Conference Testimonies and Breakthroughs

I just wanted to share with you how your teaching and impartation has blessed me.

I am still in awe over this past weekend. I have never had an experience like this. Everything I thought I knew has been challenged. I have been a believer for a very long time. I am realizing I didn't know anything. I feel like a naked baby:) I came to Christ in a very solid Bible teaching church that didn't practice the gifts. I was tempted to run out of the church on Thursday night. Everything you said and did was new to me.

I just came off the battle field a few weeks ago. I had fought to stop my ex-husband from continuing to harm young woman through prostitution/porn production. I learned of this during our marriage and the long battle began. I endured months of harassment and abuse but God held me up through it and He brought swift justice. Ex-husband will be in prison for a very long time.

I was exhausted just like Elijah. The battle fought after the battle won. This makes sense (the 4-F's) Thank you:)

I have been an orphan. Like really orphaned. I don't have any family. I grew up in foster care. Then I lost my only child in a car accident 6 years ago. People have been positioned to pour into me. But I have had an orphan spirit. I am now a daughter!! This changes everything:)

My belief system was wrong. I had to repent! I not only fought for justice..I have been fighting for Gods design in Politics, I have been attacking Islam and fighting to keep it out of our country. I learned this weekend that all of that fighting I have been doing has been wrong. I am now a daughter with my only position is to reflect my father. I don't have to fight only love those that are separated from my Father. I cant wait to share Gods love with Muslims and with everyone I come in contact with:) God told me yesterday to "get ready". Last week He told me He was going to take me deeper. I didn't know what that meant. He also told me He was going to expand my borders. I took that as He was going to promote me..He did:) From servant ..to daughter:) Thank you!

The walls around my heart have fallen off. I left my fear of people because of being wounded by the church at the church on Thursday night. Leif, you touched me with Gods love and I will never be the same. I cant even thank you enough. My whole world has been turned upside down, inside out. Is this a common reaction? I am asking God..now what? But right now all I want is to be in His presence:) I am leaning back..receiving..resting:) Thank you- Thank you- Thank you-

Malachi 4:2
But for you who revere my name, the sun of righteousness will rise with healing in its wings and you will go out and leap like calves from the stall.

I will hold you in my prayers as you continue to help sanctify my brothers and sisters through out the World. I also pray a blessing on you and your precious family:)

In His Love,

Pain Disappears

Tell Leif when he's back that I'm doing great and haven't had a bit of pain from the surgery sites from my accident in 04 since Sunday night. Then I got to Greenway and I could barely walk or sit in the chair and listen to him speak. After he laid hands on me, I felt what I can only describe as a jolt of electricity. Then a hot bright light surrounded me before the others ever touched me.

I haven't been to the doctor yet to confirm a negative result of the Hepatitis C test, but I can tell you that I gave my cane to Gary on my way out the door and haven' t had even the slightest pain since. I will let you know what the result of the test is, but I think we both know already it will be NEGATIVE for Hepatitis C.

May God bless you all as much as he's blessed me. I Love you all!

Broken Heart Touched

Jesus healed my broken heart on Friday night during a Isaiah 61 Ministries conference with Leif Hetland in Erie, Pennsylvania in May of 2008.

I received prayer and fell on the floor by the power of the Holy Spirit. In a vision, I saw my oldest son Jonathan’s face and I heard- you need to know that I’m OK dad- you need to know that I’m OK. Jonathan was only 13 years old and he had autism. Jonathan was killed by his caregiver last year. The vision changed and I saw my heart with a large crack in it. Then Jesus appeared and walked towards me and touched my chest. I began to weep and I knew He healed my broken heart. Glory to God!

During the Saturday morning meeting the presence of God was incredibly powerful. During the worship time my legs became weak because of the Glory of God, so I laid on the floor and the Lord delivered me from rejection and disappointments. I first saw a vision of two eagles: one white in color and one gold in color. As I was lying there on the floor, I saw an eagle fly over to me and remove what looked like a garbage bag with the word rejection written on it and carry it over a river. I could also see a garbage barge floating on the river loaded with garbage. The eagle dropped the bag of rejection on the garbage pile. Then another eagle came and removed a garbage bag with the word disappointments written on it and carried it to the same garbage barge. This time as the eagle dropped the garbage bag of disappointments on the barge, the entire pile of garbage on the barge instantly ignited in flames. Thanks be to God for his awesome delivering power and His amazing love.

Arteries Unblocked

I passed out in my driveway 2 years ago this July. They rushed me into the hospital where I had tests and was diagnosed with coronary artery disease. They put a stent in my heart at that time. I had one 100% blockage, and one 60% blockage. By December the 60% blockage had become 100% and I had another 60% blockage as well as numerous smaller ones. They did emergency surgery again and put in another stent.

The following summer I was taken to the hospital with severe chest pains. They tried for about 4 hours to get them under control. Again, they could not find a reason for it. They did not know why the blockages were coming. There was no apparent reason why they should be forming, especially at that rate.

