JOEL 2 GENERATION

Last week I had approached a man on crutches offering to help solve his knee problem. Tonight while in another part of the city, I see a guy on crutches and approach him to offer the Kingdom (because God is so outrageously good). It turns out it is the SAME GUY and so we arrange to meet later that night. He told me where the building he lived in was, but there were 4 buildings and I didn't know which one. I knew what company he worked for, and so a man directed me to the building where employees from that particular company were being housed. I then approached a man in the parking structure if he knew this particular guy - he did, because it was his friend. (This was a 12 story apartment building). God was working things out - He always does. Two of us met with this man and some other relatives of his, including his wife. They had lots of questions and we got to explain clearly the Christian concept of healing, and speak about the gifts of the Holy Spirit. While sitting the

My wife and I were on a lovely date and we stopped by Starbucks. While ordering, I struck up a conversation with the cashier and it turns out he was from Nepal. I turned away for a minute while he was preparing the order and two thoughts hit me almost simultaeously: 1) I should ask the Lord for a word for him and on the heels of the first thought, 2) his older brother lives and works in our city. So, I asked him about his brother, "Does your brother work here?" "Yes." Is he your older brother? "Yes, he is my elder brother. How do you know my brother? How did you know?"

A few minutes later, he was cleaning up and came by our table to ask if I was a doctor. I told him no, but my wife and I were able to tell him that God loved him and was watching him and that's why He told me about

A few weeks ago, DJ and I picked up hitchhiker and we were able to minister to him. I only wanted to add that I had received a prophetic word about him being a survivor and it turned out that he was, indeed, a survivor of a poverty that had killed many in his family. It's a great encouragement when someone confirms the word. This past week, my family and I went on vacation to Sri Lanka. The first day there, I was so tired from the flight, I didn't have my Kingdom mind on. The next few days, however, proved otherwise. I started asking the Lord what He wanted to say to the people who were on the beach selling their wares. Now, for most tourists, these people (some beggars) become a real hassle and detraction from their vacations. However, the Lord has been dealing with me in this area of judging others based on appearance, socieconomic level, etc. So, I set my mind to see them as real people for whom Christ died. After doing this and by not judging, I would beat them to
