DTS Update

This week was definitely a breakthrough week on DTS. Monday seems like 6 months ago, all though it was only 6 days ago, and what has happened between then and now is far too much too put into words. We saw God move in incredible power this week, and the change we've observed in our students is like day and night, it's hard to believe that we are only 5 weeks into it, and have another 4 months to go. I think what I realised this week is how valuable the context and framework of a YWAM discipleship training school is, and I've realised that a lot of what God is doing in the students lives is actually taking place outside of the classroom and House of Prayer, it's around the dinner table, on the weekends, hanging out together at night etc....awesome!

On Monday and Tuesday we talked about what it means to be baptised in the Spirit and also the meaning of water baptism. We then loaded up the vans and went up to a waterfall to baptise 7 students. It was an awesome time, and we were kissed with a double rainbow later that afternoon.

From Wednesday to Friday we had Frank Naea, who used to be president of Youth with a Mission, come and speak on the Father Heart of God. We had an amazing time with him, it was so rich, refreshing, and deep. On Friday the week culminated with an incredible time of ministry, AMAZING! I don't think there was one dry eye in the room for about 3 hours, as we all drank deeply from the love of the Father.

Looking forward to this week, Hank Overeem is coming to speak. Should be good.
