My Identity

The biggest personal news would be that God is really working on my identity! He's teaching me that my Identity is my Destiny...they are one and the same. He may call me anywhere in the world, but that is just an appointment. I don't have to wait to be in a certain place to be in my destiny! If I am walking in my gifts, and working for the kingdom of God then I am in my destiny. Having said that I know that right now my appointment is right here in Brisbane, but my destiny is not being here, its what I do with myself here, how I relate with others right here, how I relate with God right here, how I serve the Lord right here - right now!
In regards to my identity, I'm starting to realize I'm a man of faith. A man God sees as faithful and so He shows His faithfulness to me! When I ask something of God He is very prone to give that to me, because in our relationship He asks things of me and I give them. I haven't been as disciplined in this as usual lately, but I am stepping back into that and again seeing God move in new faithbuilding ways...having said that...
Gods provision - I was praying about buying a mobile phone (what they call "cell phones" down here) and I felt like I wasn't supposed to because it wouldn't be being a good steward of my finances, simply because of the lack of finances at this present moment with my outreach coming up. But the reality is that in my ministry, "Beach 2 Bush", we are constantly on the road and all over the place and the staff are constantly all over the place in many different remote places. I lead many weeks, meaning I organize the speakers, arrange accomodations in churches or campgrounds...set up ministry..etc....and I do NEED a mobile phone at times. So I prayed that God would provide one in this case if He saw fit...I didn't mention this to ANYONE. It took two weeks then a guy on the base said to me "God told me to give away my mobile phone, I prayed about who to give it to and He said you, so here ya go" and I now have a mobile phone!

God provided...
My outreach is $1900 final budget total. I got $500 of that was brought in last week and the school was praying for $500 exactly to come in for my fees last week! God answered prayer through my insanely loving mother, who worked 40 hours overtime or something so I could do Gods work down here. I have 10 days to get $1400, and I'm not worried in the least, God is speaking to people left right and centre and I love my Lord...even when people aren't who He wants to use He does even greater miracles!
The Solomon Islands outreach team now has their Itinerary and knows what our outreach looks like, so check out godinsolomons.blogspot.com to see how the power of God is going to move in the solomon islands in this next season!

Those are some of Adams wacky adventures at this point! Much Love

Solomons and Stuff

Solomon Islands team now has a blog for when we are all on the road, as well as for when we actually get there! That blog can be found at godinsolomons.blogspot.com
I heard back from the Solomon Islands YWAM base the other day, it is a very small base. It turns out they have a team going up to Choiseul the same time as us. Whether we will connect with them or not is undetermined as of yet. But its an interesting opportunity. I think they want us to connect with them. However, we have a pastor setting up our outreach from Vanuatu, and this team will probably set up their own. So, its an interesting scenario that will take some prayer to decide!
I'm very excited for our trip though. God is really moving around base and we know our prayers are soaking the land and the people, getting the area ready for our arrival. God is truly going before us! Please pray if you feel inclined, its a very malaria prone area, worst in the world. There have only been a couple teams who have gone where NOONE got malaria, and they covered the land and team in prayer. I have complete faith that our prayers will combat malaria. Our God is far bigger than anything we will encounter on this earth! And having said that I really am not worried and am very faithful in Gods character. I know Gods favour is upon us. Its great being in Gods will, there is no safer place.
Thanks for your prayers and support. I do have another prayer need as well, which is finances for my plane ticket. You are all so supportive and I am so grateful. My monthly bill is always paid to the dollar. I'm just asking for prayers that God will provide the 1350 that my plane ticket will likely cost for the Solomons. On the base the team I lead pays for my ground fees and food, but the plane ticket is still my own cost! So that is my issue now. But God is a provider, and I think I'm going to be surprised about where it comes from. Even people around Brisbane that I've never met!!

Thanks so much, God Bless you all.
