Everyone,
I just really wanted to write and touch base with you guys about where I am at right now as I get settled into Georgia and also to get you guys in the loop before some things start really picking up down here in the next couple of days.
It will become much more hectic around the AIM training center soon and there is some much needed prayer.
So I have been here over a week now and it really has been such a blessing. The first few days included being able to see more of Georgia than ever before as well as take a day trip to Chattanooga, Tennessee which just hits a certain spot for me as I love being anywhere I’ve never been before. (well, almost anywhere)
People here in the south are incredible and I enjoy being amongst them each day, whether I step into a gas station or head into the office.
The last few days for me has included more of a focused time schedule here at AIM. I have specifically spent the last four days getting to know the other “Real Life” leaders that will be along side me in one way or another in months to come. We have all been taking part in the opening portion of the “World Race” training camp.
(If you do not know what the World Race is I STRONGLY encourage you to check out: http://www.theworldrace.org/)
It is an incredible calling for both men and women to travel around the world to eleven countries in eleven months pushing there bodies and spirits to the furthest lengths seeking The Lord, seeking kingdom, restoration, LOVE and something so much more than what we are told is “Normal Christian Living”
Described by one current “racer” as “A school for transformation”
1st Corinthians 12 1,2 quickly comes to mind.
I have seen The Holy Spirit move incredibly. Supernaturally. People are being set free, filled with The Holy Spirit, administering prophetic words…..
1st Timothy 1:7
I spoke to a girl out front of the training center as I was playing guitar one night who shared with me, as she was flipping through a book of names, that her team (world race) had challenged her to seek a word from the Lord about her own name. At this point she had gone by a few different names and there was some identity and family confusion regarding who she was and what she was to be called. We spoke briefly and as she shared with me the “meaning” of my own name as well as my mothers name from the same book. We then said good night and parted.
Two nights later as we were all assembled together in a national park a man who came to speak to us, before starting picked her out of the crowd and spoke over her that God knew her name and went ahead to share that name with her. Precious, was that name. This was the stage of the evening and frankly this entire past three days.
I myself spoke prophetic word over people I have never talked too! Stuff I could never have known about there own lives. New for me, and nothing short of God’s own hand in my life. God is moving and we are blessed.
“Wake up, O sleeper, rise from the dead, and Christ will shine on you.”
Novas training camp starts in two days!
I will be with this team in Mexico until November and i am very excited to spend time with them sooner than later. There is some anxiousness about diving into this having not done it before, but I am trusting the Lord for what lies ahead.
I would like to humbly request your prayers for the travels of the new team coming in as well as there team unity and the Holy Spirits movement over them (fears, issues, conflict) and in them (pain, guilt, sin) for the the entire five days of camp.
Please pray for us leaders as we step into this calling set before us that we might have power, boldness, wisdom and of course love.
We need fellow members of the body to join with us in this. There is a powerful ministry here that God has formed and is using as an instrument of His will for His Kingdom and Glory and we ask for open doors to everything that he would have for us all.
Love all you guys,
Later Y’all……….
Blair.
