SweetLand!!

Today I spent the day in SweetLand with some of the most amazing people I have ever had the privilege of knowing. I am looking at the people that God is connecting me with and standing in amazement just wondering what He is doing. I know that the picture I see is huge and not something I can on my own. I can't even imagine what God has up his sleeve. He is so faithful and so amazing. I moved to NYC with a vision in my heart and a word from God; not really knowing what to expect. All I knew was God said go and I said YES!! I'll tell you that this adventure I am is far more than I could imagine and I wouldn't trade it for the world. I love my life!! His blessings and mercies are new everyday.

While in SweetLand today, we had a visitor. We had a precious little girl come out and decorate a cake with us. She decorated cake and then led us in Holy Ghost prayer time. I was so blessed by this girls faith in God. She has the child like faith that I am constantly striving for. She stood in the room and whistled for the angels to come and then said 78 angels are here with us. She just danced around and prayed in her prayer language to God, all the while just laughing while she was hanging out with her Daddy God!! Amazing!!

We are hitting the streets this Saturday to spread the love of Jesus to Manhattan. I'll update again with the stories of how that goes.

Thank you for your love, support and prayers!!

Columbus Circle and Central Park



WOW!!! Today was a day like no other. I went out with the CKE team to go and see signs and wonders in Manhattan. We have been bathing this outreach in prayer all week. Today we all met up at Columbus Circle and prayed believing God that He would show us to the right people. There were about 11 of us in all. We split up into teams of two and hit the mall and Central Park sharing the love and miracles of Jesus. My group actually went out carrying a sign that said Need a Miracle, Free Prayer. The response that we received from this sign was amazing. We were able to pray with 9 different people that approached us wanting a miracle from God. We prayed for skateboard tricks to come easily, 2 people to be healed from cancer, miraculous opportunities to come, job clarity, and we were even able to pray for a monk who asked for a closer relationship with Jesus.

We also had the opportunity to pray with two girls that had just left from having their palms read by a Psychic. Randi and Felicia were walking towards us when two psychics cut them off and read their palms. We decided to pray and wait until they were finished, we then approached the girls and said "We believe in the power of God so much that we are willing to give you $20 to replace what you paid the psychic if you will let us pray for you." They said, "Yes, we are looking for answers." It was absolutely incredible!!

The entire group was able to prayer with over 25 people this afternoon which was just amazing!!

God is so faithful!

I absolutely love my life!! God is so faithful!! If you would have told me 4 months ago that I would be living in NYC doing ministry I would have told you no way. I wouldn't have imagined that God would send me here. It has been an amazing time of challenge, growth, and powerful ministry. In the past month I have been able to connect with some of the most incredible people I have ever met. I have been able to pour life into people, pull the greatness out of people and share Jesus with people that do not know Him. I have also had the privilege of being reconnected with some old friends. I have had the opportunity to encourage them and to guide their focus back to God and His word.

I have some really exciting news!! A friend of mine is publishing a book full of women's testimonies. She is planning on using it as a ministry tool for non-believers as well as believers. I have the honor of being one of the people who testimonies is being published in this book. I am extremely humbled to have the story of God's grace and restoration in life be used in this capacity. I remember one day looking at my life and realizing how much destruction the enemy had brought to me. He tried to destroy me and almost succeeded. The grace of God was so at work in my life and what the devil meant for bad God has been able to turn around and use for Good. I have had the privilege of traveling all over the country and sharing my testimony with tons of people. God has placed my life on solid ground!!

I am so humbled that God is using me as His vessel. It is so amazing how much He loves us. His love is unconditional. We don't have to earn it, win it, or worry about losing it. He loves us just as we are. He took me, someone that was once hopeless, jacked up, and written off; completely turned my life around and is using me to help impact the world. My life and my heart belong to Him. I am sold out and falling more in love with our Creator everyday!

Thank you to all of you for your love, support, and prayers!

In Him,
Dallas
