Had another one of our prayer meetings last night! We prayed for two hours, praying for people to be filled with the Spirit and praying for the people we were going to come into contact with. We had a good number of people and Im sure next time will be even bigger and better! One highlight, was sarah having a vision of angels speaking to someone, then confirmed when that person told us what they had been saying!!!
We then took it to the streets of Melbourne! Me and Shaw approached a couple of guys and got talking. It turns out they were Hindus from Nepal. We asked them if we could pray for them and ask God to say something to us to say to them. We prayed and I got a vision of a river which resonated but then i asked if they use to swing of a rope from the tree....I bombed out, they said NO!lol anyway, i prayed for Shaw and God gave him a vision of a window in this guys house! It was so cool!
The guy then asked why do you say these things to me, to which i replied with the gospel and my testimony! I spoke to him about having Jesus in your heart and the difference Christ can make. I sensed a stirring in his heart and i told him i knew God was making him feel uneasy in his heart which he agreed with. His tram then came and his friend was urging him to go catch it, so walking to the tram I told him "If you want to know God, say 'God if you are real make yourself real to me and come into my heart" He agreed and caught his tram.
I have never seen someone so close to salvation but not quite there...
I am soo certain that he has found Jesus now though. Everytime he sees that window in his house he will wonder about Christ. And I am certain that God was convicting him all night! God be with these two young men and bring salvation to their house! Pray!
Anyway, we helped a drunk again! Which was great, lots of laughs as this guy had been bashed and his toupe had fallen off in the fight so we had to find him a hat!lol He didnt want us to preach to him but it was a funny time of sharing and he knew exactly what we were on about!
We then were led by the Spirit to all parts of the city and each point God confirmed we were meant to be where we were. Some of the guys even met up with people connected to their church in Werribee!(nowhere near the city!)
Nearly got back to the car when we approached a young couple. simon spoke to the girl while i spoke to matt. They were so open to talking to us about spirituality. Simon got to preach the gospel to the girl while i had a great chat to matt about Jesus being the only way compared to his post modern view that we all have our own 'niche' as he called it... It was great to be able to preach the gospel in a loving and understanding way. Matt is into meditating, emptying himself and focusing on 'weak' spots so we suggested he tried to focus on Jesus instead and see what happend! We prayed and we're sure that when he does this he will find Jesus!
Anyway, Im pumped. Im completely certain that people can be converted and find God in a matter of moments. The gospel is sooo POWERFUL! Cant wait to go out again and spread the good news of Jesus Christ! Next prayr meeting in 2 weeks...
