Sometimes it pays to listen.. and wait..

Yes. Many times we are in too much hurry for doing things for the Lord. Many times we get so frustrated about why things doesn´t seem to happen in our lives. Is this really true? Is there really a silence?

Bible says only once that there was silence in heaven. Im not sure of the context right now but anyhow. The point is that the Father is speaking and thats the place where he wants to bring us: The place where we can hear his voice. Yes he is happy that you want to do things for him and he is happy that you dream about doing great things, but did you notice that before anything gets big it first appears as small. Same in the natural than in the spirit. when you were born to this earth you were a small baby. Then you grew up and became mature. In spirit when you were born you were little child too and then became to grow up and you are still growing.

Now the seed of God that he wants to birth to earth through you is also very little at first and you need to feed it and water it that it becomes to grow. How do you do that? You don´t rush before the time even though you may see the thing in its full maturity in the spirit. You need to understand that you are not there yet. But you listen to the voice of the spirit how to take care of the thing that is growing inside of you. As he directs you then you move to that direction and do the things that he asks and so that life gets bigger and starts to get revealed little by little. If the life gets revealed too early its in the great danger so don´t you hurry! Once the word that is in you reaches the full maturity it will get revealed to the world and it will bring to pass the purpose for which it was sent!

So don´t hurry be patient. listen and wait.

Why revelation 7?

9 After these things I looked, and behold, a great multitude which no one could number, of all nations, tribes, peoples, and tongues, standing before the throne and before the Lamb, clothed with white robes, with palm branches in their hands, 10 and crying out with a loud voice, saying, “Salvation belongs to our God who sits on the throne, and to the Lamb!

These verses are from the book of Revelation chapter 7. Yes book of revelation is in the bible. It is not too difficult to understand what is this all about! Its our vision as we are the builders of the Kingdom of God. Builder needs to have some sort of vision what he/she is about to build and what its gonna look like in the end. We are here on this earth for the purpose! We are the builders of His Kingdom, We are building the city of God and we do it by his Word and by his Spirit! This city is not built of wood, steel or stones but its built of the people. Yes. The city of God will have people from all nations, tongues, and tribes. We´we got this clear picture in the bible how its gonna look like. So lets keep this vision before our eyes and lets do the work of the ministry. Every godly word we speak and every Godly action we make will help the vision to be fulfilled! That should get us exited! Im exited! Thats why I go into all the world and preach and teach. Thats why its my passion to make diciples. Its worth of something! I can see the picture! I have this vision. You can catch it also today. There is a meaning for your life. God is going to fill this earth with his glory and he is willing to do it through you and I. It couldn´t be any better! So lift your head, stand up and go for the harvest. Get yourself equipped if you feel like you lack something and go and fulfill your purpose in Jesus name! Be blessed.

Blessed time

Its been really blessed time in Australia. God is moving me to different places to minister to different people and also allowing me to receive lot of his goodness! We have seen the glory of God in action right here in Australia! So if you are Australian and your life is little bit dry and boring Im telling you that the glory is here in Australia and its available for you! Its the reality of Jesus! Actually its available for everybody in everywhere. All you have to do is to believe and receive! Don´t make it too complicated! Don´t make it to some 10 steps to glory practice! just start drinking in his goodness today! I promise you that you will never drink alcohol again after this experience! Yes! Jesus is real and you can experience him. He is not dead. You may say that you are not religious. I got good news for you! Neither is Jesus! He loves to hang out with non religious people and he stays away from places with religion. So its freedom in Jesus and bondage without him. So lets choose freedom! Lets choose Jesus!

Herra tekee uutta! The Lord is doing new things!

On ollut siunattua aikaa tämä alkukesä Suomessa. Kokouksia on pidetty eri paikkakunnilla. Viimeisimpänä Forssassa Jumalan Kirkkauden viikonloppu. Jumalan Kirkkaus ilmestyi ja ihmeitä tapahtui kiitos Jeesus!
Alkuperäinen suunnitelmani oli palata Venäjälle heinäkuun loppupuolella, mutta Herralla oli muuta mielessä ja hän päättikin lähettää minut Australiaan kesäksi. Sinne menen heinäkuun alussa ja viivyn vähintään 2 kuukautta. Kuitenkaan ei voi itse suunnitella liikaa, vaan luotetaan Pyhän Hengen johtoon! Täytyy elää virrassa. Oma järkeily ei saa aikaan mitään yliluonnollista! Olkaa siunatut Jeesuksen nimessä ja rukoilkaa puolestani ja työni puolesta!

This early summer has been blessed time in Finland, Theres been meetings in different cities. Last one was the weekend of Glory in Forssa. The Glory of God showed up and miracles took place thank you Jesus! My original plan was to return to Russia at the end of july but Lord had something different in store and he decided to send me to Australia for summer(its winter there though). I go there in the beginning of July and will stay at least two months. Of course I cant plan too much on my own but to trust in the leading of the Holy Spirit! We must live in the flow. Our own reasoning cant make anything supernatural to happen! Be blessed in the name of Jesus and pray for me and for my work!

Paljon tapahtuu kun evankeliumin asialla liikkuu! Tänne Priozerskiin on jo jonkin aikaa sitten avattu rehabilitaatiokeskus. Nyt muutaman mutkan kautta sain siitä tiedon ja menin tapaamaan väkeä siellä. Meistähän tulikin sitten ystäviä! Pidimme siellä kokouksenkin, jossa Jumala kosketti monia voimallisesti! Saimme joitakin todistuksia parantumisestakin jälleen. Rakastan tehdä työtä näiden nuorten parissa. Uskon, että heistä Jumala nostaa työmiehiä ja naisia tänne Venäjälle ja miksei muuallekin! There´s happening alot when we move with the gospel! They have opened some time ago rehabilitation center here in Priozersk. Now I got to hear about the place and I went to meet the people there and we became friends! We had meeting there and God touched many people powerful way! We had some testimonies about healing again. I love to work with these young people. I believe that God is raising up workers among them to Russia and why not to some other places also!

