#15 Fort Lauderdale, May 15

#15 Fort Lauderdale, May 15 at Hugh Birch State park (intracoastal & beach)

Sally chose this STRATEGIC LOCATION – The Intracoastal Waterway is a 3,000-mile inland waterway along the Atlantic and Gulf of Mexico coasts of the United States, running from Massachusetts southward along the Atlantic Seaboard and around the southern tip of Florida, then following the Gulf Coast to Brownsville, Texas.

Cheryl, Richard and Carol joined in and they had just been with us 2 days before in Miami. It was a first where intercessors from the previous gateway came along to the next. How awesome is that.

Rick rejoined us again  YAY!! We processed with the cross down the road along the intracoastal as we said the declarations.

Richard and Richard shared communion – one the bread the other the “wine”.

Cheryl blew the shofar and the sound went right through us and sailed out over the waters changing the atmosphere.

Sally sang a song her husband had written, “Hallelujah Day”.

We sang back and forth into each other’s eyes, oh valley be raised up oh mountain be made low…

Beautiful worship – GLORY boat went by as we worshiped ; )

Cheryl had a vision that 3 tower like structures crumbled down during the worship.

God bless Ft. Lauderdale harbors and Florida intracoastal waterways.

#14 Miami Harbors, May 13

#14 Miami Harbors/ North Miami, May 13

Miami harbors fell on statewide declarations day and the intention was over Israel.

What an amazing group. Doreen and I got to have long lunch with Cheryl the day before, hear her and Richard’s REMARKABLE testimony that should be made into a movie! We fell in love with her right away. It was so good to connect before the event.

Then that night Doreen and I went down to the harbor park walked, prayed and sang for an hour or so. Always love to have extra time in the location. Met with intercessors in the morning – what a deep level of faith, such a flow of sharing. The unity was so real as prophetic words flowing from everyone.  One word building upon another. Pastors David and Richard co led communion in true unity – like brothers. Then we went out to worship and Oh my goodness… wow. Cheryl brought stones and scripture sticks to be buried and thrown into the water. There was Powerful breakthrough (she will share in the comments below).

When we share communion and the declarations it feels like this knitting together, the unity of hearts and voices is so beautiful and full of love, and then we go out lift our eyes to the heavens, the music soars, there are no walls to contend with or contain our worship and the freedom expands in our hearts, and explodes over the waters, into the sky and beyond. The JOY and the GLORY wash over everything as we move as one.

We all really felt the unity. Pastor David said he experienced the Body of Christ in a way he had not felt before. The Body of Christ…

Doreen and others shared Jesus with a man in the parking lot before worship and after on our way to breakfast, he called Cheryl (she gave her number to him saying she had a job connection for him) and she led him to Christ! Salvation in Miami harbors. AMEN AMEN.

I also got to witness to a Jewish woman and prayed over her injured child on Israel declarations day! I asked if she knew Jesus and she said I’m Jewish, and I replied, He is YOUR savior. She said you are so sweet. Oh what a response! We were interrupted by an overseas phone call … hmmm. But she assured me she would pray and ask the Lord to reveal Himself. AMEN.

God bless Miami harbors.

#13 Key Largo, May 11

#13 Key Largo, May 11 at Snooks Sunset Restaurant

What a night! We left Key West and headed for Key Largo hoping to get there by sunset. We had tried to arrange meeting with intercessors but they could not come. God’s Grace was upon us as there was no traffic all the way. Once we got to the key we raced around a bit to find a beach or lookout point… finally just in time we saw a tiny sign to an obscure road to Snooks Sunset Restaurant. Wow- a BEAUTIFUL romantic setting. The Lord ministered to Doreen and I so sweetly – though our intention was to meet up with others, it turned out to be such an unforgettable GIFT, like finding an unexpected treasure we would never even dream of asking for. The music was outstanding, the food, the glorious lingering sunset and the balmy air.

We read the declarations over the waters, had communion and we did witness and have wonderful conversation with lovely German woman sitting next us. We had to press on to Miami on as it got dark and as we were getting into the car I felt I had to worship with flags (I couldn’t leave out Key Largo) and took out the flags and went to a private beach right there next to the restaurant and we worshiped in silence under the twilight sky.

