The largest Journey to the Heart we’ve ever had took off for the Northwoods this morning! Before departing, Mr. Gothard shared an exhortation to seek the Lord from Psalm 25. Pray that God would show more of Himself to each young lady on this Journey as they learn the fear of the Lord this week.
“The secret of the LORD is with them that fear him; and he will show them his covenant” (Psalm 25:14).

July 28th, 2009 at 10:20 am
That’s great! I’ll be praying for them too. I know God has good things in store! Even when we don’t always want those things right away, He has a way of blessing us and drawing us to himself. Looking forward to hear more!

God bless you girls with an incredible journey! I will be praying as well that God would meet with you this week. Looks like you have fantastic leaders, too!!! Can’t wait to hear what God will do…

I just received a quick update from one of the team leaders. She wrote, “Wow, God is working so strong and met us in our brokenness last night. Please keep praying, God is working so powerfully.” Praise the Lord!
July 28th, 2009 at 2:14 pm
Praise the Lord!!!! I will continue to pray for every girl to become broken before the Lord.

I prayed with two of the girls on my team to receive Christ yesterday! God is working. Keep praying for God to meet us and work mightily in our lives.

Robert, would it be possible to send out a list of first names before each journey to past attendees so we can pray for the girls by name?
July 30th, 2009 at 10:57 am
What a wonderful sight! Praise the LORD!
I am praying for you all-girls and leaders. (You have some wonderful, wonderful leaders there
) It has been encouraging already to read the reports. This is only the beginning. I pray the journey that you each have begun this week will continue at home.
May the LORD bless each of you as you delight in Him alone today.
“And it shall come to pass, if thou shalt hearken diligently unto the voice of the Lord thy God…the Lord thy God will set thee on high above all nations of the earth: And ALL THESE BLESSINGS shall come on thee, and OVERTAKE THEE, if thou shalt hearken unto the voice of the Lord thy God” (Deut. 28:1,2)

I just got a quick word from one of the leaders in the Northwoods: “Yesterday there were a lot of breakthroughs. We worked through forgiveness. Our team has definitely achieved one accord. Today we are fasting and I am praying that God speaks His love to each girl.”

@Hannah. Great idea! I will see if Laura can send this out today.
July 30th, 2009 at 2:00 pm
Thx Robert, I got it this morning and will be praying. I got the idea from Mr. Gothard as he said you all pray for the ATI families by name. I thought it would be more beneficial if we could pray for the girls and guys who go out by name. I apprecaite you doing this!

WOW – bigger than i thought!
I know a lot of theses girls!
Have been praying and waiting to talk to my cousins and see how it went!

Wow! We just finished a fantastic day of sessions with these wonderful young ladies who are set on seeking God with all their heart, soul, mind, and strength. What a blessing!!! Mr. Gothard, Bob Norvell, George Mattix and I had the privilege of calling the fathers of over fifty of these young ladies and having each one pray a blessing over their daughter for a special consecration.

Wow this journey has been amazing along with ALL 13 of us girls from New York I have experienced true one accord and we have never been closer than we are now! I love my team and hearing Bill Gothard, Bob Norvell, and Paul Washer was the most powerfull thing I have ever experienced in my life
August 4th, 2009 at 8:01 am
