Hello Conf #2!

Update: Night services streaming Live!

Ready or not, here it comes! The second of our 2 annual summer youth conf. began tonight with me sharing a word entitled Prophetic Hit List. It is so amazing to watch as the kids come streaming in from around the nation all over again when less than a month ago they were here by the thousands and now this new group is hungry to start back at the beginning and receive all they can from an awesome God. I think heaven enjoys these type of radical gatherings where the worship is so passionate and the maturing process of God’s chosen generation is accelerated beyond what we could know.

I’m sitting here up at 1:30 am typing to you out there in cyberspace cause the excitement of tonight and all surrounding these momentous occasions has me restless and doing my best to sleep while pumped up with a high of youth coming to Jesus. Tonight, probably 1000 or more kids came to the Lord from a backslidden state or for the very first time. As the Word went forth it evidently brought great conviction and then my friend Prophet Damon Thompson tag teamed with me and gave a powerful salvation altar call. They came until every aisle of the great Bethany North aud. was filled. That’s a lot of kids! My prayer is that they would not just have an emotional experience of remorse like Judas but a deep spiritual repentance like Peter did when He denied the Lord and then was leading the Acts revival 50 days later. Who knows what God could do through these kids this school year? How many of them may end up giving their entire lives to winning this generation? Who could end up being a voice to nations out of this conf? I just believe that the Holy Spirit is at work and even though it is a tremendous physical and spiritual effort to put on these conferences the lasting fruit will all be worth it when we get to heaven and see the lasting impact that is had for the Kingdom of God.

Lastly, I ask for your prayers as I have been really battling sickness and weakness in my physical body. I did my best tonight and let the Holy Spirit and Damon do the rest. I’ve learned to do what I can and let God do the rest. Pray my strength by multiplied and grace to carry me for the next 2 days. There is a window here that must be stepped through. God is able…

  4. Pastor Joel,

    I could not bring my youth this year, but we are praying for strength for you and the 220 ministry team, and for the fire of the Holy Ghost to fall. My kid’s are still talking about the Upsidedown Conference. We went to the Desperation Conference in MI a week ago and on the last night one of my youth asked me if they were going to do the Holy Ghost service!!!! Of course their flow is a little different, but it was still powerful. Nothing can replace the unique move that is taking place at Bethany. My wife and I are hoping to either come to your fall conference or the one in the spring. Be blessed!!!!!

    Praying for you. Saw you at the GC conference. There’s a great song by Hillsong on youtube called “healer”. Really powerful song of deliverance and healing. If you do a search on “hillsong healer story” it’s the first link. Glad that the 220 conference is rockin!!
    Your life is an encouragement and motivation to people around the world.

    I hope you read these Pastor Joel. I’m asking God for the greatest show of power yet in your overall physical healing, and that you would have new beginnings; in ministry yes, but personally mostly! May you dare in the Lord to dream about new beginnings from a God who asks, “Is there anything impossible for Me”.

  10. Christopher Keller says:

    May God by the HS strengthen you in your inner man and may it manifest in your physical body in Jesus Name! It was great this morning it really was flowing this morning. Prophet Damon Thompson did a great job. Love you Pastor Joel praying for you!

  11. Timothy says:

    Exd 17:12-13 Moses’ arms finally became too tired to hold up the staff any longer. So Aaron and Hur found a stone for him to sit on. Then they stood on each side, holding up his hands until sunset. As a result, Joshua and his troops were able to crush the army of Amalek.

    Praying for you.

    I’m praying for you Pastor Joel! God is not done with you yet my friend. He is just starting! I believe you are healed by the stripes of our Lord Jesus Christ and he is now giving you strength to be a head leader for this Prophetic Generation!! I loved the 1st night because you used the same scripture as in the 1st Conference but you totally gave a fresh Word from the Lord! That blew my mind away!! I believe you are healed Pastor Joel in the Name of Jesus!!
    God Bless You Mighty Man of valor!!

  13. Janna Chae, Vancouver, WA says:

    I heard your sermon, “Count the Cost” on a podcast from GC conference and I’ve been following your blog since. Thank you so much for allowing the Holy Spirit lead you and your youth group. God is doing such amazing works with you!! I will definitely be praying for your health and Holy-Spirit led conference!
    I have a business partner whose husband got his 2nd stroke, but now is miraculously fully healed (he can walk, talk and do everything!) from eating certified organic vitamins+Holy Spirit’s prayers. The doctors were amazed and couldn’t believe it. If God can completely heal a 65 year old man from his 2nd stroke, God and and will definitely heal you!! In Jesus’ precious name, AMEN!

    God Bless You Pastor Joel, I will be lifting you up in prayer for total strength and healing from the crown of your head to the soles of your feet in Jesus Mighty Glorious Name, The Lord is working through you mightily to reach out the youth of this generation with an intense passion to see this generation saved, changed, and transformed by the power of the Holy Ghost, To God Be the Glory for his hand of mercy and grace. Jesus loves you so much.
    Isaiah 40:29-31
    40:29 He giveth power to the faint; and to them that have no might he increaseth strength.
    40:30 Even the youths shall faint and be weary, and the young men shall utterly fall:
    40:31 But they that wait upon the LORD shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; and they shall walk, and not faint.
