Joy, Peace, & Glory

Hello friends! It has been an absolutely incredible past few weeks here in my DTS. I'll start by saying how awesome God is! He is constantly amazing me with His goodness and faithfulness. During this past month, we have had the privilege to learn and receive from Jonathan David Helser, one who truly carries the heart of the Father. My heart has been changed as I'm further understanding the reality that we are children of God and He is a good, good Father. We also had the opportunity to hear from Brian Brennt, who taught us about living our lives in complete freedom. We were able to get rid of all the things that get in the way of the fulness of God such as shame, condemnation, passivity, pride, and self-focus, and then replace those things with LOVE & HUMILITY.  


This month has been so filled with revelation and encounter. As a school, we have been marked with a desire to release the Love of God to the nations. The more time we spend in His presence, the more we receive His heart for the world. 


Just this weekend, some of us decided to have worship and prayer at the campus cafe and just wait on God to see what He wanted to do. Each night has exploded with joy, peace, and glory as we cried out for the Lord to move. We've seen 12 salvations (new friends from the community,) many people getting healed, and all of us getting transformed with a new passion and zeal for the presence of God. It is amazing what can happen when we simply put all of our focus on Him and posture our hearts to let Him move. 


HE IS WORTHY

I am getting more and more excited about SOUTH AFRICA! My team leaves on the 25th of March, and will be living in the township of Masiphumelele. I am so ready to be with these lovely people, and share everything that God has put in me. I know that I will learn so much from these amazing ones, and that the Lord is going to do a massive transformation in my heart as I spend time with them and see what it really means to have JOY in just JESUS.

I have been writing more music, and will be putting up some songs soon! Thank you all for being such incredible friends! I'm so blessed to have a wonderful group of people supporting me in this journey! Email me at cjchamberlain4god@hotmail.com with any questions or if you want to know more! Love you all!
