I'm off to NZ

G'day,
Well tomorrow (well technically today) i am heading off to NZ, where i will be doing an adventure based discipleship program thing called The Journey - PEAK 2. It will be 8 days of hiking, mountian biking, rafting, kayaking and canoeing, along with leadership stuff and God stuff. It is going to be absolutely awesome. I am really looking forward to it. I will let you know how it goes when i get back.
When it finishes i have a couple of days to just enjoy NZ, to see what God is doing over there. I am looking forward to building up a network with people over there and also having some divine appointments. Cause 4 years or so ago, i got told by someone that they felt that God wanted me to go to NZ and if i ever had a chance i was to go. Well this is that chance, so yeah i am excited to see what God does. Also on tuesday night it was confirmed through another person that i was meant to be going, which was really encouraging, cause there was a bit of trouble with organising my flights, however it is all good now PTL. God is good.
On the way back i get to stop for a couple of days in Melbourne, and encourage a couple of my friends. Which will be awesome.

Anyway it is late. I was going to also blog about a book that i am reading, however that will have to wait for another time. Cause i should get some sleep

God Bless you all.

Back from boot camp

G'day,
well it has been a couple of days since i got back from boot camp, where a lot of things happened.
While at boot camp, my house mate moved to melbourne to Training College, and since being back after boot camp, the house seems different, i am missing her here.
Back to boot camp. It was awesome, seeing the youth worship and coming and handing things over to God, which He highlighted during the preach.
There were a few highs for me over that weekend, 1stly would be my mate J came over, it was so great to see her, and hang out with her. Though cause of the camp didn't get to spend heaps of time chatting together, cause God was using both of us to minister to others, throw the gifts He has given us, but the times we did was awesome.
Another Highlight for me was Friday night i had a word from God for me, we were asked to listen to what God wants us to be doing, where He is leading us individually, but were also given a warning from God, that some people think they are doing the right thing (cause it is all noble and such), but God has got something bigger and better in stall for us.
So as i was listening, i heards some words, they were : Nations, and, No Fixed Address. at first i was like thinking Crap, that's bigger then what i ever thought i would do, but since then i am excited about what that would entail, and how it will work out. So i am seeking God for guidance with this.
Also i had the previlege to be involved praying for a fellow soldier, who was struggling with the gift of burden bearing that he had been given, mainly because he didn't know what it was, and it was great to see God using a group of youth to bring revelation to him about this gift. PTL that he is now learning more about this gift.
In the last session we did some listening pray, and i saw a picture of me in God's hand, and then i went flying with Him. then like an eagle diving straight down to capture prey, we were diving straight down, from above the clouds, to Australia, but there it ended, before we landed. So i am not sure of the significance of this besides that i am in Christ hands.
After that i was praying, and had a sense of pins and needles in my arms and then across my chess, some one prayed for me and said that God was doing work in me, to finish the wing (of a building that represented my life, that she saw), which i have been longing for, for a while.
then a little later someone else prayed for me and i had the pins and needles go right up through my face. This was all because the Holy Spirit was working in me, and ministering to me. I was also sort of pinned to the ground, i could only really move my legs, and when i coughed my shoulders came off the floor by only like a centimetre or two.
I was an awesome experience in the Spirit, Christ did work in my life, i am not sure of the details of what, but i know that there was healing to inner hurts that were buried so deep that i know that they are there but didn't know what they were, i am sure other stuff was done, but i don't know what. So I praise the Lord, for how awesome He is, that He heals hurts even when we don't know what they are, and that He allowed me to experience His presence in such an awesome way. Which was in a way that i really didn't have control of my body, it was a way that also pulled down walls of pride, and so that i didn't care what others thought, I basically couldn't get up for ages, i got up once to help do something, and then i couldn't stand. I praise Jesus, for the privelege of having angels minster to me, i didn't see them, i felt them tho, and some one came to minister to me and said an angel is doing the job, so he then walked away. I praise Jesus cause it is through Him that i have Life. I praise the Lord for all the leaders in the youth in Salvation army in south Aus, and their willingness to wait upon God, and be obeident.

That is just some of what happened on camp. In short, we also Praise the Lord for physical healing, emotional healing, for manifestations of God's Glory, and Holy Spirit Laughter.

All up it was an awesome Camp, that we are to praise God for, cause with out Him, it would have been just another camp. Thanks to all who prayed for the camp and prayed for the people who went. Prayers were answered. Hallelujah

your's in Christ

God's lighting show,

On Friday, in adelaide we had a big thunderstorm (not much rain in it tho), however, i drove out to the airport to watch the lightning. I have always loved watching lightning. It always reminds me of how awesome God is, His Majesty, Power, and Creativity. Cause the lightning always looks so spectular, i enjoy watching lightning more then fireworks
As i was leaning against my car, watching the lightning, i just felt like i was so close to God, it was awesome. I love just being outside in God's creation.
As i was out watching the lighning, i looked at all the other cars that were parked in the same car park to watch the lightning, a lot of the people that were there, probably didn't know God, however they were still drawn to come out and watch God's light display, and they were in awe of the power and the beauty of the lightning.

I'll have to see if i can find some pictures of it and then post them.

Anyway God bless
