JOURNAL ENTRY DAY 5: JUNE 20, 2007

God will use the foolish things to confound the wise.

The Stand on Church Street continued and was full of ministry opportunity. One man approached a Pure Life leader with questions about why we were bringing the Church to this establishment instead of keeping it where it belongs...in the church buildings. The leader began to explain to the man that we are the church. The man began to walk off and before he approached the end of the curb, he turned around and said, "Maybe I will bring the spirit of pornography to the steps of the church and see how you guys like that."

As the day proceeded, a couple was driving by and decided to turn into Hustler's parking lot. As they approached the door to Hustler Hollywood, they saw us standing outside. They could not go in and decided to come talk to us about why they couldn't. They mentioned they were convicted because they saw a woman reading the Bible and encouraging those who were standing blindfolded and praying in the Spirit. I believe that as the Body of Christ begins to walk in purity and allows the Spirit of God to purge us, we will walk in greater authority in which signs and wonders will follow those that truly believe in the word of God.

As our time was coming to a close, a woman drove by and was very irrate as she saw us standing. She began to scream in her car, then pulled into the nearest parking lot. She got out of the car, with a very angry look on her face, and began to walk back and forth round the people who were standing. She finally got back into her car and drove off.

We concluded our time by sharing what the Lord had shown us through visions, pictures, etc. God is truly drawing His people to a deeper abiding relationship with His Son, Jesus.
