Beginning of a Journey

Some of you know what we have been going through these few months as doors have closed for us to return to Israel for the time being. My brother Gary (age 46) died tragically from a massive heart attack three days before we were scheduled to get on a plane back home to the Land. We had to help my deaf parents with the aftermath and also help with their next steps for the future, given that Gary was their main source of care and my mom hasn’t been in the best health.

The Corona fiasco began shortly thereafter, further complicating our plans, as it did for many. As it stands, the airlines have not yet reimbursed us or offered us another time to fly, though we have attempted to contact them numerous times

After three months of dealing with all the issues revolving around my family, the Lord began impressing on my wife and I about taking this window of opportunity to drive all around America and break strongholds over strategic places and cities. Now, we are pretty spontaneous people but this was something new and different. It was clear that this trip will not be about fundraising or selling music and jewelry. It is about unity, intercession, healing, deliverance, and salvation. The word the Lord gave us was that we were to gather a Gideon Army to break strongholds over this nation and TAKE THE enemy’s CAMP. Thus, www.takingthecamp.com was born.

Only GOD could have orchestrated a send off the way He did. Even only a week beforehand, we had nothing organized to that end. Our assignment was to go from the East Coast to the West Coast, so we thought it would be great to start this journey with a glimpse of the Atlantic. God laid it upon the heart of new found friends and fellow worshipper leaders, Eddie and Tiwana Tucker to open a church building to us in Melbourne FL, truly the East Coast, near the Ocean. However, this church has barely been used in years and we knew very few people in the area. We were sure that it would likely be just us and the Lord.

Then, steps in our friend Gordon who was quickly on board to help promote. With a couple of days to the event, only a few people had confirmed they would show. Come what may, we intended to worship the King, break strongholds and intercede for Florida, no matter who showed up.

To our amazement, people began pouring through the doors and filling the sanctuary, many of whom we have never met before! Quickly, we found ourselves in deep worship and intercession as we stood in unity to break strongholds! The Holy Spirit led me to give a word about the mighty men of David. Several people came forth and offered us words of prophecy and encouragement (people we have never met)!

What a way to start this journey! Day two was just as powerful, breaking strongholds over Atlanta with yet another full house on very little notice! Onto Memphis now and then Kansas, where we will stand on the Capitol steps in Little Rock along with some of the political and spiritual leaders we invited to join us in prayer and worship!

This is the time for the Body of Believers to arise in faith and be bold! We would love if you would join us in prayer or come on this adventure WITH US!
