Dennis's Blog

Dear friends and family,
Its Tuesday morning, and I am catching up on writing a bit on what happened over the past week, some one is going to have a car for me to use while I am here for transportation. So I am waiting for that this morning, as soon as i get that I will be picking up a few youth leaders and driving into a couple areas and praying for a dying man, a blind man, and we will be visiting a deaf school I think. Not sure.
Last Thursday morning I went to to a pastors meeting in the morning and made connections, then I went to one of the youth leaders houses and about 10-12 of the youth met there, and we prayed and worshiped for a while I taught basic principles from the bible, then we went and spent the rest of the day on the streets. Btw, this was there very first time on the streets. It was amazing I simply taught them what Jesus did, and told them to do like wise, and I told them as we walk to pray for everyone and anyone they met and preach the gospel. lol, and yes, EVERY person we met as we were walking down the street they went up to and started loving, prophesying to and praying for. Often they would take 3-4 people and just block the path, and people would ask "what do you want"? they would say, "Oh we just want to talk to you for a little bit". and then start to minister to them. It was beautiful. What takes weeks to get most Americans to get, they got in 10 minutes, simply because of radical obedience without thinking twice about it.
We seen a hospital, " a pretty modern hospital" and I took two of the girls to see what we could find, and left a few others in the parking lot to pray for people. As we walked in we ran into a lady I had met before who had a sick girl in the Hospital, we acted like we knew what we were doing, and told her we were there to pray for her girl. She said thank you, and asked us to follow her. we went into the children section of the hospital and started praying for the girl. I also prayed for the girls grandma and as I was praying tears were streaming down here cheeks, as she encountered Jesus. when I looked up the girls weren't with me anymore, they were already praying for anyone they could find. See they don't have any bad mindsets that tell them they might get shut down for praying for people in a hospital. We left that section of the hospital and went to pray for some nurses who were on a "smoke break", the one nurse was in intense pain and was healed from muscle spasms.
As we went back in the hall one of the girls was talking to a doctor, he asked what she was doing, she quickly announced,"oh we are here to heal all the sick people", lol, like I said, their first time. It was great, we found out he owned part of the hospital, and "Unatti" straight up asked him, " are you saved"? " I was thinking more of a subtle approach and maybe we could keep praying for people." But God is a God of grace, He said no, and he didn't want to be saved then, but he said if you are here to pray for people you should go pray for a girl who has a few days left to live and then he walked off. we took this as an opportunity and went to the front desk and told them we were here to pray for a girl with 5 days left to live. They sent us to the ER, we buzzed the buzzer, and they asked what we needed, I said the owner of the Hospital said there was a girl with a few days left to live and we were supposed to pray for her. They let us in right away, and we got to pray for the girl and minister to the parents of the girl. So I gave them my contact info, so hopefully they will let me know. as we finished this I heard yelling in the hallway so I went out there, and two of the guys from outside were looking for us, saying a miracle had happened!! lol all the doctors and nurses were sticking their heads out and trying to figure out what happened. So I took everyone out side to talk, they said someone who was crippled and had pain on his side was healed and walking with out his crutch. which was their very first miracle:) it was good, we spent the rest of the day praying for people, and met one man we prayed for who asked us to go pray for an orphanage. We went to an evening service at the church I am helping out at, and the next morning the youth went and visited the orphanage.
Friday night the youth had a youth service, but I stayed home and rested up a bit. Saturday morning we met early in the morning, like 8am early, and went to a pre rally for a crusade that is happening. They called is a " Jesus celebration March". But we went to turn it into a "Jesus Healing March". There were probably at least 3-400 people with flags, palm branches walking down the streets and NOT ONE OF THEM, was healing the sick or reaching out, except for our kids. There was like all these religious people, and then there was our screaming, singing bunch of youth. lol. and they were praying for everything that moved. Don't get me wrong there were other awesome people there and I am sure they had the best of intentions, but they were just getting nothing done. I think its quite ridiculous how people will host these huge christian events, do prophetic acts, and supposedly change atmospheres, and do things in the heavenlies. Listen Jesus already shook thing in the heavenlies, he already did thee biggest prophetic act, if you think you can do a better Job than he did, then feel free to shake and bake and waste your time doing NOTHING.
