A Letter From Pastor Carl:
We believe that the lines between the heaven and earth are being blurred as we pray “Thy kingdom come Thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven.” Just as the prophet prayed for his servant’s eyes to open to see into the spiritual realm, I believe that this sort of encounter happened on our recent church camping trip.
2 Kings 6:16-17 So he answered, "Do not fear, for those who are with us are more than those who are with them." And Elisha prayed, and said, "LORD, I pray, open his eyes that he may see." Then the LORD opened the eyes of the young man, and he saw. And behold, the mountain was full of horses and chariots of fire all around Elisha." NKJV
Paul also prays this way In Ephesians1:15-23" Therefore I also, after I heard of your faith in the Lord Jesus and your love for all the saints, do not cease to give thanks for you, making mention of you in my prayers: that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, may give to you the spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of Him, the eyes of your understanding being enlightened; that you may know what is the hope of His calling, what are the riches of the glory of His inheritance in the saints, and what is the exceeding greatness of His power toward us who believe, according to the working of His mighty power which He worked in Christ when He raised Him from the dead and seated Him at His right hand in the heavenly places, far above all principality and power and might and dominion, and every name that is named, not only in this age but also in that which is to come.
"And He put all things under His feet, and gave Him to be head over all things to the church, which is His body, the fullness of Him who fills all in all." (NKJV)
The picture of the heavenly spheres was taken while we were worshipping the first night of the outing. The pictures of the of the scene with the 3 dogs and the fire of God was taken the second night Just seconds after each other. We were praying protection over the camp after the Lord revealed to us that we were camped on a high place that the enemy had claimed. We took back the ground and released the fire of God on our enemies. The pictures were the result of this warfare. I believe that these pictures depict the actual warfare that takes place in the spiritual realm as we pray. Above all else it brought us confirmation on how effective our prayers really are and the effect and changes in the spirit that take place.
Glory to God!
Pastor Carl
