Breakthru_Event

The powerful Break Thru' Event
was kicked off with Mike and
Onalee Mitchell, Pastor John
Tweedie and Rick Tyler on tech.

Compelling, well known speakers shared via short video segments: Brett and Alex Harris
(Do Hard Things), Harvey Katz (Becoming a God Magnet), Faytene Kryskow (The Cry)

. . . and the worship was magnificent.

And, when those amazing jigs and reels began, the Spirit of
joy and freedom burst through and the people danced their worship
. . . all ages, spontaneously worshipping that audience of One.

He was on stage, and as he
spoke the atmosphere was
clean and clear. He told
about his past . . . the
boyhood depression - the
searching for purpose, the
questioning of why he was
born like this.

And there he was, upright and radiant, "Because God has a purpose
and a plan for my life, and that's my fire!"

Nick's message, his face, his eyes and his voice caught hold of us . . .
and quite suddenly 'hope' was born from it - a hope in God and His
fabulous plan to rescue us and save us and make each of us a part of
His 'Forever Family'.

Children came forward first - each one responding to Jesus Christ and
His call upon their lives . . . then youth and adults came, filling out
cards for Nick to follow up by e-mail. Then they wanted to speak with
Nick, to touch him."Give me a hug!" he'd say. God's Kingdom
exploded in magnificent power that night in Brantford . . . no one
needed to be left behind, because God showed up big time through a
man - born without limbs, who lives his life without limits!

Someone wrote to us: "I have been to many events of this kind, but
tonight I have seen God's glory!"

Nick went on to speak at three morning services next day (Sunday 16)
at Kennedy Road Tabernacle in Brampton reaching about 3,500 people. He was also
in Kitchener on Sunday night with 800.

In all, that weekend, Nick spoke personally to over 6,000 - when God released well
over 300 into His Kingdom and many more to recommit their lives to Him.

Amen

And then Nick was down flat on his face with no leverage to rise.
"And what do you do when you fall?" he asks us, "When your
plans and your hope are shattered? You make a decision to get
up again despite your feelings and your circumstance . . .
you get back up."
