The Months of January and Februrary have been months of triumph and victory!
In January we started of the year with the different plans for our church here in Madrid and started working on them. This year I working with the Youth and the bookstore again as well as working in the National Office helping Missionary Sones fulfill the many tasks his position entails. It is a blessing to serve in this area. Like Aaron and Hur held up the hands of Moses. I was blessed to be able to attend Because of the Times this year in Alexandria, LA. It was a very eventful seven day trip to the USA. After lost luggage, fighting with the airlines for promised reimbursments which I´m still waiting for, I was thoroughly blessed to attend. Thank you to Bro. Jone´s church in West Palm beach that allowed me to preach Sunday morning and Sunday Night. :-) (I was blessed by you all!) In that church a sister that had been praying for over a year to get the Holy Ghost recieved it. GLORY BE TO GOD!!
In February was a short one but also filled with the blessings, confirmations, direction and the voice of God. I practically started of the month with a trip to the US. This was unexpected as I had to help my father with an emergency situation. The Lord showed himself mightily to my unsaved/backsliden father. GLORY BE TO HIS NAME!!! Back in Spain we celebrated the aniversary of the opening of the bookstore that I am running in our local church and we had an excelent time in our home fellowship group that I am leading. This month 2 recieved the Holy Ghost and God did the miraculous in Manolo´s life. We asked for prayer requests one Saturday during our home service in Manolo´s house and he began to weep and requested that we pray for God to change his life. He said he was tired of the way life was treating him. He felt like God didn´t love him and he expressed the distress that he has been facing on the job. He had a boss that was mean and made his life miserable. He didn´t know the extent of the power of prayer, so I gave him my testimony about how God showed the principal at last years school that HE was the one in charge not her. I encouraged him to pray for God to fight the battle at his work for him as he trusts in God. He was greatly touched in that service and almost received the Holy Ghost. The massage was about the love of God and how if we have it, we can share it with others and how the way to receive it was to receive the Holy Ghost. We taught that the love of God is poured out in our hearts when we receive this promise. He prayed earnestly and as tears ran down his face we saw that God had strengthened his faith in the power of God to answer prayers. This week when we went back he testified how He got down on his knees and asked God to move on his job. on Friday that mean boss anounced that he was moving to a different job sight.. That is exactly what we encouraged manólo to pray. GLORY BE TO GOD FOR ANSWERING PRAYERES!!!! Please continue to pray for manolo to recive a total infilling of the Holy Ghost.
