Spring Cleaning

A few weeks ago, after our friends from France left, we were talking about how to continue the work of deliverance and cleaning house, personally and as a ministry, that the Lord had initiated through them. So last week people fasted during the day and cleaned the physical space of Tierra Nueva's building and broke their fast in the evening together each day. On Friday we spent time worshipping and asking the Lord what sort of spiritual cleansing He'd like to lead us through in the building. It was a significant time of worship, prayer and repentance, forgiveness and blessing, even as we felt the resistance in the air around us. There is still more to be done, and we thank Jesus for His victory and leading.

This week one of the ways we are walking in the new order brought into the building, is to rearrange offices so that Susan and I have a space to work. I guess that means we've arrived when we have a desk - we just don't know which desk, yet.

If you are interested in praying for Tierra Nueva and its ministries, Bob Ekblad and his daughter (13) Anna, are flying to France this Friday for four days, then to South Africa for three days, then to Mozambique for two weeks to teach for Iris Ministries' pastors training school. Please pray for them and for us while they are gone.
