Harvest Revival Fire Igniting

LET THE HARVEST BEGIN!
February 14, 2002
Ahoskie NC

Bulletin by Danny Steyne, Crossroads

What began as a simple conference to release evangelism in our local church is rapidly mushrooming into a regional event in northeast North Carolina. Last week the men of our church spent two days with Chad Taylor in a summit in Virginia& we thought it was to be a retreat & in reality it became an advance of the Kingdom.

From that event we returned to Ahoskie, NC to our local church, Crossroads (see
Saturday night was profoundly eventful. God brought people from as far away as Georgia to witness what we now realize is the Hand of the Lord as he pulls out the reaping sickle over northeast NC. Pastors and leaders came from all over northeast NC and the Holy Spirit fell on us with a deep repentance for the prejudice of this area. This area has been steeped in tragic events of injustice for centuries. This night we washed the feet of two African American Pastors and expressed our sorrow over the tragedy of discrimination. One woman cried out for the sins of her family, having had a father who was steeped in the white supremacy movement of the Ku Klux Klan. Others, young and old, cried out for their own sins of prejudice and social profiling, as well as the sins of their forefathers and the sins of this land as Daniel did (Daniel 9). . (See pic's of foot washing at: http://www.consumingfire.com/washing.htm

The next day we experienced an increase all day, through prophetic worship and then Sunday night came. Earlier we heard of a tragedy, not two blocks from where we were meeting&. a place called No Man s Land . Here is how Chad Taylor describes that evening:

A place locals call "No Man's Land" became a historical place of forgiveness and healing for America tonight. Approximately 50 years ago in Ahoskie, N.C. there was a train depot through the center of town. Only remnants of it still exist today. A drinking fountain was near the boarding station for the train. White patrons were the only ones allowed to drink from this particular fountain.

A black man riding the rails, ignorant of this unspoken rule, drank from the fountain. Immediately he was hung on the spot from some angry citizens. From then on, no white person would drink from the fountain nor would the blacks. To this day it is known as "No man's Land Park." After the foot washing of two black pastors on February 9th, the previous night, two more black pastors attended Sunday night's meeting. Again the word of reconciliation and revival went forth, what followed was again, sovereign...

A spontaneous march went from the downtown church building to the streets. The black and white pastors led the way. We marched one block to "No Man's Land Park" and declared that it was God's land now! Cries of forgiveness and prayers of repentance could be heard in that location tonight. Silencing the painful voices from the past still haunting a generation in the shadow of prejudice and hate. The name of the Church is called "Crossroads." This has been a historic crossroads for two days now, and will continue to be a crossroads of revival and reconciliation in the days to come.

Pastor Danny and Karen Steyne of Crossroads church led in communion in "No Man's Land Park." We stood on the place where once bred terror and tragedy and partook of the Body and Blood of Christ. The White and Black Pastors together embraced, drank from the same cup, and poured the remnants of the cups used over the barren place where the tragedy had occurred & representing the Blood of Jesus poured out over the sins of Prejudice. Shouts of victory and praise were now heard up and down the streets of Ahoskie, North Carolina rather than hatred and murder. ~ Chad Taylor

The next two days there was increase in power and revelation as the Lord began birthing His purposes in us. Pastors from throughout the area made there way to Ahoskie to watch the birth of something awesome!

Spontaneously meetings were set up in other surrounding towns and cities, Windsor, New Bern, and Wittakers& already word is breaking and people are beginning to stream to northeast NC to see what the Lord is doing.

On Wednesday, February 12, we met in a African American church in Windsor. The Lord really touched the people. The Good News was truly preached to the poor & who received an incredible touch from the Lord. Several healings and numerous prophetic words were released. One word was that these who were forced into slavery and who were forced into the harvest fields, would now receive the recompense of the Lord& the first fruits of Revival in this Nation & the Harvest & will begin in the African American Culture! They have seen what Harvest looks like first hand& they know the long hours of Harvest Time.. they know the hard work of Harvest Time & they know that when the Harvest is ready it must be brought in before the winter comes.

Thursday and Friday we continue to take this move of the Kingdom to New Bern- the capital of Wicca (call 252-637-0560 for more information), Saturday and Sunday in Whitakers, NC(call 252-437-0525 for more information). On Monday night we will be initiating a Revival Training Center in Ahoskie with the specific purpose of raising up Harvesters to do the work of Evangelism. We expect many local and national equippers to be a part of this process as we begin reaping the Harvest.(call 252-209-8900 for more information).

We are strategizing and preparing for an initial Passion for Harvest Rally ~ October 30 November 3 at Ahoskie Inn. We expect to have many Harvesters here for that time& some known worldwide& some working at the harvest in the streets, barrios, ghettos, businesses, and neighborhoods. These harvesters are coming with a passion for the Harvest themselves, each coming as a missionary to open up the area and invest in the Harvest of the Lord & we aren t bringing speakers who require an specific honorarium & we are bringing those who have given their lives to the Gospel and believe that the fact of revival and harvest is enough purpose and provision for their participation. We are looking for doers & the gutsy& the soldiers& the warriors! We hope to bless each of them, but that s not why they come & they come because the Harvest is coming! This is a new day & a day where the Lord is bringing together an army & not built by human strategy or human means&. the provision is from God& our commander in chief& The Lord of Hosts is His Name He is the Lord of the Harvest! Come.

Thank you.
