Finding Treasure in the midst of Spanish towns

by John Baw on January 18, 2009

On Saturday a group of us went on a “Treasure hunt” to the nearby town of Los Barrios. The treasure hunt was a way of practising some prophetic evangelism in a totally different context to our home town of Gibraltar. In a totally different environment the clues and prompting of the Holy Spirit just had to be spot-on as most of us are not familiar with the town in questions, its landmarks, etc.

We had a time of worship and prayer and then sure enough we started writing down the clues…pharmacy, silver, municipal square…. domestic abuse….. and went looking for the places and people on our lists. We stumbled on a little square that was, funnily enough the municipal square…with a pharmacy…bounded on the one hand by a street called “la plata” (the silver) and n the other side by a council-run centre for women suffering from domestic abuse!!!! C’mon!!! At that point I had to leave early but a couple of folks were prayed for and I can say that the group that went on the treasure hunt are just off-the-charts encouraged and excited!!!!! We have several people that want to join our next adventure in spreading the love of Father God far and wide!!!!!!

How cool is God? I think we’ve just been “tuning in” to the wrong channel. He certainly does speak clearly when we’ve got our receiver tuned to HolyGhost Radio station, doesn’t He? hahaha! Blessings from Florida.
