Shift in the wind:)

Hey friendys:)

           Hey guys so just wanted to give a quick update on my life right now. So i was packed up and on my way to LA with much excitement. I made a stop in KC to visit my best friends who will be leaving in a few months to go over seas and preach the gospel and see lives transformed by the love of God for the next 2 years. It was by far one of the best weeks ever full of laughs and tears and awesome amazing freedom. While i was in kc there was a sudden shift in the wind for my move to LA.

          So long story short the doors just clearly closed for me going to LA right now. The door to housing closed suddenly and the finances just didn't come in. I know this looks like i just lost faith and didn't stand with Gods promises to provide but i actually did and still am and believe that this is the Lords faithfulness to shut the door and shift me in a different direction for this season. I will still go to LA and still see the promises of God just in His perfect timing. See while i was praying about all of this as it looked like my dreams were floating away from me, God asked me a profound question " Do you think you can still shift heaven and dream the dreams of my heart for Cali and the nations even if i send you back to Oklahoma?" This question started an even bigger dreaming for me. I am so excited to be back home and entering into a more focused season of intersession for the dreams of Gods heart for the nations of the earth. Its my joy to partner with Him and i know that even if I'm not in a big ministry or in a cool place i stand in the greatest place before the throne of my Papa interceding on behalf of this nation and the nations of the earth. This is where my heart comes alive and at the end of the day and into eternity i want Him to say " You were my friend." This is the greatest call in whatever it looks like.

        So practically i will be at home in Oklahoma with my family for at least the next 6 months. I feel like this is not a waiting season but i feel its a season full of encounter and dreaming and I'm very excited. There are many opportunities to also travel and walk out what has been birthed in the prayer closet, so keep your eyes and ears open for future updates and how you can sow into what God is doing in and through my life.  Please feel free to post prayer requests for me as i go into my prayer room/ bedroom and stand with you. I love you all dearly and I'm blessed to stand with all of you in the dreams of His heart and seeing you live them out.  Thanks for all your prayers and encouragement.

The big move and the door to destiny :)

Hey Friends:)

                   While i was in Africa i had an encounter with the Lord where He gave me the keys to California and pleaded with me " Please, never settle for less then the fullness! Please never settle for less than full on revival and a mass missions movement to come out of California!!!Please never settle for less than a City, State and nation fully giving to God and His dreams!" Ive taking this call as a mandate to get completely caught up in the dreams and desires of Gods heart.

                   So in 2 weeks i will be on my way to LA the city of angels and the birthing place of my calling:) Im beyond excited about the move tho a little stressed and sad to leave home. I only have a week left here in Oklahoma and then onto kc to say goodbye to some of my best friends as they journey to the nations for 2 years giving their lives to the dreams of God. After that i will meet up with my friendy Maddie and we will drive down to Pasadena togther where we will meet up with The Call team and begin a 40 day fast for God to raise up another student missions movement being sent out into the hardest, darkest and most unreached places of the earth. During and after all of this i will still be working with the call as well as working with the LA dream center and just sowing into what God has for SoCal and the promises for that place.

                  During all of this i will also be job searching and getting settled in LA. Although i will be working i feel like the Lord is leading me to still raise support for the move and to envite people to support me monthly. This will help with my living as well as different missions trips i will be taking. God is in control and im fully believing that my Father provides all of my needs. If you would like to be a part of what God is doing in this nation and the nations of the earth you can donate at the tope of this page or contact me via this blog or email. Im looking to raise at least $1000 before i go and then anyone who feels lead to support monthly is awesome. Pray and be lead by the Lord on how you can help. Thanks everyone. I will continue to update and keep everyone posted on what Gods doing.

                                                                      Love Hayli Dover

The next step:)

 Hey again friendys!!!

             I know i just wrote the longest update you've ever scene but i want to shoot a vision for whats next. So like i said in my last post I learned how to dream again. Well let me share with you my dream and what has been my dream for the past 2 and half years when i fist moved to the house of prayer and began running with a team called the Call.

             So two and half years ago i visited Southern California for the first time. I thought it would just be a fun trip where we did some evangelism and see some people healed and touched but i never knew that it would be the place where i got marked for everything that I'm called to do. Before i went i had gotten all these words and pictures given to me about the harvest and the nations of the earth and how i was going to be a part of the nations coming to know the Lord. I didn't quite understand what that meant nor did i even know where to start with that. While we were in SoCal i began to get lots of clarity as i heard different stories of a missions movement that came out of Pasadena and how there would be one greater that would shake the nations for the Lord.

