Of Things Supernatural

Well, it´s been a very interesting week. Very intense, but very good. The last few weeks I´ve felt so at home here in Mendoza, and it´s been a while since I´ve felt that, to be honest.

In the last five days, I´ve done worship three times, had a ton of meetings with my worship team, and been able to translate. It´s been really encouraging, and just fun overall to be able to be doing the things that I´m here for! As well, some new exciting challenges have come up, and it´s just been awesome to be able to see God´s faithfulness through them. I have to say, I´m so excited about all the different dreams that He´s been putting in the hearts of the people on the base, and I can´t wait to swee them become reality!

That being said, please pray for the spritual atmosphere around the base right now. There´s been a lot of oppression. It´s definitely a time of struggle with the supernatural. A couple nights ago, I had been having trouble sleeping – something just didn´t feel right to me- which doesn´t happen all that often. (The last time it happened was very much connected to the spiritual.) So, I got dressed and went outside for a bit. Then, I just felt God telling me to go to the football field and pray for the school (we have a soccer DTS going on right now), so I did. I didn´t really know what to pray, but God just kept bringing stuff to my mind, and finally, after a half-hour, I felt peace with going back to bed. The next morning, my roommate told me that in the middle of the night she had heard a voice coming from a part of the room where none of our heads were. It sounded angry, aggressive, ¨like someone was trying to sound evil¨, and she couldn´t tell if it was female or male. It spoke in Spanish, and she said that when it spoke, she was terrified, and thought to wake one of the other girls, but realized it wasn´t any of us speaking. As well, later that morning, I was waiting to lead worship for the DTS, and I arrived early, so I heard them giving their reports of what they had prayed for during their intercession time. They told us how they´d prayed for themselves, against all kinds of things like frustration and anger... and each one of the things were things that God had lead me to pray for them the night before. The worship time that followed was an amazing time. Have you guys ever had times where His presence is just so overwhelming that you can´t help but cry? It was one of those times for me.

One thing I love about Mendoza is when it rains. For me, having rain when you live in a desert symbollizes change, that the presence of God is falling down on His people. That afternoon, it poured. Although, I can´t say I´m surprised! Every time we sing Haz Llover (Let It Rain), it rains. Praise God!

Anyway, please pray for the spiritual atmosphere on the base. We´re going thorugh this massive time of warfare here, and I feel like we´re about to break through, which is why I think we´re getting hit so heavy right now. Pray for my roommates and I. A couple of us have been having horrible nightmares, which I have no doubt that it´s because of what´s going on at the base. Last night, I had a dream so awful that I was crying in my sleep. Pray that God sends us angels at night, and that we´ll able to sleep peacefully.
