Giving all to Jesus in Holland


We got back last week from an amazing trip to Holland. Always a favorite place , as we really felt God has called a part of our ministry there. We are going back to do a Missions trip there in July.
The people in Holland are amazing we have awesome relationships God has built for us there.
We went for 3 nights to the north of Holland. ( loopersum)
And there were lots of testimonies on this trip, God healed bodies, many were spoken over, saved, delivered,,
Honestly there was 1 testimony that stood out the most in my mind , when I think of this last trip.
I spoke the first night on the cost of Revival. Which if you don't know by now the answer is everything.
I saw this young girl maybe 21 years old. I called her out and began to release a very specific word over her, She fell to the floor and started crying and screaming. I knew that Jesus was doing a great work in her heart, I was unaware in the natural of what she had been through in her life, I knew the Spirit had pin pointed it though.
After the meeting i went back to the book table where my staff was. And this young girl came up to me to talk. Understand that not everyone in Holland speaks English and few speak it well. She came up and started to tell me how powerful the word was over her life. Then she started crying, threw her hands up in the air and said " After hearing you, I give my all to JESUS!"
It was almost too much to take. I held it in and then ran to the bathroom, closed the stall door and started to weep.I began to hear the Hunger which I have longed to hear out of a generation.
It seems so many people are trying to push the line of compromise so much that we continually live underneath where God has called us to live. We have accepted a weak water down will of man, Over a victorious, Fruit filled will of God. We cannot continue to be a generation that seeks pleasure over presence. God is not pleased with this. He is so desperate for you to know HIM fully.
I travel all over the world, ( I am in San Diego now) and I am blessed to see various expressions of Christianity. However we cannot continue to sing, " All I want is you Jesus". and then turn around and contradict that cry? Just as much as we are saying we want more if Him, He is sating back He wants more of you!!!!
I feel that there is a Hunger that must come out of a group of people that will trigger the Heartbeat of Heaven. It is the same cry that this broken vessel cried out in Holland . I give my all to JESUS!
I witness miracles and Healings everywhere we go. It is a mark of a believer and I love it. But something so deep in me is pulled when I hear people get serious for God again.
I have ( and am now) watched Believers grow cold in their love for God. People who were so on Fire for Christ , continue to settle for a low standard and morals. I'm not talking about Old school religious Holiness, don't even try that with me. I know one thing is for sure, If you really give everything to God, and get serious in your heart, You will NEVER be the same again.

Healings and Miracles in Bridgetown


Last night was very Powerful. I know it may seem very cliche, but when Jesus is involved - its always Powerful!
We finished up day 2 of this stop in Bridgetown. After the night before I felt that we were to do an impartation service! I knew that we would begin to see such power released. I normally don't just do these meetings, unless the Lord is really saying to do so.
I Started speaking about the gospel. I do not believe it is the Gospel if there is no power with it. I shared through the scriptures where through Jesus, a miracle settles the issue! We must see the true power of God on demonstration in the days ahead. Not fluff , or manipulation but the raw Power of Jesus! We are in a defining moment in history. My concern is that I am watching generations after generations perish and there is no demonstration of Healing Signs or Wonders. There would not be such thing as dead religion if Gods people walked in Miracle power.
The Body of Christ for years has danced around this elephant in the room. WE MUST PAY A PRICE FOR MIRACLE POWER! We cannot have a Pentecost with no cost. Jesus is looking for who he can demonstrate his fullness through in the days ahead!
After the message like every night this week, Jesus began doing what he always does..Heal Sicknesses and Disease. Dear Blogger friends of mine, Every Healing is soo precious to me. I never get used to watching Jesus touch people, I live for this.
There was a man who had the ligaments torn out of his knee. A well known knee Doctor who has seen over 600 biopsies said this was the worst knee he has seen! This man came last night and was told he would never walk or run again. As we prayed during impartation , his knee began to receive strength again. Then he removed his crutches and his knee brace and began jumping up and down!!! Jesus completely Healed Him!! When the doctors say no , Jesus says YES!!!!
There was another man who had no feeling in his leg. From the knee down he had no strength. Again we prayed and watched this man throw his cane down and begin walking and weeping because Jesus healed him!!!
Jesus is the same Yesterday today and forever!!!
There were arthritis,diabetes,carpal tunnel,backs,shoulders, and many others who testified that Pain was gone and the Lord healed them.
One lady came and had no feeling in her hands, I prayed and Jesus returned the feeling back in her hands. Thank you Lord!!!!!!
I was so Thankful that Jesus is touching his people just like he did in the Bible!!!! He has not Changed!
It was an amazing night of impartation and Healing. Comeon!!!

