Hundreds Weeping in His Presence, Mexico City

4/8/2017

 
Our hearts were overawed as we witnessed hundreds of people weeping in the very Presence of the Holy Spirit tonight at a church in Mexico City!  Scott preached on the Loving Father from Luke 15 and we sensed divine attentiveness in the crowd.  Although it was the very first time the interpreter had ever publically interpreted, the Holy Spirit empowered him to preach vigorously in Spanish, as Scott preached in English. 

​The people were very hungry for the reality of God's Presence.  There was a sense that they were seeking His Face.  Ps. 27:8 When You said, Seek My Face, my heart said, Your Face, O LORD, I shall seek.  They worshiped deeply and cried out with us for more of the manifest Presence of the Holy Spirit. 

Father God graciously identified and removed major burdens from the backs of the people - powerfully delivering them from their false notions, their religious ideas, of what The Father is really like, as they heard the Word of God preached. 

The Word and Spirit came together, divinely softening hearts - hundreds weeping, even small children weeping, overcome with the goodness of Heavenly Father!  I have never seen this before.  A 6 year old boy was weeping and said he wanted to follow Jesus!  Then a 9 year old boy was weeping, overwhelmed by divine love.  When I led him in prayer he was saved right there by the power of God.  Rom. 1:16 "For I am not ashamed of the gospel of God, for it is the power of God for salvation to everyone who believes, to Jew first and also to the Greek."  He was also delivered from carrying heavy burdens from his family.

​If someone were to offer us $1,000,000 in order to pay for what the LORD had accomplished during that meeting, the Almighty would have been profoundly insulted.  What He wrought in the hearts of the people was absolutely priceless.  We felt so humbled that He would entrust us with the task of ministering divine riches...  The Majestic Glory (2 Peter 1:17)  does whatever He desires and He does not need us in the least to accomplish His will, and yet He chooses to use weak vessels...

Gloria a Dios!

Glorious Holy Spirit, Mexico City

4/7/2017

 
The Presence of the LORD was very powerful at tonight's meeting in Naucclpan, Lugar, Mexico State!  The people were worshiping Jesus passionately and then crying out for His Presence and then worshiping Him some more.  Right after the worship, Scott urged them to open their hearts more and expect the Holy Spirit to come.  Then I exhorted people to surrender their lives to Jesus Christ "today if you hear His Voice, do not harden your hearts!".  The cost of following Jesus was laid out - they must confess their sins, turn from their evil ways, repent of having worshiped and prayed to Mary and surrender their  lives to the One True God, Jesus Christ.  Then I led in corporate prayers -

​50 people were gloriously swept into the Kingdom of God and 25 others re-dedicated their lives to Him!  Scott then preached on the life of Peter; both he and our interpreter were flowing in the Anointing of the Holy Spirit!  Without the Holy Spirit, we can't do anything.  Nothing of any lasting value happens if the Holy Spirit is not present.  But when the Holy Spirit takes over, then divine things begin to happen and His will is accomplished for His express glory! 

In his sermon, Scott traced the life of Peter - Jesus called him to Himself, Peter left his old life of fishing, Jesus saw Peter's true identity and destiny, then how Peter failed miserably  as he denied his best Friend, then Jesus restored him over breakfast and finally how weak Peter was filled with the Holy Ghost and preached fearlessly to a huge crowd, with 3000 people saved!  Father God sees that we are all weak and that we have all failed in various ways, but if we come to Him and submit to Him, then He restores our lives and empowers us to obey Him and thus He receives glory and produces divine fruit in our lives!

​Everyone received prayer after the sermon and the Presence of the LORD was so powerful that we were truly in awe of the greatness of God.  People were weeping in His Presence - weeping as they received His forgiveness and deliverance from condemnation, failure and shame.  Many were shaking because of the power of God setting them free from believing lies and filling them fresh with His Presence.  After 4 hours, we could testify that many of their faces shone with the glory of the Living God.

The Holy Spirit is always on the move, accomplishing the will of The Father across the globe!  When He opens a divine door of opportunity, we want to be ready to step through it!

This past ministry trip to the UK was filled with those divine open doors!  I preached in various churches in Manchester, Middleton, Oxford, Gloucester and ended in Biscester.  Everywhere I went I saw hungry people encountering  the glorious Holy Spirit. 

