Report of Waterways Assignment for Lavaca County:
On Friday, January 26th, Denise Lewis and Ellen May met at the home of Glenn and Barbara Michalcik at 10:00 a.m. to complete the Waterways Assignment for Lavaca County.
Denise read the dream given to Gina Gholston that inspired this call to action. Barbara passed out the coins and badges that were the official passes to carry out this assignment.
On Thursday, January 25th, the Navidad River that is located one mile from the Michalcik's house was flooded six feet deep over the roadway to the bridge. Miraculously, it had receded off the road by the next morning when Glenn checked it. The gravel road was rutted and muddy at that time.
After strategies were decided, the group proceeded to the Navidad Bridge. Amazingly, the county had come and graded the road in the meanwhile, "making a way where there seemed to be no way." Praise the Lord!
After arriving and standing on the bridge, Barbara read prayers for the protection of the waterways, and Glenn (who brought along a staff) read the decrees. Denise read Psalm 91, and Ellen prayed in the spirit and looked up on her phone where these waters ended up. We prayed over the dam at Lake Texana. Denise asked what Navidad meant? Out of Barbara's spirit rose the words "Feliz Navidad", having never put the two together before! Ellen looked it up, and it meant "Christmas" and "Natvity"! We were amazed and began to declare the new life and restoration these healing waters would bring forth. As the waters of the Nile were turned to blood, so these waters signifying the birth of Christ carry his healing blood through the land, even cleansing the sin of abortion.
Glenn also shared a myth in this area about a man called "the wild man of the Navidad."
We then proceeded into Hallettsville City Limits, we stopped across from a bottling plant that bottles water and soda water. Denise Lewis prayed over the huge tank that houses the water used for distribution.
We proceed through town turning on FM 957 and turned left to a bridge that crosses the Lavaca River. We were able to sit on a side structure on the east bank of the river. We notice a cable in the water hanging from a tree (probably used as a swing across the river). This river was also at the flood stage just two days before, cresting at 27 feet. The Navidad River crested at 31.6.
We followed the same procedure at the Lavaca River as we did at the Navidad River. Ellen May was looking up where these waters went and found that both the Navidad and Lavaca run through Lake Texana into Lavaca Bay then Matagorda Bay. Matagorda Bay opens into the Intercoastal Waterway which is a shipping lane along the Texas coast. So these waters flow into into waters that help to transport supplies.
Lavaca means cow. Barbara Michalcik had a quickening to declare, "the Lord owns the cattle on a thousand hills," and restoration was coming to ranchers after experiencing two years of dought and loss.
Glenn Michalcik took his staff and drew a cross and an arrow in the sand of the east bank of the Lavaca River. He also noticed wild onions were growing there.
The foursome then proceeded to the Lavaca County Courthouse Square to enjoy a covenant meal at El Vaqueros. Glenn blessed the food, and fellowship was shared.
Assignment complete.
Bless you & thank you!
