Hello friends in Christ, we arrived in Whakatane on 25th June, staying at a motorcamp on powered sites this time, as they offered a 20% off “special” rate. A lovely motorcamp next to the Whakatane river.
Brother Pio has stayed on in Murupara with brother Ian and his wife Marian, to carry out further deliverance work, there and in Ruatoria.
The Lord has put on his heart to drive out demonic strongholds, such as suicide and abortion, prevalent in these area’s, but not for long, thank you Jesus.
So brother Logan and myself have been led to continue on around the coast from Whakatane, then stop over at Hicks bay for one night. Then we wil move on to Gisbourne to catch the Saturday market there, which we are looking forward to. From there we will head back to pick up brother Pio, then travel on to Mihi, for the Taupo outreach.
Today, at Whakatane Pak ‘n Save, we were positionting our set up next to the supermarket entrance door or the public sidewalk. This turned out to be a very good location, as people could see us, as they went in and out the entrance door.
A steady stream of people came over to receive a sausage and prayer. When we were setting up, a young man insisted on buying food for the barbecue, a real blessing from God. We arrived at 12.30pm, and were busy all the way through to 4.30pm – thank you Lord.
We fellowshipped with fellow brothers and sisters in Christ, who were greatly encouraged and thankful to the Lord, for what He is doing there for the community.
A few people received healing and deliverance prayer, while some received a prophetic word from Holy Spirit. Almost all people who came for prayer went through salvation prayer.
101 precious souls declaring Jesus to be their personal Lord and Saviour, glory to Jesus!
We set up next to a man selling balloons and some people who were on a mission with a petition for a new bridge replacement in town.
A man was there with his small speaker playing secular music. Eventually we persuaded him to let us put gospel music on.
This young man shared a great testimony. Not long before he came across our table, he said he was in prayer, asking Jesus for a bible. Moments later his prayer was answered, God is always faithful.
Mathew 7:7 Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and it will be opened to you.
A couple of lovely ladies, blessed forever, in Jesus our Lord and Saviour.
We enjoyed a very blessed time in Whakatane, and the locals appreciated God’s blessings and the all important salvation prayer.
