In Germany, multiple 3/3rds groups are meeting in their homes and one group has been meeting in a pub to share with others seeking the Kingdom. These teams have been spending time prayer walking as well and are seeing more people accepting Jesus as King. Will you keep these groups in your prayers? Learn more at hubs.la/Q01HRCFP0
The Lord is moving in Germany. After seeing heroin addicts open their hearts to Jesus in December, we now have a growing team in the harvest. People are learning that we need one another on this mission and are joining together to see souls reached for Jesus Christ! Learn more about this work in Europe at hubs.la/Q01HRpzR0
We received this great update from Europe:

"Just finished the most amazing weekend of training in Copenhagen. Probably the best and most promising training in Denmark so far. Everyone were so receptive and are so excited to get started. Finished the visit today with a half day of strategizing with the local leader couple. They are planning on starting three Groups to get started. Please pray for courage and persistence as they begin to implement." Learn more at hubs.ly/Q01HwkPk0
As each of us practitioners know, listening to God through the Holy Spirit is a critical element to any disciple making movement and therefore we have taught this concept many times in our own communities and around the world. It is a vital component to a 3/3 group, it is an element in the 1 hour prayer wheel, and it is important to any prayer walk.
.
Even so, it is highly beneficial if we press into this even harder during our personal prayer time and even throughout our daily activities. Because, what if the strength of our relationship with the Lord depended on it? Perhaps you have never thought of it that way. Think about the strongest relationships in your life. There is no doubt that those relationships have been forged in part through lots of time in conversation. It is through both speaking and listening that your relationships have grown strong. Not surprisingly, the same is true of our relationship with the Lord.

One thing is certain, God desires to speak to us even more than we desire to listen to him. Throughout the scriptures, God “speaks” to his people in a variety of ways...
• a particular scripture coming to mind (Acts 1:20; Acts 13:16)
• a picture or vision (Acts 10:11-17; Acts 16:9-10)
• a dream (Daniel 4:4-17; Daniel 7:1-14)
• an interpretation of a dream or vision (Daniel 4:18-27; Daniel 7:15-27)
• a picture or impression of a word (Acts 10:3)
• a sensation or pain in one’s body (Acts 9:8-9)
• a spiritual song (Acts 16:25; Ephesians 5:19)
• divinely sent messengers or angels (Acts 1:9-11; Acts 8:26) (Philip is told to go south to Gaza—that’s all—but along the way he bumps into a seeker, and it’s obvious to Philip this is the
reason he was told to come.)
• signs and wonders (Luke 23:44-45; Acts 5:18-21; Acts 9:36-42; Acts 12:6-11)
• restriction of movement and speech (Acts 16:6-8)
.
God is not limited in His ability to “speak” to us. He has even been known to use an ass (Numbers 22:21-39). The question is... “Are we willing and ready to listen?” Learn more at hubs.la/Q01GNMRY0
We recently began praying for a team member who would spend time in his home country of Denmark to follow up with those he previously trained, providing training to new contacts, and looking for additional persons of peace. The Lord is answering our prayers in powerful ways. He sent us this update a few days ago...

"Met this Pastor of peace while in Denmark. He is pastor of an International Apostolic Church. He is very interested and eager to learn how to multiply disciples and groups. I will be speaking at his church where he wants me to share about the importance of discipleship and community. Next week he wants me to meet with some of his leaders and cast vision for them. He is very eager to receive training and coaching. Please pray for the sharing and vision time!" Will you pray for this time? Visit hubs.la/Q01GQbVb0 for more info.
