[revival-fire] GOING LOWER STILL...Update...

******* REVIVAL FIRE!!! *******
Hey guys....so I thought I would write just a quick update on whats
happening in my life....It has been so interesting....The past couple of
months have been filled with times of going lower still and watching God
break into the lives of others as I have traveled to here and there and
then from there to here... =)
On the personal front Papa has brought me down lower still. I find the
lower I go, the higher He sends me to soar...the weaker I become, and
embrace the fact, the more I overcome in the strength of joy! I have even
found how much He cares for even the littlest things in my life. I have
watched Him over and over simply show Himself real. The other day, out of
no where there was $40 for me in the fridge!!! I mean come on Jesus!!!!
He just shows Himself real daily. It isnt so much of what He does as it
shows who He is. The greater I yeild the more free I become. The more I
lean, the more I trust, the more I see of the greatness of our God!!! I
have really just been lost in Who He is...looking into the eyes of fire
that burn for me, they burn for you, they burn for the lost and dying of
the world...
I have had the wonderful opportunity to simply travel around California
in the last couple of weeks and just seen God totally invade the lives of
people. From church houses sitting on a hill to the streets of San
Francisco, I have literally watched the love of God invade the lives of
many. I remember in one church just hugging people, and this one older
lady began weeping in joy as I shared about the love of God literally
swirled around her, and she could actually feel it. There was
breakthrough in that moment for the love of Jesus to come and invade her
situation. I remember sharing on "faith simplified" in a church and a
woman walking up to me almost in tears thanking me, because she didnt
know what faith looked like, and to know that faith was something
attainable, faith was something reachable, and wasnt some mystery, but a
simple act of yeilding to Jesus meant the world to her. I also find joy
in helping serve other ministers. Recently had the opportunity to serve a
well known prophet and was so blessed just to be able to lay my life down
low, to pray for her and serve her as she prophesied an amazing word for
this hour.
I was recently on the streets of San Francisco with a my friend
Tiffany, where we bumped into a homeless woman who looked as if she was
in a frenzy...shouting and screaming about something or a rather, lol.
Needless to say she was making a scene on this busy day in the city of
Saint Francis. So we decided to walk up to her and tell her it was FREE
HUGS DAY and how much Jesus' loved her!!!! The lady just wept in our
arms...she shared her whole story with us, and so we prophesied over her,
prayed with her, and blessed her with some money to get a room and some
food for the night. You could see she was impacted through simple love. I
often say that I enjoy much more ministering out on the streets because
no one notices you, and there is no one to praise you for what you just
did...it is simply you being you and being a conduit of God's love. It is
simply amazing and I love it. It is incredible to watch God work miracles
and see how simple love changes everything.
I have been so blessed in the last couple of weeks in just loving the one
in front of me, sharing Jesus, sharing what He is saying...as well as
receiving His love. Oh to simply sit in His love, and to gaze into His
eyes...Often in this place I am wrecked, I am ruined by the sheer beauty
of Who He is. I am undone by the amazingness of His Glorious Being. Oh
how I long to walk in union with Him. To be one with Him always in my
goal in life. To know Him and the fullness of Who He is. To know His
length, and hight, and depth! To know I am His and He is mine. To walk in
the reality of that is what I attain to daily. I pray you would taste of
His wonders anew as I have.
Please pray for me, and for the support to come in as I prepare for my
next Asia tour this new year. I leave again for Asia with Iris Ministries
in the months of January and February. My desire is to return to Hong
Kong for a couple of days, then travel to Korea and India with Iris for
the remainder of the trip. I know part of the trip focus will be on the
prayer movement and a portion of the trip will be focused on work with
children at risk and orphans. I am extremely excited for this trip as it
will be a first for me traveling to South Korea and India. It is a double
honor for me, because I will get the chance to work alongside a dear
friend of mine within India who has been like a spiritual mom to me, as
well as reconnect with Iris Ministries. Please pray for this journey with
me for Papa to really break through, as well as for my support.
Thanks again for all of your prayer and support!!! It has been
incredible!!! Know that ALL things work together for OUR GOOD!
Much love in Jesus,
Daniel Black

upon you. For, behold, the darkness shall cover the earth, and thick
darkness the people: but the LORD shall arise upon you, and his glory
shall be seen upon you." (Isaiah 60:1-2 KJV)