The highlight of the trip came at the end, at the Church of England in a town just outside of Oxford called, Bicester.  Over the past season, most of the pastors of these churches in this town have been gathering for prayer.  Most churches from the town came together over the weekend of Nov. 18-20.  There was a tremendous sense of Psalm 133 unity among  the leaders and churches!  Many received fresh vision and anointing for evangelism of their town.  Over 100 people then went out into the streets to testify of the goodness of the Lord and to share the way of salvation!  Some new families came into the main church and received prayer and counsel while their children enjoyed the bouncy castle and other activities. 

We are so grateful to our Prayer Team who upheld us and the events in prayer over those 3 weeks of ministry - they share in all the kingdom fruit.  Praise the LORD for those Partners who have sown generously and faithfully into our ministry. 

I praise and thank Jesus for the growing unity and what I believe is a beginning of a divine downpour over Bicester!

April 2015 - Breaking up the hard ground - Belize City, Belize, Central America

1/6/2016

 
  We embarked on a 2 week mission to Belize City, Belize in April, 2015.  This was arguably the most difficult mission trip we have taken as yet.  The ground was very hard spiritually, so the trip was more about breaking up the hard ground  through intercessory prayer (Hos. 10:12) than it was about revival meetings, although we did hold those meetings and we did see some breakthroughs come.

Most days were spent crying out to the Lord of the harvest in intercessory prayer (Ps. 126:5,6)  together with the other team members in the living room of our rented accommodations.  The daily heat was oppressive at 105 degrees F with 85% humidity.  As we lacked air conditioning, we experienced first-hand the requirement of our bodies being "living sacrifices" (Rom. 12:1) to the LORD! 

At night things cooled down to 88 degrees F; four fans in our bedroom roared at top speed.  We were thankful there were no bed bugs (as there had been in Guatemala).  But we were unable to sleep.  Dogs roamed wild at night and barked almost continuously.  After about 4 sleepless nights we decided we would take a prayer walk in the neighbourhood and take authority over the yapping of the dogs.  We exercised our spiritual authority (1 Cor. 15:27) over this noise disturbance in Jesus' Name and that night, and from then on, deep canine slumber occurred in that part of the city!

We did hold renewal meetings and at first the people were reticent about receiving prayer from us.  It took some time for their resistance to break down, something we are not used to, but once it began to dissipate we were then able to minister to them.  Marriages were blessed through the seminars we held and people were built up and encouraged through the Word.  We were able to minister restoration to a couple senior pastors but the details cannot be disclosed.  Also we conducted some prayer ministry appointments for other leaders.  We were reminded of Jesus' invitation, "whosoever will, let him come!" and that we just needed to be faithful to plant the seeds and to water but that it is the LORD who causes the actual spiritual growth (1 Cor. 3:6)!

Faith without works is dead... Dec. 2015 Newsletter

12/30/2015

 
Dec. 2015 Toronto

We were so blessed when suddenly the Holy Spirit opened the door for us to assist some Syrian refugee families.  This is what happened:  Our church, Catch the Fire (Toronto) agreed to become a depot for donations for refugees. So they needed help to sort and organize thousands of donations... 

At first we thought, "OK we will help but we certainly don't want to head it up!"  However the Holy Spirit had other plans and quickly recruited us.  He gave me as willing heart the moment I heard Him say, "Faith without works is dead."  Jam. 2:17.  Amazing how He can change our hearts in a moment by His truth!

This operation was the brainchild of One Free World International, empowered by the Holy Spirit!  Many volunteers from our church came out to sort all the thousands of basic necessities - warm coats, clothes, hats, mittens, scarves, boots, food, furniture, kitchen ware etc.  The operation took us 4 days to prepare and the Lord even provided some Arabic interpreters to be on-hand when the dear refugees arrived.  There was a tremendous sense of unity as several ministries joined together for the cause!  And about 100 refugees were blessed over several days.

We met 2 brothers and they were telling us how their other brother had lost his legs due to a bomb explosion but they were so grateful that the Lord had spared his life.  A woman shared how they had to flee their country and live in another country (which was not very safe either) before finally being permitted to come to Canada.  They were so blessed to receive all the generous donations and we were thrilled to be a part of what the Father was doing! 

