Living Waters has a new home!

On Dec. 30 Lee and I ministered to a couple who gave a donation into Living Waters for $1,000 with a written prophetic word for the ministry. They wrote on the check “seed.” We received the check with grateful hearts, but we knew this was no ordinary check. It was a “seed” to be planted where God said to plant it. We felt a huge weight of responsibility to hear God and be faithful with this precious “seed”. On Friday we ministered to this same couple again. By Friday night a huge breakthrough occurred and on Saturday when our ministry time was over this couple gave another donation of $2,000 into Living Waters and wrote “seed” on the check. We were so thankful, but a little overwhelmed now with the responsibility of planting this “seed”. Lee and I continued to pray that the Lord would show us where He wanted the “seed” planted.

On Tuesday of the next week Jon, our son-in-law, told us that the unfinished Lodge that we had looked at in 2008 was still available and reduced in price. This property included the unfinished 7500 sq. ft. Lodge, an office building, another shop/garden building, and 18 acres. The asking price was close to $350,000 and the property is worth much more than that. Lee and I and the family prayed and agreed that we were to move on this property. I had received a word from one of our intercessors several weeks before that now confirmed this was where we were to plant the “seed.”

By faith we planted the “seed” and made an offer of $300,000.00 for the Lodge. The offer was accepted on Friday morning 1/9/09 and we were given 30 days to come up with 30,000 as a down payment.

As soon as the first “seed” was planted all the other “seed” needed for the down payment began to be pledged, like water, it poured in. By that same Friday evening, the first $30,000 had been pledged.

By Friday 1/16/09, $17,850.00 came in towards the $30,000.00 down payment.  An exciting thing we are hearing is that blessings are flowing to those who have pledged to support this project. One person described it as a flow from the anointing of what God is doing in Living Waters ministry that is now flowing into their family.

By our closing date February 4, 2009 all the money needed for the down payment came in.  We have purchased the property and have begun the work.

Watch and see what the Lord has done and is continuing to do!

Love and blessings,

Lee and Denise
