Everything So Quickly

It amazes me how time keeps moving. No matter how much we love a day, or a night, or a moment, it passes. And then all it is, is a sweet memory. By now my amazing DTS friends from the other house have made it to Poland. They are already on outreach! Just a moment ago I was meeting them on my first night here at their end-of-one-month love feast. They have the great opportunity to do ministry at the 2012 Euros in Warsaw. And already, my team is cutting and sewing costumes for our parades through the city during the Olympics, which are less than 30 days away. I've been living in England for two months now. Two months! It feels like a week. Me and Jordan are working on our pieces for our show that is centered around light and growth and renewal. The music team is putting together a demo so they can get some gigs in the local pubs. Our dancers are putting together routines to perform in the streets. We are all rising up! This is the call, and we are answering it. In our preparations, God is moving. In our prayers and fasting, God is listening. In our worship, God is laughing. It's incredible to be a part of this. The base here is blessed by God's hand so much. The opportunities they get are wild. I've done more things in 2 months than I could have dreamed of doing in 10 years! We are by no means normal. We are influencers. Here to influence the world. We do prayer walks, around Wembley Stadium, in Hyde Park, in Parliament, at the Olympic Stadium in Stratford, anywhere there will be masses of people coming, where we know people are going to gather. We have a giant map spread on our table with circles of all the places we have gone and are to go, arrows directing us everywhere, working out our strategy for performing, planning our attack against the enemy. It's intense. It's heavy. It is WAR.

London

I love this city. Is is so beautiful and teeming with life and with possibility. But then I see all the spiritual bondage, all the places that are held captive, and the people that don't know they are drowning. How do I help them, or this city? How can I show them that which they are missing, that which is so crucial? Through my love, dedication, hard work, time, service, kindness, and humility. Today we walked all around the city. We saw everything there is to see except Buckingham and Westminster. And everywhere we went, we prayed. We reclaimed those places for Jesus. And at the end of the day, we were exhausted, but victorious.
