God Speaks To Me About The Mission Field!!!

I couldn't stop thinking about writing about this Word from the Lord all day at work!  


Through Blogs, Videos, and Posts, I try to stay in contact with everyone, Keeping a journal of my Journey w/ the Holy Spirit, since Living for JESUS!!

My last entry was about some of the things I was going through since entering back into the work force here in the States, and, well you will have to read it, to find out!  :)

But SINCE my last blog, I have continued to deal with MANY things to get where I feel the LORD is leading me, and one of the main things that come to my mind is what my mentor told me, " IF You Don't Struggle In Your Walk From Time to Time, Your Probably NOT IN IT!!!"

Yesterday ( Sunday ) I attended Family Worship Center of Red Lion ( Family Worships Facebook Page ).  I feel like the LORD has done just about everything but smack me to get my attention, telling me this is where I am to be serving for the time being.

So, I am setting out to get more Involved, and helping my brother Pastor Robert Costello with the Support of Scott Kemper, and so far, a few others, to get a Mens Discipleship rollin.  Ya'll might know it as the 'Freedom House'...Where Men/Women shackled by things of all sorts can enter a God centered environment, and selfishly seek Jesus, learning how to live for Jesus, allowing time to learn things like 2 Corinthians 5:17, and John 10:10.  Seeing the Lies of the Enemy, and seeing there callings in life put there by God.

So there I was, talking with a man that has volunteered to be a Counseler for the House(A Great Gift by the way), In the middle of our conversation, a friend(Will Just Call Her JILL For Now) Came up out of nowhere and handed me a piece of paper, leaned over and quietly said that she believed this was a Word from the LORD for ME!! Given to her during Worship.  Immediately I put it in my Bible and thanked JILL, telling her, "LORD knows I could use one!" (smiling)

I continued my conversation with this gentlemen even though I was EXTREMELY EXCITED to see what this paper said!!  After talking and hugging a few more people, and then calling a few guys over to agree w/ me in prayer, I Finally made it out to the car to read my WORD from the LORD:

2/27/11

Daniel-

            Your namesake was one of my greatest prophets and favored children.  He was taken to a foreign land and remained steadfast and pure and rose to a position of leadership.  I did not need to keep you in a foreign land as your present land is foreign to my principles.  It will be difficult to remain pure and steadfast within this land but with prayer and fasting, you will remain within my presence and righteousness.  Do not fear for I am placing a plan within your heart and I will provide the materials to implement those plans.  What I have shown you at this moment is only the beginning of a God-sized dream.  I will be surrounding you with people who will guide you, mentor you and come along side of you to prepare you to fulfill this vision/plan I have placed within you.  I will send others to be your helpers and those who you will instruct and raise up as leaders.  Accept the guidance for you will stand on their shoulders.  Accept the helpers, no matter what they look like, for I am sending them.  Accept those who I send to you for they are broken as you once were, they are crushed and hurt and will need those things I have planted within you, to encourage and heal them.  Through you I will make them whole so that they can take on their plan I have created them for.  They will stand upon your shoulders as you are standing upon others.  Be encouraged and do not fear.  Freedom House will only be the beginning even before you begin, know that you will pass it on for more. 

Now I can't stop reading it, and doing everything I can to make sure I receive it!  This Word has so much subliminal meaning to me.  Even though its very personal to me,  I think its beneficial and important to share!!

I Learned one thing VERY EARLY IN MY TRAINING FOR MY CALLING; YOUR MISSION FIELD IS WHERE YOU ARE SERVING!!!  I'm here to tell you, it don't begin when you land in a 3rd World Country, or Stop when you clock in at a Job, SOULS NEED SAVING 24/7!!!

AN UPDATE FROM ME, DANIEL BARNARD: Will You Pray With Me?

Its been awhile since I blogged, and for this I must apologize to all my Loved Ones who have supported w/ Prayers and Financially, Rest assured that Your Prayers are Felt, and your Support is doing great things.

As most of ya'll know, Departure back overseas was set for another date, so I could further my education, and Training!   So I entered back into the work force, God has shown me many things! AND Honestly, It was like getting comfortable in my skin TWICE!!  


What do I mean by this??

Keep in mind that I am working my first job since returning to the States, only When I returned, I returned as a completely Different person.

So my mentality was on a whole different level, SAME BODY DIFFERENT DANIEL!!

 I have entered into a job where the atmosphere Clearly shows why we as Christians are to be the LIGHT!!  And why Jesus said we will be sent out like Sheep amongst Wolves!!


HOW COULD I BE SO NAIVE?? I really didn't think to prepare for some of the things that are coming my way for Loving Jesus!?!

As I write this, my Heart aches for many things that are currently goin' on, and I look for ways, asking God for insight, wisdom, and self-control.
~One thing God told me was, I am to get Literature and invite these specific individuals to Freedom Valley's Harvest Cry Event, and a Bible Study that I am to hold! ~

BUT it's an Honor to state the things Jesus has done in me and around me, and I know NOTHING comes close to comparing what Jesus went through.

Don't get me wrong, The Lord has surrounded me with a few who have back-sliden, and now after a week has committed to return to Church! PRAISE GOD! Jesus has used me to make Him Topic of conversation almost DAILY, allowing some men to talk about GOD boldly, being able to admit roles in the Church they have had in the past.  The Lord has also gave me a Prayer List....

To progress in my calling, It feels like I had to go back and start where I was in 2008 when I first started being SERIOUSLY DISCIPLED.  I am facing same challenges as I was before entering our Discipleship Program, only with a new heart, mind, and soul.

I WANNA KNOW, HOW CAN I PRAY FOR YOU?? ~ dbarnard13@gmail.com
