The Lord started to prepare me before the conference, knowing that I would have to serve. He showed me this last year when I was being stretched beyond normal thinking. He took me to scriptures to bring me comfort and confirm His word. And every waking moment stay in His word. This year is no different!

The Lord showed me how to yield to Him and get into his presence by worshipping Him and praising Him. Even though I would come into service all the time after worship. He made me close my eyes and get into His presence. The Lord would reveal things to me while I would meditate on Him and no one else. The presence of God had already been ushered in because of the “Worship Team”, and everyone worshipping. I could “so” feel it. Every message that I received would help me to help Gods people. That is all I think about night and day, is the lost and the nations, “everywhere”. God showed me that I am here to be trained, and then he will decide.

What impacted me the most was when Phil Smithurst talked. I have a heart for the people in the villages that have never herd the Gospel. He revealed this to me. I started to weep. During this conference He made it more real this time. Keep focused on my vision, not anything else. He said to stay humble so I would be teachable. Walk in Love. It like I don’t remember what everyone was talking about. God kept me focused on what he had for me. Keep on track with school.

Then Saturday night my son came to church! He had driven up that morning from Fort Myers. I didn’t ask him to come, he came on his own. I had come back for evening service, when he called and said he was here. I came out of where I was sitting and little to my amazement he was in the building! That was a highlight of my week.  My son gave his heart to the Lord, but does not have a total relationship with him.

Lord always told me just to show him and I will set the example for him. My son has seen what the Lord has done in my Life and finally a light bulb came on. I know it is because I listened to the Lord and he told me to get in His presence at the meetings and he would minister to me, I was obedient. My son saw something different in me. He saw the “peace of God I had, and to be obedient to the Call, and knowing what it meant to be sold out for Jesus. The Lord showed me to let him do the work in me so he could do his work through me! I was totally refreshed and on a new level, because of these meetings. All I can say is I was in a Holy Ghost place where he was doing surgery on me. I was set free with a new boldness. Praying for people to receive. I would pray and they would receive, like being baptized in the Holy Ghost. I wouldn’t go into a long explanation. I would say it simple and boldly and they would receive!!!

I’ve been asking God for a deeper revelation of Him. Everything that was on my heart was talked about in this Minister’s Conference. It was as if the conference was just for me. Apostle Maldonado was speaking about spiritual gifts among many other things, which had just been spoken about with our teachers in class. It was as if it had been all planned out. I’ve never heard him before and greatly enjoyed his teaching style, incorporating music with his preaching.

Then when Phil Smithhurst spoke about the Culture of the Kingdom, you could feel everyone’s faith rise. Hearing him and his wife, Sharon speak about the people that they minister to, you could see the pure love that they had for everyone. Listening to their hearts as to what’s really important is very moving and I‘m sure has opened many people‘s eyes. I’ve already decided to go to Overland Missions when I’ve completed school, so hearing them speak about it again is very exciting.

Then Pastor Andre from East London South Africa spoke about increase, tithing and offerings from a different perspective. Both Pastor Andre and Phil Smithhurst taught about the necessity of people being involved in the ministry as well as the business aspect of things and how the end times there will be a shift that will take place and God’s children will be more involved than ever in business in order to fund the end time harvest. That is my strong desire, to be involved in ministry spreading the Gospel across the world and having businesses for the sole purpose of expanding God’s Kingdom. Afterwards, both Pastor Andre and Phil Smithhurst laid hands on everyone together. It was extremely powerful and life changing for all who came.
