Bards and money miracles

Matt arranged a five-star youth hostel in Chesthunt, just north of London. I didn't know youth hostels and five stars could go together, but everything was just excellent for a very reasonable price, including the traditional bacon and eggs for breakfast.

We took most of the day to pray and catch up. Maaike set up a Soul Impact training for young leaders (most of them in their teens), and had some wonderful stories of how God is revolutionising their lives.

Matt is making preparations for a 'bardic training'. In the Celtic times bards were travelling poets, prophets and story-tellers. He believes God is raising up a new generation of bards who will capture the hearts of people for Jesus and minister among the creative class.

Heidi just returned from an extensive trip through Germany and experienced several money miracles. On three occasions she had spent her money, and noticed when looking in her purse that God had supplied several hundreds of new euro's. This makes me wonder... if God supernaturally creates money while we're on the road, then why the hack are we talking about a travel budget?

Kevin and Tim shared that God is taking them through a transition in their ministry, which is a bit unsettling, but also very healthy. I remember the prophetic word they received in Geneva: "Don't you dare to stay in the UK!" God is preparing the Brits to invest themselves (once again) in the continent. Transition is also a theme for Jussi and Niina from Finland. And Warren confirmed that there is an escalation of God's work among young people, especially related to prayer and new expressions of church.

Last March I heard Ana Mendez-Ferrell also testify about God providing her directly in her needs. She lived for a long time (several years, if I'm right) from this 'refilling-wallet' grace of God. Is God preparing us to learn to live in a future time when buying and selling will be impossible for those who belong to Jesus?

I love that stuff with the bardic training. Resonates strongly in my heart. Does this Matt-dude have a blog?

That is very inspiring about money miracles. I did a search on google for money miracles, feeling like I need one. How do these things happen, it is wonderous? I have been given a wonderous oppurtunity to move to Brighton in the UK and live in a nice house and record the album I have been wanting to record to raise money for the setting up of an ecovillage and all is going well except I am going mad wondering how to pay for the transition when I have spent all my savings and gone into debt getting to this point...any ideas of prayers or anything that help make these things happen? I like your alsnt on the bardic thing by the way. I do love the idea that singers and poets and artists are the modern day healers and visionaries and am in love with the mystery and beauty of those moments of remembering and seeing the creator in the creation...anyway, I'm waffling
Would appreciate any feedback commments suggestions help of any kind
Much Thanks