I may seem march with this, but its truth, its an excuse to be powerless, Unatti and I stepped out of the "parade" to pray for a man who was really hobbling along. He said he was in a car crash years ago and never recovered, his leg was at least 2-3 inches shorter than the other, I prayed and his leg grew out instantly, and he was healed. a small crowd grew really quick, because everyone knew him, and they kept asking him what happened, we prayed for a few more people, and realized that the "parade" was long Gone. so we ran to catch up. we found them gathered on a grassy area by the road, blowing shofars and all kinds of ridiculous stuff. so we kept praying for people a bit. At the end they all gathered in a big bunch and one man was ending it. So I went up next to him and said I had something to say, I said listen, as you walk you have to reah out and pray for people and demonstrate Jesus, and I shared the testimony, it was like speaking to a wall. Why??? because what I said required them to do something, required responsibility. And its easier to stand around and pray for what Jesus already did, than it is to actually go and enforce what he already did, and DO WHAT JESUS SAID TO DO. period.
That night we loaded up the young leaders "Flying God Squad" as they're called here. lol. and went to BoBoyi, a rural area. For the tent meeting that night, and it was an amazing meeting it was packed out with young people in there. And the young people took turns sharing for a bit, than chad Hoffman and I taught and stirred up passion and resolve, as these young people are starting to rise up to disciple their nation.
Before the meeting started I was asked to go visit a dying woman in one of the small hut/houses. She was the sweetest old grandma, but she was all crippled up and laying on the floor with a blanket, because she had a stroke, and hadn't walked in years. We had about 20 Africans inside and outside singing and praying believing that she would walk. I started praying for her, and then i pulled her to her feet and commanded her to walk. Nothing happened that we could see, I spent the next half hour praying for her, And even though I have conditioned myself to not doubt but to walk in the spirit. I was in tears after leaving there. Next there was a pastor who had an accident as kid, and it left him with one leg a good 4-5 inches shorter than the other one. He let me pray and I commanded it to grow out, and I had the youth pray as well, because they had never NOT seen a leg grow out. And his leg refused to grow. I have seen a lot of people healed since I have been here, but I am being transparent with a few things that I did not see bow. I took a walk after this as the meeting was going on, and poured out my heart to God, Because I know its Gods will to heal them, there is nothing lacking on his end. And I must walk in a place of a renewed mind so that I walk just like Jesus on the earth. So I am fasting this week and praying, not that God would do something, I know better than that. But that I would kill the flesh and renew my mind to walk in what I am appointed to walk in. you know. see If you want more of a passion to walk like Jesus on the earth, than hang out with people who are dying. It will happen really quick.
The meeting was amazing, young people radically dedicating every second of their lives to doing what Jesus said to do and radically devoting their lives to serving God forever.
I met yesterday with some of the youth, in two weeks we have a 2,000 seater tent that we have on a Sunday completely just for the youth. and we are heading that up. The young people here have a dream of filling the local sports stadium, which is really big. I told them that this is the first step, if they want to do that. One of my goals is to help these young people. They have given every second of their lives to doing the kingdom of heaven. But most of them have no money period. And we are planning on establishing youth led churches throughout the region because young people here are poor and walk to all meetings, and they will walk miles just to go to one meetings, but if we can establish leaders and churches in all the regions then these leaders I am pouring into can go from region to region throughout the week, and keep pouring onto people. So My one of my goals by the time I leave is to help them establish a strong internet connection in one central location, build a website, you tube channel, and have them have a donation button. So that they can get what God is doing here on the web for the world to see, and then people can sow into what God is doing here. Because if they get a few "Ran" they use it for cellphone airtime so they can connect and spread the kingdom. But they need a car, or any van type vehicle, and finances to buy gas and such. I could talk about these young people a lot, I keep giving them everything that I have lol, because when you hang out with them and see their passion and zeal, you just want to give them every thing you have, ya know. Its really easy to give when you are over here. Because you don't care about anything else but seeing peoples lives transformed.
I was just invited to minister at a church about 300km outside of Johannesburg this weekend so I believe I will be flying up there for the weekend. So that should be exciting. But in the mean time, I want to say thank you to a couple of you that supported me financially to come over here!!! for real thank you, there is a revolution rising up, and youth leaders being trained that will shake the planet:) I don't remember everything so I only write some of what happens. but be blessed guys, never stop, never stop.