       As i heard story after story of what God had for California unto the dream of the Lords heart for the nations of the earth i began to burn. I even began say things like " i could just move to LA and minister and see revival and then go into the nations and see revival." Over the next few months I began to burn hotter and hotter even to the point where i would weep over the Lords dreams for California and for revival. I kept praying and praying and dreaming of moving to Cali one day and being a part of what God would do in that place and what God would do out of that place to the Nations of the earth. Over the next few years or so i began to push this dream to the side thinking thoughts like " I'm too small, I'm not good enough and it doesn't look like everyone elses dream." But over the past 7 or 8 months God has set me free to dream again beyond all the accusations. We were made for great things and we were made to dream the dreams of God and to live them out on the earth. Your not to small because your Father is big enough and He wants to use us.

    Like i said in my last post while i was in Africa i began to dream. I began to come alive in the dreams God has givin me for California and for the nations of the earth. Theres alot more i could explain with different dreams and words and how i feel like this next journey may look but ill just keep it simple haha if that's possible.

    In February i will be packing up and moving to LA and joining the Call and their next step in standing on these promises for revival and the nations knowing the name of Jesus and thousands of souls coming into the kingdom. Ill be working with the call and the house of prayer there in Pasadena but also taking root in LA and working in the streets with the people and carrying the love of God into that city and seeing revival breakout from the inner cities to Hollywood, from the projects to the the whole of California and unto the nations of the earth. I don't have it all figured out and i don't know what it all looks like but I'm going for the dream of God for my life and it may look crazy and it may not make since but its what i was made for.

  As i take this next step remember to pray for me and if anyone has it on there heart to support me financially you can donate above. I will be working when i move out but any support would help me in my move and help me start out. Thank you guys for believing in me through my journey. I couldn't do it without yall. Ill keep updating and if you have any questions about all of this feel free to ask.

My season in Africa :)

Hey Friendys:)                                                                    ( its long but worth reading)
 
                I know its been a while. I just wanted to give a quick overview of my time in Africa and then shoot a vision for whats happening next in my life. So as most of you know i just attended a missions school in Mozambique Africa with a ministry called Iris. I spent 3 months on the east coast of southern Africa experiencing the things of God like i never have before. We had daily classes with different missionaries from all over the world who shared there stories and visions with the goal of us 300 or so students catching the vision of God for our lives. We did weekly practical missions such as going to the hospital and praying for the sick which was mine. Others did all kinds of things from children's programs to loving on the prostitutes to working on houses in the village that had no roofs and such. Then every week a few teams would be sent out into the bush bush to minister and share the gospel to some villages who had never heard of Jesus or the transforming power of His love. We saw many healed and many saved and many lives transformed by the love of God. Then at the end of the school some headed home to spend Christmas with there families and some headed to other missions trip and then some of us stayed and did 10 days in the bush bush.

          Three or four teams of about 20 or so people headed into different villages to be the hands and feet of Jesus to those that had never heard His name. This was definitely the hardest thing Ive ever done in my entire life. Being faced with the warfare of each village we visited along with rain, bugs, LOTS of dirt and different sicknesses that hit our team as we went from village to village. And just when we thought what we were doing was pointless God would show up and we would see the most amazing transformations and healing. For example about 4 days in to our 10 day journey i saw the scripture that states " His power is made perfect in our weakness" come alive in an amazing way. It all started when i was just having a tough day. I was tired and dirty and annoyed and i was just done and ready to head home. As we were all just hanging and living life together i decided to go out and take pictures of the kids. I walked out of the fenced area and found 3 little kids with there parents and an older man. I started snapping pictures and the older man started asking me something. I couldn't understand but this is when my friend Joy came out and helped me translate because she speaks the language. We find out that he has a bad tooth infection and wants us to pull his tooth for him. Now i was definitely not about to pull this guys tooth so i just asked if we could pray for him. He said yes. we asked if he knew Jesus and he said " yes I'm a christian and I'm very close to Jesus." W start to pray and we lay hands on his very swollen face and commanded the healing of Jesus to come. See the infection was so bad that his face was very swollen and you could hear the infection gurgling in his throat. So we keep praying and he says " its ready to be healed." we pray one more time and his face began to twitch under our hands. Then the unbelievable happens. His cheek shrinks right under our hands. Me and Joy were amazed. We asked the man how it was and he said " its all better, theres no more pain, Jesus healed me its all gone!" Even the gurgling had left his voice, the man had been completely healed. We were amazed and then Jesus came again when we invited a young man to come and receive prayer.

       The young man had a cataract on his eye which made him completely blind in that eye. we prayed a couple of times and each time the eye got better. We would cover his good eye and ask what He could see and gradually he could see how many fingers i was holding up and then he could describe what we looked like. by the end of us praying he told us there was no more problem he was completely healed. Me and Joy were amazed and ran into to share with our team what had happened. That was just one example of how the Lord met us on our 10 day journey. I know i speak for my whole team when i say our lives were very much so changed in that 10 days. We saw the hand of the Lord move in miracles of salvation and healing and the transformation of hearts by the love of God. Not only did we see many lives transformed but our lives were transformed in the process. which brings me to my final thing about my time in Africa.
     
