As I lay on the grass overlooking my sweet Romanian Village, Viili Teeci, God was speaking to me:
“Go swift messengers, To a people tall and smooth skinned, to a people feared far and wide,
an aggressive nation of strange speech, whose land is divided be rivers.”
Isaiah 18:2b
Under this verse, in my journal scribbles, are the words written Croatia. Through this time of prayer, I also felt Goid had given me a supernatural physical hunger. “Could that mean the country of Hungary God?” The country of Egypt still kept coming into my mind. “God, if you have already closed the doors to this country, why do I keep getting this?” I wasn’t sure what any of this meant, but now I am seeing how God is peicing it all together.
After leaving Romania, our next scheduled country was to be Egypt. Going to Egypt fell through, however, and instead the month of October was devoted to Asking the Lord where He wanted us to be. For three days my team and I prayed earnestly, Asking the Lord what country HE wanted us in since He had closed the door for us to go to Egypt. None of us spoke to each other at all as to where we felt God was telling us to go. We would all just pray individually and then write down what He was telling us in our journals. On the third day we had a meeting to share what we had heard.
Croatia and Hungary as well as Egypt were common countries shared. Also Children in bondage, Rome Italy, Angels and the colors blue and red. After a week or so had passed, AIM told us that the countries K squad was going to were Hungary, Croatia, and Serbia. God was giving us confirmation that we had heard correctly. After more prayer, we felt God further calling us as a team to Croatia.
We are on a train now headed to Croatia with no exact ideas as to what we will be doing or where we will be staying. In a matter of hours we will be arriving in a new place with God as our leader. We are pioneers headed for a new land. We are Paul and Silas, headed on a missionary journey to lands unknown. We are “Swift messengers, going to a people tall and smooth skinned.”
…As to further praying about Egypt, I felt God saying that where we would be going, people are in bondage, much like the children of Israel. We are coming to set them free through the blood of Jesus.
…As to Angels, the country of Croatia “just happens” to be formed in the shape of angel wings.
…The colors Blue and red also “just happen” to be the colors of the Croatian flag.
…And on our journey so far from Romania to Croatia, we have “just happned” to have stayed the last two days in Hungary.
As our journey continues to unwind, I fully believe that God will continue to show us how these “just happenings,” are infact, His Divine intervention.
