The day Manuel pushed Connie for two hours in her wheel chair, they were in need of a miracle. A house, some food, some hope. We provided them with the food and Gods word gives them the hope they need to hang on and wait upon the Lord, we prayed with them and for them. The very next day, a family that used to live in the colonia came to us and asked if we would be interested in buying their house from them and at a reasonable price I might add. Come on, a one day answer to prayer! That's how God wants us to live. Praying with expectation, not just I hope so faith! Faith that trusts God to hear and answer our prayers when it comes to our deepest needs. I never had to pray for a house, for a meal, or money to put in my gas tank. I have never had to pray for a dry bed to sleep on, or even for a blanket to keep warm, but I have had to pray for a healing in my torn knee, and the money to pay for another operation to remove my appendix, and God showed up!!! He provided for both operations and still provides for us every day, week and month. Connie and Manuel will have their new house by Monday, God will also provide a new wheel chair for Connie, and we're also believing for the healing of her Leukemia.
Yesterday we experience Gods Resurrection Power as 6 people gave their lives to Christ when we dedicated Feliciano and Brawlias house. A great celebration of Gods provision for the forgiveness of our sins and the provision of another house for a family in need. The Holy Spirit was moving in the hearts of many people yesterday and the Kingdom of God grew. This house was built by an all Mexican crew. except for me. Several young men helped Carmelo and Eliazar build the house. When I showed up Thursday to help build it, they were almost done.Praise The Lord!!!
We spent the night in Mexico Friday and attended Pastor Victor Church on Good Friday and then took Him, his wife Erika and Carmelos Family out to dinner in Reynosa.
HAPPY RESURRECTION SUNDAY TO ALL, HE LIVES AND SO DO ALL WHO BELIEVE.
WHEN YOU NEED A MIRACLE....DO WHAT HE SAYS !!!!!
W e often cry out for God to do something, when we have a need. We need a breakthrough, a healing, a financial miracle or a touch of Gods favor, but what are we willing to do to get it. Jesus always gives us an instruction to obey to bring forth the miracle we need, we just don't want to do it. When the blind man asked for his sight to be restored, Jesus told him to walk to the pool and wash his eyes. When the Pagan General was afflicted with leprosy, he was instructed to go and dip himself 7 times in the Jordon River. When the Jews desired the city of Jericho they were instructed to march around the city once a day and seven times on Sunday and then the walls fell down. Jesus can do whatever He wants, when ever He wants to. He can change your situation in an instant, but when He sees our faith, things happen. An obeyed instruction is no more than using our faith in God to be the catalyst for our miracle.
Two days ago a couple came to our house in Mx. Connie and her husband Manuel. Connie has leukemia and is in a wheel chair. They desperately need a place to live. They live in a little lean too attached to a friends house over three miles away. Two pallets on the ground, with a mattress on top is where they sleep. A tarp full of holes for a roof and four pallets make up the walls.Manuel pushed Connie for two hours to come and meet us with the hope of getting a house, or a room, or something other than what they have. They need a miracle and they came to us for prayer and some help. We prayed with them, gave them some food and a ride back home. Do you think Jesus saw their faith when they walked and pushed a wheel chair for two hours? I think so! So just as many people in the bible obeyed an instruction and got their miracle, Manuel and Connie will soon see theirs. WHATEVER HE SAYS TO DO, DO IT QUICKLY.
A friend of the ministry obeyed an instruction from God to provide the funds to build a family a home in Mexico and I just heard back from Him that his company set a new record for sales last month. I trust God will continue to bless him as he continues to be a blessing to the poor.

THE FIRST OF FOUR BLOOD MOONS ON JEWISH FEAST DAYS HAPPENS TOMORROW
It is so exciting to be alive in these " last days" and many believe these four blood moons are part of Gods way of speaking to humanity. If you haven't heard about them, you really need to search it out and see for yourself how God promised some signs in the heavens and for these four blood moons to fall on Jewish feast days over the next 18 months is really amazing. Tomorrows blood moon falls on Passover or the 15th day of Nissan, because it officially will be seen after midnight. We have to remember that the Jewish calendar is much different than the " pagan" calendar we use. For example it's not the year 2014, it's actually 5774. So have fun checking it out and searching it out. We also have a total solar eclipse on the 29th of Nissan which God uses solar eclipses to signify judgement of the Nations that mistreat Israel. Lunar eclipses are significant to Israel, Tomorrow is the feast of Unleavened Bread and that is the same day that the Jews left Egypt after the ten plagues and Passover. So you never know, maybe God will free us from this sin sickened world tomorrow?????
It's been a week since we dedicated Cutbertos house, but it seems like yesterday. Everyone has gone back to their lives in Chicago, and Phoenix and we just keep on keepin on. We stopped by Cutbertos yesterday to give him an extra key to his house and I was greeted with a huge hug from him. The joy on his face is infectious. He is so happy to have his children sleeping in a dry, safe home free from the pests and rodents that plagued them. It's always a joy to see them with a renewed zest for the life they have been dealt living in the colonia. If only we could all be so grateful for everything God has provided us, despite the circumstances we find ourselves in.
Carmelo and Eliazar poured Brawlia's foundation while we were up in San Antonio this past weekend and we stopped by her house to check the concrete and remove the forms. She is always smiling and so happy to be getting a new home for her husband and kids. They live on the other side of the canal, straight across from Cutbertos in the colonia Flora De Mayo96/*/ Our cat just fell off the ledge above the computer and broke the moniter screen, so I'll change them out and post later.

IT ONLY TAKES A MOMENT, AND EVERYTHING CHANGES
One touch of Gods favor, goodness and grace, and your whole life can change. That will be the case with Cutberto and his family, as we finish their house today. When we have uncertainty about the future of our life, our circumstance, our health, our direction, one touch from God, and it will all change. This week a small but skilled team came from Illinois and Arizona to be used by God to change a family's life. Two days and the house is done! A few final touches today and we're ready to move the family in. We will put off the dedication until Friday, because Cutberto has the day off, and he has already lost two days pay helping build the house with us.
Yesterday the girls held a hair cutting outreach, and also had many crafts for the kids to do while waiting for their makeover. 25 people got a hair makeover and a good time was had by all. The time with the team sure goes fast.
So I hope today as you go about your life, that God will show up and show off His favor and goodness towards you and your circumstance. If you need something as huge as a house, God will provide! Maybe it's a job, physical healing, emotional healing,or a need unspoken, or maybe just a hug from your heavenly Father. But be sure of this GOD LOVES YOU AND HAS A GREAT PLAN FOR YOU TODAY, JUST WATCH FOR HIM TO SHOW UP AND SHOW OFF.