Much luv!!
Dennis

Btw, if anybody wants to give to the youth leaders I am discipling, you can give via the donation button and make a note " to the Godsqad" it will go straight to them. They are all awesome, but there are 3 main leaders, and the money will go to them to use just for ministry.

Dear freinds and family,
I cant beleive it is wednesday night allready, time goes so fast. It was an amazing night last night, as there was a thunder storm and it was so amazing to sleep in my little randavol and listen to the rain and thunder. Today I picked up about 10 young people that are passionate about Jesus, and took them to a rural community where we have a tent set up, and are holding services for those who have very little. I am so in love with the people here, allready I am developing relaitionships for the rest of my life. I just got back from spending the evening in a rural area ministering, i'll finish talking about that later. You will find in my blogs that I share both the success and "failures", I share testimonies, and I share things that I do not see happen, because we are learning, and I strive to walk transperently and with integrity.
See I sit down with young people over here we look at the bible if its says to do it, they simply beleive, they do not ask questions, rationalize, or make excuses. they will worship and pray all night of you dont drive them out of the buildings. They are people after my own heart. I will give my life to pour into anyone who truly wants to give their life for the kingdom of God, here they all do. See, when witch doctors are turning themselves into hippo's, cheetas, birds, when they curse people and they die. Where devils are so blatant, they do not question the supernatural, but they are desperately hungry for the most powerfull thing on earth, LOVE.
Last saturday we met with local pastors and that was good, then we got the phone call from one of the ladies in the church that her 23 year old son had died over night, and they wanted someone to come pray for him to be raised from the dead, and to minister to the family, and bring the kingdom of heaven to the family. Chad hoffman and I flew over to capetown on sunday to meet with the family and pray. I read in the word of God where people come to Jesus and ask him to raise their sick child, and he says yes, he raised lazuros, Elijah raised the widows son, and so on. I beleive for me to say no to the mom would have been so wrong. And plus I really beleived that he would wake up and preach the gospel. Some people gave me a a bit of a hard time for that. But it didnt affect me, i was obedient to the word, and what I knew to be true. and through it we were able to minister to so many people, in the airport a man who had a bad knee since 5th grade was instantly healed while we were waiting for the plane. and we ministered to a hand full other people over the time we were in capetown. its is a very beautiful place, we got to see "south african penguins". and make new freinds. I am till in contact with the family of the boy, and if i can be honest, i fully expect my phone to ring. and them telling me he is awake. why?, because I live in faith all the time. I have no time not to be living in faith, if I dont people die. period. sympathy keeps more people dead than anything else. sympathy kills people, compassion saved them.
Yesterday morning we met with some people and prayed, and I dont remember what happened the rest of the day, honestly, my mind is blank. huh, I know we did stuff, but I cant remeber if it was ministry, or what. hhmm, I am so busy everything runs together:). This morning I was able to catch up a bit on emails, and practical stuff, btw, " I get up every morning at 6:30!! and go to bed at well, ya, like right now, midnight. but oh well, my body feels great.
This evening we picked up a bunch of radical youth, and oh!, before that we went to the hospital and prayed for a little girl, and it was a pretty nice hospital, looked just like the american ones, but for the first time, I prayed for everyone I could get my hands on:) and didnt get rejected or stopped. lol. it was awesome. There is a handfull of youth here I am pouring into that are so gripped with a passion and hunger for God it is amazing, like when I dropped them off at their houses they were planninjg to fast all day tomorrow and get together and pray and heal people and get ready for the evening service. We went to a rural area to where there is a tent set up for ministry. on the way we stopped at a ladies house that needed prayer, she was in a wheelchair, chad ministered to her a while, and she was able to stand and the pain left her body, and then we ministered to the rest of the family. after whci we went to another house, and while the most of them went inside to pray a few of us stayed outside and were ministering to some young people. they wanted nothing to do with us, and one young man had a hurt knee, but wouldnt let me get close. So I told him to be quite and hols still, I pointed at his knee and said "BE Healed". he was shoked as he was instantly healed. I turned to pray for another young man, and he frekead out and said NO, he had "sangoma" wristbands on, the word for "witch doctor". and he eveidently wasnt a Jesus worshipper. i asked his if he was scared of me, he said yes. I said ok, stand therem I will show you real power. he ws about ten feet from me, I told him God was about to touch him, and pinted at him, the presence of God came on him, and he ran down the road with his hands on his head. But he came back, and said he wanted to get saved, just not yet, I ministered to him for a while, and in the meantime a few of the youth were ministering to the other young guys. I was amazed they have very little experience on the streets and they looked as if they had been doing it their whole life!! anyways we ended up loading a couple of the guys of the street into the car and taking them with us to the tent meeting.
at the tent meeting the one guy took chad, a few of the kids and I into the back to a house, an older lady had a crippled hand with arthuritus and really bad back pain and she had not had a bowel movement in a long long time!!:( which was interesting, I had a young girl pray for her, and her hand was healed, then she said she needed a cain to walk, I said Not anymore! and told the girl to grab her hands and start her walking, she was healed as she walked, she then walked by herself to the restroom and went to the bathroom for the first tine in a while. which is an awesome miracle btw:).
I preached and chad preached a bit, I started with healing the sick, and then spoke for a bit. there were quite a few people healed, and a whole bunch of young men there that Got encountered, dedicated their lives to God. One lady had no eyeball, actually two people I prayed for today had no eyeball, I seen nothing happen, but I still prayed because a while back in the same tent meeting a guy was prayed for and he grew a new eyeball right there in fron of everyone:) so I really wnat to see that, as I never have. The tents btw, are in one community at a time for 2 weeks, then they move, and they rotate through 4 areas. It is SO humbling to work with the pastor who heads that up, he does services at least 5 nights a week, and he has a family, he is at least 55+ years old. and the are he ministers is harsh. and miles from each other, and he has no car! not even a bike. some times he has no transportation, so he stays with the tent in bad areas over night to preach the nect night. he is nonstop ministry, a pator, and he doesnt even have a car, ans often walks mile after mile!!
I go to a meeting in the morning with a bunch of pastors, Its awesome the message of the kingdom is getting out, and people are hungry. I keep drilling it in people though everywhere I go, if "revival" stays in a building it will die, we must disciple the people. and take it to the streets and make it a lifestyle. allso soe thing I am dismantleing over here that is HUGE, is the "man of God" complex. that there is a great "man of God", and you go to him to get your healing, word of God, and or direction for your life, thats why preachers in africa all wear suits and such, well excpet for me. I am doing everything I can to discipling people and teaching them all to do what Jesus said to do. aaaahhhhh, it is so much fun, I see these young peoples passion, I just cry, it makes me come alive. I burn for this, allready there is a handfull that I am becoming best freinds with. Because they know like I di, that they will rock the face of the planet for God, and they are just ready and willing.

Yes!! well that is not a very organized blog, but oh well, I'm tired, and I need to sleep. but. there is a small picture into my world again. be blessed everyone!!! never stop, never give up. be known for love and truth. "killin devils and taking names" as some say it. lol.

