I suppose the best way to start this is by giving a little bit of background about me. I've been a Christian for 16 years. I had an abusive father whom was killed when I was 12. I also went through a horrible divorce last year. Needless to say the enemy has tried hard to break me. The day before we left for the trip I remember saying to a friend that there was no way God could use me because I was hanging on by a string. She prayed with me and I decided to go on the trip as a spectator not a participant because I was not at all worthy to be used or touched by God in any way. Man...Satan was wrong!!

The first moment I set foot in Revolution Church I was floored by the church body and their excitement. The first time we entered into praise and worship God
began to break me...and I mean break me! I quickly
realized I needed deliverance, I wasn't sure of what exactly but I knew it had to be done. Then John put it out there for us to recieve deliverance. I couldn't run to the front any quicker...I was ready but still very skeptical. Then Juanita began to pray over me and delivered me from a whole lotta things, but mainly of fear! I was one of those people who lived in fear constantly (fearful of pretty much everything you can imagine!). She then asked me why I didn't think God was my friend - I answered very honestly. She then delivered a word I needed to hear.
She said that Satan had tried to claim my life through disease but that God saved me - physically saved me! That prepared my heart for the rest of the weekend. I wouldn't have been willling to listen if I hadn't recieved that word that answered so many of my questions or been delivered from those things. The second time we entered praise and worship I was willing to listen to God. John then looked right at me and asked if I had a dream. I didn't...not even close. After my divorce I felt like I had made such a mess of myself that I didn't deserve a future, I was just alive for the ride but I could never amount to anything. Once John and his team began to pray over me I began to see more clearly than ever before. At that moment my life's path was mapped out for me. I was so thankful that God still wanted to use me!! The rest of the week was wonderful as well. Each time I spent time with Him I know He was there with me. He began to strenghten spiritual gifts I haven't used in ages. The third most powerful word I recieved was during the cave prayer. Rhoni spoke to me about expanding my dream and that my heart was like Jeremiah's and I needed to just let God lead me. Now, I can't stop dreaming!! More amazing to me is that certain things have fallen into place which will make it possible for me to follow those dreams.
