Streams Unite, Head Out Into The Market Place

Today our Saturday team of Treasure Hunters traveled to Costa Mesa to impart our break through to a couple churches hungry for market place ministry.

Wow. What a fun day!

Following some simple training, we presented a skit depicting a typical market place encounter, then we got almost all involved in praying for one another. We handed all a 3 x 5 card and asked them to write down the first word/impression they received. We collected the cards and read them out loud. Those who identified were asked to stand for prayer, the rest were told to pray for those standing as though it was a market place encounter.

Following lab time, we soaked in worship music while some went around the room and prayed over those soaking.

Finally we handed out clue sheets and asked people to write down any impressions, words of knowledge they received. Then we broke into teams who were assigned the task of figuring out the location God was highlighting through the clues.

The teams talked over their clues while eating lunch, which led to impartation accomplished through a fire/prophetic tunnel. Wow.

The teams recovered from their journey through the tunnel and loaded into cars for the market place!

A couple hours later we reconvened at the church to share stories.

I would estimate that we managed to minister to roughly 75 people who were told they are God's treasure. Many accepted prayer and blessing.

There were so many great stories, I am trying to recall some of them as I type.

One team included a woman who worked in one of the clue locations, so she did not go into the store. However, she was able to identify one of the employees who matched two clues. The woman was found by another employee, she had been working in the storeroom. She was called out by name and by the condition she was suffering. She was uneasy receiving prayer while working, but was assured by the team they would be praying for her.

One team found three sets of people in one isle that matched clues, they hit the jack pot!

Another person was found through a name clue, he was a ticket taker at a venue the team was sent to.

Another woman was found in a pet shop due to location clues, and appearance clues. She received prayer/prophetic ministry.

another man was found through a clue and was eager for he and his son to be blessed in prayer by team members.

There were several more stories told...need to get team members to send in testimonies.

Stay tuned......

Romans 10:14 How, then, can they call on the one they have not believed in? And how can they believe in the one of whom they have not heard? And how can they hear without someone preaching to them? 15 And how can they preach unless they are sent? As it is written, "How beautiful are the feet of those who bring good news!"
