Well, today is my day off. in the past 2 days i've worked a 12hr day, then a 11 hr day. I was pretty proud of myself, though really tired and i txt my mate who is a dairy farmer. he pops my bubble saying he did an 18hr day cause the milking shed had a break down. he said they started at 4 and finished at 10 that night. very loud pop. hahahaha so yeah its been good, enjoying work. though 2 of the guys are a bit..... well normal for world standards really. actually prolly on the good end of the scale. hahaha, yeah Jesus cleanse my ear gates. so i love all my work mates. especially the maori and pacific islanders! they crack me off. and the cool thing is they like me too! I'm like "hey sup bro! how's it man?!?!?! and they allways give me the bro shake you know. i love it. and there is this girl hahaha from the cheque (i can't spell the country) republic and she always giggles at me... lol and i can't always understand what she says so i just smile and say ya. one of my manager dan, he's the man. he's so relaxed aye. he's been at breakers for 3 years and is so amazing.
So.... whats God been up to with me. well i got home last night....... OH i have to tell you this first. I have a new addiction! try it everyone. i came home from work, opened up the fridge, got out a HUGE coke glass, you know, typical Coke. and i filled is up half way with just juice (mango and whatever one) and the rest with scweps (grrrr) lemonade and sit down and read the newspaper or a book. it is a fantastic way to wind down and relax and get ready for bed. oh my goodness. SO addicted! lol anyways.... back to what God's been doin. I got home, drank my fantastic drink and then went to go to bed. i'm all ready and then I thought it a good idea to read the bible. whenever i find myself thinking its a good idea to read my bible... it always is! duh! and i've been reading isaiah 60 the past 2 nights.
1 Arise, shine; for your light has come, and the glory of the LORD has risen on you.
2 For behold, the darkness shall cover the earth, and gross darkness the peoples; but the LORD shall rise on you, and His glory shall be seen on you.
3 And the nations shall come to your light, and kings to the brightness of your dawning.
ok so flip, doesn't that blow your mind! as we arise in Christ, in His Power and Light, the Glory of God rises with us. and gosh we all know that darkness (sin) covers the earth and a deeper darkness the people. BUT the lord shall rise on you..... promises.... own it! and the glory of God.... THE GLORY OF GOD ALMIGHTY!!!!!!! will be seen on ME! WAHOO! thats so cool. yes yes yes yes yes Lord! and then people will come to you. and they get touched by God out of my relationship with God! seriously cool!
so i ended up doing some sweet intercession like i never done before. shuda come ba see da ma ...... yeah Holy Spirit was there. and i slept so good too. maybe thats for someone, you need to have a mean tongues prayer time before you go to sleep and you'll sleep good as.
One other thing God confirmed to me was praying from a place of victory. Jesus won the victory, so pray from the victory. example: thank you Jesus you've won this battle, thank you that ....... will be restored, thank you for the work you've done in their life etc. thanking the Lord is so important. it also gives you freedom. and some people are like, but they aren't saved and you're thanking God they are. When we do that we're "calling what is not as though it where" (Romans 4:17b) and are speaking earth to align with heaven.
ya. good stuff, well blessings guys. love to you all through Jesus our Lord!