Later on we told Rick the roads we drove around on looking for the sunset view and it happened to be where his family had one owned land! Another unplanned God appointment – amazing.

The next morning bishop Keith of Key Largo called and we prayed together over the phone.  Next time we will meet in person.

God bless Key Largo.

#12 Key West, May 11

#12 Key West, May 11 – Mile Marker Zero & Mallory Square

Keena and Kelly met us in Key West & we celebrated Keena’s birthday there! Such a joy to all be together. Very important sequence to note that Keena had accomplished the I95 assignment December 2022, passing the declarations baton form Miami to Maine, and she said it was strategic for her to declare and worship at THIS gateway Mile Marker Zero that connects to I95 and all the way up the east coast. A divine birthday connection for sure.

The wind carried the presence at Mile Marker ZERO “southernmost point in the continental U.S, the lowest latitude land of contiguous North American states.” Powerful anointing. At the line, “breaking past the borderlines of space” a naval jet went right over us. We also stopped at the naval base to pray over the gateway.

Key West has an important strategic history, one aspect being that it has been a safe harbor for Jews immigrating from Cuba. Here is a quote from Chuck Pierce 2020, ” the Lord said you had six years to gather the keys out of the keys. That told me there’s going to be a move of God all the way from the keys to that cloud I showed you (Ga Line) This backbone is going all the way up the east coast. And cause a new strength to come to our nation,” On May 11 we came here – Ken Malone and intercessor team arrived one week later – as the Lord led, not knowing our schedule… Only God can do such a thing. Katherine said, “I found the Keys was a multi-level assignment dealing with many different fronts. The worship @ the harbors opened the door and set the stage for discernment and victory for the rest of the team.

As we entered Mallory Square – I had the thought Mile Marker Zero was governmental and Mallory Square is for the people. Very hot. Doreen and I spent time before worshiping under the pavilion before the others joined us. When Lydia arrived we fell in love with her as she walked across the parking lot. She spread her arms out and said. “my people are here”. Her passion for her gateway was outstanding. She prayed with such zeal and love for her harbor, land and people – we could feel she was covenanted with God to Key West.

Lydia offered Keena and Kelly a ride to the boat and I went to the car to get their stuff and see them off, as I looked back at the pavilion I saw Doreen talking to a young man and said “Doreen is witnessing!” As the others drove away, I walked up and joined the moment. I have never seen anything like it – it was as if the heart of God was pouring through Doreen’s eyes and her words into Andrews heart. She led this Jewish young man in the prayer for salvation as he cried with repentance and joy. It was amazing. Salvation in Key West! Very significant that he was also Jewish. When we called Lydia to tell her, she said that was unheard of in Mallory Square. Praise God.

#11 Chocoloskee Bay / Marco Island May 9

#11 Chocoloskee Bay at Marco Island beach, May 9

Nicole and children.  I have been struggling with words for this one because I was, and am, so moved. So wonderful to have children with us – love intergenerational worship.

We began with Rick and Doreen under a shady tree sharing stories from the road and missions with the cross, declarations and communion. Nicole prayed over her region with prophetic passion.  Then we all walked out in the blazing sun to the glorious beach.

Nicole is such a deep intercessor and worshiper. She had never used flags before, nor the children – and to behold their freedom as they danced, oh my. The location was just spectacular – super clear blue green water. Yummy day. SO BEAUTIFUL to worship with Nicole who wanted to keep going, to press in deeper and deeper, so immersed in the presence – not wanting to leave. It was “beyond” once again. It was so delightful as we kept on worshiping the children played in the water. What a gift – can’t wait to return.

God bless Marco Island and the Chocoloskee Bay.

After this, Rick decided to stay at camp and meet up with us again in Ft. Lauderdale – so Doreen and I continued on our way and we stopped and prayed at Everglade City and Chocoloskee Island, then on to Key West.

