This morning, in light of all that's been happening, we met for worship and prayer inside the student compound, right in the middle of a bunch of the houses.
We had a time of worship and prayer. All of it definitely had a flavor of battle cry and warfare. Multiple times we let out shouts to God and battle cries. A number of people today have spoken about taking up our sword, being tenacious and strong in the spirit. We prayed over different issues going on and claimed the victory. We also had moments of rejoicing and dancing. It's so much fun kicking of my shoes and jumping with joy and abandon in the dirt. I love it. :)
After our corporate time, we split up and went to pray over our houses. We have all felt that ours needs specific protection after all that's gone on this week. We had such an incredible time praying over our house. We did different symbolic things, anointing, marching around 7 times, singing in the spirit, shouting, praying, dancing. It was so much fun and I think we all felt God's presence. A number of people have had visions or seen angels in or on our house. One guy who had no idea the situation we were dealing with told a girl in our house that he doesn't normally see in the spirit but he's seen lots of angels on our house. We were definitely blessed and excited to hear that!
I'm truly grateful to be in a community of so many amazing men and women of God. They are true warriors.
I'll end with lyrics from one of the songs we sang this morning:
The enemy has been defeated
Death couldn't hold You down
Gonna lift our voice in victory
Gonna make Your praises loud
Shout unto God with a voice of triumph
Shout unto God with a voice of praise
Shout unto God with a voice of triumph
We lift Your name up, we lift Your name up!
Death couldn't hold You down
Gonna lift our voice in victory
Gonna make Your praises loud
Shout unto God with a voice of triumph
Shout unto God with a voice of praise
Shout unto God with a voice of triumph
We lift Your name up, we lift Your name up!
I finally caught up on your blogs, I had missed a couple. It sounds like God is doing amazing things there. We have been and will keep praying for you, Victor's been good about remembering to at night when we pray with the girls. It's really cool that you've spoken in tongues/a prayer language now, even though Jesus really is all we need.
