Praise God for another day dwelling in the house of the Lord. Today we went to Bluff for an outreach.
When we arrived in Bluff central township, we couldn’t see many people around at all, very quiet. We went over to the wharf where a few people were fishing, but was also very quiet.
We then decided to follow the road to the end and found where most of the people were, at the lookout point. Also a lovely track which takes you around the coast.

We met a lovely family at the car park who accepted Jesus into their hearts immediately. They had come to dive for Paua, Kinna and Crayfish. We decided to tag along with them to their diving spot a few kilometres walk around the track. When we arrived at the location, other divers were already there.
Brother Pio decided to witness along the track to the many hikers walking around, while Logen and myself looked for Paua and Kinna.
During our time on the beach I had the opportunity to minister with Taylor, who had many biblical questions. Holy Spirit answered them all and I believe a good understand of God’s word was received by the young man. Thank You Holy Spirit.
Hebrews 1:14 Are they not all ministering spirits sent forth to minister for those who will inherit salvation?
The guys did well bringing in a few paua, Kinna and Crayfish. Myself on the other hand did not do so well, only seeing a few undersized Paua from the rocks.
However they blessed us with a feed of Paua and Kinna,Thank You Lord.
James 1:17. Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and comes down from the Father of lights, with whom there is no variation or shadow of turning.
Psalm 16:2. O my soul, you have said to the Lord,
“You are my Lord,
My goodness is nothing apart from You.”
When we arrived back to the carpark, Brother Pio through the Holy Spirit had done well fishing for souls, drawing in twenty one precious souls to Jesus, hallelujah! So we went back to camp with a great catch, in the physical and in the spiritual. Amen.
Deuteronomy 28:6. Blessed shall you be when you come in, and blessed shall you be when you go out.
We enjoyed our day at Bluff and enjoyed our sea food, whipping up some yummy Paua patties. Logen and Pio enjoyed their Kinna, without me. Apparently they were nice and fat. For me personally, Kinna is not something my stomach could handle.
We thank you Father God for Your provision and for connecting us with many beautiful divine appointments.
3 John 1:2. Beloved, I pray that you may prosper in all things and be in health, just as your soul prospers.
May the Lord bless you with an abundance, as you seek Him continually in all things.
Numbers 6:24-26. The Lord bless you and keep you;
The Lord make His face shine upon you,
And be gracious to you;
The Lord lift up His countenance upon you,
And give you peace.
Thank you for joining us here, you are welcome to leave a comment if you like.
Bless you and your families with love from your brother in Christ,
Paul

About Bluff….
Bluff, previously known as Campbelltown, is a town and seaport in the Southland region, on the southern coast of the South Island of New Zealand serving as the main port of Invercargill. It is the southernmost town in mainland New Zealand and, despite Slope Point and Stewart Island being further south, Bluff is colloquially used to refer to the southern extremity of the country (particularly in the phrase “from Cape Reinga to The Bluff”).[5] According to the 2018 census, the resident population was 1,797, a decrease of 6 since 2013.[6]
The Bluff area was one of the earliest areas of New Zealand where a European presence became established. The first ship’s crew known to have visited the harbour were from Perseverance which had anchored at Stewart Island in 1813. They were in search of flax trading possibilities, with the first European settlers arriving about 1836 when a whaling station was established by William Stirling.
The town was officially called Campbelltown in 1856, became a borough in 1878, and was renamed Bluff in 1917.[7]
Many of the streets in Bluff are named after rivers in Ireland. These include the streets Blackwater, Shannon, Boyne, Liffey, Barrow, Foyle, Slaney, Bann, Suir, Lee, Bandon and Lagan.
