Dear Free Indeed Intercessors,
Walking in Step with Holy Spirit for Washington State
In the renewed initiative focusing on Washington State, the Lord has directed me to participate primarily in the NE quadrant of the state (roughly the Inland NW) while relating to a few others as we stand together for the whole state.
As I focus my spiritual gaze at Spokane’s Inland Empire-Northwest and all of Washington State, I sense a spiritual vibrancy. This indicates, I believe, a spiritually healthier condition than I can see with my eyes or hear with my natural ears. So my anticipation level for what the Lord is doing at this time and the near future in Washington State is very high. God loves Washington State and its peoples. He wants the prayer his Son taught us to pray to be answered, that, “as it is in heaven, it will be right here and now in this State,” as well.
I believe there are people already prepared to be significant parts of God’s work in Washington, most of whom I probably don’t even know yet. So it’s a walk by faith, at rest, trusting in the Lord, staying in step with Holy Spirit that is required of me and everyone involved so that those called will be found and joined together for the work.
Would you be willing to bathe this initiative in prayer? Would you consider whether you might be called to participate or know of someone else to mention? I would be glad to hear from you.
Prayer Requests for December 2019
Please join in praying for the next month of life and ministry:
The big prayer request is for me, Daniel, is that I walk in the one “straight arrow” assigned focus for my life and ministry: a mighty unstoppable outpouring of the Holy Spirit that will produce the largest by far harvest of peoples the world has ever experienced through our Lord Jesus Christ to the glory of his and our Father throughout eternity.
For this to happen, I am to broadcast a glorious large “umbrella vision” of everything Holy Spirit is doing in the Inland Northwest to make us utterly radiant and transformed with our Lord Jesus Christ, so much so that every people group on planet Earth will be blessed by what he does here.
We trust in the Lord completely for everything, but we know that your prayers reach his ears and speed things forward. Thank you for praying for this big request.
December 2 – Riley and Anna Maria Wall visit with Daniel and Robby.
December 13 – Free Indeed Ministries Int’l team meeting.
December 18 – Spokane Tribe Elders Christmas dinner.
Answered Prayers for November 2019
Answers in italics.
Not Requested, but Answered
Our dear friend Mary Etta Miller of Eagle Valley near Libby MT breathed her last breath here on November 7th and is now at home with the Lord. We have known, loved and walked closely with Lloyd and Mary Etta Miller and their wonderful family, church and community of Amish for a number of years. Their ministry encompassed the United States and other nations as well. Robby and I were among the hundreds attending the funeral on November 16th, worshiping, proclaiming the resurrection of our Lord Jesus Christ and celebrating the life of his devoted follower, Mary Etta Miller. Between those two dates, a video was taken in the Miller home of the whole family, minus Mary Etta now, worshiping the Lord with all of their hearts, overcoming their exhaustion from the long battle and sadness at their loss to join in the heavenly worship around the throne. Lloyd keeps telling his children, “We will see your Mother again!”
November 5, Daniel will participate in a reconvening of a Washington State Gathering in Vantage WA seeking kingdom impact on behalf of our state. The meeting was well led by several, resulting in a strong re-start of this initiative which had been dormant since 2011. It was followed up with a video conference call of those willing to share a state-wide purview as well as their own quadrant and/or region, which was also positive. The building of relational equity among everyone was emphasized both times. I like focusing on the NE quadrant of the state (Inland NW) as well as standing together for the whole state.
November 6, is our Fairwood Park ll HOA Annual Meeting. Robby has been serving as Secretary on the board. It was an excellent, well-attended meeting in which Robby finished her term of secretary for the HOA. With the time that was freed up, Robby intends to start helping with the communications that go out from My Father’s House of Prayer for All Nations.
November 7, Daniel and Robby meet with our new friends from Germany, Tom and Inge Haase, who are starting a school in Spokane, the THS Academy. It was a wonderful meal and visit back and forth. We mutually encouraged each other.
November 14, Free Indeed Ministries Int’l team meeting. What a joyful surprise when Joel and LaRetta Endress brought their recently first-born son and came together as a family to the team meeting. Letty has wanted to be a part of the team, but couldn’t participate due to work. Thanks to maternity leave, Letty was a wonderful addition to the team and we all got to meet “Little Will.” We talked about the ongoing Spirit-led transition from some areas into those more specifically where Free Indeed is called to be involved now.
November 11-12, Daniel will present a seminar on “Securing the First Missionaries for Unengaged Peoples” at Great Northern University 2nd Annual Missions Conference. It was a vibrant missions conference throughout, especially the keynote speaker. It was a privilege and joy to be a part of it.
November 15-27, Our son-in-law Jamie Morrison will be in Rwanda with African Enterprise. Jamie is back home safely from a full itinerary of videography, international team meetings and new training for the AE mission outreaches.
November 20, Robby and Daniel will participate and serve at the Spokane Tribal Elders Thanksgiving Dinner in Wellpinit WA. It was a privilege to sit among the elders and encourage one of the pastors who serves them. Building trust takes a long time, but we sense an ever-increasing connection with the tribal members.
We are so grateful to have you standing with us in sustaining prayer. Much more happens because of your prayers than we can report. May your reward be great. We love and appreciate each of you so much!
Yours and Christ’s for a Spokane made radiant by the waves of God’s glory crashing over us that will, in turn, bless all the families and peoples of the earth,
Daniel and Robby Grether
