Transcript: "There's also someone that I see, you're going to be on a mission trip to Africa pretty soon, and the Lord says, Get prayed up, because miracles are going to happen through you. You're going to see miracles right before your eyes. As you take the steps of faith, you're going to see miracles of healing, of deliverance and of freedom. You're going to see miracles of provision, it's going to be amazing. So start praying now, sowing into the Spirit for this trip that you're going on, and go with expectation. So when you see a need, bring about the answer for that need by faith, receiving from God what is needed for those individuals' lives and you will see miracles right before your eyes. So go, and prepare in Jesus' name."
