Too Young for the World Race? You Don't Have to Wait!

Going before us

Posted in General Posts by Jonathan Jessee on 8/1/2011

Hey everyone, I just thought I would share what God has been speaking to me lately!

This past weekend I went to the colorado CMA (Chistian Motorcyclist Association) state rally. One of the members talked about a 10 day mission trip she went on with Open Doors ( they smuggle bibles to closed countries) to China. After hearing her speak I felt led to pray for China( I will be going there in Oct.). Then last night I was awakened about 4 am and felt led to pray again. I then felt like I should read some blogs from past racers who were there. In the blogs I read how there was a spiritual darkness. So I was praying for God to shine His light! As I was praying I saw a map of China, it was a dark gray color. Then I saw a small light, then another, then more and more until the whole map was covered in light! Then I heard God speak to me and say ( I am going before you to all the countries but specifically China and opening that which was once closed!! Z Squad will be a light to the nations!!)

Lord I thank You for going before us and making a way! Thank You for opening doors and hearts So we can bring Your light to the darkness!! Thank You Lord for raising a generation for Your Kingdom Purposes!! Thank You Lord for using such as I!! Here Am I send me!!

PS. please pray for China and for Z Squad as we go!!

Why Support Me

Posted in General Posts by Jonathan Jessee on 7/26/2011

      You might ask why should I support this guy, I don't know him or anything about him. Ok, so here is why I joined the race and why I need your support.

       Last year I was praying and seeking God. My prayer was (God I want to know You more. Let Your kingdom come in me and through me. More of You and less of me. ext...). So God's answer was go on the World Race! For the past few years I have felt like I was to be going on a mission trip.

So last Sept. I applied for the Jan 2011 race. I was acepted 1 week before training camp. At the time I had less than $20 to my name. I had to have $1,000 in my acount plus money to get there. And God provided!!

For most of my life I did't fit in, I was left out. I have had very few friends.In school I was made fun of alot. I could be in a room with 20 people or a 1,000 people and feel totally alone. Probably one of the biggest reasons was most of the kids (even at the christain school) and people I was around were more a part of the world and not hungry for God, while I wanted God more than anything. Before I was accepted to the Race i was at a place in my life where I felt so disconnected and what was my purpose. It was like I was just existing.

So in Oct. I went to training camp! Like never before I connected. Finally some people who were like minded. Within days I had found a new family! I found a place I belonged, somewhere I had dreamed about for years! Finally a purpose!

Then due to a lack of funds I was not able to go. My felt like my heart was ripped out, like I had failed yet again. For months I hurt and could not even think about it. Finally I was able to pray about it and the Lord said go in Sept. So I was trasfered to the Sept. Z squad! I went to training camp again not knowing if I could connect like that again. I felt it was taking a major risk to be hurt again if I opened myself again, but even though it wasn't easy I obeyed God.

Once again I found family, I belonged, I had purpose! I feel like I got my heart back! Through this trip many things the Lord has spoken to me/over me through His Word and many godly people will be fulfilled!

But I can't do it alone. I need you!! I am asking that you pray and see if God would lead you to give. It's not just for me but for His kingdom! May God give you a hundred fold return on the seeds you sow! (You may give by clicking on the support me on the left side). The total I need is $14,800. I need to have $6,000 by Aug. 20th, right now I have about $3,300.

Here is a video that Peter(one of my squad mates) made to tell why they need me as much as I need them! Thank you for your gifts and prayers! And thank you Z squad for accepting and loving me! You have made a differance in my life!