I am a humbled man, with a passion that is growing, a fire that is burning, and i cant wait to learn more. Luv,
Sincerely,
Dennis

This is a journal entry from my written journal. 9-17-10 South Africa.
I flew into durban yesterday in the afternoon, I was quite tired but so excited. The land here is so
beautiful, I was in love with africa before i even landed. I am staying in a nice little "ranadovol", little round house with a thatched roof. I am allready addicted to the unique smell of the thatch on the roof. aahh. It is on a hill covered with bananna trees, and you can see the indian ocean about a mile away from here, the waves are huge, this would make surfers very happy from ca, lol, these waves make the waves in santa cruz cry.
I spoke last night at a gathering. I talked about how we dream of changing the world, but God dreams about us. We are created in the image of God, (gen 1:27) so a revelatin of Jesus is a revalation of ourselves. God, 'Foreknew you before the foundations of the world, and predestined you to be conformed to the image of his son. (rom 8:29, So before the world was created, God had a dream. HE took a dream and he wrapped a body around it. You are that dream.
The only time you are jealous of anybody else in the kingdom of God, is when you dont know who yu are yourself. When you know who you are you will not want to be anybody else. Because you are so extremely wonderfully made, and there is such extravagant greatness and destiny inside of you.
When I read the word, when I am aware of his Presence, in worship, praise, healing the sick, ect. I am encountering the person of Jesus christ and the false identities of the world just fall away, and Gods dream comes true. I place a high value on everyone around me, because they are Gods dreams, And I live to make Gods dreams come true.
As I spend time in scripture, and obedeince to the word of God, I am being conformed into his image, then I go minister to every one around me and in doing so, I make sure that I take care of whats on Gods heart, because teir dreams all are happening and so is Gods.
Anyways so last night everyone that was prayed for was healed I beleive. A man with no arches had instant arches in his feet, asthmam sinuses, pains gone.A womans womb moved back into its right place for the first time in her life, it was a great night, people are so hungry. amazing soil here.
This morning I woke up, "which is good",lol.
We drove to town to pick essentials, I prayed for a man with astroke, (no visible change). later in a different market I prayed for a lady with a leg a good 4 inches shorter than the other one. I prayed and it grew out a god 3 1/2 inches, and she was amazed, all the pain left, but it didnt quite come completely out. I asked her 17 year old daughter if she had ever met the Holy Spirit? she said no, so touched her hand and she fell over, so I grabbed her so she didnt bounce on the concrete. she was so rocked by the presence of the Holy spirit, I also prayed for her brother and they were rocked, and willbe coming to the meetings. btw, I will be speaking at different things throughout the week,I luv it it is nonstop, and will only get better and better and allso they started a sunday night meeting for me to teach and train. I walked into a bank, and prayed for the tellers, a few of them had sinus problems, and they were instantly healed. I'm not gonna lie, its kinds like giving candy to a kid here:) I did pray for a man with very little use of his legs, and seen very little change. kind of frustrating on that one. But I am giving every second of my life while i am here to see this stuff break.
Tonight I ministered to a group of youth, they are so passionate. I am soooo in love with the african people, they are such beautifull people, you begin to pray and talk about the holy spirit and they come alive. I told everyone with a burning fire in them to come to the front, half of the young people came up and erupted in prayer, the atmosphere was soo intense, it was awesome. the youth pastor had a leg an inch short and back problems, so I had one of the young afdrica girls grow his leg out. lol, it was so awesome to watch their faces as his leg grew out, adn she started crying. I cant wait till till I get to take them into the rural communities, and to the "tents" (big tents they tke from village to village). its going to be crazy easy and fun. because they hear, and do:) Well its past my bedtime, I go in the morning to go to a meeting with local pastors.

Forever,
dennis

P.s. I told Jesus I wanted to go fishing, hunting something, and see a lion, elephant, ect while I am here, before I leavesometime, lol. so we will see. good night.

Dear friends,
Today has the potential to be the best day of my life, why, because it is a day I have never before therefore the possibilities are endless. And because I have the authority to choose, I choose to make today the best day of my life, I will make yesterday jealous of today.

The last blog was written @ 1:30 am Tuesday morning, I slept a few hours, and than began my Tuesday, it was one of those days where you don't feel anything. You just want to get things done to get them done, you know what I mean. I went to wall mart to buy some materials for “SSOO” (San Jose School of Obedience”. When I walked in there was a man with a wheelchair and I helped him load up his wheel chair, his hips were wired together, he was addicted to drugs, and his body was filled with aids. I began to love on him, prayed for his hips, and commanded aids to leave his body. He seen some improvement, I wanted 100% but I just loved on him, and spoke into his life, gave him a hug and he went on his way.
The next lady I met had a cane, I started talking to her, she had multiple diseases including diabetes, and constant pain in her body. She was a christian but had no idea what the will of God was concerning her life, and that God was good God in a good mood. I taught her how it was not Gods will that she had these diseases, and that she needed to get mad at the devil and stay in love with God and then command these afflictions to leave her body. We prayed all the pain left her body. And I spent the next 1 1\2 hours praying for people. Now remember I felt nothing, I was a a tad bit uptight with a few things on my mind. But I seen needs and I have disciplined my self to operate out of faith, and not by sight or feeling. So if I don't feel anything, I still count the word of God as truth, and I will live obedient to the word, whether my world is falling apart or not. Because even if I lost all and lived in a tent I would not change what I do, I would still do ministry, heal the sick and set the oppressed free. Why? Because I am a king, I am a son of God and the kingdom wins all the time, It will change, and I do not operate by feelings, sight, or circumstances, I operate by the word of God, the voice of God, and the standards and rules of the Kingdom of heaven.
Following wall mart I went to change the oil in my car, and while that was happening I got lunch in a Mexican restaurant nearby. After I had ordered my burrito, “extra spicy, and with extra cilantro”:) I asked a Hispanic man next to me if he had back pain. He said he did, So I asked him if he wanted to be well, and that Jesus would heal him if he wanted to be well. HE said YES, and stood there ready. I laughed, I luv the Hispanic people they are the most loving and honest people as a whole. I took his hand and commanded his back to be healed, and he touched his toes completely healed. An older Hispanic lady came out from the kitchen, (she was the owner). She was dragging her 16 year old grand daughter and pushed in front of me, because she recognized Jesus was there. I looked at her and asked her what she needed, she was so sweet, lol, she said “ I have no idea my grand ma just said to stand here”, with a bewildered look on her face. I just took hands and asked The holy spirit to encounter her, in seconds tears were in her eyes as she encountered the person of the Holy spirit. She turned and disappeared into the kitchen and returned dragging her dad behind her. He had the same bewildered look on his face, and she pushed him up in front of me, I asked him, “what do you need”. He said “I don't know, my daughter just told me to stand here.” lol. Her daughter whispered in my ear he needs hope, and he needs to be clean. I simply said , he doesn’t need a miracle, he needs Jesus. I just took his hands and asked the Holy spirit to encounter him, the next thing you know there are tears streaming down his face as the pure love and power of God filled him!!
The grandma asked to be healed in her knees, so I had the granddaughter lay her hands on the grandmas knees, and she was instantly healed. Another lady needed her teeth healed because she couldn’t get an appointment at the dentist. The girl laid her hands on her mouth and her teeth were instantly healed. A handful others were all healed instantly when she prayed for them, actually everyone that wanted to be healed was instantly healed when she prayed for them.


