for victory in the days to come as God moves across India and Haiti. Please pray for Brother Bihit and his family.  They, and we, need His strength!  Please pray for Eben-Ezer Mission as missionaries Tad and Janice Walton work alongside Pastor Michel Morriset to bring the heart-cleaning and life-changing gospel to Haiti.

Apart from God we can do nothing!

We should go out relying completely on our Lord.  One plants, another waters, but it is God who gives the growth.  Please pray for healthy and plentiful seed!  Please pray for pure and clean water! 

Please pray for God to give that growth!  

I would encourage you, don’t just sit back and watch as others plant and water, for God has commanded you to do the same.  Join Him in His work.  Listen to His voice and obey. Think in terms of eternity.  Pour yourselves out and give it all to Him who is worthy! .
