It has been two years since I took the step out and began raising support and working at the House of Prayer Sacramento as an Intercessory Missionary. Let me tell you, it has been filled with ups, downs, lefts, rights, and all the differnt directions. There has been joy, celeboratory moments, growthing pains and deeper intimacy with Jesus. Every ounce in me is so thankful and glad that I said yes to the Lord. It hasn't been the easiest, but man has it been a journey.


The end of December 2024, I walked out of a seaon that felt long and one of the driest seaons I have walked through in a long time. Since being in this new season, it has been joy and creative. It doesn't mean that it has been easy and there have been no downs; but I have come to a place where I don't let one situation or circumstance that feels like a down dictate a shift in my season.


I've been growing in the prophetic gifting of seeing. When I am praying over or for people, the Lord is showing me pictures. It takes me stepping out in faith to share the picture becasue 9 times out of 10 I have no idea what the picture means. But thats how we grow in our spiritual giftings. Stepping out. This is what I encourage you with today. If you feel the Lord speaking, moving, asking you of someting but you do not have the full picure, step out in faith. This is how we grow, this is how we grow in deeper communion with the Father and this is another way for the Lord to radically demonstrate is mightiness in our lives.


After eight months of stepping away from the piano out of discouragement; I found myslef playing again. All for the Lord, not striving or gaining the talent to be on a worship set. Let me tell you, that mindset change sent me to an overflow. I find myself playing like I have never stopped, I find myself playing better than I ever have and songs are flowing out. The moments I spend with the Lord in the prayer room and in my quiet place have been beautiful. The quietness of His loving voice and coming to Him with nothing but wanting a nearness to the Father has shifted my prayer life.


Overall, it has been a long year, full of hardships and dry walking seasons. Yet at the beginning, middle and end of the day, the Father is still good, He is still faithful and He is still the greatest leadership we could ever hope for.


The House of Prayer Sacramento is a place offerring night and day prayer and worship unto the Lord simply becasue He is worhty. He is worthy of our verbal expression, he is worthy of us laying down things of our day and coming to Him.



If you or anyone you know would like to sow into night and day prayer and myself as a missionary, please reach out to me (Olivia.gibs@yahoo.com) and ask any and all the questions you may have.