We had a great time in house church Tuesday night as we talked about what it means to disciple people, and How Jesus never taught a salvation message like its taught most all over the world today. Jesus never said go into all the world and make decisions. He said “Go into all the world and DISCIPLE NATIONS!!.

If a man went into a nightclub and spent the night seducing a girl and waited till the atmosphere was right, and everything was perfect, then in a moment of passion he slept with her, and a baby was born out of a one night stand. And that man now ran away and never fathered or discipled that baby, he know produced a bastard. A child who never got to meet his father, and now most often grows up hating fathers, and having a hard time in life.

Christians would point fingers and say “how could you do that”. But Christians do it all the time!!!! They have these events and places where they get the music just right, say just the right words, and in a moment of passion create spiritual babies, and often never see them again, never discipleship them, and never allowing them to get to know their father. And they create spiritual bastards, that grow up mad at Christianity, and hating the Father.

God can use anything, and I know many people that were led to the kingdom this way, it can be used, its just very dysfunctional. See there is thousands that were led to Christianity in this way and they were talked into Christianity, see if you can be talked into Christianity you can usually be talked out of it, but its hard to talk to talk someone out of an experience. This is why in 1 corinthians 2:1-5 paul said. “My message and my preaching were not with wise and persuasive words, but with a demonstration of the Spirit's power, 5so that your faith might not rest on men's wisdom, but on God's power”.
See what ever method is used to bring people into the kingdom is the method they will put faith in. You have so many powerless Christians out there handing out tracks, holding signs, doing all kinds of things Jesus never said to do. Getting people to pray things Jesus never Got them to pray, and having people put faith in words.
See if you have some one pray the sinners prayer, “ Jesus please forgive me and all my sins, come into my heart, and I believe that you you are the Son of God.” and then you tell them that they are now saved. You just lied to them, they are not exactly saved, they are now righteous. And how can you ask for forgiveness if has already forgiven you?? see no one will ever go to hell for being a sinner, they will go to hell for not accepting what Jesus did on the cross and walking in it. “saved” or salvation means “sozo” which means healed, saved, delivered”
You can be emotionally, physically, and financially broke, and still be righteous, you just are NOT SAVED period. Romans 10:10, “for with the heart a person believes, resulting in righteousness, and with the mouth he confesses, resulting in salvation”
See the moment some one believes in there heart they are righteous. The devils believe and they shake, this “believe” is different it means “to put your entire confidence in”. See once you believe and are righteous you now become holy, you are seen as holy by Jesus, you are now anointed, they Holy spirit can now take abode in you, you are now equipped to with every thing you will ever need to walk in salvation. And go save other people. And when you speak there is life in your tongue, now with confession “declaring” and commanding things to be you walk in salvation!!!