      Tho i went to Africa as a vessel of the Lord and a zealous lover ready to change the world i was the one who was changed. I like to say that i thought i went to save Africa but Africa saved me. This 3 months was the most life changing 3 months of my life. I learned who i am and who I'm called to be through the gentle healing of my best best friend Jesus and the mighty revelation of My identity as a daughter of God. I got so much out of this school. I made best friends and i fell in love with those kids and i fell in love with Jesus like never before. But the greatest thing that i gained form my time in the Harvest School was that i got my dream back.

     During the school I was surrounded by mothers and fathers that our so for what God has called me to do. They heard story after story and testimony after testimony about getting caught up in the dream and destiny of God for my life. So as i began to dream again i found an open door to my future and to the plan of God for me. That open door is my move to California. I will share this in my next post so go read it and catch the vision of God and find your own through it.

I thought i was coming to minister to Africa but Africa is ministering to me:)

Hey Guys!!!

    Wow God is sooo amazing:) Im now ending week 8 of my time here in Mozi Africa. Its been crazy awesome. I updated last on week three so alot has happened since then. Weve had more amazing speakers sharing their hearts and stories and  leaving us with precious jewels pushing us further into our destinies a sons and daughters of the most high God. 

    The past couple of weeks Papa God has been truly wrecking me with who I am in Him in many ways. We had a speaker Jason Lee Jones from Georgia here for a couple of weeks. He is an amazing worship leader who carries the Fathers heart to see us walk in Sonship and enter into the realms of heaven that we were made for. In one of His classes that week He taught on the spirit of adoption and shared His story of the adoption of His 2 precious babies. At the end of class He had us all stand and He began to read the court order finalizing the adoption. Him and his wife rewrote it as if it we Father God was finalizing His adoption and us becoming His children. It was such a powerful moment and that was defiantly a turning point of breakthrough in the school for me personally. 

   After this a couple of days later I head into the bush bush with my color group. I was kind of nervous because being in the bush bush is way out of my comfort zone in many ways. So let me expand on the bush bush. So basically each weekend they send 3 teams into 3 different villages some reached some unreacted. We all load up into big trucks some with covers some with none and journey anywhere from 2 to 12 hours away on bumpy dirt roads to spend a couple of days basically living in tents in the heart of  the village loving on the children and the people, praying for the sick and preaching the gospel through the Jesus film that is in the local language of the village normally macooa or macandi.  Those two days were full of lots of dirt and uncomfortable heat but abounding in the most beautiful children and families ive ever encountered and was definitely the highlight of my time here in Africa thus far. 

   Our team, the red color group went 4 hours away to a beautiful village and saw the mighty hand of the Lord move in ways that were mind blowing and unreal at times.  So the first night we arrive at the village to a crowd of people that were waiting to see the Jesus film and receive prayer. It was wild to see so many people hungry for a touch from God. So we quickly set up our tents and prepare for the Jesus film. After the film we did ministry time to pray for the sick and for those who wanted to receive Jesus into there hearts. Many came forward but it was hard to know what we were praying for because we only had a couple of translators. Luckily hand motions and the few phrases  learned in macooa got the point across. Praise God that he can move and heal regardless of our human weaknesses such as language barriers. Almost everyone I prayed for that night got healed or received Jesus but my favorite testimony was that of a mama and her baby. So at the beginning of the ministry time my stomach had started hurting really bad and i didn't know why but I felt to just keep praying for people. One of the Mamas came to me and she had her baby with here rapped in a capulana. I asked how i could pray and she pointed to the babies stomach. I laid hands and began to pray for the baby to be healed of whatever was wrong since i didn't really know what was wrong. As i began to pray the pain in my stomach started to leave and by the end of the prayer it was completely gone. At once the baby wakes up and wants to eat. I grabbed one the translators and had him ask what was wrong. The mama said the baby had a stomach issue and was in alot of pain so much so it hadnt eaten in days but as i prayed the baby woke up and ate for the first time in 3 days. 

   Over the next 2 days we went door to door through the village and saw many healed and saved and touched by the love of God. My favorite was the children. I truly fell in love with them and didn't want to leave at all. I taught them how to draw butterflies in the sand and how to thumbs up for pictures. It was a blast just stopping for the one and rolling in the dirt with these beautiful jewels of Gods heart.  The last day we met with the chief and queen of the village and i had the privilege of sharing how grateful and honored we were to be welcomed in to there village and how God was doing many things there. The chief ended up giving Iris a peace of land in that village to build a church. This was such a great and mighty thing for that village and Im so excited to see what God does through the ongoing transformation of hearts and minds in that beautiful place. As we left that saturday afternoon prolly around 50 children from the village chased the camion yelling " Thumbs up hayli, thumbs up!" I cried so hard because I just wanted to stay and love and live in that village. I fell in love with bush bush and my heart will never recover.   

