REVIVAL CAMP MAY 27-31 2011
A powerful weekend of honour, Presence, power and healing. Around 250 of us including children turned up to camp at the Lenchwood Centre, Spitten Farm over the bank holiday weekend. It was so good seeing people beginning to lay hold of who they are in Jesus and how they can make a difference just by being who they are. Quite a few people healed physically, especially through the ministry and oversight of Ian Andrews, and others in the areas of their mind and emotions. Many overwhelmed and empowered by the Father heart of God. Some lovely stories beginning to emerge of the way God was working. Here are just a few:
Tegan (7 yrs) went into the encounter tent with her friends and Jo M on Saturday morning to have a look around. She took a liking to one of the crowns. I’ve taught her well!
she asked if she could keep it, but was told there where for everyone to play with. Someone pointed out the box of gifts in the middle of the tent. She was told they where all presents from God and if she asked him to tell her which one was for her, He would tell her. She doesn’t normally hear God speak to her, but she did what she was told to do and asked. Father God said “pick that purple one there”, Which she did. Guess what it was? Yep, you’ve got it… It was a silver crown with 3 coloured jewels on it and the word PRINCESS across the front. She was so so delighted with her gift and more so that she heard Him speak to her. Isn’t He incredibly gorgeous. Carrie x x
One of my favourite testimonies from the Breakthrough ministry. During her session a lady gave Father God some negative emotions and was given a gift of a sword in return. Afterwards she goes into the encounter tent, where a little boy hands her a toy sword saying, “God told me to give you this.” (G)
wow i am so amazed what god has done this weekend.i had brake through over a situation and we went out side the tent to throw a stone and we prayed and as soon as we said father i was out in the spirit laughthing was amazing i feel so free of that situation.then on mon am i felt i was not good enough for god i was not his princess or queen and felt everyone was better than me i had a long conversation about this and in the end i was brave enough to go forwad and put on the cloke and crown and as we were praying about this a little girl came from no where and started to pray saying i am gods child and his prinsess and as she touched me i went down in the spirit and god gave me a massive hug i am just bowled over how the little girl helped wow god can use children thats my test thats part of whats gone on for me during the weekend alot more has gone on so yeah thats my testimony. (K)
During my breakthrough session I got a picture of pink roses, in exchange for some of myold negative stuff – I’d already had my gift from the encounter tent of a small bow with pink roses on it. When I got home the pink rose bush in my garden that hasn’t had flowers for years was in full bloom.I also got confirmation that breakthrough training is something I want to do – and could do ( I’d doubted my ability more than anything). Later with the crowning and the sword I realised that I really don’t need to keep feeling inferior…and just as an added bonus, despite always having been allergic to eggs, the vast quantity of cake I ate didn’t make me sick.
Reading your testimonies has brought tears to my eyes. The goodness of God and His unfailing love is awesome. I am also encouraged that although we could not be with you, in my quiet moments here on holiday God has been speaking to me very clearly about being a sword bearer and that my sword is His purpose and gifting which has been placed in my hands by the King. I love that He can make up for us not being with you all and that His message still gets through!
I am so thankful you all had an encouraging time! (Caroline)
the fire of God as entered my bones! My thought life is under control i awake with worship songs singin inside of me. Last night i talked to Jesus in a dream and awoke praying. I also pray for poeple in my dreams. Whilst Alexa prayed for me at camp angels practically lifted me off the floor and one stood either side of me. Next day at cream tea i was sitting at a table of six on my own and parents just kinda dropped there kids off their, nodde to me and went there way? I had cream tea and scones with 5 children. The Lord is saying something here? The day after i get back my new client asked if i will pray for her incurable cancer when her husband is not there!! Watch this space. My broken relationship is beginning to heal! My step daughter as hated me for months with a violent vengeance. Last night i prayed with her and afterwards she confessed to not understanding why she hated me when ime so nice. She’s 13 and on fire. I had ministery with Giles and much was broken off me. Its not over. I need more healin and cry daily. But i am on fire and dangerous and the enemy knows my name. Yea GodX (Francis) Also just readin through comments from camp. May i state the obvious? Father is highlighting little children to show us gently an example we all need!
Laura’s leg was grown out and her hip does not hurt anymore after many years of dry joints. She does not wake up with stiff legs anymore. Thank God! (Matt)
Becca’s Testimony (13yrs old)
We all were asked to pray for the person next to us, for us to heal them or pray for them. I asked mine to pray for my excema which I’ve had for years, and as she prayed I felt the holy spirit go through me! It wasn’t an instant healing. The man who asked us told us to come up to the front if we had felt the holy spirit. So I went up. He then asked if there was any teenagers who went up, so me and this other boy stepped forward. There also was this man at the front who had a problem with his leg, and wanted it to be healed. The leader then told me and the boy to put our hands on his leg and pray for it to be healed; “In Jesus name, may it be healed” .. And then it started growing, I couldn’t stop smiling. I felt so happy! Then the boy prayed and I prayed again and it grew even more. We eventually got asked to sit down, and I had this non-stop feeling of dizziness throughout the day. IT WAS A MIRACLE!!
