S5E9 On-the-road Update from Romania

February 29, 2024 • Ken Fish, Grant Pemberton • Micah 4:4

Give

This week, Grant interviews Ken about his current ministry trip to Romania. The team's scheduled R&R was canceled due to the need for ministry time, and each prayer ministry session ranged from two to five hours long for the investment into the lives of others. Ken and Grant discuss the structure of an Orbis Ministries trip because rather than being mini-vacations, they are actual working trips, albeit with a bit of sightseeing thrown in.

We long for your Faith to be encouraged and the fire of the Holy Spirit to ignite in your life by hearing these testimonies. We look forward to what God has in store for all of us living and working in His Kingdom as we prove to our world that "God is not a Theory."

"Effective prayer takes time" - Grant Pemberton

"Most thinking Christians should be radically opposed to communism. It does nothing but enslave and impoverish people. Furthermore, it bankrupts people morally and spiritually" - Ken Fish

BOOK SUGGESTION: Capitalism and Freedom by Milton Friedman

BOOK SUGGESTION: Leviathan by Thomas Hobbes

"…but they shall sit every man under his vine and under his fig tree, and no one shall make them afraid, for the mouth of the Lord of hosts has spoken." Micah 4:4

"A government big enough to give you everything you want, is a government big enough to take away everything that you have." – attributed occasionally to Thomas Jefferson, Benjamin Franklin, and others

"I don't endorse the concept of self-deliverance. There are times of sovereign deliverance when the Spirit of God comes on people and sets them free of demons. This does happen but is not the norm." - Ken Fish

The biblical model for deliverance is Jesus or one of the disciples casting demons out of people. There is no place in the scriptures - not a single place where it says, 'Go cast demons out of yourself' or 'Teach others how to cast demons out of themselves.' " - Ken Fish

I was immediately standing next to Jesus and in His presence.” - Ed Loughran “When I died, I only remember my encounter in heaven, but the testimony from my kids about my wife that she was going after it in prayer. She was taking on the enemy and the spirit of death. She was ferocious.” - Ed Loughran “A type of confidence and boldness comes with the gift of Faith.” - Ken Fish. “I would instead be embarrassed for a little while, and God release the gift session.” - Ed Loughran “If you go after the kingdom of God, there are ways in which God brings humility.” - Ed Loughran “I don't want the church domesticated.” - Ed Loughran “What would happen if the church didn't want to live for the esteem and approval of men?” - Ed Loughran “Sometimes, faith is a little bit brash, a bit gutsy, and bold. We're talking about a level of assertive faith.” - Ken Fish “We often settle for lesser things because we are unwilling to take significant risks.” - Ed Loughran “I would instead look foolish and see the power of God come.” - Ed Loughran “It was just me and Jesus. The colors were almost alive. The colors had flavor and feel.” - Ed Loughran “Language is symbolic logic.” - Ken Fish “We need to be less impressed with how wide the church can go and more focused on how many generations we can impact.” - Ed Loughran “I want to do those things that would make the world poorer if I didn't do them.” - Ed Loughran “Jesus is worth dying for.” - Ed Loughran “Courage is costly.” - Ed Loughran
