Hey everybody this is Ethan!
The other day me and my brother Stephen got drunk in the Holy Spirit. Yesterday was my dad's Birthday. We prayed for him and I got words and visions, so then I wanted to pray for everyone else. So then they prayed for me and then we prayed for Stephen. Stephen has always wanted to be a slapping ministry person. The word I got was "Stephen, you are a slapping ministry." The last person we prayed for was my mom. We prayed for her for over a half hour. Then my dad, Micah, Stephen and I started to laugh. Stephen started rolling on the ground laughing and my dad and Micah were jumping up and down. Then I fell off the couch and started rolling on the floor with Stephen. Stephen and I were like that for an hour. That night showed me that I used to be scared about saying things out loud and laughing out loud, but now I'm not scared to say things out loud and laugh out loud. God showed me that I can do things and it doesn't matter if people are looking at me or not. God has been showing me a lot of words and visions. When we were praying for Micah the first vision that I got was a lion walking on his head and roaring.
We've been having these meetings on Friday nights and ever since this one Friday night I've been having visions and words non stop. I hope it will be like this every single day. God has been telling me that it doesn't matter if you're a little kid or a big kid. You can be a kid and get just as many words and visions as grown ups do. Some people say "You're a kid and you won't get visions like us; when you grow up you will be like us." But that is wrong. You can be a kid and you can be more mature then a grown up. And you don't have to be a set thing. You don't have to be an evangelist, a pastor, or an apostle to be special. You are special. Every single one of you is special. You don't have to preach to be special. And if you haven't received the gift of tongues it doesn't matter. Don't think that the people that can speak in tongues are more special then you. And it doesn't matter who prays for you or who doesn't. Because the same God that is in you is in everybody. And when you are praying for someone if you get the stupidest thing come to your mind don't be afraid to say it; it might be stupid to you but it is probably something big to the people that you are praying for. And don't be afraid to pray out loud. Because the Bible says "Out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaks." (Matthew 12:34)
One of my favorite stories in the Bible is the story of when Jesus got baptized by John the baptist. Matthew chapter 3. I have this children's Bible; it is called "The Jesus Storybook Bible." Another sad but favorite story is the story when Jesus was crucified. Matthew chapter 27. Another one is when Jesus was risen from the dead. And you better believe it, he did!! That one is Matthew chapter 28.
God can move with you in the weirdest ways. He can move through you with animals and pictures and books. When you pray for people and say a word to them out loud you might think that word is stupid but really, really it is not stupid. If something has happened to you don't blame it on God; it is usually the little speck named the enemy. Some people have a big devil and a little God but that is wrong; it is the other way around. Everyone should have a big God and a little devil. Some people think the devil is stronger than God but he is not. Picture this, a scrawny geek and a ripped athlete and who is the scrawny geek and who is the ripped athlete? God is the athlete! , and the devil is the scrawny geek.
We have a new sister!!! and her name is Shauna. She moved in with us on September 30th. She is so great. She almost laughs every second.
Just today, Rob, Becca and Serenity Mcpherson came over. First Becca and Serenity. We prayed for Becca and then when Rob got here we prayed for him. I started laughing and rolling on the ground again. That was another experience. Serenity is 3 and she is a little star. They are so great. Tomorrow is our Friday night meeting. Who knows how it will go? It will probably be really good.
God bless!
Ethan signing out.
