A warm welcome to Irving, joining us today.

We listened to Kim Clement prophecy about how Four Regions of the country will be cleansed. After the cleansing, there will be a mighty rushing wind that will restore this nation.

One of the songs from today said:

I want to love what you love
I want to hate what you hate

Irving mentioned Hebrews 1:9 and how we can conquer our sin by asking the Lord to give us a hatred for that sin.

Irving is gifted in ministry in the streets, he has a gift to minister in an urban environment. He and his wife, Deborah, have been going wherever the Lord leads them. We have also been talking about the shaking that has been happening, and the preparation the Lord wants is for us to be ready and to be discerning. We will come in contact with so many lost and hurting people, so we are looking forward to what Irving will be sharing tonight.

In 2004, Irving was on a mission trip to Uganda with some people from Salem, MA to join John Melindi, who had started the video National Transformation - what God is doing in Uganda. The trip was for 10 days. Three thousand intercessors were storming the gates, they are warriors, and the atmosphere was spiritually charged and it was easy to "jump into the river." The Lord gave Irving two passages: Jer 1:12 and Ezekiel 37. That night the speaker spoke on Ezekiel 37! This is what happens when people pray. We had a march for Jesus in the capital of Kampala. Uganda is a nation of 70% Christians. They have the word of God in them. Whenever you meet them, they take a stand for the Lord. So there were 5,000 people in a March for Jesus, and as they marched they decided to pause and pray for an apartment complex. At the completion of the march, 2,000 more had joined. At the destination, in a park, Irving was thinking that an altar call should be made. The gospel should be presented. He asked an organizer to preach the gospel. They insisted that Irving make the altar call for salvation. He was hesitant, but got up on the back of a flat bed pickup truck. The Ugandans didn't do things halfway. They had microphones and amplifiers and speakers. Irving felt that God wanted a simple presentation of the gospel and not a long-winded sermon. So he took that microphone and said, "Clap your hands all you people, shout unto God with a voice of triumph. Whosoever will, come up now and receive Jesus as your Saviour." (Psalm 47:1)At that moment, then and there, as people came up, there was a catalytic movement in me, that has kept going on since that day. If God says to cross the street to witness to someone, that is your mission.

Between fifteen-hundred and two thousand people were lead to the Lord in the year 2004. There are more than 20,000 Cambodians in Lowell MA. People were getting saved, hour after hour. They were surprised that I had been to Cambodia. Jesus said to the disciples, come apart for a while (Mark 6:31). One day, I was walking down an alley and there was this Cambodian gang, even though I was worried, they didn't even harrass me! I asked them if they saw the movie, The Passion, some said they did. I then asked them what was that about? I asked them if you died today would you go to heaven? They said that they would go to hell. I told them I was a travel agent for God and I was going to give them a chance to change their destination. I gave them 3 verses from Romans, "All have sinned..." "And whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be..." and they finished..."saved." If you can be saved, you can be lost. I prayed, "Dear Lord Jesus, come into my heart" I heard a choir of voices behind me. Ten out of 13 got saved right there. The high school got out, and a girl, asked about Mother Mary, and the Immaculate Conception. Three out of four girls were saved. On that day, 71 people came to know the Lord...because we were praying. Spring up oh (LO)WELL! (Numbers 21:17)

Andy Park has come, as well as Jason Upton...and others. God is taking the city of Lowell. Just recently, 52 people, have come to the Lord, in the past 2 and 1/2 weeks. If you visit the Liberty Bell in Philadelphia, there is a verse from the Bible on the Bell. (Leviticus 25:5,10,11)

Verse eleven says:

The fiftieth year shall be a jubilee for you; do not sow and do not reap what grows of itself or harvest the untended vines.

I just turned 50, and it is my Jubilee.

2 Kings 7

How is this happening, why are people coming to the Lord? The harvest is ripe. That is why!

God has given me a discernment of people who want to argue, rather than receive the gospel. I can discern them and they are not ready. So why waste your time? In that case, you can spend your time witnessing to others.

Up by the courthouse, that is a good place for people to get saved. I don't exploit that, though. I met a Brazilian who just got out of jail. He had a dream about that area, and said that he saw Jesus in the dream. Everyone left and went up to heaven, except the Brazilian. He cried to Jesus, in his dream and said, "don't leave me here!!!" I said to him, Eduardo, God heard you cry and that is why I am here today. We used to pray for divine appointments. Lets start again.