But It is WAY easier to preach the “a salvation message” with a sinners prayer, because it takes responsibility of your shoulders and puts it on Gods shoulders, and allows you to feel great about throwing newborn babies back into the world with no weapons, Armour, or equipped to fight, left to be shot, wounded, and scarred for life. Like I said God can use anything. But don't let your own powerlessness, and weak lack of responsibility create spiritual bastards, and misrepresent the Father on on the earth. Jesus said in John 10:37, “If I do not do the works of My Father, do not believe Me;'
Jesus hung the credibility of his own ministry on signs, wonders and miracles.
In verse 38 it says “but if I do them, though you do not believe Me, believe the works, so that you may know and understand that the Father is in Me, and I in the Father." Have you ever had a pastor say “ if you don't believe me, than at least believe what I do, because the works I do point to the father”. I have only heard that a few times in my life, and the said thing is most Christians instantly think it must be a devil, that some one would preach with works.
In the bible times if you did not have signs wonders and miracles you were under suspicion and thought most likely to have devils. Nowadays if you walk in signs, wonders and miracles and what JESUS SAID TO DO, than you are under suspicion and thought most likely to have devils. I'll tell you who has devils!!! the powerless pew sitters who misrepresent Jesus, and are against anything that starts to represent Jesus in his true form. You want to know what is antichrist?? See I was a pastor in a church, I still am a pastor, just not in a powerless system with a form of Godliness and no power thereof. I had Christians come to me with problems, and when I prayed demons manifested, faces at times contorting and other voices coming out. Afterward they were shocked saying” had no idea I had devils”. They had inner healing, sozo's, ect. I told them there is a difference between sozoing and counseling devils and casting them out. SHOW ME ONE PLACE WHERE JESUS DID ANY OF THISE THINGS. He spoke a word and it was so. Do likewise.
Ryan led a girl to the lord in the mall the other night, she was an atheist Buddhist, after a little while of seeing people healed, Ryan looked into her eyes and told her “ this is the real Jesus and you desperately need him”. Tears started streaming down her face as she gave her everything to Jesus, and he has been disciplining telling her to read her bible and obey what she reads. She keeps writing us telling us all that Jesus is telling her, she is more Christ like in a week than some people that have known Jesus for years.

Last Wednesday we had a new church plat about 10 miles from here, after teaching the what I just talked about on discipling people, The one young man stated he wasn’t a christian, so I told him to hold out his hands I just said I want you to meet my best friend. I prayed and I felt nothing, but when I finished praying the love and power of God was so all over him he couldn’t sit down without help. And instantly burst into tears. At that moment he put his confidence in Christ and became righteous by faith. And he is soooo in love with Jesus now we are simply teaching basics, “read the bible believe the bible, do the bible. Lol. Very easy.
There is to much to write about we had an epic weekend, ministry non stop, got to minister to a couple hundred on Sunday morning. And will be doing that again this next Sunday. School of Obedience started on Monday.

Some of the students just walked in the door ecstatic with testimonies from Jack in the box minutes ago. Monday was our first day of school, after orientation, and evening guys and girls groups we went to a couple restaurants to eat. While there we started praying for everybody and all the staff were getting healed in both restaurants and we are preaching the gospel to all. Yesterday we went to pick up pizza for the evening house church, and had 20 free minutes, so we found 5 different people and brought the kingdom of heaven to them.

We simply a handful of young people in san jose who have given every second of our lives to pursuing truth, to pursuing doing what Jesus said to do. But we are going to rock the face of this known earth with the power and love of Jesus Christ. I could talk for hours and hours, but school is starting again. So I gotta go. Be blessed everyone. I have a few moe things I want to share this week I will have to do that later. Brandon is teaching right now.

Hi every one, It is 1:30 am Tuesday morning, I flew back from Montana today and am a bit tired, but I wanted to blog a bit, as it seems I need to learn how to do this bloggingJ

A few weeks ago Ryan, Laura, Brandon and I went to Rhode Island, and attended “Power School of Dominion” with Charles Ndifon. He is a great man of God and we learned a lot from him, and I was privileged to become his friend.
One of the main things I learned from him is what it means to truly act and conduct myself as royalty, and to walk as a king and a son of God. I came to the full reality that I am not believing God for anything. I have already believed God, therefore I speak. “2 Cor 4:13.

I’ve been learning about having “the faith of God”. When God said “light be” light was, and his word will not return back to him void, that is why the galaxies are still expanding at the speed of light.
The Holy Spirit lives in us, and our words are spirit and they are life, life and death is in the tongue, when we speak with faith that same creative power is spoken, and we do not doubt in our hearts but believe that what we say will happen, and it does. “Mark 11:23. The verse before that talks about “faith in God” if you read it in the Greek, the word “IN” is not there. The young’s literal translation says to have “the faith of God”. If you are repeatedly saying something, you are not commanding, you are trying to convince yourself you believe. Go pray until the reality of Jesus becomes greater than any other reality, and then speak with authority and conviction and do not doubt in your heart. We live by faith not by sight, or feeling.

When I was on my bedroom floor crying and praying 3 years ago for finances to come through for a missions trip and they did, that was thee moment I lost all right to ever doubt God for finances. The moment I seen a sick person healed was the moment I lost all right to ever doubt Gods will to heal the sick. Ok, I’ll try to not preach and stick to blogging.

In Rhode Island I prayed for a lady on the street paralyzed from the waist down and seen her instantly healed. All I said was “you are healed”. And the feeling and movement instantly returned to her legs. I had prayed for at least 150 wheelchairs in the past 8 months and this was the second person I had seen healed. I attempt to make every person I pray for feel like a rockstar and they all encounter the Love Of God, whether they walk or not. But the day is fast coming when they all will walk. Because I have given my life to this till the day I die. There is way to many testimonies to share, hundreds of them. We went to san Diego at ocean side, where there was a Christian event, two weekends ago and in a day we seen at least over 300 people healed, and radically encountered with who Jesus was. Metal disappearing, creative miracles, deaf ears, sight, and all manners of ailments and emotional healing took place.

