Many see the end result but very few have heard about the journey and the behind the scenes of how the Tent of Miracles came to be and that's what I wanted to share with you.

I remember the Lord telling me in November 2022, seemingly out of nowhere, that I needed to do a crusade in Lakeland, FL. I thought this would just be another simple church meeting, but that wasn't the case. As with everything else when the Lord is in it, He far exceeded my expectations.

This crusade felt so big in my spirit, I knew a church building wasn't the right setting for it. We looked into stadiums and other large venues for availability yet nothing worked out. Nothing was big enough to fit what I felt in my spirit.

Sitting in my office, frustrated, I told the Lord we needed a larger place and reminded him of the call he gave me to go to Lakeland. How was it that the logistics weren't coming together?

And then, He said...

"Go get a tent.” What?! I responded, "absolutely not! Why would you want me to go get a tent? Tents are ugly. I don't want to be in one of those things!”

"There has to be a better way of doing this" and the Lord replied, "go get a circus tent." Immediately, phone calls were made and emails were sent yet every response that came back was a dead end.

"Lord, you told me to find a circus tent and we don't have a circus tent. So where do we find one?" The Lord said, "you're looking in the wrong place." Really? "Where do you want me to look?" The Lord replied, "at a circus!" Ha! Why didn't I think of that? With this direction, a phone call was made to a local circus and a beautiful tent was found - we locked it in.

Securing a building wasn't the only obstacle we faced, they seemed to pop up on every front. Not only had our team never organized a tent crusade but every time we found land and locked it in, the deal would fall through. We were even told by one of the land owners that there was going to be a wicca convention and that our meeting, and I quote, "wouldn't jive with their convention." Laughing, I was kind of happy they felt it wouldn't "jive", how weird if it did!

We weren't going half way with this crusade. I literally can't. I'm either all in or all out. I knew the cost was going to be astronomical but I also knew that if we were going forward, we were going all out.

My attempt was going to be so big that if it was an absolute failure it was still going to be bigger than another's success.

Knowing the Lord was in this, I didn't care about the expense. "Fill the tent with the best of the best equipment, chairs and air conditioning. Make it epic," I told the team.

Going into this crusade, I wanted everything paid off before taking the mic on night one. And the Lord did just that.

We didn't have to go around raising funds, the Lord brought in every portion of the $260,000 needed because where he calls he provides.

But getting to that place was incredibly uncomfortable for me, however. For days I was literally screaming inside "God help me!"

This is where my brain was at - if you're going to sink, at least sink in the Titanic and not a canoe because they'll at least make a movie about you in 50 years.

Know that when God takes you to the next level in your life, it's always something that you cannot do in the natural.

The vision of the tent was so massive that it had to come together supernaturally. There was no way I could do it in my own strength.

When God tells you to do something, he knows that if you obey him, he'll take care of the rest.

If God could provide us with a circus tent, the funds, secure us land, get us the permissions needed, give us favor - he most certainly will do the same for you. But it's your choice. You have to step out of the place of fear.

People want to be where we are but they don't want to take the steps necessary to being here. We are all given the same opportunities but it is our level of obedience that is the determining factor.

One of the most astounding aspects of this God journey was that, from the time we found a place to starting the promotions and executing the tent meeting, the Lord helped us pull it all off in just 21 days.

You read that correctly - 21 days from start to finish.

Suddenly, people started coming out of the woodwork to help. Volunteers from different States flew in just to be a part of what the Lord was about to do under the tent.
