There is nothing like coming to a town where Gods people have been praying for the meetings in advance. I mean these people had been praying and I could feel it immediately when we arrived here in Rauma late friday night. It is one thing to say a prayer but when you have a passion and a need in your heart for the lost your prayers gets important for God as HE knows that you are serious that there are people taking care of the harvest. Sometimes when I read about these big meetings around the world where thousands of people have made their "decisions" I get sceptical. It is one thing to make the decision and accept Jesus Christ as your Lord and Saviour and another thing meaning it with all your heart and be ready to follow HIM under any circumstances. It makes me sad to see when people do the prayer and it is left there.
Also among us Christians I feel that we need to have more faith than we have. I heard Todd White say something a while ago and I am going to borrow this quotation from him as I think it is a good one;
"Unbelieving believers believes enough to go to heaven but not enough to get the heaven get into them".
When we realize that we can have heaven on our inside and walk in the presense of GOD here on earth we also know that we are on the right way in the right direction with heaven as our final destination. These people here within the organisation Raumagospel know this and thats why it was like coming to a table, ready to eat the steak with all the extras around. It was a priviledge to work with these people this day in Rauma.
The first meeting was good, most of the people that came were not believers andt they came for the free food and the bread that was given away. Some people came up and received prayers and I am sure that GOD did heal some of them. HE definitely touched them and each and every one left the place with something new inside of them. They might not know it yet but there were so many that GOD is calling and some that are chosen. I had a great time in the presense of God.
Later a finish band, Minea had a concert and more people came to listen to them. They were really good and I had never heard them before. Great guitar players and a fantastic singer. They had a great message in their lyrics and they vere nice brothers. You can listen to them by clickin here.
I gave my testimony and closed the meeting with an altar call but as we are in Finland people are like frozen chicken nuggets. Even the Christians are stiff and I have many times wondered where the joy is hidden. Many claims that they are filled with joy but it is so deep inside that you cant see it on the outside. I guess we need more of God here in our country and we need to get loose. People received prayers and salvations took place. Even if there were not a big amount of "decisions" I am happy for each and every soul that received Jesus Christ as their Lord and Saviour this night. GOD was there and it was all because of his Holy Spirit that was upon the people this night that the night ended up being another good night with people getting new hope in their individual situations.
I am looking forward to go even further on the edge on the coming meetings in Kalajoki and in Sweden and I cant wait to get to the USA in two weeks for the Fresh Fire USA healing school. I have decided to leave what GOD wants me to leave behind and let HIM fill me with what HE wants me to have. I also received more of Jesus tonight and I know that my life will never be the same again. I am a blessed and happy man even if less good things are taking place in my life right now. I know that GOD will take care of everything and I trust in HIM. God is good all the time and all the time God is good!
Peace!
