fly like an eagle

The most anointed artists I know. So much freedom. So much power.

This is Kenzie, one of my roommates. My favorite surprise so far. She is a brand new believer and has the most amazing story and God is rocking her world. Yesterday she stepped into an even deeper freedom. I can't wait to see where He leads her.

:: I don’t even know how to begin to describe the past 36 hours other than crazy.  incredibly crazy. From the moment we woke up to the moment we all climbed into bed our minds were blown. Many of us left for Nations prayer this morning in bad moods[for various reasons] but it was beautiful. After we all prayed over the country we felt led to we danced across the nations declaring God’s lordshipover His people. It was different than any “prayer for the nations” I’ve evertaken part in and it was awesome. By lunchtime we were crying and at dinner we were bursting at the seams with joy and laughter.

:: This past week we have had the honor of hearing from Donna Jordan who was in close community with the Cunninghams through thebeginnings of YWAM. She is anointed and has spoken truth over our lives. Our focus has been hearing the voice of God. Over the past two days we have all been asking the Lord what hinders us from hearing from The Spirit more clearly. Today we let those things go. We burned them…literally. Many left prejudices, broken relationships and unforgiveness. Others left physical items like clothes, blankets, an iphone and even a head full of dreadlocks.

:: After that we all walked into a new identity…we crossed the river to a new land. A new understanding of who the Lord is and who we areas His children. Earlier in the day Hannah, a Finnish girl in my apartment, had a vision of a group of eagles flying over a beautiful landscape but therewas one eagle who was sitting on a cliff watching the other eagles fly but being too scared to fly itself. Donna laughed and said “Oh, just you wait. You will be flying before we are done.” This is when crowd surfing comes in. After lunch she called us back into the tent where there was a cabinet and a ladder. There were a few speculations as to what we would be doing with these items but they were all wrong. Donna [who is 73 years old] climbed up the ladder, onto the cabinet and fell back into us. It was awesome. We passed her over our heads representing the Jordan and into a new land and a new life. What followed was amazing. Each person in that tent climbed up and fell back proclaiming freedom. The evening ended in a dance party with us singing “fly like an eagle” at the top of our lungs.It may sound cheesy and slightly like the scene from "Mean Girls" but it was incredible.

:: And as I that weren’t enough we have art assignments due tomorrow and had a movie night about the government in East Germany during the time the Berlin Wall was up. It was a heavy day to say the least.

:: We have a mini outreach this weekend in two nearby towns.The musicians will be performing street music while the fine artists and dancers team up to perform beside them and the photographers will be taking portraits on the street for a project we are working on. It is a really sweet project…more on that later :) Pray that there is a good response from those we come in contact with.

:: I am still loving it here and have no doubt that this iswhere I am supposed to be. The Lord is teaching me so much everyday and we still have tons of time ahead of us. That being said I am still in need offinancial support. If you feel lead to give financially it would be a blessing.
