I attended my first Louisiana Outpouring at the Harbor Center in Slidell with my brother, Rodney. I attended on his recommendation that the Holy Spirit would be present. We arrived at 9 a.m. so Rod could pray for the service. I decided to join the people praying. I walked the aisle's praying for 45 min. and then I saw it:;
THE VISION
A hole opened in the corner of the room. Angels were pouring in, the first one said " They were summoned there and were ready for their assignments ". The angels were so excited for the opportunity to join us in praising the Lord Jesus. They poured through the hole and sat in the rafters in the ceiling, waiting.
The joy and laughter of the angels made me laugh also. I stood under the hole hoping some angel dust would fall on me, but it did not.
HEALING
I attended the service to stand in proxy for two of my grandsons: a 16 year old, who is adopted, has various mental disorders, the other is 10 years old who as Autism. I am desperate to receive a word from the Lord concerning healing for the boys. I have prayed from 10 - 16 years for healings, but to no avail. I took photographs of the boys and waved them before the Lord to remind Him of his word; " He sent His Word and Healed them ALL'. Marc and Alan are part of them all. Pastor Bradford and Pastor Ralph prayed for the boys for which I am so grateful.
For three years I have suffered from Arthritis in both hips. It caused pain, stiffness and greatly reduced my quality of life.
Brother Sergio called for people with back problems and mental disorders. I went up in proxy for my grandsons. Brother Sergio touched my head and it was like a hurricane wind knocked me to the floor. On another altar call I went in proxy, again. Dr. Remedios walked passed me and gently blew on me and again I went down.
For two days after the services I bask in the glow of the Holy Spirit. When I came out of the Spirit I realized I was pain free in the hips. I am able to do normal activity now that I was not able to do before.
I sought the Lord for healing for my grandsons and instead He blessed me with a healing. Praise be to God.
Yours in Christ,
Barbara DeRoche
P.S.
Whoever reads this, please pray for Marc and Alan.

Dear Dr. Remedios,
Ilse Botha asked me to send you this testimony. Well right after I came back to
South-Africa from the Louisiana Outpouring. I went to visit some of my friends.
Now, we only visited. We didn't even speak about God. Her father is not saved
and is an alcoholic. So when I left, her father turned to his wife and said,
"I believe there must be a God. I haven't met Him yet but there is something
different about Mattie and I want what she has." He also said he wants to be
baptized and get his life right with God. Isn't that awesome!
The Louisiana Outpouring has truly changed my life and my ministry. I want to
thank you for being obedient to the voice of God and being faithful in running
with the fire of God. It is definitely spreading all over the world as a result
of you obedience.
Hope all is well with you and your family and I'm looking forward to seeing you
again when I come to the States.
How are things going in your church? Have you found some ground yet to build? Here
at Lofdal International God is also moving mightily in our services and there is
tremendous growth taking place as a result of Gods presence in our midst. The
Bible school has also expanded to 104 students this year. I believe God is calling
for leaders that will respond to the call of God on their lives, as the harvest
are ripe but the laborers are few.
Yours in His service,
Mattie Livesey

Dear Dr. David,
We just wanted to take a few minutes to share with you what has happened since
we were at the Louisiana Outpouring...
We have been missionaries in Haiti since 1982 and needed a time of refreshing.
Anton Botha invited us to the Louisiana Outpouring and we will never be the same!
After the conference, we attended your church and you called us to the platform
and prayed for us. When you laid hands on us, you said something like "...and
now, Lord, send it on to Haiti." We later learned that, at that very moment, 4
different individuals walking by our church in Carrefour, Haiti, came into the
church and found themselves at the altar, giving their lives to Jesus, during
praise and worship!
Since we returned, the FIRE of God has fallen during our services. Haiti has
never seen anything like this before. We have been in some powerful services,
but nothing like this before. Many people are being delivered in their seats,
shaking under the power of God. Hundreds more have come forward and, with no
one touching them, have been 'bolted' to the floor as God cleans them up.