Worship in Moncton/Wells in Bridgetown


What a Glorious journey this has been! Every stop this trip has been filled with signs and wonders!. We are amazed at what Jesus is doing in Nova Scotia. We had a blast the 2nd night in Moncton. As we arrived there was such a presence that was there from the night before. The staff at the church said that when they arrived that morning for work they were pulled into the sanctuary to worship. It was as if the Spirit of God hovered in that place tangibly all night!!
Again people packed in to the church on a cold night, and trust me , the only thing cold was the outside!!
I Preached from Galatians 1 :12 and 1 Peter 1:7 about having a Revelation OF Jesus Christ. If there was ever a day where the Sons and Daughters of the King must have it , its now. We began to cry out for Revelation of Jesus. There is no doubt that our hunger for Jesus must increase in this hour. Hunger will cause Jesus to manifest and Visit over cities and regions . We have not seen the greatest Outpouring of God's Spirit yet..We have not heard the greatest sermon, This world has yet to hear the Greatest worship songs that will sink us into HIS heart! We must rise up and Believe!
Rick received a word about worship and we began to act it out. I'm talking at least a good Hour and a half of straight on your face crying out worship. Then it hit me. The Lord was saying he was going to Reveal Himself through Worship in this next season.
I'm telling you to get ready. Those of you that are longing for a greater Revelation OF Jesus, we must worship like never before!!
After worship Healing began to break out Bladder condition,Skin disease,diabetes,backs,Hip conditions, and Breathing Conditions were all healed!!! Comeon Jesus!!
Then we drove the 3 hours or so to Bridgetown. We have been here before and it is always great to visit again. The first night was very special because our great friends from Yarmouth , Nova Scotia drove down. Larry Penil and about 20 from his church came to the meetings. Then in a prophetic series of events, Pastor Larry and Pastor Jack presented me with a flag of Nova Scotia and again reminded us all of Henry Alline. Who was a revivalist from Rhode Island, that transformed the Maritimes during the Great Awakening period. They officially welcomed me in as " one of their own".
It was soo moving on soo many levels. For starters, I have been studying a lot about Henry Alline and have been very stirred about this. I feel a similar call is on my life for this region. Also, people in the Maritimes are very guarded. This may have been my 8th trip here, but it took lots of time for it to open like this. I remember my 1st trip to Nova Scotia, me telling Jon " Don't worry , I will keep coming back, they ( the Maritimers) will know that I love them". Lets just say they felt the love..
It was an honor to have some of the key leaders in this region welcome me in. This should be an example for generations on how to do it with honor. I honor these men and seek to aid them in revival!
I began to preach on uncapping the wells. From Gen 28 and shared Jacobs journey of uncapping his fathers well. I talked about the eyes of Faith in this hour to see this Land as a place of visitation, and not just a " stone to lay your head on".
Such faith filled the room. People began to contend for their city and well. I recieved a word for Pastor Jack that he would begin to expand his building this year!!! Also many folks were healed and such accurate words of knowledge given!!!
I was truly touched after this night.....

Portal opens over moncton- Unusual Miracles



Comeon!!
There was a blizzard In New Brunswick! Not in the Spirit..For real
About 2 feet of snow fell over this place the day before we came. And it was still snowing. We had a crazy 3 hour drive through Nova Scotia into New Brunswick. Yes my car fishtailed at one point and it didn't look good, but whats a trip without a bit of excitement?
We made it to Moncton yesterday. I have seen snow being from New England but THIS IS SNOW! Wow!
You cant even see the Some restaurant signs the snow is sooo backed up!
We came to our friends here at Water and Wine Church! This is always a wild place and we were lookign forward to this trip here. They just recently grew out of their old location ( which was like in the middle of nowhere) to right in the middle of moncton!
I mean the main drag!! They purchased an old club. ( which still has an active bar downstairs) ...Hilarious.
A strip club offered to pay 10 times the amount and didn't get it! God has other plans.
This was my first time here at this location. It is maybe the most expressive place I have been to. I mean there must be 40 stuffed animal " sheep" all over the pulpit and platform. very crazy but cute. Also the old club left behind their disco ball! Yes I just said that. And we put it on during the meeting at one point!!! ..lol
I have had some powerful encounters here. Last night was no exception!
First of all I was amazed how many people came out in the blizzard like conditions for God! It was an awesome time of worship and I taught from Ephesians 3 on the fullness of God. I talked about how we have used and abused the prophetic movement that gave us a "gimme" "gimme" mentality. And now we have a generation that has been in Good prophetic meetings and they are dying a terrible death with a key in the spirit to " Heal the sick". That to me is sick. I refuse to let another generation die off because simply receiving the key was enough. This is the hour to stop asking for more words and do something with the ones you received! I'm not talking about the pure use of Prophetic ministry..Forget it you know what I'm talking about. The hunger in that place erupted! This place had been ready and waiting for this message. The Lord spoke to me about Moncton Holding a key to Halifax in the Spirit. I didn't fully understand but I know that as Moncton flows, so will Halifax. Both have been stubborn in the Spirit in years past. But They are the two largest cities. Something began to come over me in the meeting..Rick saw a Lion walk into my belly..The Lord showed me Little lions walking into everyone there and new Authority and Boldness would come upon them.
These were the Lion like warriors the bible talks about. This place was being commissioned to invade the city and malls they were on the same street as! I grabbed one of the many stuffed animal Lions that were laying around the platform. I felt the Lord impress on me to pit the lion on the bellies of people and decree The Lion would roar on the inside again!!! ( Tiffany took the lion and did all the ladies)
I began to see a portal opening over Moncton. Not that it hasn't happened, but I have never seen this in the Maritimes before! The obedience of this house is causing something to be opened over their city. I believe that any city can be opened up through radical obedience. And I challenged them to open it up completely so that the World will take notice!!!

