Romans 2:4

Lord, thank You for Your love that was poured out for us on the cross. Thank You for Your perfect love that casts out fear and that nothing can separate us from! We pray that we would be filled with Your love so we may pour it out onto others to bring You glory and honor! We thank You that Your love is patient and it is kind. We ask that You help us extend patience and kindness as You have shown us. Help us to love others even more than we love ourselves! Lord, we love You, need You, and are eternally grateful for all Your love! It’s in Jesus name we pray, amen!

reviveTUPELO

This morning I felt led to stay back and pray; it was an amazing time! We spent the first part of our time listening and then the atmosphere shifted as we began making declarations about what we had heard! For example, I felt as if someone were choking me, so I declared people would experience freedom from abuse and for their voices to no longer be silenced. It was fun learning how the Lord answered our prayers while the teams shared their testimonies and experiences in the community!

I shared with the person I was sitting beside how my ovary hurt during prayer and how it the only thing that wasn’t addressed. She disclosed during one of their encounters the lady had facial hair and a team member commented she had a hormonal imbalance. How cool is that?

As we were sitting there, my thumb began itching and she admitted it was a word of knowledge for her. She felt as though she were under everyone’s thumb. I explained to her my limited background of inner healing and she set up a time for us to pray together. I can’t wait for her to begin experiencing freedom herself!

reviveTX :: Sweetwater, Take 3

What a beautiful way to close out my time in Sweetwater. One of my teammates asked me to accompany him back to the apartment complex we were at last night because he wanted to follow up with someone. It just so happened that the person who he wanted to follow up with’s apartment was in the exact area I was in the night before when my foot started hurting. There was a large group of people gathered there, so I just boldly walked up and asked them if anyone’s foot hurt. Pictured in the bottom right side with the red shirt is the person who stepped forward. My team prayed for his healing and shared the gospel with him. He was healed and while we were still talking to him, Alisha walked over to us. She was the person who gave her her life to the Lord last night and got baptized that I didn’t have an opportunity to get her information from! Long story short, Alisha has 45 days clean and is looking for women to hold her accountable! We exchanged information and I was able to pray with her! I just love how the Lord worked all that out in His timing!

This afternoon, Aimee and I prayed for all the prayer requests of the teams that were out in the community. We made a pit stop at a local coffee shop and as we were making our way back to the church, we drove by two of the teams that had posted their requests! How fun is that? We even encountered the mobile baptismal as they were about to baptize someone, so were able to stop and help the family celebrate in this glorious occasion! What a beautiful way to wrap up the outreach in this small community!

Mark 12:30-31

This week, I noticed how the Lord was changing my heart. The more I love Him, the more I am able to put others above myself and my selfish desires.

I had an opportunity to schedule a session for inner healing and deliverance and it was mentioned that there were no more openings. The Lord highlighted a young lady and that still small voice said “would you deny her the freedom you’ve been given?” I immediately went up to her and asked if she would be interested in scheduling an appointment and she said yes…needless to say, I gave up my spot and she had an amazing time with the Lord!

Later during the outreach, a friend and I went to Mardel’s in a nearby city with the intention of me purchasing a new travel Bible. However, I forgot my purse so instead of getting a new Bible, I borrowed enough money to buy “The Power of a Praying Parent” for a new believer who just had a baby. I did this because the Lord brought to my remembrance how much I learned from reading “The Power of a Praying Wife” and I wanted to invest in her and the future generation.

Oh Lord, thank you for awakening me to look outside myself…I ask that you help me love others more than myself…to put others needs above my wants so that they may experience You and the love that I already know!

ReviveTX :: Sweetwater, Take 2

Last year, the prayer team prayed over this apartment complex and saw much fruit when the entire team returned for the outreach. This week, the ministry held another worship night there and were able to follow up with some of the folks they had encountered before.

I walked around the block passing out Bibles with two of my teammates. My foot began hurting and I shared with those I was with that we should be looking for someone who’s foot is hurting, as I believed the Lord wanted to heal them. I was disappointed, as we didn’t find anyone along our journey. When we got back to where everyone was assembled, I was introduced to a young lady that wanted to give her life to the Lord and get baptized. She went upfront and was ministered to before I had an opportunity to pray for her and exchange information with her.

During alter call, I had the opportunity to pray with a stay-at-home mother of 5 and Ms. Connie who happened to have the same birthday as Aimee. We ended up walking her back to her friend’s apartment and pray for her friend’s health.

Power in Poverty

What a great way to kick off this outreach! A group of us prayed over the city and we ended up going from the wealthiest to the poorest areas. Our prayer was for the Lord to pour out the riches of His Kingdom and to replace the hopelessness with the hope that can only be found in Him!

The girls and I went out for ice cream this afternoon. We ended up praying for the cashier’s knee. As one of my teammates was praying, my hip began to hurt. When she finished, I asked the cashier if her hip was bothering her too, she said no. When we got outside, I shared that sometimes my hip hurting means that someone is wrestling with the Lord. My teammate who prayed admitted she was doubting if her prayer would work. She agreed to return to the store before the end our time in Sweetwater to see if the Lord answered her! I love how the Lord stretches us and uses us to sharpen one another!

