Kansas Baptisms
Kansas Meet Me in the Water Event
Ms Kiah started out the trip right, I woke up in the middle of the night to see her hands raised in the air talking in her sleep saying with a smile "it would be so good". 😀
Our friend, Joe H, who came along has already been such a blessing to us and others, quite a few words of knowledge and stretching people's faith.
As people started rolling in, a young man was highlighted and I asked him if he was going to be baptized today. He was unsure, but it was so neat to see throughout the day how he kept getting highlighted to others and people would come to me and say " I don't know who that young man is, but I think he needs baptized 😂. Well, God won the pursuit of this young man. After a few others knocked on the door of his heart, he decided it was time and we got to take him down to the water ❤️
The biggest highlight of the day was a lady who had come after watching the ministry from the beginning, riddled with heart and other health issues, she came believing for her healing, but was not strong enough to wait in the long line. We encouraged her that when she was ready we'd get her right in without waiting.
Well, when her time came, she came and got us and the Lord touched her mightily. After getting out and helping record some other folks' baptisms she was rejoicing that her heart no longer hurt and was amazed how she had been standing on her own for as long as she had. " I have never stood this long without falling"❤️. Her countenance had also completely changed. What a powerful God we serve!
My wonderful partner Elizabeth had some great words and was so amazed at how she could lead other who were struggling with forgiving others. What a gift!
We met an amazing family who flew all the way from Australia who have been believing for big things with the mother being waiting for her healing from Parkinson's disease. God touched her mightily in the water, and did some amazing things, but her symptoms continued as we saw her later. Keep her in your prayers, such a sweet family who have decided to enjoy the journey until they see what they know the Lord Jesus paid for is accomplished.❤️❤️ One day we will rejoice together for this too!
By the time we were done, our dear friend with the healed heart had done evangelized the crowd better than we ever could and she had her whole section coming to get baptized 🤣. Funny how a good testimony overcomes so much doubt and hesitation 💥
Also, something I have never experienced before happened! As I was coming to grab lunch Kayla was leaving the food trailer and spotted some guys in the open field smoking and suggested we may want to go pray for them. So after my meal as I was throwing away my food they were out in the field again. As I approached them I noticed one of them was dressed fully in Jesus clothing, shirts and hat all had crosses and whatnot on it, and the other guy you could tell was struggling with something as he nervously was smoking his cigarette.
I asked if I could pray for them, and the "Jesus guy" suggested I should pray for the other fellow. So I knelt down and started to ask the Lord to minister to him. Jesus guy said "he lost his daughter a few years back" so I started praying for that situation as the man was receiving from the Lord. We finished and all stood up, as we went to leave I was nudges to give the man who lost his daughter a hug. We embraced for a good long time, but when we released each other, to our amazement the Jesus guy had vanished!! We were in an open field and he was nowhere to be seen and never saw him afterward. It was either an angel or somebody got transported there for that moment to help minister to that man! One of the other team members said he saw me over talking in the field, but only saw one man with me.🤯
Another man who we baptized in Georgia came bringing his children to witness what God has been doing. He retold the story of when we baptized him and we had no clue how much God was ministering to him that day. Said his life has been completely changed since and has seen God moving in his family ever since❤️.
A bunch more stories, but time to prepare for tomorrow 🙏🙏🙏. I think there were around 700 or so baptized today ❤️🔥🌊