Lets just say it was a Blowout! Besides bodies and tears everywhere, God began to bring this group to another level. Lots of angelic stuff and Signs and Wonders began happening. A woman was healed of a severe Colon condition,A man with major shoulder pain, A woman had about 40 ulcers ( canker sores) in her mouth and outside her mouth. She has had them for 20 years. Many times she cannot speak it is such pain!
We Prayed and watched how Jesus took the pain completely away and began to remove them!!!!!!
I will never forget this. Then after the meeting as I was sharing her testimony 3 more were healed of Canker sores in their mouths!! Completely removed and closed up!! I have never seen anything like that before. It just happened one right after another.
It was a night to remember! I am sooo hungry and desperate for more of God! We must recieve ALL Heaven has for us! This is the time
Tonight we will meet again in Moncton...I can only imagine........

Winsdor,Bridgewater,NewGlasgow Day 2-6!!!

We love the Maritimes!
I have so many people who say all the time " How did you get connected out there"? Well the answer really is God!
This trip has not been like any other trip here. Every stop is marked with Miracles. We have seen many , many, salivations and people re-dedicating their lives back to Jesus. Many Healings are taking place!
We went to windsor and upon entering the town I began to see a vision of a major Spiritual fight over this place. I know that you may think that could be said about any place , but this was different. They were in a decision about the inheritance!
We ministered 2 nights and Great Breakthrough took place. I always love how you can actually see the changes on people as the few days go by. The Lord started speaking to me about Henry Alline. He was known as the George Whitfield of the Maritimes. And During the Great Awakening era he was used by God to break open this land. Unlike Whitfield, Henry Alline would often speak about the unseen realm. He had major revelation on it! And craziness of all; He was from RHODE ISLAND!!!!!!
That is wild. I know I love in Rhode Island , but trust me- not a lot has happened there. It is ever so changing now.
So I know that it will be a stretch , but if the people of New Brunswick and Nova Scotia, PEI will allow their minds to be broken into, Jesus will break open the unseen realm again! This is a well that is waiting to be uncapped.
In Winsdor ( which by the way is the birthplace of hockey) there were 5 churches that were represented there. After day 2 it was a complete breakout of God's power.A woman had tenitis in her ear for years, bad ringing and pain , God completely healed her! Also there were Back Conditions, Shoulder,Breathing all types of stuff! I almost felt to stay a few days , it was that good!
We will go back this year and do extended meetings and evangelism. We took a few of the willing folks out into the streets and God moved as always and many words were given!
Sunday morning we moved along to Bridgewater, NS. We were blessed and very honored at this wonderful church. It was very open in the Spirit. God moved mightily, lots of miracles and words were given. It was a real prophetic portal that opened up and it was as if the water spout was fully opened!
Sunday night was amazing as well. We took the 3 hour drive to New Glasgow. Kinda near to my heart , New Glasgow is where I have been to the most. I have a few great families that help with organizing all of my trips to the Maritimes from here.
This time I went to a different church, It was awesome. Again there were many churches represented. 250 plus people came out on a cold snowy Sunday night and The Lord showed me that a Spirit of Revival would come that night.
It was a bit different than normal. I preached from Luke 5 and talked about the cost of Revival. People do not talk about that anymore. We just love watching it or getting touched. ANYONE WHO REALLY KNOWS JAMES LEVESQUE KNOWS THE PRICE I HAVE PAID TO BE WHERE I AM TODAY! Many , Many will never know. I know that we must get more desperate than ever! We must continually fight that compromise to settle for anything less than the fullness.
The Lord showed me that many Men were not leading their homes. Offense was a HUGE stronghold and I know that I exposed lots over that region. It was hard to swallow but very well received. Typically in years past I would always see creative miracles and this time was just Repentance. If you really want the Spirit of Revival , get ready to repent.
It was awesome to see. I gave a word about marriages that were pretty much finished..I said that if they would come forward right now God would restore it! And it happened!
You may think is that it? Can someone just come down and repair years of hurt and bitterness like that? You obviously don't know who Jesus REALLY is?
stay tuned.......

