News Letter November 5th 2005

OPEN HEART MINISTRIES
www.ohmint.org

Dear Friends,

My heart is full of praise to the Lord as we get ready for another home meeting, this time in Janesville, WI.  Last night we were in West Chicago with some very special Italian folk, most of whom had never received prophetic ministry before.  They came because one member of the family had received ministry during a very troubled time in his life.  He was so touched and spiritually awakened that he invited many relatives and last night we saw God really open hearts to His love.

But what is really on my heart at this moment is the report our son, Tim, just gave me concerning the Elgin House of Prayer.  They just finished a 24 hour session, which involved many youth - perhaps thirty or more.  These young men and women are getting more and more passionate in their intercession and passion for Jesus.  They (including Tim, Nathan and many other youth from several churches) are spending more and more time in the House of Prayer and more people are joining them.  But even during some day sessions when almost no one comes, they sing, worship and pray with passion for an audience of One.  

These kids are not religious.  They don't get excited about playing church.  They do get excited about Jesus, revival and worship.  They are part of a huge movement that our enemy will have to reckon with.  They are on track to change our western society.  As this movement grows, these kids will become stronger and stronger in their use of spiritual gifts and before long will be used in dynamic power evangelism with prophecy, healing and signs and wonders.

I'm asking our older intercessors to pray protection over them.  They wrestle with their flesh, especially pride issues, etc., and pray with each other to stay humble and broken before the Lord.  We can protect this movement with our earnest prayers.

I also got an email from Lou Engles, concerning a prophetic dream which saw a "New Jersey" being place on the Supreme Court.  The dream happened when Harriet Miers was the nominee.  Later when she withdrew her nomination, Judge Alito, from New Jersey, was nominated.  We are urged to pray for this nominee, and for him to be strong for righteousness and help overturn the tragedy of Roe v. Wade.  

It is getting so exciting, seeing righteousness rising up amidst all the evil in this world and in our society.  Let's join the Army of God and fight in the heavenlies.

Other changes and new things are in the wind which we are not free to talk about right now, but we are pursuing God's wisdom and power to do His work in His Name.

Please pray for us for wisdom for our future schedule.  Several places are calling us and we need to know God's plan.  

Also, remember our new book "With Me - A Captivating Journey Into Intimacy" is out, and we are getting exciting reports about its impact on the few who have already finished it.  Brenda convinced me to also have it done in hardback.  It will be more expensive, but beautiful and we feel it is going to be worth the expense to have it in hardback quality.  Meanwhile you can still get it in paperback for $10 including shipping and handling.

We love you all,

Yours for a brand new Great Awakening,

Ben and Brenda and family
