We got back from Florida on Thursday morning. The Florida Outpouring just keeps getting better and better. His presence is even stronger than before. Once again, so many people were healed and gave their testimonies. There isn't one that stands out to me this time. It was just so awesome seeing people being healed by the Lord. Whether they are healed of chronic headaches or cancer, it is all so awesome! He doesn't love one person more than another. What He has done for them, He will do for you. The number one reason He heals people is because of His love for us. His love is amazing.
On Friday night, Todd laid hands on everyone in the building. He anointed everyone with oil. On Saturday, Patricia King laid hands on everyone. Sunday, a former intern with Todd laid hands on everyone. His name is John and he has his own ministry now. Monday, Todd laid hands on everyone again. Tuesday and Wednesday, they had a fire tunnel where full time ministers and Todd's interns laid hands on everyone. They all stand in a line and you walk through. Every single night, God blasted me. I got totally saturated with His presence. When everyone laid hands on me, I felt a fire and electricity go through my whole body. I am so filled with even more of Him. I can't wait to give what I received to even more people. I gave it away to people at the healing rooms on Saturday. I'll be there tonight and Wednesday too.
Friday night, I did cameras at Doug's. It was good to be back there. I missed everyone a lot. Our director said that it isn't the same when Jeremy and I aren't there. He's so sweet.
After the healing rooms on Saturday, the friend who went to Florida with us took me out to eat. We invited another friend too. He took us to an authentic Mexican restaurant in St. Paul. The food was great, but the time spent with them was even better. I love hanging with them. They have the same fire and passion as me. That's JESUS! Out of the treasure of your heart, the mouth speaks. We always speak about things of the Lord. It's always a great time and I always walk away feeling so refreshed and even more on fire for the Lord.
Yesterday, my friend called me at 3PM asking if Jeremy and I could be at the Salvation Army at 6:30. He wanted us to talk to the men about revival and do an impartation service. Jeremy had traded a shift with someone at work so we could go to Doug's, but we changed plans because we felt it was very important to go to the SA. Another friend who went with us to Lakeland met us at the Salvation Army too. There were around 50 men attending the service. Our friend who is a councilor there spoke. Then, our other friend spoke. Then I spoke. It was the first time since over a year ago when I gave a testimony in front of 200 to 300 people. Last night I spoke for around 10 minutes. I had nothing planned for what I was going to say. Before Jeremy picked me up, I was talking to the Lord and telling Him to give me the words to say to reach these men. Let my words be His words. I opened my mouth and words just started flowing out. I wasn't a bit nervous as I was talking either and was making eye contact with all the men. As I was waiting to be the next one to talk, I felt nervousness rising up in me. I heard the Lord say He was with me. I told the nervousness to go and it left. I was fine after that. It's times like that, I can see how much the Lord has changed me. When I was in school and had to give speeches, I'd have all the words written out on paper in front of me and I'd be extremely nervous. I'd be so nervous that my mouth would dry up, I'd be shaking, and even though what I was going to say was written down, the words still wouldn't come out of my mouth right. So that's definitely one of the things the Lord has done in me. After I was done, Jeremy spoke. Then, our friend spoke again for a few minutes. After that, the four of us imparted what we received in Lakeland to each one of the men. It was awesome! Afterwards, we went over the the healing rooms to watch the rest of the revival on GodTV. GodTV gave them an extra 15 minutes so it went off at 10:15. Everyone left, but Jeremy and I stayed and talked to a different friend. We talked until 11:30 and then locked the healing rooms up. He got in his truck, started it, and rolled down the window. We talked even more. After a while, he turned his truck off. We ended up talking until midnight. When you get the 3 of us together, we could talk all night long. He went home and Jeremy and I went to Taco Bell for supper. It was an awesome day.
I met my friend who interns with Todd again. I was able to talk to her just about every night. Two nights, she laid hands on Jeremy and me and imparted what she received from being Todd's intern. She's got the fire. I was burning up! Then we had to make it over to the impartation line. On the last night she said, "Are you leaving me girl?" I told her yes, but we might be back in July. She gave us some more and told us to bring it back to Minnesota. She was happy we might be coming back in July because it will be even better then. I don't know how it could be any better, but it will be. God is just so awesome.
My mom said she saw me on TV every night. On Saturday at the healing rooms, team members and guests I prayed for said they saw me on TV. At church on Sunday, five or six more people said they saw me. They were pretty excited about it because they didn't even know I was down there. There are many cameras around, but I didn't pay attention to them. Every night, I'd get so lost in worship to Him that I didn't pay attention to what was going on around me. His presence is so strong there. I love being in His presence. It is just so awesome. More awesome than anything in this world. Nothing can even begin to compare. I wouldn't have wanted to be anywhere else.
One night, Todd imparted the mantle of what he has, but double. I believe I received it. As I was sitting in my chair, I felt something fall on me. I was shaking. I bent over in the chair and started burning up. Then I felt something like a cool water being poured on me. I started crying and couldn't stop. I didn't know why I was crying, but I just knew that what He was doing was awesome. Earlier in the day, my friend asked me what the service was going to be about. Without hesitation, out of my mouth came, glory. That's exactly what it was about that night...the glory...the manifest presence of the Lord. Even earlier in the day, Jeremy and I were walking around the mall. We dropped our friends off at the Salvation Army in Tampa for lunch and a tour. Jeremy and I found a Mexican restaurant and then went to the mall until our friends called to pick them up. As we were walking around a store in the mall, I could feel the atmosphere change. Then, the weighty presence of God's glory fell on me. I could feel the anointing going down my arms and legs. It was so hard to pick my legs up to walk. I looked around to see if there was anyone He was telling me to pray for, but nobody stood out. It stayed with me all the way to the meeting and after. I was drunk and saturated in His presence before I even got there.
We were able to relax a lot more this time in Florida. Last time we had to wait in line all day, but not this time. We got there by 5 or 6 and always got great seats in the first or second row on the side. It was packed every night though. So, our morning time was spent relaxing at the resort. One morning, Jeremy and I rented a paddleboat and cruised around the lake for a half hour. I saw a HUGE turtle swimming along side the boat. It was so cool! Other days, I'd hang out on the balcony and look down at the lake. The view was awesome. It was relaxing. Jeremy and one of our friends went to the gym at the resort a few times. They'd get back and our friend went to the pool and Jeremy came up to the room and hung out with me. One day, Jeremy and I went off on our own and went to the Florida Mall. At Dillard's, I found a $90 Ralph Lauren shirt for $22. At Aeropostle, I found a $35 sweater for $2.99. Pretty much all the clothes I own have either been a great deal or a gift. After shopping, we found a Mexican restaurant. The food was so good. Just about every afternoon, there was a thunderstorm and after the storm it would be sunny again. I loved it. We rented an SUV that was a step up from the SUV we had last time for only $10 more. We had a Toyota Highlander. It was really nice. We went to Publix so we had food in our room, but we'd also go out for a late lunch and sometimes after the revival. We tried new restaurants and everywhere we went was wonderful. We never got back to the resort before 2:30AM. We were able to sleep in and get up whenever we wanted though...usually between 9 and 10 in the morning for me. Everyone enjoyed being there and had a great time.
The whole week was awesome. God is amazing beyond words. I'm so in love. I'm off to get ready for the healing rooms now. I can't wait to see what God is going to do!
God bless you,
Kristi
