Meeting Day in Bucharest

Robert and I were up about 7:45AM this morning. We are staying at the Ibis Hotel in downtown Bucharest within walking distance of the Parliament Building. We have a meeting with the Department of Transportation at 10:30 this morning and another meeting with a different branch of the same department at 12 or 12:30. 

We will then come back to the hotel, maybe to talk with Raji about how the meetings went, other things, or maybe to rest. Raji is very interested in these early morning meetings. 

About 4:00PM we will meet with the Department of Defense and Security. 

Hopefully our meetings will be fruitful and prosperous. 

Later on this evening we will meet with Gina Bara for supper. 
Gina has been Robert's and my translator each time we have visited Romania. 

Well, we are about to go downstairs to meet with Raji. 

Long, Long Monday

Hello, 
Robert and I have just returned to Bucharest from Galati at 3:00AM Tuesday. We visited Nellu, a pastor in Galati that I prophesied over in 1998. The first words out of his mouth when he saw me at the train station way, "Do you remember any of the prophecy you spoke to me in 1998?" I had to say no. I didn't. 

He did share with me most of the high points about the word and how all of it has come to pass as we drove to his apartment. There his wife greeted us and served us a wonderful supper. Nellu has two small boys. We ate supper and and prayed a blessing over his family before we left to pray for Marion Stanca (picture below--Robert, Anda, Marion, and Nellu). 

Marion's faith is great and he is even more encouraged about walking after we share Megan Kovac's testimony. We prayed and he felt a feverish heat down his backbone, so did Robert. We stood him up and helped to move, it was more like struggle, around the room. He was tired after about 20 minutes of that. 

He began to share with us many dreams that he had about walking. When he began to share, Nellu shared a dream with all of us about Marion walking. I looked at Nellu and said, "The Lord just told me that you need to step out in your prophetic gifting." Robert said, "That was the other part of your prophetic word in 1998." Nellu said, "That is the only part that is not fulfilled." 

Marion's wife along with all of us agreed that Marion will walk. They know that God is going to heal him. They had just talked about how there is nothing medical science can help them with anymore, so they are placing all their trust in Jesus' healing power (not mine or Robert's-- we have none). 

After we left Marion's home, Nellu drove us to Stephan and Gabi Enache's home. They invited Robert and me to watch a video of Robert's last days. Amazingly, little Robert was very happy and upbeat throughout the last year of his life. He was born on Gabi's sisters birthday, and he died on her wedding day. We prayed. 

Gabi recognized me the minute I walked in the door. She was one of the translators in Elek, Hungary in 2000. 

Stephan and Gabi have a small baby named Emanueleta. She is 1-1/2 months old and looks like a little doll. 

After we prayed a blessing over them and the baby, Stephan drove us back to Bucharest. 

Well, I have to go to sleep. I need to wake up in about 4 hours.
Thanks to everyone who prayed for us today. God was truly with us. 

Thanks, thanks, thanks.
