I could hardly wait until our next prayer meeting. The excitement and anticipation within my spirit seemed to increase every day. Each day I would find myself saying, “Lord, I just know that You are up to something here! You have not forgotten what You did at Barney Creek! You are going to do it again! You are sending Barney Creek Second Edition!”
When we finally gathered for the next prayer meeting, we were eager to see what God was going to do next. As we were getting ready to pray our focus was again turned to the fact that God had chosen this place over 100 years ago to pour out His Holy Spirit and if He wanted it here then, He still wanted it here now! He has not changed His mind!
During our prayer, I was again drawn to a time of repentance. My prayer was something like this:
“Father, when You poured out Your precious Holy Spirit here, it became our ‘Point A’ and You desired us to be here today at ‘Point B’ in a greater measure than we are presently. We repent for allowing detours and distractions to hinder us on our journey. We have wandered around and around just like the children of Israel wandered in the wilderness. They could have arrived in the Promised Land in a much shorter amount of time, but through their attitudes and actions, they delayed their arrival and many did not even get to experience the joy of entering in.
But You, Father, are more than able to supernaturally propel us to the place we should be had we not allowed these detours and distractions to have taken place. Take us to that place, oh Lord!”
Then the prophetic word of the Lord began to come forth which stated that He was more than able to take us to that place just as if we were on a super highway with no detours, no distractions and no limits.
Once again we felt within the very depths of our spirits that God was indeed taking us from point A to point B in ways that were beyond our human understanding.
