The past three days Kimberly, Levis, Peter and me have been traveling in the west of the country shooting the video for the LACC program. We left on Sunday at 6 am and drove to Corinto one of the cities on the coast for the morning service. Last days i have been feeling that Corinto would be the place where God will start the revival in Nicaragua. It´s located in a very important place for the economy and the leaders of the church are a couple of vision and faith.
After service we went to this sea food restaurant that it´s very famous, but for some reason i can´t remember the name.
Later that day, we decided to go to the church in Leon, the pastor asked us to seat on the platform, that means no pictures of the place and obviously not falling asleep, as you can imagine, we were all really tired but somehow God gave us strength and made us go there to witness more than we imagined.
The service was the end of a week of intercession for the nations. We introduce ourselves to the church and gave thanks for the prayer for our nations. I said. thanks for your prayers, I have learned that intercession can move the heart of God. Never doubt that your prayers will be answer because now i see that I am here as an answer to the prayer of someone I don´t know who asked God to send workers to this nation.
The service started and while they were worshiping the Lord I could see how many young people where worshiping Him, this is a young church and most of the members are or were students of the christian school that the LACC supports.
While they sang the part : "Lift up your eyes and see the crop is ready, the times has come , the grain is mature. Raise up and be brave, Raise up and preach to all the nations that Jesus is the life". I could not stop staring at the flags on the platform where each central American country where represented and they also included the States..So, while they were singing i could see how this young people where that crop the Bible talks about : a crop that is not just ready to be harvested but a seed that is also ready to produce fruit.
Levis had to preach and 15 people came to Jesus, and there is when my most beautiful memory of this trip happened..
Standing there with a face of innocence a lite boy around 14 or 13 years old came to the front to receive Jesus in his heart. Everybody else had someone leading them to the prayer of repentance but him. I wanted to go and ask someone if I could help him and before I stood up God told me: be quiet and see. So I stayed and looked at the boy.
His eyes where shining like stars and a big smile was placed on his face. Staring at the altar he couldn't even´t open his mouth to express any emotion. No one was really talking to him, he was actually being kinda ignored by the rest, but it seemed like he didn't really needed a person to talk to him and make him understand how important his decision was. Because I am sure that he was staring at Jesus.
He lift up his eyes and stare at what someone would call nothing but his face reflected that joy and emotion that only Christ can give and he started to cry while he was asking the Lord to come to his heart. I was crying with him, picturing the big party the angels had in heaven at that time and how proud Jesus where of this brave man who decided to accept the gift of grace.
i have no words to express what my heart felt at that moment, all I can say is yes.. I cried a lot... I cried tears of joy knowing that a new brother was born and to see how that crop was there being harvested and i was there to witness it. Jesus love is so sweet that is not hard to recognize it. He sees more that we can see.
That night he saw more that i could see. He saw a child, His child who was ready to be loved. He saw a man where i saw a kid. He saw a revelation where i saw another person coming to the kingdom. He saw the harvest where I could only see a potential seed.
He trust me a work where all i could see was an inexperienced young woman fighting with the old woman in order to do His will.
