A lot of time has gone by since the last post. Now and then I thought of writing a new one and this one has been sitting here for a month now, but it's okay. I think this is a good time to write two or three posts.
The last two months have been very different than the first.. Things have changed; whereas we went to the streets daily in the beginning and had many testimonies of healing, repentance and some baptisms, we then came to a time of focusing on holiness and truth.
For me it started when I was in Aarhus for the second time. The last post I wrote was 2 days before we went over there. The first day on the street was very strange; no one wanted to talk to us, people were rude, no one we prayed for got healed and to top it off one man that was healed the time before, even said he had pain again. We said to each other: "what is going on?"
We went somewhere quite to pray and then talked about what could be hindering us; then we repented of some things God showed us and we gave the time in Aarhus to God. Amazingly, when we got up to try again, people were open, got healed and when we met the man I mentioned, his pain was totally gone again.

At the same time, God was working this same thing of repentance in the people back in Aalborg. And for some weeks hardly anyone could go to the streets. We all needed time to let God show us our hearts; to learn that it is not about the signs and wonders and nice testimonies of what we do, but about knowing Him who is the Truth and knowing who we are in Him.
This is the Gospel, like I wrote in an earlier post. Initially you repent, get baptized and receive the Holy Spirit. The continuation of this is to repent constantly of every lie you believe in, all wrong understanding, all lack of love and all other sin. You choose to die to yourself and align yourself with the Truth and the Life. I'm not saying I have checked this off the list and am now completely perfect. I wish. It's a daily choice, the Bible calls it "putting on the new self", "renewing your mind" and "fixing your eyes on Jesus". That's what I want to write about in the next post. Salvation is not a one-prayer-deal, we live it out all the days of our life until that day; when we see Jesus face to face and know fully who He is and who we are. (1 Cor 13:12)
