Dear Friends,

Then Psalms 46:4 declares that  “There is a river, the streams whereof shall make glad the city of God, the holy place of the tabernacles of the most High.”  

There is a river flowing. There are natural rivers that are refreshing and beautiful. However, you won’t be able to enjoy the river if you don’t make an effort to go to the river. Then you have a choice to just look at it, or touch the water with your toe, or wade, or just cannon ball in. The choice is yours. If you want to enjoy the river of God’s Spirit, you need to seek it out and then immerse yourself in it. Get into the flow and go with God. He’s not going to chase you down, but He does desire to bless you and make you glad, as you draw close to Him.

Ezekiel 47 talks about a river that flows from the temple of God. First, it is up to the ankles, then the knees, then the loins and then it is a river in which to swim.

In Mexico, we sing a song about swimming in the river of God. The song declares that I’m not satisfied to be in up to my ankles, or my knees, nor my shoulders, but I want to swim in the river of God.

Ezekiel 47: 8 tells us that when the waters reached the sea, the sea was healed. Verse 9 says, “And it shall be that every living thing that moves, wherever the rivers go, will live. There will be a very great multitude of fish, because these waters go there; for they will be healed, and everything will live wherever the river goes.’  The sea speaks of the sea of humanity. Everything that the river of God touches will live, and there will be a great harvest of souls (fish). Hallelujah!

I Corinthians 3:16 tell us that we are the temple of the Holy Ghost. Then in John 7:38 it says “He that believeth on me, as the Scripture hath said, out of his belly shall flow rivers of living water.”

The Spirit of the Lord wants to flow through us to bring life, healing, and joy to lost and hurting people.

“There is a river, the streams whereof shall make glad the city of God….” Psalms 46:4. We don’t have to wait for it. It’s here. Jump in!

Swimming,

Barbara

Faith Ministries Church Outreaches

On Flag Day FMC did an outreach to all of the security forces in the area. We put out advertisement that thanked them and let them know we pray for them and appreciate what they do, because the security of our Homeland is precious! We served them lunch, provided live music, and had fun activities for the families.

On July 4th, we passed out over 1,100 bottles of free water and tracks about the Living Water at the parade. 

Living Faith Mission Team

Pastors Tim and Ann Jerry brought a group from their church in Exeland, WI to minister in Mexico for a week. They were a wonderful blessing to every church we visited.

Sunday in Villa Hidalgo a wedding was included in the evening service. There were also powerful times of prayer with pastors who attended.

Monday we did a service in the plaza of La Colonia. The attendance was good and almost everyone came forward for prayer. People were saved, healed, and baptized in the Holy Spirit. Pastor Alberto was thrilled, as he has been sowing God’s Word there for a long time.

Tuesday in Nacozari there was a powerful service with lots of prophetic utterances and Pastor Tim sang a new song from the Spirit about the River of God.

Wednesday morning the team did a cultural program in the grade school in Jecori and that night in Jecori, the director, the teacher, and her husband were in church. Several new people from Jecori attended. It was a time of rejoicing. The next morning our team did a cultural program there in the middle school.

Thursday night we had a powerful Holy Ghost service in Tepache.

The team also painted our fence at the mission station, which has needed done forever! Praise the Lord! It is beautiful.
