Church in California Experiences Dynamic Growth Through Communion With God – Richard Biddle My wife and I became aware of the Communion with God series during my time of recovery from pastoral burnout in the early 90’s. It was at this time we read all the material and began journaling. Several years went by and we began to hear the Lord in almost all areas of our life and especially our marriage. Then, in 1998, a pastor friend asked if we would consider pastoring again and we said yes, the Lord had already told us which church and what location. Amazingly enough, it was the very church where we are pastoring now. When we came here, there was a small group of 25 people, mostly of the senior vintage. We began teaching what we had learned in the Communion with God series and the response was really overwhelming. We have baptized almost every month since our beginnings. We are now running on an average Sunday 125 or more. We have elders and deacons helping us in all areas of ministry. We have had people healed of cancer, tumors, and all sorts of ailments. The Spirit moves, filling us with His love. Home Group in Canada Explodes with Growth When Communion With God Is Taught – Helen Toews We invited 12 people and recommended that they look up the course on the Net and pray about coming. Via ‘tell-a-friend’, 28 showed up. Three couldn’t make it because of out-of-town commitments so they will be watching the video before the next session to catch up. I will do this with anyone who has a legitimate problem and will miss the study group evening but strongly recommend they commit to the 12 weeks as a group.
Another cyberhug from Winnipeg... Thank You for Voting and Praying! A great victory for righteousness was achieved in the United States in the November 5th election. Thank you for your part in this. Now let’s pray daily for our national leaders, that godliness might prevail. Heart Wounds Healed – Testimony Posted Karen M. Leininger’s final paper for the course “REN105 The Father Heart of God” is entitled “The Home Coming” and is a wonderful testimony of how interaction with Jesus, the Father, and the Holy Spirit has brought great healing to the wounds of her heart. You may read this inspirational testimony at cwgministries.org/TheHomeComing.htm. “Give up! You’re Surrounded!” Dream Interpretation – Steve Bydeley Dream: I was alone in a foreign land. As I looked up, I saw soldiers approaching me from every side. They held their rifles ready, and attention was focused on getting me. Suddenly, out of nowhere, people started to walk in and surround me. There were many and they kept coming as they formed a tight circle around me several layers deep. They stood with their backs to me as they faced and stared down the approaching soldiers. Somehow, I knew their unspoken message to those soldiers was that they should reconsider their mission. Background: When I awoke from that dream my only thought was, “Wow, that was interesting; I wonder what it was about.” Interpretation: That evening, Dianne and I were speaking on dreams to a church in Sydney, Australia. When finished, as we were mingling and talking with the attendees, a lady approached asking to speak to me. She shared that while I was speaking she saw, in the spirit, a large demon reaching for my throat, trying to stop me. She then asked if she could pray for me. As she prayed, the Lord brought back to my attention the details of this dream and I realized I was experiencing the interpretation. God, my Father, would surround me with those who would act to intercede on my behalf when there was a need. I was deeply impressed realizing that He would do that for me! His eyes “move to and fro throughout the earth that He may strongly support those whose heart is completely His” (II Chron. 16:9). Influence in My Life: This dream continues to be an encouragement to me whatever I face. It makes me aware of people He has in place ready to surround me with prayer. It gives me courage and peace in the face of whatever assignment He gives me. Could I have gotten along without that dream? Very likely — but why would I want to? This is my Father’s personal touch into my life, like His hand on my shoulder wherever I go. Steve and Dianne Bydeley are authors of the book Dream Dreams, as well as a companion workbook, teacher’s manual and seminar audiotapes. They offer a 12-week Internet Dream Interpretation Mentoring course wherein you are personally and confidentially coached through your dreams. The Lord uses dreams to improve marriages, parenting skills, workplace relationships, friendships, give encouragement, bring hope and more. Steve and Dianne lead seminars and workshops, bringing people into healing and a more intimate relationship with God and others. Credits for the 12-week Internet Dream Interpretation Mentoring practicum are available through CLU.
