"Miracles in Turkey during Alo Dua's 'Big
Island Outreach '05' - 'The Lord really gave us favor!'"
May 26, 2005
It's
evident by a report from the Turkey Alo Dua Revival Outreach workers that the hand
of the Lord in favor was upon the group of Christians as they participated in the
"Big Island Outreach" last month. Seventeen of the Alo Dua workers gathered with
a van-full of New Testaments to distribute.
They were worried at first about the steady downpour that ensued, but later realized
it was actually a great blessing as no reporters or camera men were able to take
their pictures, keeping them safer. "The Lord hid us in the rain! This day at the
Big Island '05, we gave out 8,400 New Testaments . . . "

"The
Focus of Our Love"

Our
Need For The Deliverer
Things are getting more defined as we move into the next season in our walk with
Jesus. It is encouraging to see the hand of the Lord direct our paths and establish
our steps. He is so faithful to walk us down roads we have never seen before.
In John 3:16-20 it says,
"For God
so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in
Him should not perish but have everlasting life. For God did not send His Son into
the world to condemn the world, but that the world through Him might be saved.
"He
who believes in Him is not condemned; but he who does not believe is condemned already,
because he has not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God. And this
is the condemnation, that the light has come into the world, and men loved darkness
rather than light, because their deeds were evil. For everyone practicing evil hates
the light and does not come to the light, lest his deeds should be exposed." NKJV
God is not into condemnation. This
Scripture says that men LOVED darkness rather than light because their deeds were
evil and they didn't want to be found out. Darkness and secrets are designed, by
hell, to cripple us and hurt us. God is after secret things so He can heal us. Whatever
is not exposed has strength and an ability to keep us prisoners, preventing us from
moving forward in destiny and the path He has set before us.
Changing the Focus
John Paul Jackson always says, "What you focus on, you make room for."
When we focus on God, we make room for Him and He becomes most important in our
lives. That is the place where everything makes sense; where darkness and sin loose
their grip on us. When darkness is exposed, it has no power and cannot keep anyone
in prison any longer.
Psalm 34:3 says:
"Oh, magnify the
Lord with me, and let us exalt His name together." NKJV
When we magnify the Lord, He becomes
very large and is the main focus. The word "magnify" literally means:
1 a : EXTOL, LAUD b : to cause
to be held in greater esteem or respect 2 a : to increase in significance : INTENSIFY
b : EXAGGERATE
The focus has to be changed. If we
focus on sin or wrongdoing, it becomes larger than the Lord. If we focus on the
Lord, we don't want to sin.
We love because He first loved us.
God literally teaches us to love, because He IS Love. He doesn't just have love.
He is a safe place. God already knows what is going on and stands ready to deliver
us from everything the enemy has tried to do to keep us from fulfilling our destiny.
Every evil work loses its power when
the light of God is invited in. God is not a condemning God . . . He just wants
to restore us and make us free. He is very passionate about restoration. That is
why God sent Jesus to die for us. When the object of our love is changed, we get
free from every evil trap and bondage that has tried to keep us prisoners.
On The Streets
We do a lot of street ministry. Everything from prophetic, encouraging words to
healing ministry and dream interpretation. Our desire is to take the "Light" of
the world to dark places so people will have a choice to change the focus of their
love -- where they won't love darkness anymore, but will love the Light instead.
We just offer people a taste of "the Bread of Life" and a safe place to change their
focus and get a new life and direction.
A loving Creator reaches out to the
ones He has made and offers them life for death. The Love of God is so strong. Compassion
and mercy surround us. Love compels us to go out and compels them to come in. A
great exchange takes place. An exchange from the dirty to the clean, from the prison
to the freedom, from darkness to light, from shame to embrace, from depression to
joy, from rejection to acceptance. A discovery is made that, truly, NOTHING can
or ever will separate us from the love of Christ.
He is WITH us and FOR us. FOREVER.
Compassion Without Compromise
God is a compassionate God, but not a compromiser when it comes to sin, wrongdoing,
and going against things He has clearly told us in His Word. Sin has a payment.