After my last surgery I started having chest pains. Within the past 6 months they have increased considerably. I was having 12-15 episodes during the day when I would have severe pains. They would last from 15 seconds up to 15 minutes. Since Leif prayed for me in Ankeny, IA in April, I have not had one chest pain. In fact, I don't even think about it any more. I praise God for His faithfulness. When I passed out in my driveway the Lord told my wife not to pray for healing, but, pray for a NEW heart. I believe that He has given me that.

Father Loves You Conference

This conference greatly blessed our church.

We did a tunnel of love on Sunday morning and had everyone come through for prayer and for hugs and for impartation of Father’s blessing.

Some came that I usually see run from hugs. One man who is rather skeptical said that he felt the little girl who laid hands on him must have had “hot hands” in her pocket to make her hands feel so warm.

One lady who is new to Agape never made all the way through the line. The power of God hit her and she just rested in His presence while Papa healed her deepest wounds. After the service was over, they brought me over as pastor to hug her and give her a father’s blessing. She just received again and rested some more in His presence as God continued His healing work.

My own son who is 9 has been uncomfortable with expressing love and recently my wife and I had talked about our concern for his stiffness. Since this conference and impartation he has changed. He has begun to say “I love you.” to me. He sometimes just blurts out, “I love my family!”

One couple came in on Monday as some things were stirred up in their emotions. They had a lot of conflict in their relationship. Part of the conflict stemmed from his sister who gave him drugs when he visited her. He agreed that he did not want to go that way, but he felt that he did not have the strength to say no. We prayed for his sister. Tuesday, the next day, she called him and said that she had quit “using.” She no longer had the desire to compulsion. She had been set free. She drove up for church the next Sunday and came to tell me of what God had done in her. Her brother was just shocked. He was totally blown away by the change in his sister.

I just met with a couple that is new to Agape. She said that Friday Leif prayed for him and the power of God just took him down. They were grateful that it happened to him first because they both knew that if she had fallen under the power he would have thought that it was just fake. Then his unchurched daughter was visiting him and experienced the power of God. The dad and daughter were not open or seeking – just cooperating with the “tunnel of love” thing. God got ‘em.

Lower Back Healed

"I wanted to take a moment to report my healing this weekend. During the 5 minute violin solo, I asked the Lord to heal my lower back problem. I had some reservations that evening, but Sunday and today I have felt perfect. I have not felt this good in over 4 years. God has healed me!!! I enjoyed meeting you this weekend. Maybe if the Lord directs in the future I would join one of your traveling events. I will watch your website for updates."

Breathing Issues Healed

I have had problems with my breathing and constantly getting sinus infections for many years. I have recently seen an ENT who did a CT scan of my nose and sinuses. He found my sinuses were clear, but the construction of my nose was causing all the problems. I am scheduled for surgery in a little over a week to correct my deviated septum and trim the pieces of cartilage in my nose that are blocking air flow.

During meeting, I noticed a dramatic increase in the air flow through my nose. It was much easier to breathe than it has been in a long time. I also started to smell things I haven't been able to smell in a while because of decreased air flow through my nose.

God is so good!! I don't feel that this is completely 100% yet, but I am focusing on what God is doing. It is amazing to me to be able to simply breathe without thinking about it so much. I give God all the glory no matter what happens from this point on!!"

Revelation of Humility

I had a spiritual healing...I had been so arrogant, full of pride, boastful, seeking man's approval, needing to be seen as always doing good, desiring to be first, that I was never able to break through into what I heard man say was available to me from God. The throne of my heart was not available for God to build His Kingdom in. Then I was quickened to read all I could in 1 hour and 40 minutes before service started about humility and "the heart". I asked God to humble me and He did. I broke out in tears and spent worship time by myself, but within earshot of the worship service, and allowed God to till the soil and plant the seed and show me what true humility is. I returned to the service and watched Leif preach the very message of what I had just been through and I allowed me to forgive myself and to press in and receive. I am now walking out the deliverance Christ afforded me!!! Praise God and thank you Lord for doing this a at time like this."

Calf Muscle Healed

"On Saturday, April 12th, I was dancing before the Lord in worship when I tore my right calf muscle. I had to use a walking boot and crutches for one week and was to keep the boot on for an additional 3 to 5 more weeks. On Sunday night, April 20th, Leif released a healing anointing over the children and I asked Austin Covert to pray for me. I took off the boot so he could put his hands directly on my leg. A number of other kids came around to lay hands on me as well. An hour later (after getting up off the carpet) my leg was 90% healed. That night, I walked out of the church without my leg brace. Praise God!!

The next morning, I woke up to it hurting once again. So, I reclaimed my healing, put the boot in the back of my car, and went to work. I am a restaurant manager, so I do a lot of walking. When I left my car to go into the building, I also left the boot and, once again, praise God, I had NO trouble walking! When I arrived home from work, I put the boot and the crutches in storage."