   With 2 weeks of class left and 4 weeks of my stay here in Africa I have an expectant heart that God isn't finished and He has so much still in store here for all of us students and for this beautiful country. Thanks for all your prayers and support and feel free to email me any words or dreams or any prayer requests. 

                                                               Much love ,Hayli Dover

Africa the Bautiful:)

    Hey friends and family:) Just wanted to give an update on what Gods doing here in Mozi Africa:) So we are closing week 3 and its been crazy thus far. I cant believe its going by so fast. So the for the first week was super awesome. Lots of new friends and new adventures, learning the culture and loving on the babies. I have to say it is a culture shock to be honest. The kids are so beautiful and great but my heart is so overwhelmed with the poverty and neediness of these little girls and boys.  Its such a privilege to share it the Lords heart for his children. 

    The first week we also had Steve and Sandra Long from Toronto in class. They spoke on the Father heart and just lead our class through lots of inner healing and just getting rid of our false mind sets on the issue of God as our Father. This was a tough but sweet week for me personally. I feel like this season is a season of not so much pouring out, tho I am ministering and loving on the people here, but more of a season of receiving lots of healing and just a huge download of identity which will set me into my calling and destiny. 

   So this past week we had Amy Lancaster from Mississippi here. She is so amazing for real. She ministers and lives amongst the drug dealers and prostitutes in Jackson Mississippi spreading the raw and unconditional love of Jesus to them. So many cool testimonies of lives changed and God breaking in with healing of hearts and minds. She is by far my favorite teacher thus far and as far as im concerned she could teach the entire school and i would love that. 

   So thats a quick update of the past 3 weeks but i also wanted to give some of what daily life here is like. So i live in a kinda like house with 27 girls. Its called the house of peace. The set up is unlike most houses here on the base because we have 5 bedrooms and then or bathrooms and kitchen is outside kinda haha. its hard to explain but we are beyond blessed for sure. I love my roommates so much and we have all bonded alot already. So funny stuff is we rarely have running water or electricity so we all get so excited we all get when its on and wee go fill eveything we can find that holds water so we can take bucket showers every so often. We call this "embracing the jank!" Its rough some days but its all worth it for the sake of the kingdom haha. Ok so We have classes monday through thursday from 8-1ish depending on if Mama Heidi is speaking or not haha. Shes so precious and gets so excited in class. Then in the afternoons we can either go to the baby house, to town, village, play with the village and iris kids or we can just chill. Once a week we all have a practical mission for example building houses, feeding the village kids, or going and ministering to the prostitutes on the streets. The Lord placed me in the hospital group so every week me and my team go into the hospital and pray for the sick and just love on the people there. Im very excited for what God is gonna do through us over the next weeks. Also we are split up into teams to go on a weekend outreach to the bush bush. My group goes on November 8th so please be praying for the hand of the Lord to move in signs and wonders and lots of salvations. Well there is so much i could say but i would have to write a book but know that God is doing so much for real and we are all growing so much. I miss yall so much and i cant wait to share more. Also if you have any prayer requests let me know. Ok well keep me posted:) 

3 days at home and 6 days to board:)

            Hey yall:) Wow I only have 3 days left here in Oklahoma then i embark with the family to Stlouis where Monday i board a plane to South Africa:) I'm exploding with excitement for what Gods gonna do but I'm gonna be honest this has been the busiest week of my entire life. Ive never packed and unpacked so many times in 3 days time. By the 2nd and 3rd time i decided i may be going naked in Mozi:) haha jk jk. As a result of a protective and kinda nervous about sickness and cleanliness mama i have ALOT of stuff to pack:) Its insane haha.
                      This is from shopping day one:) 90 days worth of tooth brushes:) Oh moms

             Although its all busy and crazy right now I'm very excited. All this is kinda surreal and I'm so expectant for what the Lord is gonna do in me and all the students hearts when we get there. God is moving in the nations of the earth right now like never before. The gospel is going forth in power and love. Ears are hearing, eyes are seeing and the broken hearts are being mended. I'm so blessed that God would choose weak and broken vessels such as myself to be His hands and feet and to turn the world upside down for His name sake.

           I want everyone to check this blog while I'm in Africa. This is where i will update whats happening and what the Lord is doing. This is an exciting time and I want everyone to get caught up in the story and plan of God in this exciting time in history:) Also i want all of you to cover me in prayers and feel free to send prayer requests to me as we:) Wow 3 days whooohooo lets go Jesus haha:)

          One more note i still need $750 to be fully funded for this trip:) if you would like to give you can donate at the top of this page or contact me. While I'm gone my family will have all my bank and paypal stuff so if you want to give but cant now please feel free to sow while I'm gone and my parents will get it to me. It all helps:) thanks everyone:) love you guys