That evening, during our outdoor worship service, there were two car wrecks that occurred directly across the street. (We intentionally positioned ourselves directly in front of a crack house.) Talk about a manifestation and evidence of the two kingdoms colliding! More Lord, more! Join us in our continued prayer for His light to penetrate and overtake the darkness in this neighborhood, in Jesus’ name!

reviveTUPELO

What an amazing way to kick off 2021! reviveTUPELO was hosted by my church this month and the girls from the Transformation House were able to join us.

Casey heard graveyard as we prayed for direction of where to go, so we went to the nearest cemetery. We prayed for a family who recently lost someone they loved then went to the Salvation Army. There, we met Jessie, who was homeless. He gave his life to the Lord, we were elated!

We returned later in the afternoon to check on him and see if he was willing to get help for addiction. He said yes! While we were transporting him to a Christ-centered recovery center, we told him about Casey’s word graveyard! We explained how the Lord redeemed him…by going from death to life spiritually and how he can remain free from the bondage of addiction by continuing seeking the Lord in the recovery house!

Please continue praying for Jessie as he begins walking out his journey with the Lord!

New Vision!

So this little one came and sat in my lap this Sunday. Neil had been teasing her and she grabbed his reading glasses off of the top of his head and took off running. She hid behind the altar and then returned to my lap, put them on, and stated she couldn’t see clearly with them on.

We had several baptisms this afternoon and she ran back to me saying she too wanted to get baptized! I explained to her what baptism represented and she said she knew. I went to find her mother and her mother said she had already accepted Jesus as her Savior! What a beautiful way to begin 2021 with this precious one getting baptized and receiving new eyes to see things that are unseen, amen?

I truly believe the Lord was showing us He is fine tuning our ears to hear a few weeks ago and now focusing our eyes to see this week! Keep pressing into Him as He wants to reveal more of Himself to us!

Yearly Update, 2020

Dear Family and Friends,

It’s that time of year again!  A time to rejoice while reflecting on what God has done over the past twelve months!  As you know, we’ve basically been on lockdown since March.  But we know the Lord always makes a way to continue advancing His Kingdom (Isaiah 43:16-19)!  

At the beginning of the year, our team was encouraged to sit at our Father’s feet and soak in His presence.  While in the midst of my quiet time, the Lord clarified and defined my role as an intercessor on the TTR’s national prayer team.  We have a weekly prayer call for the national team we facilitate and the prayer team itself also meets weekly to pray.

Highlights from reviveSCHOOL

In January, I went to Indiana and graduated from reviveSCHOOL.  ReviveSCHOOL kicked off in 2018 and was an opportunity for the ministry to study the Bible together every day for two years!  Since that time, it has launched in 28 nations. In November, I was asked to help edit the daily lessons in preparation to be translated into different languages. What an honor it is to be a part of something that will spread the Gospel throughout the nations!  If you would like more information, please go to the website:  www.reviveschool.org

GO2020

TTR joined GO2020, a global initiative to reach the lost.  A daily challenge was given throughout the month of May about how to share the Good News with someone in the community.  I was able to participate by going on Facebook live and praying with the prayer team.     

Highlights from reviveTX

The prayer team met the TX team in Sweetwater.  We prayer walked the community and sought what the Lord wanted to do.  We were drawn to a low income apartment complex, where we prayed until we felt a shift. During the outreach a few weeks later, many surrendered their lives to the Lord, were baptized, and were healed at that exact location!

Highlights from reviveGA

The prayer team gathered in Cartersville.  We stayed up every night and pressed in with prayer and during the day released declarations over the land and sang praise about what He’s done and was doing (Mark 13:32-37; 1 Cor. 16:13; Eph. 6:12).

Highlights from TN

TTR has been invited to Sevier County.  On two occasions, a small team met to discern if there was humility, unity and hunger as modeled in Joshua 2.  We prayed with the remnant, facilitated a breakfast for community leaders, and worshipped at Patriot Park. I am looking forward to what the Lord will do in 2021!

Highlights from reviveMS

October marked 5 years since the team came to Tupelo and kicked off our monthly outreaches.  The local team has equipped two new communities; Richmond and Fulton!  There has been such a hunger in Fulton, we have continued meeting monthly.  We would love for you to join us.  If you are interested, dates and times are posted on www.timetorevive.com under “Locations.”

I pray you have a blessed Christmas and a New Year full of abundant peace, love, and joy!

Your sister in Christ,

Susan Naron

Joy in the Journey

Fill My Cup has been a big blessing to me this season. The owner, Ms. Tammy has graciously allowed me to sell my homemade items at her precious coffee shop.

While there, I get to pray and pour into the workers and even the clientele. During one of my visits, I was able to catch up with of the guys I hit the streets with last year during a reviveTUPELO outreach! During another trip, I met a vender who makes dog treats. Well, come to find out she made Trixie icecream, knowing she can’t chew hard food. How thoughtful is that?

Oh what fun it is getting to walking out His calling!