#10 Fort Myers, May 8

#10 Fort Myers, May 8 at Centenial Park

BIG group! They have been interceding together over the city for many years and it is such a blessing to feel the difference, the unity and  the power of a group that is covenanted to the land. Bless you team Ft. Myers for your faithfulness! In the beginning Janice shared her vision of angel armies over the waters…

Doreen sang with guitar, I just want to speak the name of Jesus. I have never ever seen her so free! She was so unselfconscious.

I was so happy and surprised to see Linda who zoomed here from Winter Garden event (I had just seen her there) what a great blessing. Love Linda! She shared with me a revelation that intercessors had been praying over the LAND for years, Prayerlink speaking out declarations into the AIR and now we were worshiping over the WATER. Air, Land, Water. Wow. I hope she will add comment also.

Amazing passionate worship – so many flags. The GLORY and unspeakable joy came upon us all. Afterwards Verna shared that she saw a some demonic thing raise its head out of the waters, then retreat and then drown.  Her husband confirmed feeling some stronghold being broken at the same time she had her vision. I hope they will add comment also.

Rick’s cousin Andy and his wife Julie came, worshiped and reconnected with him. Special moment when the two men raised the cross together over Ft. Myers harbor. Its amazing how God is bring connections together.

Verna gave me a Florida seal state flag that has been prayed over for 10 years! I am so grateful.

Passers by – Steve came out to jog and he FELT the glory in our direction, followed the Holy Spirit and then saw us and joined in worship with us with flags. Obella another passerby talked to Melanie, Doreen’s childhood friend and our host, looking for a church – got to connect her with Verna’s group.

We got to pray over Melanie (our host where we parked the RV) who has suffered all her life with scoliosis and she was a new person in the morning. She said she slept without waking from pain and continued to feel better in the coming days.

After everyone left as Rick was tying up the cross Doreen and I sang under the pavilion as twilight fell. It was like a heavenly movie – surreal in beauty, sound and presence.

Mighty blessings over Ft. Myers Harbor.

#9 Charlotte Harbor, May 5

#9 Charlotte Harbor, May 5 at Gilchrist Park

Beautiful Team Charlotte! This is the first group I began sharing this 22 harbors assignment with back in November 2022. I really didn’t know how to begin and the LORD says “Follow the Love”. And so this group, these 4 couples have been meeting together for years and go to my home church, Victory. Oh my goodness the incredible unity. I just LOVE them. It was so powerful to join with them on the journey.

How to I even begin.. we spoke out the declarations, everyone prayed out spontaneously and shared hearts for God and the land –   Rick led communion, and then we worshiped. Jeff jumped up on the sea wall, the joy and freedom spilled out over the harbor, dolphins came in began to play. It was amazing. We prayed over a woman who came and sat at our table. A young man joined in as well and he was a believer. One of the women said it was one of the best days of her life. Unity. We moved in unity. This is what God is doing. This is His heart.

We have had several occasions worshiping together inside and out over the waterways and all. Love you so much TEAM Charlotte! And thank you for your continued encouragement, unity and faithfulness.

God bless Charlotte Harbor.

#8 Sarasota Bay, May 4

#8 Sarasota Bay, May 4 at Bayfront Park

Sarasota Bay falls on National Day of Prayer! Wow. There is a lot going on in town. several who said they would come had other prayer commitments. So we’re small but mighty. This is my home . I love this harbor and have spent many hours here enjoying the beauty and praying over the city. My husband Greg and I began this harbors ministry together the night before storm Ian.

I felt the Lord say for Rick to carry the cross around the Bayfront walkway. It was so awesome we ministered, witnessed and prayed with people all along the walk. The cross drew many people to talk to Rick and us. It was unique in this 22 journey. We paused overlooking the west to declare the Word, worship and have communion. When we did the declarations I felt the power, an increase of voltage like I had not felt during the declarations before. Rick felt the same thing… it was so anointed and caused us to wonder as it felt different.  Glory came down . Chris Vercelli who ministers in this gateway weekly for years- so powerful to have him with us, or rather for us to join him! He led the communion. I have had the great honor to sing at some of his outdoor outreach events. This may well be where God began to place the worship at the waters in my heart. Bless you, Chris!