Psalm 92:12 March 17. The Boston Globe. Front page. Photograph of the Lebanese protesting carrying their flags. The Lebanese have the cedar of Lebanon on their flag. We pray and then go into Worcestor. So I was walking down the sidewalk, but no one would talk to me. I felt led to go to the mall. I went and saw this man selling watches. I realized I had to redeem the time for the days are evil (Ephesians 5:16). The pinnacle will be 2006. There have been many prophecies about this. So I head in to the mall, and I see all the watches. I noticed the man selling watches has an accent. What do you know? He is Lebanese. He prays with me. This is prophetic evangelism. This is how God arranges our days for us.

People questioned me, asking, are the people really getting saved? I asked myself the same question. I then went to East Hampton. I met a woman who was on something. Perhpas methadone or something else. I asked myself if I forced her to say the prayer. But we should never even judge a prayer. Many days later I moved to East Hampton and met a few young girls. One of them said her mother likes to talk about God like I do. After wondering if it was too late, I decided to go to their house, and it was the same woman. Her husband was also born-again and they were both walking around East Hampton and handing out tracts.
1 Corinthians 15:58 Our labor is not in vain!

Two months later, I saw the same woman and her husband at a road rotary in Westfield handing out tracts with their church!

Over and over God has confirmed the supernatural conversions.

When people speak, I hear the prophetic phonetic. What they say has a different meaning to me. I pulled into a parking spot and a few places over a man was waving to me. He was saying that there was one hour left on his parking meter. He wanted me to come over and take his parking space. To me, God was saying that his time was running out. He accepted Christ that day!

Thorsday. Means Thursday in Norway. Named after the god, Thor.

We went on a mission trip to Scandinavia. Just a few of us, yet so much more happened on that trip than we anticipated. Our return flight number was 1492 (the year Columbus discovered the New World). We stayed in a hotel that looked like Noah's Ark. In Sweden, the airport had animals on the walls, murals that looked liked Noah's ark, animals that had never been seen before in Scandanavia. The airline personnel asked if we were going to "New Ark"? And we were going to Newark.

2 Kings 7:3 Famine. Leprous men sitting until they die. Mat 4:19. God said to the whole group. I will make you fishers of men. Acts 26:16 I will make thee a minister. He wasn't a minister before that moment. He can make me a fisherman. Let that be the cry of my heart. Verse 7. This is a day of good news and we remain silent. Are we part of the kings household?

International House of Pancakes, springfield. Someone gave me $50 to go to Bob's store to get some chlothes and sneakers. It was a gift certificate and it was going to expire soon. I drove around the highways of Springfield. I couldn't find Bob's. I heard a voice saying "go to IHOP." I went there and at the front door, the waitress asked if I was smoking or non-smoking. I said non-smoking. She took me to the smoking area. There was no one there, she expained. But I knew that the moment I would start eating someone would come in and start smoking. I explained this to her. Finally she agreed and brought me to the non-smoking area. I sensed something was bothering her, so I asked her. Her daughter was a nurse and had cancer, and had lost weight--forty pounds. That morning, the Lord told me to put a vial of oil in my pocket, and I did. Tears came to her eyes as she told me that she had a vision of someone annointing her daughter. I asked if I could come to visit her daughter and I followed the woman home. Her daughter took 20 minutes to get ready. The first miracle. I led her to the Lord. I asked her if she was going to heaven. She said she was Catholic and was a good person. So did Jesus waste his time getting up on that cross and dying for us? So I began to pray for healing. There was gloom in that house. No annointing. But do not go by that. As I left I was apologizing because the prayer time was not fruitful. I called a few days later, after I prayed she had to go to the hospital. I felt bad. But the doctors checked her colon and found no trace of cancer in her body! I went to see the daughter in the hospital and she was in the bed praying and praising God. This is healing evangelism.

Jer 16:16

Psalm 119:111
This is why I am giving you these testimonies. They are glorious. He set them up. He knocked them down. I rejoice in what God has done--to this day. Anyone can do this.

There is a short training. Five minutes. Low pressure tactics. If you are shy, you don't have to say anything. During that time, when God gives you something, I will yield right away. Here I am send me Lord. 2 Cor 12:9
It is not for everyone. Pray and see if God is leading you.

1 Cor 4:20