It was the best Christmas of our lives because we re-discovered that "it is more blessed to give than to receive".  (Acts 20:35)


Unstoppable God! - Oct. 23 - 25, 2015

11/12/2015

 
Six young people were gloriously saved during the youth retreat in Port Sydney, Ontario (Oct. 23 - 25, 2015)!  Very exciting for us to experience "...the power of God for salvation to everyone who believes... " (Rom. 1:16)  Many more had life-changing encounters with the Lord!  About 40 students from Great Lakes Christian High School attended.  We were very blessed to have an anointed worship team and ministry team.  Scott preached several times and these teens - many young Christians or unsaved - were hungry and attentive!  All were open to receive prayer ministry at the end of each message. 
 
There were so many "firsts" - some gave their public testimonies for the first time.  2 girls wrote and sang a heavenly song for the first time.  At least 2 of the students practically began to preach during the sharing of their testimonies!  Some were learning to linger in His Presence.  Others were stepping out and boldly praying from their hearts in front of their peers!  We were all feeling a sense of wonder - seeing Him at work! 

Everyone was amazed and gave praise to God. They were filled with awe and said, "We have seen remarkable things today."  (Luke 5:26)

Emerging Ministries School - Oct. 3 & 4, 2015

10/6/2015

 
Hi Everyone,
 
The supreme purpose of our lives is to glorify the Lord and enjoy Him forever.  He has a particular plan for each one's life, as revealed in Eph. 2:10 "For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand so that we would walk in them."  We do not 'create' our calling, but we pray and follow the Lord's leading, stepping into the "good works" which He has already prepared for us to step into.

We launched Emerging Ministries School this past weekend at Catch the Fire Toronto with our team.  The Lord came in His truth, love and power!  People were excited and more empowered to walk forward in their callings. 

Emerging Ministries is a new ministry at Catch the Fire - Toronto church and our mandate is to mobilize people in their gifts and callings so they may advance the Kingdom of God.  Our plan is to conduct evening training sessions for the participants on a monthly basis and then run the school again in the Spring, Lord willing.  "Father, come and mobilize Your people for Your glory!"
 
Thanks for your prayers and support.

UK Mission Trip - June 2015

8/11/2015

 
June 2015 - UK Report

It was really spectacular to see the Holy Spirit sweep across our meetings in England, pouring into hungry hearts!  "For He has satisfied the thirsty soul, and the hungry soul He has filled with what is good." Ps. 107:9   We have conducted many ministry trips to the UK over the years, but noticed a greater response among those who came to our meetings this time.  Praise Jesus for increased spiritual hunger!  
 
We taught and ministered at various churches in - Oxford, Bicester, Gloucester, Manchester, Rochdale, Middleton and York.  He gave us endurance to keep up with His pace!  Jesus was exalted, His Word was preached, and the broken and thirsty encountered Him.

In many of our meetings, people who had been under years of confusion and condemnation received powerful deliverance and freedom through the preaching of the Word.  A middle eastern man confessed his sin in broken English and received forgiveness and comfort from Father God. We also witnessed several divine physical healings, praise the LORD!

Testimony of a couple:
 
I just wanted to thank you for a wonderful weekend. I am still feeling so powerfully touched by your words and the grace that you carry. I felt powerfully moved and released at your conference this past weekend. I hadn't realized I had so much fear and I realized there were many lies that were really holding me back from my happiness, freedom and connection with God.
 
This new freedom and peace are continuing and now I feel a much closer intimacy with The Lord. I feel very restored and empowered!  God bless you both as you continue to travel and minister God's incredible love to people and lead them into a deeper relationship with Christ.
 
Summer Vision:

Our mandate for the Summer has been  SOAPP - "Summer of Anointed Prayer & Preparation".  We have spent more time in prayer with Him, taken extra time for our marriage and have worked on ministry development.  We have been working on our new website, professionally recording our sermons and expecting His financial provision for ministry expansion.  We are also praying about possible invitations to Latin America.

Thank you for partnering with us in so many ways such as, prayer, finances, practical help and exhortation!  We know we couldn't do this ministry without such partnership.
 
Rejoicing in His goodness,

Scott & Hilary Dalton
