Dear Nickol,
I just wanted to let you know that you and you're daughter were a blessing to me this weekend at the Symposium. I haven't had a chance to e-mail Rick (Young) yet, but I thought I would just let you know that it was an honor and a blessing to recieve from you and Rick, and I thank you for your prayers and the training and the literature.
It opened my eyes a lot to worship. I saw your instructional video on Youtube last night and almost fell out of my chair. My friend put on some videos about flag worship specifically for me last night not knowing that you were on there and when yours showed up I was like wow,...God is awesome!
I was worshipping the way I was taught at (my pastor's) house. Some missionaries from Isreal were there and they told me, "God noticed you today, and you captured His heart." It was just a time between me and Him. My pastors house has 2 living room areas and I was near the first living room worshipping to one of the songs our team was playing and I felt so totally connected in the spirit it was amazing! Thank you again and God bless you and your ministry. You totally touched my life.
Sincerely, Thomas G. California, USA
As long as I can remember I have loved playing with color and design. Art and creativity has always been in me.
The Lord has blessed our family so that I am able to be a stay at home wife & mother of four children, I home school the elder two who enjoy dress up and pretend play. It was because of my daughters love for costumes and dressing up I began dyeing silk for play. With leftover material I made my first worship flags and began using flags in worship at home.
My daughters would take these first flags and use them at our church. I soon began receiving requests from others wanting me to make flags for them. However it was months before I began using them myself in a corporate setting, and that was at the back of the church where I would not be seen.
I had walked under the bondage of fear and rejection like many christians and was too intimidated to raise my hands in public worship. The lies I had believed were numerous, but stepping out in worship with flags was a breakthrough for me, and an answer to the calling on my life to be a flag-bearer of the Lord with Boldness.
I have experienced new and greater levels of freedom in worship as I continue to obey the Leadings of the Spirit and step out in new situations with the flags. I experience a great joy in worship, now with dance and sometimes spontaneous worship songs. The presence of the Lord will visit strongly at times when the flags are used welcome His presence.
When new designs are created it is in partnership with the Holy Spirit. I am not always in control of the depth of color or extra slashes that happen on flags that I am making to fill someones order. If a flag is not lquite right the Holy Spirit will let me know, and when I am supposed to send something a little different that the order that has been placed the Holy Spirit will guide me.
I recieved an order from a woman at my homegroup who wanted a light and dark pink flag. she was not clear or able to express exactly lwhat she wanted, but I told her in faith that I would wait until I had the right design for her.
Two mornings later I woke up with a vision of colors flowing down and outward, and I heard the words waves of mercy and grace. I was very eager to start on this new design that the Holy Spirit gave to me.
When I gave her the pink flags she was very excited. She told me that this flag was exactly what she had been wanting and was unable to express. What a confirmation and blessing for the both of us that the Lord knows the desires of our hearts and is able to share it even when we don't have the words.
A sister in Maine shared this video of herself and two other worshippers using three large pairs of
Raise Up A Standard
flags in a presentation on Oct. 5, '07.
The flags they are using are Solid Lavender, Living Waters and Refiner's Fire.
Dancing and using flags is a beautiful and powerful way to worship.
Thanks so much for sharing!
