Smack

Last night was probably the most meaninful prayer and worship experience I've had since my move to Kansas City - Actually, probably in my entire life.

Overwhelmed with homework piling up, and many other situations going on in my life right now, I walked back into the prayer room last night to Corey Asbury's set. It was pretty on fire right away, so I was worshipping with what oil in my lamp I had.

Tired eventually, and just as I was about to sit down and pull out my laptop to attempt to get some work done, I hear a ton of cracking up going on behind me. I turn around to see a huge mass of people dancing, in-sync to the music. The prayer room went in an uproar of dancing and singing and prophetic worshipping. I felt a tug to go back and join, and though I felt like it would be idiotic and I'd look like a complete retard doing it, I went anyway. I stumbled the first few times, trying to get in sync with everyone else, but I eventually caught on, and started having a blast.

The prophetic worship went on for who knows how long, and eventually, Corey started up the chorus, "No more shackles, no more chains, no more bondage I am FREE...." (with Matt Gillman singing "Where the spirit of the Lord is THERE IS FREEDOM"). Right about here is when I just absolutely broke LOOSE. God revealed a prophetic dancing and singing spirit to me, and I just broke free and worshipped Him, not caring about anyone around me (especially because almost the whole prayer room was feeling the same way!). God broke many chains and shackles last night, and I've never felt freer to worship Him! I'm pretty sure that was the biggest workout I've had in my entire life too (sorry, Garry ;).

The set ended in a huge uproar of laughter and dancing and jumping and high praises and shouts to God, I thought I was gonna lose my voice! Afterwards, I still hadn't gotten enough, so I went to a friends house and we broke loose in more worship and dancing and prophecy. Had some fun there too, and got to talking to one of my friends about what I'd been struggling with, and how God just totally set me free. He prayed with me and prophecied over me, and helped me to grow in this even more, and gave me some good ideas for meditating on the Word.

It was an absolutely fantastic finisher to a GBF, and the huge wall that I've smacked into recently was completely crumbled down last night. I'm free to worship Jesus, and if you can hear anyone in pain, it's probably Satan, since all the bricks from that big nasty wall just came hurtling at him. ;)

Peace and Love,