Jeanne dear friend, so glad she came along side blessing the bay. And Mary really surprised me telling me she had been leading teams out on Anna Maria Island. She said God spoke to her when she heard about this worship in the gateways and knew right away it was for her. AMEN! So beautiful to worship with these prayer warriors.

We spent hours there completing the circle visiting with so many along the way. There was overshadowing joy- I mean really glorious. Again lingering on after the “event” we got to share the Lord with several people. We were there til sundown.

Doreen and I also prayer walked Siesta Beach in the glorious sunset.

Mighty blessings over Sarasota!

#7 Tampa Bay / Skyway South Pier May 3

#7 Tampa Bay at the Skyway South Pier, & Ballast Point Pier May 3

Such a huge Harbor with many ports within and many different concerns to pray for. The location at the south pier of the Skyway is truly the gateway to this this massive bay we can see the Skyway, Tampa, and Port Manatee known for human trafficking. Intercessor Mary prayed several locations on the north side including Ballast Pier, shipping channel and cruise port  –  at the same time we were out, which is a great strategic placement for a large gateway. Also intercessor Nancy gathered a team praying as we were out. Powerful.  This is one of the locations we could really feel the weight of the battle and many who had intended to be there were kept away by serious interference from the enemy. Keena was the only one to join us at the South Pier. One intercessor told her that as the state leader it was powerful for her to be at Tampa Bay, and we definitely felt that too.

After the event (declarations, communion and worship) – Rick, Doreen and I all felt that we were not done. We also felt we should move to the other side, the other picnic table… Doreen and I sang for another hour or so, a couple lingered there eating lunch and thanked us for the music. As Rick was putting his cross on the top on the car (it was packed in the ski bag) with just the one wheel sticking out and a man passing by asked -what is that wheel? Well, Rick got to share the gospel with him. he ended up cancelling a meeting to stay and talk, we prayed over him for healing of a very difficult personal tragedy. He cried and over and over said he felt different… we kept talking and Doreen pressed in and asked if he had ever received Jesus. He said no, she asked if he wanted to pray to receive and he said YES. He was Muslim who had joined a Protestant church in order to marry his wife. We prayed with him to receive Christ and he wept. It was so awesome and the first salvation of the 22  gateways journey – HalleluYAH!

Mighty blessings over Tampa Bay!

#6 Hudson Harbor, April 27

#6 Hudson Harbor at Hudson Beach, April 27

Doreen and I went to Hudson beach hours Before the event and chose a place under a pavilion and worshiped there until Rick, Jennifer and Keena arrived. We really felt the power and the rest, having time in the space to pray before the event.

For me it was AMAZING to be with Doreen & Rick my long time dearest friends and singing/evangelical partners, AND Jennifer my first friend from Florida and dancing buddy AND big plus Keena first friend I made after I moved to Florida and ministry connection… PrayerLink connection! This was Keena’s first event with us and it felt so deeply powerful after all we had been though to be out there worshiping under the sky and as this gateways assignment would not have happened without Keena – love you!! Very personal for me, like all my worlds coming together in Hudson, and so interesting that this location and gathering was unintentional on my part.

I had accidentally had circled Hudson way back before I got my map and had a chart of 69 harbors. I wondered how that happened and was going to correct it, but the Lord said it was His doing and not a mistake. I did not understand until I was there in Hudson looking at the map on my phone that the highway 19 bends out to the coast at Hudson and that is where “civilization” begins. Amazing.

Had someone more local stepped forward I might not have reached out to Jennifer with the zeal that I did. She danced with such grace and freedom. I’m so grateful she came and worshiped with us. Love you!

God is building something between us all as we come into unity in our positions.

As Rick led communion and Doreen led worship, people from several different countries stopped by to join in and some lingered with us. It was really beautiful. The location was perfect for passers by. We all went to the water during Yours is the Kingdom (to the wall) and and Rick stood with the cross lifted up, a striking call to the hearts of men. The cross draws many people to stop and talk. One man asked to try a flag! It was so beautiful, so joyful and powerful. I cant imagine this trip without Doreen and Rick.

Mighty blessings over Hudson Harbor. There was a fierce rain on the way home.
