“Arise, cry out in the night, at the beginning of the watches; pour out your heart
like water before the face of the Lord. Lift your hands toward Him for the life of
your young children, who faint from hunger at the head of every street.”
Lamentations 2:19
In 1995, the prophetic Word of the Lord, Lamentations 2:19, was spoken through a child.
I was reading a story book to our five year old son before putting him to bed when suddenly
he said, “Lamentations 2:19.” Gilles and I had just recently given our hearts to the Lord. I
didn’t even know there was a book in the Bible called Lamentations, but I knew it was a
scripture. When I found the verse, I said, “Lord, what are you saying?” Now I know that
Prophetic word is for today! THE CRY OF THE LORD IS FOR FAMILIES TO BE
RESTORED UNTO HIM!
Gilles and I met as teenagers and even before we were saved we vowed to work together
to keep our family from being broken up. We were married in 1987 and Michael was born in
1990. Gilles and I, Diane, have had one marriage and one child only; we met in 1982 and
have been married for 23 years. We give the Lord Jesus Christ all the honor and glory for
this testimony. This testimony will be important to set the example at the Miracle Valley
Arizona Family Center. We must live what we preach and have a testimony!
...“Worship God! For the testimony of Jesus is the spirit of prophecy.”
Revelation 19:10
“And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb and by the word of their
testimony,”...Revelation 12:11
In the midst of tragedy and adversary there is hope through our Lord and Savior Jesus
Christ. This is the message this generation needs to hear.
In 1970, when Gilles was seven years old, his family’s house burned down the night of
Christmas. Because his parents had no insurance, they lost everything. The next day,
while staying at his grandmother’s house, he looked outside and saw the smoke rising from
the ashes where their house used to be. He said, “God, what is life about? When you get
old you have a house and a car and you lose everything. God, what is life about?” Gilles
grew up in the small town of Grand-Remous, Quebec, Canada. They only went to church
when somebody died or was married; he had never read the Bible. When he said those last
words, “God, what is life about?”, something sucked him out of the room and he was
standing in front of a light. He could feel love from the light-it felt like velvet wrapped around
him. The light did not blind his eyes. Suddenly a voice like thunder spoke to him and said,
“One day you will be far from home and you will tell people to love one another like Jesus
Christ loved you; that is what life is about. You will have one son and you will travel and
preach.”
“A new commandment I give to you, that you love one another; that you love
one another; as I have loved you, that you also love one another.” “By this all
will know that you are My disciples, if you have love for one another.”
John 13:34-35
“Though I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, but have not love, I
have become sounding brass or a clanging cymbal. And though I have the gift
of prophesy, and understand all mysteries and all knowledge, and though I have
all faith, so that I could remove the mountains, BUT HAVE NOT LOVE, I AM
NOTHING. And though I bestow all my goods to feed the poor, and though I give
my body to be burned, but have not love, it profits me nothing.”
1 Corinthians 13:1-3
We will be continuing to update this page concerning what the family center will be-how the
classrooms will be used and how families will be able to contribute their skills, time and
finances to this ministry. We will share what the Lord has shown us about how this will
impact the community, the reservations across the nations and to the ends of the world as
we unite together and show the love of Jesus Christ to one another.
FAMILY CENTER MINISTERS AND TEACHERS
HAVE THEIR HOUSE IN ORDER AND A GOOD REPUTATION IN THE COMMUNITY
1 Timothy 3:4-7
“ONE WHO RULES HIS OWN HOUSE WELL, having his children in submission
with all reverence (for if a man does not know how to rule his own house, how
will he take care of the church of God?)
“Not a novice, lest being puffed up with pride he fall into the same
condemnation as the devil.”
“Moreover he MUST HAVE A GOOD TESTIMONY AMONG THOSE WHO ARE
OUTSIDE, lest he fall into reproach and the snare of the devil.”
Titus 1:5-16
“For this reason, I left you in Crete, that you should SET IN ORDER THE THINGS
THAT ARE LACKING , and appoint in every city as I commanded you.”
“IF A MAN IS BLAMELESS, THE HUSBAND OF ONE WIFE, HAVING FAITHFUL
CHILDREN not accused of dissipation or insubordination.”
“For a Bishop MUST BE BLAMELESS, AS A STEWARD OF GOD, not self willed, not
quick-tempered, not given to wine, not violent, not greedy for money, but
HOSPITABLE, A LOVER OF WHAT IS GOOD, SOBER-MINDED, JUST, HOLY,
SELF-CONTROLLED.”
“Holding fast the faithful word he has been taught, THAT HE MAY BE ABLE, BY
SOUND DOCTRINE, BOTH TO EXHORT AND CONVICT THOSE WHO CONTRADICT.”
“THEY PROFESS TO KNOW GOD, BUT IN WORKS THEY DENY HIM, being
abominable, disobedient, and disqualified for every good work.”