Life changing… mind blowing… fun from start to finish… discovered unknown family in God’s family… equipping… affirming… sensative… gentle… exciting… awesome… encouraging… recognized from fb by five people… first time ever experience of camping… wonderful waking up to amazing birdsong every morning… people honouring each other spontaneously… THANK YOU DADDY GOD, JESUS AND THE HOLY SPIRIT!!!
I now have a 6×4 inch bruise on my right foot from when I twisted my ankle taking a peek at the Encounter Tent within half an hour of arriving at camp!!! However after resting with Lionel the lion for half an hour and people waiting on me and praying for me, I was able to dance with Jesus that night and throughout the weekend and walk with no pain at all!!! Thank You, Jesus!!!
I was so thrilled at how Jesus used the children throughout the weekend in the Encounter Tent to pray for people and also to pray for the right gift from the treasure chest for each person! They were able to minister to people in ways that we would not have been able to! The adults relaxed and let them dress them up in the cloak of righteousness and the crowns and the bridal wear and The Holy Spirit just melted their inhibitions away! So, LORD, Bless each and every one of those little ones that You used to Your Glory throughout the weekend!
Last year three young women from Bethel came to our church to prophesy over us all. The young woman who ministered to me told me that Jesus would place a ring upon my finger! Well, guess what my gift was from the treasure chest (the children asked Jesus what would be the right gift for each person and all the gifts were wrapped up!)… a beautiful butterfly ring!!! But it wasn’t just the ring that Blessed me, it was the butterfly on it, because for some time now Daddy has been speaking to me about His Garden where all our souls/spirits are like beautiful flowers. Yet I am a butterfly in that Garden, flitting from flower to flower, ministering His Love lightly to each one!!! So Thank You for that Privelege Daddy and Thank You for my gift Jesus – because You Knew how much it would Bless my heart!!! And Bless the young woman who was so accurate in her prophesy last year!!!

One young lad has asked for baptism since coming home, and another couple looking to do the marriage course! definately God! …….Beginning to hear of things from people in CCC that have been inpacted in unexpected ways. So praising God all the way!” ……(M)
I have a testimony… it tells of how, at the very end of the camp w/e I got set free from a spirit of fear that had attached itself to me after I’d had a vision of The Majesty of God back in March 2005. I had no idea that was what was stopping me from wanting to be overwhelmed with His love. Now it has gone and I see only love in His eyes. (H)
Revival Kids 2011 - Words and Pictures from the Prayer Shack
A picture of a house.
I saw an angel guarding the prayer shack. I heard “the Lord wants you and loves you. Please watch out for people”.
I saw a teddy in the prayer shack. It was given by God, in a box with a bow. The teddy means comfort.
God told me that I have an angel next to me. (Aged 5)
God told me that he loves me.
God said to me that we are lovely.
I saw an angel.
I felt a sudden wind. Then the sun coming out from behind a cloud.
I saw Jesus on the cross.
God said “I love you”. (Age 4)
I saw a wave, the Holy Spirit, coming towards us. The world is behind us waiting; we’re not exactly there yet.
I saw an angel. It was golden and hovering off the ground, with huge wings. It was slightly transparent and was looking down, just above us. It was glowing really. It looked different to a normal angel, it looked really really different. It looked like gold metal. It was a bit frightening but not in an evil way. The muscles were all tense. It was a very important high-up angel.
I saw a huge waterfall. I heard “who is in the water fall?”
I saw an angel. It was great, fantastic, incredible!
I saw a sparkle.
I saw angels last night! I looked up and saw some glowing and then a sparkle. I saw a shadow of light and then some working and digging; digging fast. Then I felt shaking and saw the angel.
I felt Jesus sitting next to me.
8 June - Another testimony from Revival Camp! One of the words that was given in the children’s group, was for children who are really struggling with their work at school. A number of children responded & we prayed with them. Well, as many know, our lovely Hannah (nearly 7 years old) has been struggling a lot at school for quite a while. She was one of the children who responded. Today she came out of school so happy as she has gone up a level on her reading books, and a group in her times tables! We prayed about it, to thank God for his help and love, and she had a picture of Jesus sat next to her, helping her
