We Need a Big Favor, Don't Read Unless You Will Actually Do This

I know many of you hold our family tight in prayer. For that we are so thankful. As you pray, could you make this declaration over us, our family, and our ministry?

"Thank you Lord for the missionaries and their families. We ask that You would:

Encourage them by Your Word and promises.

Give them understanding, wisdom, insight and FRESH revelation.

Help them to be strong in supernatural strength and ability.

May signs and wonders follow them wherever they go.

We pray for open doors of ministry, necessary visa’s, permits and extraordinary language aptitude.

Give divine favor and connections. Open doors that no man can shut and make the impossible, possible.

Comfort them in times of loneliness.

Give them friends and relationships with like hearted people.

Lift them above every obstacle that appears before them.

Give them dreams in the night seasons from Your heart.

We cut off every assignment from the enemy and we speak breakthrough in every area that is causing discouragement, fear or doubt.

We ask for Your peace and joy to invade their circumstances.

We speak divine protection and good health over them.

We ask for provision spiritually, emotionally, physically and financially.

We speak victory over them and bless, bless, bless them Lord Jesus!

This is the missionary declaration used by Bill Johnson's Bethel Church of Redding, CA.

Thank you so much for declaring this over our missionary work, and over any other missionaries you may know.

Can You Change the World from a Desk?

A common refrain heard on cop shows and action movies, "I don't want to be stuck behind a desk, I want to be on the street where the action is!" Can you change the world from a desk? In a single day I (Dave) had meetings "in" the Philippines, Nepal, the Ukraine, Poland, Guyana, AND the United States, all while sitting at my desk. In February we were promoted as the Vice Presidents of Equipp...

Empowering the Next Generation

A big step in becoming a missionary with Go To Nations is the Timothy Internship Program . This is a 10 week boot camp that prepares you for full time missionary service in a foreign country. I call it a missionary factory. Chris and I were directors of this internship in the Philippines, Thailand, and the US. Recently I traveled to the Philippines to equip and empower Jeff Weimert  and Ryan Hull  to be the directors of the ...

Departing

Leaping off the Leadership Development post, I have some somewhat sad news. Chris and the kids will be leaving for the States this Saturday. They leave for Manila on Friday, and then fly onward to the States on Saturday, arriving in Baltimore around midnight (Maryland time) Saturday evening. Why is this sad? My responsibilities with the internship require me to say in Iloilo until the internship is completed. I will be returning to the States March 23. We have never been apart as a family for so long. Honestly I am very much not looking forward to being away from my family. I am not looking at this as a "break" from my kids so I can finally do some "real ministry." I am willing to fulfill my responsibilities here in Iloilo, especially as it involves training future full-time missionaries. However, I am not at all looking forward to being apart from my most favorite people in the world. The reason why Chris needs to leave for the States at this time is beca...