It is called "death." The "Lifegiver" has a MAJOR problem with things that cause
death. It is not a time to hold on to things that He is trying to deliver us from.
No matter what sin may have overtaken us, there is nothing too shameful or dirty
that God will not make clean. His arms are outstretched, ready to forgive, and heal.
God is into love and forgiveness.
In His compassion and mercy, He is uncovering things right now so they can be dealt
with and He will take them from us. It is of major importance that this happens.
Multitudes are in the valley of decision right now, and as revival fires get closer,
many more will be there. It is time to position ourselves for the greatest harvest
of souls the world has ever seen. We must get things dealt with in our own lives
so He can fully use us in the coming days.
The Author of Life knows how life is to be lived. It seems logical to listen to
Him and do things His way. Laws are trying to be forced that re-define things the
Lord put in place from the beginning of time. Everything from the institution of
marriage to removing God from our constitution. God is the Creator of marriage.
It was His idea in the first place. No one in the world would even have any knowledge
about marriage and intimacy if He hadn't defined it for us and told us about it.
There seems to be a growing mindset
in the world that if God is simply removed from the scene, then He won't be visible
and have to be reckoned with. It would be hard to remove the God of the Universe
from the Universe.
Colossians 1:12-17 says,
"
. . . giving thanks to the Father, who has qualified us to share in the inheritance
of the saints in Light. For He rescued us from the domain of darkness, and transferred
us to the kingdom of His beloved Son, in whom we have redemption, the forgiveness
of sins. He is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn of all creation.
"For by Him
ALL things were created, both in the heavens and on earth, visible and invisible,
whether thrones or dominions or rulers or authorities -- ALL things have
been created through Him and for Him. He is before ALL things, and in Him
ALL things hold together." NASB (Emphasis mine)
ALL things, not just some things.
He doesn't just have truth, He IS the TRUTH and HE IS NOT GOING AWAY.
Joy follows Obedience
A war is raging and the things MUST be dealt with that are out of order in
our own lives. In these hours, as we will listen closely to the Holy Spirit, He
will lead us and guide us into ALL truth and the Truth sets people free.
As we willingly give things up that are keeping us slaves, joy replaces
sadness and freedom replaces bondage. There are three things we can do
immediately to come into freedom:
1) Talk to God a lot. Talking to a non-condemning God who loves us with all
of His heart is not a hard thing to do. He is waiting for us to come to Him so He
can forgive us and pilot us through this season. God will give us wisdom for the
asking and immediately take sin from us and remove it so far from us that we can't
see it anymore. When we confess it to God and ask Him to help us, He does. In the
early 70s, I was in a ministry where I heard Leonard Ravenhill make a statement.
He said, "When men start praying, they stop sinning." Pretty simple, but it is true.
2) Follow your leader. It is God's choice to give us people in our lives
to oversee us. Humble leaders who have God's heart are put there by God to protect
us. It's for our good. He speaks to them about you and gives them wisdom for you
and your specific needs. They will pray for you and with you about issues you are
facing. A bond forms with them and, together, you can advance in your growth in
God.
3) Cease striving. When we can relax, we can let God take us into this
next season. If we will do this, the path will be easy to see and follow. God is
fashioning us for the things He has for us in this next season. When we get there,
we will be the right person for the right thing at the right time. If we rush ahead
without knowing what we are rushing to, then we can hinder the thing He has for
us. Our natural tendency is to do things the way we have always done them, but there
are new things God wants to use us for in the coming days. God is FOR us, all the
way.
Expect great joy as we let God lead, instruct, and adjust us.
Be Blessed,
Cindy McGill

Gary
Oates' new book, Open My Eyes, Lord, is captivating, in the fullest sense
of the word. While it is theologically sound, it is also experientially
riveting. This is a story that is not content to remain on the pages of a book.
It contains the very heart of God, igniting everything it touches. Somehow the
story of Gary's encounters with the Lord has affected my own hunger for God.