Shubenacadie Salvations Healings...Day 1 of tour


WOW....
You gotta be kidding me> well no...Jesus is the Same Yesterday Today and Forever!!!!!
Yesterday night we started our 10 day Maritime tour of Nova Scotia in Shubenacadie ( shewbinatakey)
It was such a Powerful time in the Lord...
If you ha vent been here before ( Lighthouse Ministries) this is some of the wildest rowdy warriors around. I believe God has given them a "gift" to War in the Heavenlies...
This was our third time here and every time seems to be very timely and Glorious..
As we drove into Nova Scotia , I began to see a Hood in the Spirit covering the whole land. The Lord spoke to me and told me that there has been a Huge attack on revelation and that one of my mandates would be to break this off over places. The enemy has been seeking to "cover" people so they cannot hear and see clearly in the Spirit.
As the worship went on I saw many clear words over this place many were so accurate even the Pastor asked me after if I had " talked to anyone"..It was pretty awesome.
I spoke on Revelation and the value it has, I believe that many people that have been involved in the "prophetic,dream,and Charismatic" circles are struggling because they have not received fresh Revelation..Also many people continue to read a bible and serve a Gospel that has never set them free , so they ultimately trade in one bondage for another.
I began to break off the Hood of unbelief and many started getting delivered, many folks started getting physically healed and lots of words of knowledge about healing, Knees, breathing problems, ect.
Also I did not know but a few weeks ago the Pastor found out that 20 years ago he had a daughter he did not know about, I prayed over her and ( without knowing) gave her this word about breaking off an Orphan Spirit and This void in her life with a Father that was absent !!! It was the most precious sight as she began to get free, years and years of anger coming out and opening her heart.
I began to smell cigarettes as I was ministering and I gave a word that if people would be honest , Jesus would set them free of that addiction..Well 7 people responded, and all of them were set free of addictions!!!
Jesus moved so mightily last night.
Also the greatest miracle was about 8 young people gave their heart to the Lord...Most were of broken homes and addicted to drugs..I prayed with them as rivers of tears ran down their cheeks..
Then another man came to me and said " You prayed over me two years ago , I was addicted to cocaine for most of my life, and since that day ( you prayed) I have never even had a thought of a temptation, I am totally free"..Thank you God!!
There were so many stories after , testimonies of deliverance ,it was awesome.
Words cannot express the joy that flooded my heart last night.
The Lord spoke to me and said that in the next 30 days, there would be people of all ages, that would begin to get sooo desperate for Jesus and the Supernatural that overnight we would see God accelerate their lives..We are in a day of acceleration.
All you need to do is lay down your old crusty mindset that you have had all these years and get free .
If you only knew the Revelation and Beauty that Jesus has for you in this hour!!!
If nothing changes in your life than nothing will ever change.

You will see in the coming days , Believers that have lived 10 and 20 years in the Faith like Smith Wiggelsworth, Overnight catch a new fire and Passion for God and they will be Completely different. It will be like they just got saved..
There were lots of folks who were saved that made new commitments last night to serve Jesus again with all of their heart..
I pray you may do the same.
This is just day 1!!! Imagine what the next 10 days will hold!!! Comeon!!!!

Westerly and New England Ablaze

Hey Bloggahz
Its been a while..I know
Lets just say we have been a bit crazy with the Launch of our new Engaging Heaven Center in Westerly RI. It has been amazing!! We are meeting at The Westerly Armory, every Sunday night at 6pm..for more info go to www.engagingheavencenter.com
We have been contending for the wells of Revival in New England for some time now. I know that we are on the verge of a 3rd great Awakening!!!
Its not enough to just "know" about the history or wells in your land. You must uncap them and walk in the Greater Glory God has intended for you to walk in !!!
God is bringing a team of Revivalists and raising some locally up for some time now. I know there is an army coming unlike the world hasn't ever seen!!
Yesterday we had a woman come to the home group and her Leg grew out!!!!! Also she had major pain and metal rods in her ankles and she walked out completely Healed!!!!!!!!!
The best part about it was I wasn't there. God is using and raising up everyone for this Harvest,
Come be apart of it !!!
