Hello lovely loved ones!

I have to admit, this one week at Bethel is giving me growing pains. :) I have been stretched at such a ridiculous rate! God has been so good, and so many people have been healed, but I am going to share a personal breakthrough.

My Revival Group Pastor told us that the thing we fear most is the thing we need to pursue. She said it's the enemy trying to take away the word of the Lord from our hearts. They also prayed and released us from fear. I didn't feel anything, but God did remind me of my harp. I have a fear of playing my harp in front of people. My hands shake, I feel like crying, and usually I am exhausted by the end of the first song.

Last night, for my apartmentmate's birthday, they asked me to play for a soaking session/prophetic word time. I only said yes because God had told me to step out in this area. I couldn't even start, I just didn't have the courage. I had to have help starting from a guitarist. When I finally got over the bump of how to begin my hands were flowing and my face was burning, something that occasionally happens when God's presence is in the room. I played for about an hour, in front of maybe 20ish people, and it was entirely spontaneous music. He backed me up man, He came into that room.

God is breaking my fear of man. Haha I didn't believe He could. God forgive me my fear was bigger in my mind than He was. He still choose to bless me because faith comes from hearing, and hearing from the word of God. After hearing God I stepped out and took action and God did the miraculous. Amen. If God did this, then God can do anything! ;) So good so so good to me.

Love you all!

  2. Hey Sarah!
    He is so so good! I loved hearing about what God is just beginning to do, and its awesome! Back at JFC, we're seeing the beginnings of a new move of God. We're starting to get the intercessors connected so that we can watch where God is moving our hearts in prayer. Quite a job, but exciting, amen? Two weekends in a row we've watched God move in amazing ways during the service with healing, and the pastors are being more bold about speaking out about it. Cool! BTW, the men of JFC are heading up the mountain for their annual weekend retreat, so if you are led to pray, please do, cuz God wants to and is going to do something that rocks everyone! We miss your smiling face and heart for God, but love that Gods purposes are being fulfilled in your life. Keep it up!
    Blessings on you!
