EXTRAVAGANT.BLISS: Cuba.. the rumors are true.

It feels like it has been eons since I have last written publicly.

So much has been going on lately, so much transition.

But I will be writing again, it truely is something I enjoy =)

I went to tell you all about our trip to Cuba, many of my friends and supporters have been asking me about our trip.. so here is a brief highlight of our trip.

The rumors are true.. the deaf.... hear, the lame....walk, the blind.... see......

and God is BETTER and HAPPIER than we EVER imagined possible.

So much to say.. oh man. I want to start of with a HUGE thank you to everyone who has supported me in finances, encouragement, prayers, or just down right interest in my life. You all are bomb.com. With that said.. Cuba was EPIC in many ways it was everything I ever dreamed of.

I loved my team, the people in Cuba, and the experience.

Cuba is a beautiful country with a unique culture. I think everyone should go at least once!

The people are precious and are so hungry to know God. I am so thankful to have went.

I really just love Revival and seeing God's Kingdom come to earth..

That is why I get out of bed every morning.

So we traveled a total of 1700 kilometers in the country and stayed at a different place every night and did a total of 8 church services and in between cities we loved on whoever we ran into. It was a blast. We had the opportunity to pray and prophecy over a Cuban General and his family and a few other people who told us they worked for the gov. There was over a 100 people who gave their heart to the Lord and 100s of miracles, so many it was hard to count! Because most of them happened without our team even praying for them.

Some Highlights:

A woman with a STD for 6 years who had problums walking due to swelling. She said sometimes she couldn't walk at all it hurt to bad. I just released God's fathers love and held her, all swelling left and shes walked around now with out any problums. All the shame left her and she began to laugh. This was fun to see God touch her and do many things in her life all at once. In one healing the whole gospel message is portrayed.
Everywhere we went and talked with people that I can think of we saw people saved and healed
A little girl got out of a wheelchair and took her first steps, IN HER LIFE!! her brother saw this.. and felt the kindness and love of God in a new way.
Blind eyes open after 6 years...
kidney problums healed
a woman who lost her voice for a really long time could sing again
3 men with deafness have never heard anything now hearing sounds and vibrations (at least)
a woman who came to church that day just to know God cared about her she had wondered for years and she came because that night was her last hope. She said she was leaving for the first time knowing God cared about her.
people getting out of wheelchairs
Almost every miracle in the churches happened without anyone in our team praying for them.
And also we got to activate the churches in miracles it was fun to see them realize God wants to use them to do miracles!!

Salvation:

13 people were saved as our team stopped randomly to get water for like 10 minutes. We called out words of knowledge and just asked people if they wanted to feel God's presence they said yes. 13 people gave their heart to the Lord. Seeing people say yes to God on the streets all over Cuba was so fun!!

It is so easy to see people come to the Lord when they saw how happy and great He is.

This Jesus we love is ENTIRELY irresistible.

I believe when we truely believe that. It will change our expectations of what we expect to see God do through our lives and in our lives.

Personal Highlight/Encounter

During one of our evening services before it began I went around the room praying for people who had problums in their bodies, people were being healed of decades of pain, hearing loss, someone who had crutches and crippiling in their body for a few years was able to walk and God was doing MANY many amazing things. A few dozen people were healed as they just checked out their bodies.. They couldn't find their problums. this all was amazing.. but then something happened in worship that forever changed my life.

It all happened as I was dancing around and celebrating God's goodness. I was just acknowledging God and who He is. I was just acknowledging how powerful He was and I realized that it felt like I could touch anyone and I would see them totally restored, healed, or whatever was needed. Then God said to me, "Do you want to see what I can do.'' And of course I said yes, and I became really excited. I began to watch angels walk around the room and as they touched people, the people were falling on the floor, crying, being healed and experiencing God in radical ways. There is some more details to this whole moment, but in this moment I realized, yes God likes to partner with me but He is so incredible at doing what He does. In this moment a deep cry was birthed in my life as I watched the Holy Spirit my favorite man in the world go around and meet these people. I knew I have to know Him, I have to know this Holy Spirit like never before. I must know this man!! I have always realized that it is inevidable that through my life millions will be saved, nations transformed, dead raised ect. But that in the end I just want to know Him like never before. All I want is to know this man, this God, this guy I call my best friend.

And that is what I give my life to this beautiful friendship.

Do you want to feel my friend?

I just love God and revival, in my greatest efforts I couldn't do any of this..

p.e.r.i.o.d.
