USA Ministry Trip - October 2007

Monday 22nd October - Final post from the USA

Hi Guys!

Well...this has been an excellent trip in many ways.

My time with Graham Cooke was a real blessing, as was my time with my friends in Mobile. It was great to catch up with them after all this time.

The ministry in Huntsville, Alabama was awesome - we had a great time with the folks at the church and God moved powerfully, especially during the times of worship and prophetic drumming/singing. The people were very open to the teachings and were obviously hungry for more of God.

I enjoyed my visits to the NASA space and rocket centre in Huntsville and also to Graceland in Memphis.

SHATTER was an incredible experience, and I just loved being a part of it - the worship was awesome and I had great fun helping with the drum circle.

I then played percussion at Lakepointe (Baptist) church, which went very well. It is a HUGE church of about 10,000 people and I played at 3 services, which was cool, though different to what I am used to.

I am going back to the UK tomorrow, but it looks like I will be back here sooner than I thought....God has opened up some good doors, so watch this space....

Love, Steve.

SHATTER fest has been awesome! The worship has been incredible and the teaching has been really good.
I have made some good friends amongst the musicians and I know I'll be involved with them in future. The drum circle that I was involved with went really well - very prophetic and a lot of FUN! Thanks for your prayers.
Tonight's worship was great - a really sweet time with the Lord in the holy place - real intimacy stuff, which was refreshing.
Well...tomorrow I'm off to Rockwall to drum alongside Carlos Benson at his church - so again, please pray - it should be a lot of fun and a good time of worship and fellowship.
Love, Steve.

Thursday 19th October - 2nd Day of SHATTER festival

Hi Guys,

Well...SHATTER festival is just totally AWESOME...dude! :-)

The prophetic and very free worship here is amazing - I am feeling so at home here and I have met up with some old friends and made some new ones too - always cool to do that!

I have been really blessed and encouraged by the teachings - especially by Ray Hughes who taught tonight - he is always a blessing.

David Ruis did the worship last night and this morning, and taught this morning, and Stacey Campbell taught last night. Tonight the worship was led by Keith and Sanna Luker and Kevin Prosch. My friend Leonard Jones from Morning Star has also been involved and he is also always a blessing!

I've been asked to help with a drum workshop/circle tomorrow afternoon, which should be a lot of FUN!

God is moving very powerfully here and I have been blessed to be a part of it, and also to have made friends with a very prophetic and anointed First Nations American.

If you are interested in SHATTER fest, it will be on GOD TV.

Love, Steve

Well....today I visited Graceland....once home to Elvis, and now shrine to the same....
It was interesting, obviously very historical and actually pretty cool!
Then, I went to a Harley Davidson store next to the Graceland estate - VERY cool indeed!

I'm sitting typing this in a Holiday Inn in Little Rock, Arkansas, and tomorrow I'm off to the Shatter Fest conference in Dallas.

Love, Steve.

I had an awesome day today - lunch at a Cajun restaurant (lovely) followed by a trip to the NASA space and rocket centre in Huntsville, followed by an "all you can eat" ribs supper!!!

WOW!

OK...I'm having a holiday! :-)

Mind you, I did have somebody tell me that they saw angels around me, which is always nice to hear!

Love, Steve.

Sunday 14th October - Worship Photos!

2007-10-14T15:02:00.000-07:00

Well, this morning was AWESOME!

I shared on what the Lord is saying prophetically for this church and then I led a drum circle, which was AWESOME!

We had a great time worshipping the Lord - with drums, buckets, pots & pans, staffs, ice boxes and whatever else could make a "joyful noise" unto the Lord. It was incredible! Nobody wanted to stop! It was VERY powerful and such a blessing.

I can't wait to come back here again - people who are definitely not only after my heart, but after the Lord's too! AWESOME!

Love, Steve.

Well...tonight's meeting was a real blast!

God moved powerfully in the worship time and I had a great time on the drums - it was a lot of fun and the prophetic flow was refreshing.

