This is a photo of a beautiful rainbow over the local Bedehus in Bryne. A Bedehus is a place established for prayer and it has been said that every city that has a Bedehus has experienced a renewal of Christian life in recent years. You can read about Hans Nielsen Hauge and the prayer movement he began in Norway at this link:
Last night we had a meeting at the Frikirke (FreeChurch) which is one step away from the State Church. It has the same form, theology and tradition as the State Church (Lutheran) but the state doesn't have any rule over them. They are free to appoint the pastor of their choice, for example. It was a meeting with the people who want to be a little freer in their worship and we expected a subdued crowd. It was really beautiful to see how many of the people stepped out to prophesy and speak of the visions the Lord gave them as we worshiped together. Many people saw visions of the Lord leading them, as His sheep, down the mountain to heal them and restore them. I posted the photo below to show what a beautiful sight the sheep on the mountainside is.
With a heritage like this it isn't any wonder that God is ready to pour out His Spirit on this land! There are many here with hungry hearts who long for a visitation of God! These are my people and my heart is wholly for them and with them.
Jeg elsker Norge med hele mitt hjerte!
