M16 Ministries

As 2014 comes to a close this week I would like to share with you some of the incredible ways God has been using us in ministry. The first 21 days of the New Year, Lisa and I like going on a Daniel Fast to listen for direction from God. In January we also were invited to go speak at Bethel Church, for Bob and Kimberly Johnson ministries, where I spoke on two of my favorite topics, Mystical Theology, and Spiritual Warfare. This was an exciting time and it was a lot of fun. January pretty much flew by, no sooner than Lisa and I had finished our Daniel Fast, we were given the first house haunting case for the New Year. As most of you already know, M16 Ministries is not strictly a spiritual warfare ministry, we also lead homeless ministry in San Francisco, with Night Strike, and we also equip and lead people into prophetic ministry venues not readily accessible to the average Christian believer. Night Strike Night Strike is our street ministry, occurring every second Friday of the...

We had an incredible night in ministry on Friday evening, November 28, 2014, it was the night immediately after Thanksgiving. Angela met up with Lisa and I as we did an impromptu Night Strike in the TL. As we drove into the city across the bay bridge I commented on what a beautiful evening this was turning out to be. Not a cloud in the sky, no fog. From the bay bridge we could clearly see the lights of the Golden Gate bridge, yes, it was one of those unusually clear and beautiful nights in the city. As we pulled into the parking area on Fulton, it was immediately clear there were an unusually high number of homeless people out on the streets this evening. Once we parked the car, we made our way over to the traditional meeting area of the horse statute with our bags of items to distribute to the people there. Along the wall of the Asian art museum, there were a lot of people bedding down for the night. We hung around the statue for about 20 minutes until the area died down from a...

Cleansing Stream :: A Journey of Discovery Katheline Monnier and I will be teaching another session of Cleansing Streams at Valley Christian Center Church in Dublin, this autumn. We are to love God with all our heart and all our mind and all our strength. Sometimes in life the enemy can put us through trials and even life traumas that prevent us from going to our heavenly Father with all our heart and all our strength. Let’s face it we’ve all been beaten down at sometime in our lives. Whether you're wanting to learn how to partner with Jesus in healing your own broken heart and being set free, or acquiring the tools and guidance to equip yourself to heal the broken hearted and set others free, Cleaning Stream is the course to start your journey. In this class you will learn how to develop a deeper relationship with your heavenly Father and The Holy Spirit. You will learn how to commit your life to God, even in the midst of seemingly unbeatable trials. You will learn how t...

I can't believe June is almost here. Where did the first couple of months of 2014 go? We're a small but very busy ministry. As most of you know, I have been pulled in from my old career for full time ministry. That cut my ministry team in half, Lisa is working 3 jobs now to keep the finances in the black for our household. A lot of my ministry has been solo, hopefully only for the time being, until we can work out this Holy re-org with finances no longer coming in as they once did in the software engineering career. Needless to say, I have been very busy and haven't really had time to produce a newsletter. I have broken down our activities in the following sections. Night Strike  For everyone who has come out and supported Night Strike ministry - BLESSINGS to you! It's an incredible ministry that goes out on the 2nd and 4th Fridays of every month and we minister to the homeless, drug addicts, and prostitutes on the streets of San Francisco. We work around, but are...

Night Strike Recap for Friday May 09 2014 Sometimes I wish I could go out more often on the streets and help serve these incredible people. It was another phenomenal night on the streets. The ferocious May winds were causing a horrible chill. Yes, the worst time to be in San Francisco is in May. Market Street was a wind tunnel. Some of our friends who endure the rain were already packing up and seeking shelter from the piercing wind. It was cold! We had a great time on the streets ministering to the people. One gentleman, Bob, who found the M16 Ministries web site, brave the winds to come meet us at the plaza and find out what we're all about. Rick and Rich, along with my son, Josh, and a woman, I believe her name was Kate, set off for the Tenderloin. Brian, Mary, Lori (Happy Birthday!!), Mike, and Missty, went down Market St. I took a team, Dennis, Michelle, Dale, Cindy, and Bob went over to the Bill Graham. We encountered lots of people on the streets. Some more clever a...

Night Strike recap Friday March 14, 2014 What a Difference Worship Makes! It's great to have a worship team back out with us on Night Strike. We see lot's of miracles and life impacting touches from the heavenly Father when we're out on the streets. But when you add a worship team to the mix and keep an open heaven - we see so much more going on in the street ministry. David and Josette Brown actually started leading worship two weeks ago on a wet rainy Night Strike. Last night it was a gorgeous night in the city. The worship music was well received. We had homeless and people just walking by, stop and sit at the pedestal of the statue and and enjoy the worship music. For those of you old Night Strikers, you know the leadership position changes when you have a worship team and you now need to stay back at the plaza to be the bouncer for them. It's San Francisco anything can happen. We had all sorts of people come by us and some even stayed. Some people tipped t...

M16 Ministries – Where We’ve Been in 13 and Where We’re Going in 14  I know it’s February 2014 and here I am finally getting back to what happened in 2013. In my perspective, 2013 was a whirlwind adventure for M16 Ministries. We equipped churches in prophetic street ministry and deliverance. We hosted extreme prophetic ministry outreaches at street fairs and New Age psychic expos. We look for venues that are crying out spiritually. I don’t disclose where we go. But it’s off the hook ministry. Why do we go to these places? It takes a special ministry team and God wants to show these people how much He loves them. When we come in the love of the Father we are embraced by the people at these events. They are in turn deeply impacted by the words and destiny spoken over them. IT’s been a long relationship and trust building journey. At these venues, God spoke to around 300 or more people in our encounters booths. Validation from God at a psychic expo As many of you know Re...

The following is a video segment from the Friday January 17 Equipping for Spiritual Warfare sessions that were held in Redding, Ca through Bob and Kimberly Johnson Ministries . The video and audio aren't so great on this. I record sessions on my iphone to review for what I need do better in future talks. So this is M16 Ministries raw and unplugged - so to speak. It was a 2 day seminar on spiritual warfare. On Friday evening I spoke extensively on the subject of mystical theology and Saint Teresa of Avila's Interior Castle. Here is a segment on the Sixth dwelling places and how I tie the states of mystical theology back into states of torment used by the enemy. I share stories from M16 Ministries past warfare experiences in these as well. Enjoy! Mystical Theology Sixth DP from Michael Norton on Vimeo . Blessings Rev.
