Kairos Ministries
 A ninety minute drive across the cattle pastures of Florida, brought me once again to Moore Haven. This is a tiny little town that really has only one industry, "prisons". Prisons are usually stuck out in places far from people and for a good reason. People don't want to be bothered with them, and they would like to forget that they actually exist.
This is why Jesus reminded us about "Visiting Him in Prison" in Matthew Chapter 25;36 We tend to not look at those things which we care not to see!
Let me share what I took the time to see on a recent ministry weekend to Moore Haven Correctional Center.
+I saw a sick inmate who had a cold and he was blowing his nose with toilet paper. He was coughing and felt terrible. I laid my hand on his shoulder and prayed for his healing and God quickly took his symptoms away and he could participate in the discussions.
+ I saw another inmate given a paper napkin along with his meal, and he felt the texture of it and held it against his cheek. He was so appreciative of the softness of the napkin and so tired of using rough toilet paper as a substitute for a napkin.
+ I saw several inmates call to those serving refreshments, to serve their fellow inmates who were not being served.
+ I saw a strong muscular inmate sit next to me during the break with tears in his eyes thanking me for the teaching I brought forth. He said, "Don't stop what you are doing."
In a church culture where ministers pour their hearts out to people who are complacent, rebellious, and focused on their worldly pursuit of wealth and possessions, why don't more reach out to those who really want to receive?
I seem to remember Keith Green, back in the late seventies, saying:
"Stop hauling water to the ocean, and start taking it to the deserts!"

FREEDOM PRAYER:
EMOTIONAL HEALING MINISTRY 
"Sixty seven years I have carried this emotional pain!" "Fifty years I've believed a lie." "I am experiencing the most peace I have ever known in my whole life." "My wife is a changed woman since you prayed for her!" "I can sleep at night now without fear."
These are just some of the words we are hearing as the Holy Spirit once again has launched us into the Freedom Prayer Ministry we had begun in West Virginia. It is one of our greatest joys to see the captives set free and the brokenhearted mended by the Father's love.
One day in June, a woman called. She was "fed-up" with old thought patterns and emotional pain. She said, "I prayed, and the Lord told me to call Randy and Marie." She called, we prayed, and she testified that the Lord gave her victory! Many people are calling for Freedom Prayer Ministry.

Now in our living room Jesus is revealing TRUTH each week to many people who have unknowingly bought too many lies of the devil and opened doors through "innocent" Occult practices, Soul Ties, Unforgiveness, Judgments, and more. The Holy Spirit is doing a deep and quick work at getting to the roots and we are so thrilled to be His vessels of love.
We were invited to share an introduction to the Freedom Prayer Ministry to the entire Community Healing Rooms of Englewood ministry team. As a result many of those who have a passion for people to be physically healed now want a greater understanding on how to minister emotional healing. Randy encouraged them to ask the Lord to search their own hearts and they are seeking Jesus now for new levels of emotional healing in their own lives first; wonderful!
We hope to train and equip many with the experience, the revelation, and the insight we have gleaned over the years. Hurting people hurt people and healed people help to heal people!
"You shall know the truth and the truth shall set you free!" John 8:32

| TOUCH THE HEM OF HIS GARMENT
A one day gathering for women
 Excitement, Revelation, Worship, Presence, Healing, Deliverance, Food, Fellowship, and Fun! All these and more happened on July 11th at the first all day South West Florida Women of the Light gathering.
Dianne Evans, from the Evans Ministries, and I joined our various giftings, talents and passion for the Lord and for His daughters as we shared and ministered from our hearts! Women from six different towns traveled to our Rotonda West home. Each one "knowing" it was their day to touch the "Hem of His garment". No one left disappointed. Everyone received encouragement and strength so very needed in this hour. We looked at the woman with the issue of blood who was determined to reach Jesus and to be healed and we decided we all had "issues" that only Jesus could heal! To read Dianne's wonderful teaching she shared on being "Up front and Personal" with Jesus click on to Dianne's Blog
To read the teaching I brought forth; "What's Your "Issue" please click Marie's Blog
Ladies who were unable to attend and those who did are already asking when we will have another day together in His Presence! Thank you Jesus!