See I do not have a “special Gift mix or anointing” I am not a miracle man, I simply have thee Gift of the Holy Spirit and I live a lifestyle of obedience to the word. I do not to this point see all I pray for healed, but I know the heart and the will of God, and I have a core value, that I will never allow my circumstances or experiences to dictate to me what the word says. But I will continue to be obedient to the word, until my circumstances and experiences match the word. When I do not see some one walk in the fullness of salvation and healing, it breaks my heart and drives me to my knees where I pursue having my mind renewed, and being so transformed into he image of Jesus that Jesus receives his full reward. See the question isn’t us asking Jesus, why didn’t they get healed? the question is Jesus asking us, why didn’t they get healed?

All else must lose its flavor in the light of your passion and determination to become like him. Where before him everything fades and you heart beats for one thing, to do the will of the father, only to please him, only to live for him. Forever, and ever, and ever.

I stepped out this past weekend and used money I didn’t have and flew to Montana to visit my family, and while I was there I rented out the local high school auditorium. I had two meetings and my goal and mission was to heal the sick, love on people, and equip others to do the same. And to open my chest and let people see my heart and passion for what has consumed every second of my life. We were expecting a couple hundred, the first night 20+ showed up. And it was awesome, a women that had a blown knee for 10 years I prayed for her before the meeting and she was healed and could walk straight and was sobbing as she encountered the love of God, it was funny as I was getting ready to tell her knees to be healed, she was saying “God if you heal me I will worship you forever”, I was thinking, dear lady you will be worshipping the lord a lotJ. Others were healed and ministered to. And money was given to me to pay for my tickets and beyond!

The second night about 50+ showed up, again I expected hundreds. I felt nothing in terms of “feeling” and my message was scattered, But it was still so awesome, there were a bunch of young people there and if I got to speak into even one of their lives it would be worth it. I was really stoked because one of my best friends for years (Josh swain” was able to come by, and Casey areneson was able to make it, an awesome man of God, and many other amazing friends.
On the other hand I was saddened at the reality that I used to have many many friends in my hometown, and some spiritual fathers and mothers, People I lived life with, and did ministry with, and passionately would give my life for in a second, never showed up or showed their face. There was a time when I was young, I knew little, I was just passionate and 100% committed to burning for the rest of my life. And I was told to pursue God with all that I had, I did that, there has never been a day since that I have not burned with passion for the heart of God and what I am called for. I the sick healed, demons cast out, lost saved, ect But when I pursued truth, “friends” disappeared, and I have very few who stand with me in my hometown. But that is changing as people encounter truth. Oh btw, money was given to me to pay for my tickets and beyond!
Anyways to start withy there was a man with degenerative back disease his disks in his back were collapsed, and his hip was blown pretty much, he hadn’t touched his toes or bent over in years. I told him to touch his toes he was scared at first but he bent over and touched his toes, and his eyes filled with tears as he realized he was healed and that God was real.
I told all the people with pain to come to the front and be healed, like 12 or so came, all but one were healed instantly to my knowledge, and I am following up with her. It is easy when you are the speaker and to ignore people or situations, I hate when that happens I am a man of integrity and to the best of my ability I attempt to follow up and connect with people who did not experience and instant healing.
There were a handful of young people I got to minister to, it was awesome, and my heart burns for them. One young girl especially who works with youth in Libby Montana, was crying and telling me about her heart and passion to see the youth in her town transformed by the love and power of God. Everyone is created in the image of God and called to greatness, but I really come alive when I meet people who have given every ounce and fiber of their hearts and lives like I did, and many others are doing, to burn with passion for God till the day they die, who have given their lives to transforming the face of the world and every one on it, and know that they will accomplish that.

The next morning I was tired and we stopped at a gas station on the way to the airport, I seen a man with a torn meniscus, he said he was in intense pain, I didn’t ask, I just dropped on my knee and told it to be well, I had no idea what to expect, he this crazy look of shock on his face as he realized he was completely healedJ all I did was touch his leg.

I do not have a “healing ministry” or “prophetic ministry”. I simply preach the Gospel of Jesus.

I hope to book my tickets to Africa tomorrow; I have a LOT of emails and messages to return, so I will be getting on that, It is now early morning , lol.

This lifestyle is all the way, or not at all.

The value of something is determined by the price that was paid to obtain it. Jesus placed a value on you when He died on the cross. What are you giving God that costs you something?

People say to pursue the kingdom of God and to be a disciple of Jesus it will cost you everything. Maybe, I believe it will only cost you what you were never called to in the first place.

What most Christians call sacrifice is simply the depth to which they still love the pleasures and vanity of the world, and the comforts of life.

How can it be a sacrifice to give up what I was never called to?

Again I ask, what are you giving God that costs you?


With all my love,
Dennis



P.S. here is part of a song I was writing today, I may finish it, its sung mellow building up and then I scream I’ll scream the chorus, lol, but here is parts of it…


LOVE WAR
V1
To many little voices silenced, shattered by the violence.
Innocence taken, now left, bleeding on the floor.

To many tears have fallen, broken hearts keep callin.
Hoping this time, they won’t, have to cry any more
V2
In every generation, every culture, every nation.
The same pain, just disguised, wishing to be stronger

I’m so through praying, and waiting
And I will not, stay silent, any longer

Chorus
This is the sound of a revolution
Hearts screaming, this invisible roar
On the lips of Holy Warriors
Declarations of a Love War

Hi everyone,

A week ago we had a RevivalReform meeting on Sunday night and immediately following that i hopped in my car and drove to redding CA to meet with some good friends I had went to school of ministry with, and they had been in different places around the world and we all got back together to go on a backpacking trip into the Trinity Alps in northern CA for a few datys.

