This has been
an extraordinary three months of the demonstration of the Spirit and power. Like the three
week revival in a little church in the northern part of Michigan in Aug-Sept. God poured
out His love and blessing upon His people nightly. I have been in this church for about
six revivals and these were the all time best.
Sadly, a lot of people did not come. Even people who had been blessed in previous
revivals in this church. Why? Who knows. Maybe they got discouraged when they found the
problem they had before was still not resolved. Maybe they made the decision not to
continue in the things of God. Or is it because they did not realize that God has seasons
of blessing, correction and change for each of us . . . (continued

| Stomach cancer healed. Deaf ear opened. |
|
| WOW!!! What an awesome three weeks of revival meetings in
Grayling Michigan, with pastor Patty Petrie. Heavens gates opened each night and God
rained down His glory. There were significant breakthroughs each meeting as God reached
down to touch sick and hurting people. As always, there is not enough space to list all
that God did, but there were some notable miracles of healing. A couple who were born
again two months ago, came to the meeting on Monday night. She came forward for the altar
ministry, and God gave her an awesome word and the power of God literally dumped her on
the floor. She lay for about one hour and finally got up and told us God had healed her.
She had been suffering for about a week from a stomach condition that the doctors
considered serious. In fact they suspected stomach cancer. But God had removed all pain.
After the meeting, she went to eat at the pastors house and was able to eat without pain
and retain it. They went home rejoicing. The couple were so excited because God had also
healed her husbands deaf ear. She walked about for a long time saying "Can you hear
me now? ... Can you hear me now?" to test his hearing.
This is an amazing testimony of God's miraculous intervention. Having suffered abuse in
a satanic ritualistic home at the hands of satanist high priests parents, she ran away
from home at the age of 12.
Together with her husband of 30 years, they decided to end their lives by jumping of a
bridge. Pastor Patti had written them a letter inviting them to church. They came and got
gloriously saved. It was an absolute joy to witness the ongoing saga of God's intervention
in their lives during the three week revival.

| Revival in the North West |
|
| I returned to beautiful Washington State for revival meetings.
This was my third visit this year. I think the meetings were better than the previous two
times. It seemed that people were really hungry and open and ready for God to come an
bless them. Central Park Neighbourhood Church in Aberdeen was the first stop and we had
two meetings a day for one day short of two weeks. You would think people were tired of
meetings. But not so. Even though the attendance was not as good as during the meetings in
Spring, those that came were deeply touched.
The Joy broke out every night. We never got to leave the building much before 11 -
11:30pm nightly. In fact, when I left, there were still people enjoying the presence of
the Lord. The pastor and his wife have a real heart for revival in the area. I found the
leadership extremely friendly and open to the move of God.
I ended my North West revivals at Kirkland AG. My third visit was for friday night
only. It went so well, that the pastor asked me to stay for their saterday night meeting.
God's presence and glory in the church was very evident. God has raised this church up to
be a lighthouse in the area. They are not ashamed of the presence and glory of God. |
| Meetings for 2003 |
|
| We are excitedly looking forward to a revival filled new year. In
February we will be in Nashville, TN for a week of revival at St. Matthias Episcopal
Church. They have all been touched in a previous revival and are hungry for more of the
presence and power of God. Pray for these meetings. This is a first in the City of
Nashville. We are expecting a great outpouring of the Spirit of God.
NORWAY - We are planning to be in Norway for the balance of February into March. This
is in the planning stages. Scandinavia needs a great outpouring of the glory of God. Thank
you for your prayer and support. |
| Blessings on you and your family for 2003 |

| The seasons of
God's blessing ... |
 |
| Fall is an amazing time of transformation. The green of summer is
over and fall blankets the country in a swathe of red's, yellow's and browns. What an
awesome sight to behold. God has seasons too, and His seasons bring much blessing,
change and new direction for us. They are seasons that require us to make new decisions
all the time. From complex decisions to simple every day decisions.
Some people never go on to new heights in God simply because they do not make the
decision to do so. They allow the cares of this world to enter in and choke the word of
God in them. Instead of letting the rain of the Spirit fall and bring new growth and
blessing.
Let the seasons of God's blessing, refreshing, correction and healing change your life
and make it into what God has planned it to be.