People are coming from all parts of the city to find God! Many are being saved,
healed and delivered from demons! We have never experienced the presence of God
like this before. We believe this is the beginning of what we have carried in
our hearts for over 20 years. God is about to do something SO BIG in the Church
in Haiti that it will literally impact the world!
This morning a young Haitian man came to us who was on his way to pastor a church
in the countryside. Last night, he had a dream and the Holy Spirit asked him,
"Do you want money or do you want My power?" He said "I want power." The Spirit
then said, "Well, then, stay in this church because I'm about to pour out my power
like on the Day of Pentecost." He came this morning to say he was turning down
a job to pastor and was going to stay and let God do in him what He wanted to do.
You must realize that in Haiti, where the average income is $400 per year per
family, when someone has an offer for any job, he takes it!!!
We just want to say 'THANK YOU" for so humbly pouring yourself out during the
conference and then on Sunday morning so that Haiti would also benefit from the
fire and glory of God. We are so grateful.
///Pastor Stewart Robinette - Calvary Temple, Church of the Harvest, Monroe, LA
I just wanted to let you know what a blessing this past week has been for my wife and me. God touch my life, gave me a new wineskin and filled me, and set me on fire for him. I truly believe my ministry was totally transformed by the power of God over these past three days as I soaked up the presence of the Lord through anointed worship and preaching.
I pastor a multi-cultural, multi-racial inner city missions church on the south side of Monroe, LA. When we returned to our church Sunday morning, my wife and I arrived an hour early to pray. During the service I shared with the congregation how God touched my life, the need for repentance, and how we are to have God's power and authority active in our lives. During the alter call, we had nine respond to God's salvation for their life. Glory to God!
As a pastor, I want to tell you "Thank you for your faithfulness, dedication and willingness to help bring revival to this state and nation."
We want to be part of what you are doing in prayer, fellowship and through monthly financial support of this ministry. We Love You!
///Ronald Lewis - Global Impact Ministries
My name is Ron Lewis. I have been greatly changed by the events that took
place at the Louisiana Outpouring Unity Service. Pastor Russell Cobb’s
message about resurrection power was excellent. It educated me about what
Jesus has done for us but also my responsibility to others and in using
the power God has given us.
I have been forever changed by this message and this experience. The
Louisiana Outpouring is more than just “church”, it is a life changing
event that I encourage everyone to get involved with.
///Jesse L. Bourgoyne
My name is Jesse L. Bourgoyne and I am the Senior Pastor of the Accountability
Church in Watson, La. I would like to share with you what the Louisiana
Outpouring has meant to our church.
The Spirit of God directed us to a regional meeting for Louisiana Outpouring.
We felt a confirmation in our spirit to unite with other believers that had
the same heartfelt desire as we did. To earnestly desire for the presence
of the Lord in our lives, to earnestly desire for souls to be added to the
Kingdom of God, not for the glory of man, but to the GLORY of OUR GOD. Not
for man to be lifted up, but for Christians to unite as his spirit empowers
us to do mighty miracles for HIS GLORY!
On January 6, 7, and 8th, all the intercessors of our church, and almost
all those in leadership including the associate pastors, their wives, youth
pastor, senior pastor and his wife attended the Louisiana Outpouring
crusade in Pineville, LA. Our church will never be the same. It was
wonderful to be associated with like minded believers that have a passion
and a zeal for souls, an emphasis on the presence and direction of the
Spirit of God in our lives, and the call for us to remain humble in spirit.
I have had the opportunity to visit the Toronto Blessing in the 80's, the
Brownsville Revival in the 90's, and now the Louisiana Outpouring at the
turn of our century. The same spirit that was present there is present
within this outpouring. The Lord has shown me that people from all over
the world will be coming to the Louisiana Outpouring and the powerful
anointing connected with it will infect numerous churches to the GLORY
OF OUR RISEN LORD!
