I had a most amazing day today. Part of me is so exhausted that I don't even want to write this, but I know that if I put if off it will just start to pile up (kinda like my emails lately).

It started off kinda rocky and I had to work through some things in my heart and with a friend, but afterward, the Lord really kissed me. I think going through the junk just prior to that was also a kiss from heaven, because the Lord was answering a prayer that I do not want anything in my life that will hinder love.

So, Roger and I set out for a meeting with the Georgia Right to Life people and we were blown away, mostly because the Lord's hand was all over it. The guy we met with had actually been to my church and had met Roger before (but not me since I was in DC at the time), but it took a few minutes for them to put the pieces together. The meeting was great and we really felt like we established a good relationship with the different directors. We feel that the Lord strategically linked us up and that He is setting the stage for major victory in Atlanta.

Next, we head over to IHOP for the all-staff intercession set that just so happens to be right smack in the middle of the extended Global Bridegroom Fast. Let's just say that the meeting exploded as the spirit of intercession fell on us. The set was scheduled to end at 6pm, but they didn't even transition out until around 6:45! This was amazing. And all we were doing was basically crying out for the Lord to "COME!" This was a kiss from heaven straight up. God just loves to hear His kids crying out to Him for something that is SO on His heart. I literally sensed the Lord's extreme pleasure with this House.

After that we drove on to see Pastor LaRue Atkinson speak at my church. All the way there Roger and I are still gripped with intercession and it does not stop. We get there and Holy Spirit breaks in. It is hard to explain what exactly happened. All I know is that I couldn't stay in my chair. I was on the floor for the majority of the time. For those of you that know me, this never happens. Mr. Atkinson started talking about this angel that was in the room that had a mantle of inheritance. That's when it began. I fell out of my chair and began moaning. I think other things were going on too, but I have no idea. I was totally gripped by what he was prophesying over us. He literally spoke the same things I have been hearing all day and at that point I realized that the Lord was speaking to me.

First of all He re-confirmed the fact that He is building up Atlanta to be a beacon. He first spoke this to me in August after I saw Lord of the Rings: Return of the King (which is awesome). He told me that Atlanta was going to be like one of those beacons in the movie. He spoke this to me specifically about Bound4Life, but I believe that it goes hand-in-hand with the word spoken about Atlanta about it being a City of Refuge. Today, twice, two different people prayed that prayer. I am really in awe. God is so cool.

Secondly, this morning I was praying Prov. 3:4-5. I prayed that he would make my paths straight. Again, two different people prayed that prayer, not necessarily over me, but they prayed it out and it struck me that the Lord is answering that prayer for me. He really is making my paths straight. Thank you Jesus!

Needless to say, I drank deeply of that "new wine" tonight. I was laid out on the floor for almost the entire talk. Because the Spirit was so thick, especially when LaRue began to prophesy and pray and other people were laid out to, no one really seemed to care. I barely made it home. I do not want to leave this place. This is good. This is God.
