New Beginnings in the Glory
New Beginnings in the Glory
A few days before the Encounter in February, I was asking the Lord whether I should attend. The Lord spoke to me and said “that if I went, I would be encouraged.” At that time I was really discouraged so I decided to attend. When worship began on Saturday morning, I felt the Lord’s presence enter into the room and immediately I knew I was suppose to be there. Richard Hanson prayed for me that morning during ministry time and I was really touched by the presence of the Lord with His peace and love. In fact many times throughout the day, I found myself crying as I heard the messages being spoken from Richard Hanson and Tommy Tenny because those were the exact messages I needed to hear at that moment. As I left the encounter that evening, I felt really lifted up as the Lord promised to me early in the week. When I found out in March that Richard Hanson was coming for Sunday services, I decided I needed to take my family with me to the evening service. Richard prayed for my family that evening and the Lord touched my wife and me in a significant way. For the first time in many years, I saw the joy of the Lord touch my wife as she began laugh and experience again the wonderful presence of the Lord. After receiving ministry, I found a small gemstone lying next to me. Immediately, I showed my seven year old daughter. Her face lit up with excitement and I told her it was for her. In the past we prayed several times together that the Lord would give her a gemstone. My family left encouraged and our faith was strengthened that night. Thank you for hosting these meetings. My family has been blessed and touched by the Lord through your ministry.
Blessings,