Vierailimme myös metsäpirtissä Sosnovon lähellä pastori Vladimirin kanssa. Sinne on ajatuksena saada syntymään jälleen seurakunta. Kokoukseen tuli kaksi ensikertalaista, joista toinen halusi tulla uskoon. Toinen oli luopunut ja halusi palata takaisin! Kiitos Jeesus! Hieno alku uudelle työlle! Eräs nainen todisti myös parantuneensa vatsavaivastaan! Pienestä alkaa usein Jumalan valtakunnan työ. En enää usko sellaiseen, että kun aikansa saarnaa pienille joukoille, niin saa suuret kuulijakunnat. Ei se minun mielestäni ole mikään huipentuma. Huippua on siellä missä Jeesus toimii. välillä se tarkoittaa että palvellaan pientä ryhmää ja sitten välillä taas isompaa. Parasta on se jos Jumala antaa meidän olla näkemässä, kuinka pienestä syntyy suurta. Vaikka joskus sitten saarnaisimmekin tuhansille, niin uskon että jos haluamme säilyttää pioneerihengen ja jatkaa matkaa eteenpäin palaamme jälleen alkupisteeseen! Tämän soisin jokaiselle, että saa käydä alkupisteen kautta kohti suurempia asioita! Muuten jää montaa hienoa kokemusta köyhemmäksi! We also visited Metsäpirtti near Sosnovo with pastor Vladimir. Theres a plan to start a church over there. To that meeting came two new people and one wanted to recieve Jesus as her Lord! Other one came back to Jesus after being fallen away from him. Thank you Jesus! Great beginning for new work! One woman also testified about being healed from her stomach! The work of the kingdom of God usually starts from little things. I dont really believe that after you preach first for little groups you will somehow magically get the multitudes. Thats not the ultimate goal in my thoughts. Its great to be where Jesus works. Some times it means that we have to serve a little group and at times bigger. Its the best if God allows us to see how small becomes big! Even if we some day preach to thousands I believe that if we want to continue in that pioneering spirit and go on we return to the beginning! I wish for everyone to experience coming through that start point because without we will lose many great experiences!

Jumala on ollut hyvä ja Motornajan ovi on pysynyt auki. Työ siellä on hyvin mielenkiintoista! Sen lisäksi käyn joka viikko myös Kaarlahdessa! Siellä on pieni uskovien ryhmä, jota evankelista Valentina johtaa. Nyt houkuttelemme mukaan uusia ihmisiä ja odotamme kasvua tuolle joukolle! Tässä on hyvä rukousaihe! Näissä kokouksissa on ollut mahtava Pyhän Hengen läsnäolo ja uskovat ovat saaneet nousta! God has been good so the door to Motornaja has remained open! The work over there is very interesting. Now i also go every week to Kaarlahti! There is little group of believers led by evangelist Valentina. No we call some new people in and we are waiting to see growing! In these meetings there has been great presence of the Holy Spirit and the believers has been built up!

Halleluja! Avasin tällaisen blogin, jossa voin julkaista edesottamuksiani lähetyskentällä, ja missä sitten liikunkin. Koko elämähän on lähetyskenttää tosin. Elämän tarkoitushan on ensin etsiä Jumalaa ja sitten kun hänet löytää, niin loistaa hänen kirkkauttaan pimeän maailman keskellä! Tämä on mielestäni aika kivaa!! Tällähetkellä olen Venäjällä ihmettelemässä, kuinka Jeesus toimii ja toimiihan hän!!
Motornajan kylässä aloitin tällaisia evankelioivia raamattukeskusteluja. Ennen olen siellä saarnannut naama punaisena, mutta nyt vaihdoin tyyliä ja tuntuu hedelmällisemmältä! Rukoillaan, että mahdollistuu pitää näitä keskusteluja joka viikko!

Hallelujah! I opened the blog where I can share about my work on missionfield  and whereever I move. Whole life is missonfield though. The meaning of life is to seek God and when he is found then to shine his glory in the middle of this dark world. For me its pretty fun. Right now I am in Russia wondering how Jesus works and he does! In the village of Motornaja I started this kind of evangelizing biblestudies. Before that I´ve been preaching there like a madman but I changed style abit and it feels more fruitfull! Lets pray that I got the possibility to hold these studies every week!
Vierailimme myös Rautun seurakunnassa hiljattain. Siellä olikin siunattu kokous. Erään naisen jalat paranivat kirkkauden ilmapiirissä tiedon sanan kautta ja lisäksi Henki kosketti monia voimakkaasti! Seurakuntaa herätellään Venäjällä! Täytyy tosin sanoa, että monet seurakunnat ovat jo melko hereillä. Kuitenkin työtä seurakunnan parissa on tehtävä, jos Jumala on siihen asettanut! Venäjä näkee vielä mahtavan Jumalan liikehdinnän!

We visited the church in Sosnovo couple days ago. It was very blessed meeting! One woman got healed from her legs in the atmosphere of glory through the word of knowledge and many were powerfully touched by the Spirit! Church is being awakened in Russia! I have to say that many churches are allready awakened. Still I have to work with churches when God has put me into doing that! Russia is still going to see the mighty move of god!
