June 13 Wednesday left USA

Thank you Lord for your protection in all the flights. Arrived in Manila Thursday

June 14 Thursday, Manila, Philippines

Stayed overnight at the house of friends in Manila. The Lord has them in a position where they could be very influential in shaping the future of the Philippines. We prayed with them about their ventures and committed them to the Lord for wisdom and protection.

June 15 Friday

It was off to Kota Kinabalu where Esther and Faith the two daughters of Pastor Edwin and Raquel where looking for me in the line of arriving passengers. Spend the night at their house In KK.

June 16 Saturday, Tawau, Malaysia

Departed for Tawau to meet Pastor Edwin who had driven there. He picked me up at the Tawau airport. Two and a half years ago six of the youth out of Pastor Edwin left for that city to find employment. They had been discipled in the Kota Kinabalu church. They found their partners in that city and were married, now having children they wanted to have a church like they had left in Kota Kinabalu. So they asked Pastor Edwin to start one there. They had begun bible studies from house to house and Edwin had been over a number of times to teach them. He had found a large flat on the third floor in the center of Tawau. They had worked hard to fix it up paint it and make it church. It had a large L shaped room that would easily hold over a hundred people. When Pastor picked me up at the airport he was still shopping for chairs and late afternoon they arrived. Attendance for the first Sunday was 50 with the children; I had the privilege of preaching that service. I was impressed by the unity the sense of ownership and dedication that was exhibited by the original group and their spouses, what a wonderful bond of love and consideration and honesty was flowing in the leadership meeting after the service. Not speaking the bahassa-malaysia language I could only drink in the spirit of what was taking place.

The week following we went to their different homes typically built on stilts to have bible studies. We sat in their 9 by 14 feet rooms against the wall on the floor and ministered Fathers love broke ungodly soul ties and restored Fathers love in those that grew up in abusive relationships and taught on their inheritance in Christ Jesus and about the heavenly place they were seated. What wonderful meetings and always with food after. There are so many things we consider as necessities that they do without. The car Edwin was driving was a 27 year old Toyota corolla and it was downright scary. It would bounce unpredictable to the left and the right when hitting the slightest pothole. This car was to be the transportation for the people to the church and to bible studies. After 4 new tires, a new u-joint and a fixed exhaust leak it acted a lot more predictable. For which I was very grateful for the first bible study night he had 4 adults and 4 children in the back of that car, and I thought; that happened only in Africa.

June 22 Friday, Indonesia.

Flew with Pastor Edwin to Kuala Lumpur and from there to Jakarta to be with Pastor Chandra and his wife Linda and their church. In my heart I knew that we needed to be there for him and his wife. Saturday afternoon I spoke at a youth meeting on Passion, Purpose and Partners. Had a great time and there was great openness and powerful ministry after. We also had a question and answer session that delt with some hidden problems. Pastor Edwin ministered on Sunday morning and I did in the evening, what an awesome Presence of God. The next day we visited church members who had businesses and we prayed over their businesses and the people working with them. The power of God was there to meet them, we even dedicated a baby to the Lord. Later that day Chandra and family moved to a flat in Jakarta, he had appointed a pastor to take his place whom he will oversee. He was planning to sell his businesses and go into full time ministry. He owns several shipping companies. Chandra had completed his first year at Rhema Indonesia and will start his second year this fall. The first night in his new home I shared with the two what the Lord was showing me about their ministry, he is a market place apostle and has godly people working for him. Even though he will probably start churches and appoint pastors, his main ministry was to be market place. When he heard that there was a joy that broke out in their hearts. Years ago he had received two prophecies on two different occasions that had said the same thing, but because of lack of understanding did not know what to do with it. Now he knew and it was confirmation. The sense of liberty and joy was wonderful to behold. On Tuesday evening all the people from the church he left came over to their new house for a farewell service. Again the Lord moved powerfully in their midst touching the people with fresh equipping and anointing.

June 27 Wednesday

Wednesday evening we flew to Kuala Lumpur and the next day to Kota Kinabalu, our plane was delayed and so I missed my connecting flight to Clark in the Philippines. Spend the night at Edwin and Raquel’s house. Last year I had left my laptop for him, but it stopped working shortly after. After checking it over I found out that one of the pins in the rear plug in, of the computer was bend flat, after straightening it his computer works fine. This was a great blessing for Edwin who needed his computer for his monthly visits to the Tawau church and also to the interior where he is involved in another church plant.

June 29 Friday

I flew Air-Asia to Manila where the Raiz’s picked me up for an overnight.

June 30 Saturday, Davao, Mindanao

Flew Cebu-Pacific to Davao where Joy Raiz and pastor Guilliano and his wife picked me up. Sunday morning service was in Guilliano’s church and was a blessed time with anointed ministry where again the Lord delivered the captives and filled them with His love. Monday we had an all day Pastor’s conference in the same location with the Chosen Stones pastors and elders. Ministered on the Kingdom of God. What a wonderful edifying and unifying time it was for everyone.

The next morning before leaving for the villages. Pastor Lito’s widow came by. Her husband past away last fall and her grief is still very real. Lito was a wonderful Pastor we had worked with him in 2005, he had died after a long battle with high blood pressure. Was able to minister to her and help her financially with some of the final expenses.

For the next two days we visited several of the Chosen Stones churches and minister to the pastors and their people, again it was a very anointed time with The Lord powerfully touching His people and healing them. Some of these churches are in hard to reach areas because of the mud, the pastors however wanted me to come by means of caribou and cart, which is about the only way to get there, but we ran out of time. This time we also were not able to minister to the Tribal Movers in the mountains again because of lack of time and very bad muddy roads.