It was awesome, I have a need to be free, to be raw, wild, untamed, and to explore. And so it was really good to get into the mountains again. I had a 50 lb pack, and the hike into the lake was 9 miles so it wasn’t to bad, but still was a good workout, we spent 3 days and two nights, we were going to spend the whole week, but circumstances came up so we made it shorter. The air is so clear up there and the mountains so beautiful, I caught some fish and hiked around a bt, really just relaxed and lay in the sun by the lake a lot. You can see pictures on my face book if you want.

We came back to Redding on Thursday and I was able to spend some time with friends I haven’t seen in a while. BTW, its so awesome to have friends who are transforming the world, and when you get together, you just talk about the main points in life, and a few highlights, and enjoy each others presence, otherwise to begin to talk about all that goes on would take days.

Friday night in Redding my friend Lars who has been in Norway the past year said we should just get some people healed while we were there. So we went to a local area with plenty of people, the first guy we approached as we got out of the car had a brace on his elbow, I just told him to hold out his arm and I put my hand on it and commanded it to be well. He acted like nothing happened, so I prayed again, he was skeptical but admitted that there was something taking place. We loved on him, and spent a few minutes reaching the gospel to him. And then continued on our way, we prayed for a handful of people all of which were healed except for one person that did not see immediate results. But when we returned to the car there was a piece of paper stuck on my windshield, I picked it up and read it, it was from the man that we prayed for with the hurt elbow. He wrote an entire letter!! He said, Dennis and Lars, I need to tell you that my elbow is better, he said, you have to understand that its not just better, it is better than it has been in the past ten years!!, and he proceeded to talk about a few things ask us to pray for his mom. That’s awesome!! Because we are created in the image of God, Gen1:27, and when God spoke he spoke the world into being. When we speak we have the same creative power in our words, (life and death is in the power of the tongue) and when we speak those words will not come back void until they have accomplished what they were commanded to do. Because we have the spirit of the living God living inside of us, our words create worlds, and command realities to be either removed or created. Gal 2:20, Cor 6:17.

Saturday morning I got up and got a phone call for a man with cancer with weeks to live, and the man told me to call this girl named krystal. So I called the girl and halfway through the conversation she goes, is this…Dennis Bontrager??, I said yes, then I realized who I was talking to, it was a girl I had met in a youth group like 4 years ago when I was in BSSM and I used to drive about an hour to speak at their youth group and love on the kids. One night I needed 500 dollars for a missions trip in two days, and I had no money and nothing to my name except my guitar worth about 450$. God told me to give my guitar to this girl named krstal. So I did, and the following morning there was a check for 500$ that was given to me. When this happened I told God I wanted a better one back, and that I wanted a custom built taylor with a curly maple back and spruce top, and of course 8 months ago a man walked up and handed me a guitar case with that exact guitar in itJ worth around 2700$. SO, back to the origonal story, so I talked and reconnected with her and she gave me the address, so I went and prayed for the man with cancer, and seen some improvements, and am waiting for results back.

I came home Saturday night and it is soooo good to be back with my family, we’re not all blood related, but we are family, and its so beautiful.

We have launched the beginning of “school of obedience” which starts august 23^rd, so it’s a flurry of getting ready for that, talking to people who want to come, added to the normal ministry. But its all good, it makes us grow. Sunday morning we went to a local church called “Jubilee Christian center” ryan and Brandon went last week with some friends that have been attending there for some time, and a lady that was in a wheel chair for over 5 years I believe, was healed and dancing around, so this Sunday following the service on the way out we healed 15+ people backs, deaf ears, pains, one lady had crutches and walked away with out them. So that was good. Following the service my friend let me ride his motorcycle, I cant even describe what happens to me when I am on a bike, its like I was made for them. Ya….I’m not even going thereJ

I am gripped with the reality of heaven the last couple days and being in love with The person of the holy spirit. I m a person who doesn’t focus much on feelings, I have them more than most people I know, and I have left my body and have visions and lost of stuff like this, which is awesome, but I don’t talk about it because it is not necessary to do what Jesus said, and its easy to over spiritualize things, But I realized the past weeks that my life of intimacy has been lacking, and I have an extremely high value for being in a constant state of intimacy with God, and being in a “holy fear” of who he is, which means “reverential awe”. And at the same time be so completely even totally romantically in love with him, it’s a burning consuming fire that consumes all of who I am, I have never been truly in love with a girl, and I used to say I didn’t know what it was like, but that is not true, Because I am in love my Jesus and I am consumed with it, its all I think about, he is all I dream about. My world revolves around him, Yes he is my Lord, but he is also my beloved. And who can quench the flames of passion, no ocean, no man, no circumstance will ever come close.

Well I have to go, we have someone here from Singapore who is with us for a few days and we are going to the streets, so I need to be meeting with a bunch of radicals in 30 minutes at a local market. So be blessed!!! Luv ya’ll!!

To compose today, is to write history.

Freedom, Inscribed in the blood of our forefathers
Scrawled across the parchment of history
A reality, in which we freely live.

With quills of honor, and the spirit of God
We write the pages of today, History
This generation will live to see.

Tomorrow, what length will we go
What price will be paid
To compose, History, The future,
In which our children’s children will live.

What value will be placed
On the blank pages they face
As they live in a world we composed.
