Day 1

To begin with, the people involved in the internship are Matt Lockett and his family, Marcus & Kathy Harris, Nicole, Clayton, Alexia, Yoosung & Luke. The first five are staff and the other three are the other interns.

Today we began our day by eating breakfast together in the dinning room. What a
sweet time it was to get to know one another. The plan was to give and talk about
our testimonies, so Matt (the head over bound for life) started us off. If you have ever met him, you know once he starts it's hard for him to stop, not that it's a bad thing, haha. He spoke for awhile just giving us background of his life. Let me tell you, it was amazing to hear the stories that he has. Then when he finished, Kathy (one of
the staff members of JHOP) begin to give her testimony. By the time she finished
it was time to head to the wall to seige. For you who do not know what seiging is,
it is when we go to the Supreme Court and stand in silent prayer for the the ending
of abortion in our nation while wearing red tape that says LIFE on it. It is very intense
to say the least. We stood for about an hour and prayed. We then came back to have lunch and fellowship. After lunch we sat and had our first actual teaching on
the 7 mountains of influence over the earth.
1. Government
2. Family
3. Entertainment/Art
4. Education
5. Business
6. Religion
7. Media
While here in DC our main purpose to to pray over our government. Our prayers have great impact whether we can see it right away or not. 1 Timothy 2:1-4 says "Therefore I exhort first of all that supplications, prayers, intercessions, and giving of thanks be made for all men, for kings and all who are in authority, that we may lead a quiet and peaceable life in all godliness and reverence. For this is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Savior, who desires all men to be saved and to come to the knowledge of the truth." This scripture is very important to our time. Well that was the gist of my day. Hopefully I will keep this updated on a regular basis.


To all I know & love,