I spoke again on the reality of the spiritual realm and about the rivers of God - the prophetic, miracles, signs and wonders and how to move in the prophetic flow.

I then ministered prophetically and sang over the church.

The sense of the Lord's love and of His power was strong, and there was some physical and emotional healing, including one lady who was healed from severe sinus pain and one guy who was healed from severe head pains.

God is awesome!

Thanks for your prayers - they definitely make a difference.

This church is just like home - they are already family!

Love, Steve.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY HEATHER!!!

OK, after a 6 hour road trip with Scott, here I am in Huntsville, Alabama with my friend Bret Wade. I am ministering in his church tonight, tomorrow and Sunday...

...the ministry tonight went REALLY well. It is a very open and prophetic church, and the people are hungry for more of God. My favourite type of church!

I spoke on the reality of the spiritual realm and spent some time prophesying to the church and also did some prophetic drumming and singing. It was great fun! I'm really looking forward to tonight. It is always such a blessing to be amongst people who are so open to the Holy Spirit and so hungry for more of God.

Theme of the conference:

The presence of God is the place where we need to dwell, and even in the rush of our lives, we need to learn to tune ourselves into His heartbeat and His frequency. From this place of intimacy with Him, we are able to accomplish all that we are called to accomplish, and more than that, we dwell in the beauty of His presence and grow to be more like Him.

Blessings guys!

Steve.

Well...what can I say..?

Thank God for friends! It's so good when you can pick up where you left off with people, even those that you haven't seen for years and you can speak about the deeper things of God in a chilled atmosphere...always very refreshing! :-)

Last night went really well. I had a good time of just sharing with a bunch of friends about what we have been up to over the past 7 years since we last saw them (a brief overview of course!) and shared my heart regarding some of the key things that we've learned during that time. It was so good to be able to share with friends and it was refreshing.

Afterwards I ministered prophetically to some friends and that was also cool. God always has things to say to us, if we just take the time to tune in and listen...

So...I'm off to Huntsville (Alabama) tomorrow morning to start the conference that I am ministering at, so until then..."see y'all"...

Steve.

Hi Guys!

Well...I just thought that it was Tuesday! Call it a senior moment if you like, only I'm not senior! OK...so it's Wednesday! Where I am in the world (Mobile, Alabama) it is 10.00 on 10/10.

All is going well here, and I have been spending time with my friends Danny & Sally, who I haven't seen since 2000! It's great how good friendships continue from where they left off, even after so many years. God is good!

I will be ministering tonight, as well as seeing a lot of other friends who I haven't seen for just as long, and I am off out in 1/2 hour or so for lunch with another friend. I could get used to this! :-)

More later!

Love, Steve.

Hi guys!

I had a great day today with my friend Graham Cooke in Vacaville, California.

Lots of chatting and chilling, watching "Kingdom" at the movies (not for the faint-hearted, but an awesome and powerful movie!), shopping at Borders, looking around the FTI ministry centre and eating pizza and sushi! Awesome! :-)

So...back at the hotel room now, just chilling out and then off to Mobile tomorrow.

God is good and so faithful - are we having fun yet!? Yep!

Love, Steve.

2007-10-07T17:49:00.000-07:00

OK, so I'm here in Vacaville, California, visiting my friend Graham Cooke.

The flights went really well, although there was some bumpy stuff over Canada - a bit of a rollercoaster for a bit! Yeehar! Anyway...I'm here and all's well!

More soon...I'm off to dinner in 1/2 hour with Graham and his fiancee, Theresa.

I have a nice room at the Holiday Inn (good old Holiday Inn!) with a Broadband connection and "I, Robot" playing on the TV, so this is nice!

Love you guys!

Steve.

OK, well I'm off to the USA this morning, and I'm excited about what the Lord is going to do!

Travel is in my blood, and I always enjoy it - the best part for me is seeing how God touches lives and brings His healing and transforming power into people's lives - He is so faithful!

"Speak" to you guys again soon...

Welcome to my blog!

Blessings,
