My first experience at CAP (Conferencia Apostólica y Profética, translated as Apostolic and Prophetic Conference) was unforgettable. Every year, thousands of people from all over the world from different races and backgrounds gather at the American Airlines Arena for three days in October to have an experience with the living God. The event is set to usually take on the first Thursday, Friday, and Saturday of the month.

I attended high school during the first annual conference that I went to in October of 2011. I remember calling out sick for those events because I had enormous expectation of what would happen to my spiritual life in those three days. During that time, I was going through a struggle in my personal and social life. It was the beginning of my junior year, and I had to surrender a lot of my studies to have more time to God. I was ridiculed in school because I chose to opt out of rigorous classes and took easier courses so that I could have time to do the works of the ministry. I had to die to my ego of graduating in a good university in order so that God could continue to guide me to the right path. Not only that, but I was having enormous problems in my house with my family, and I would have to battle between being present for them and serving God. I asked God to do an unforgettable change at CAP.

The last session on the evening of Saturday was one of the most memorable that I’ve ever had. I remember that our pastor was preaching to the thousands of people on having an experience of God, and having a passion for his presence. Halfway into the message, he began to cry immensely while preaching, and he bowed to the stage that he was at. He got down on his knees and began to worship God. This humble expression and attitude broke me down into tears.

“I need God more than anything,” I remember him saying. “He is everything to me, the most important person in my life now, and forever.”

The message stopped. The worship team began to play soft music, and cries can be heard from all over the arena. People wept, cried, shouted, and began to pray from all over the AAA. I felt like I was in a trance for almost 45 minutes. Every inch of frustration, stress, worry, and fear began to slowly leave from my body and system, and God started doing a new thing in my heart. I felt like I had entered into an emergency room, and the doctor was performing surgery over my entire body.

I will never forget that experience of being wrecked forever.

The bar will rise again for CAP this year. God has been speaking to the leadership, to the members, and even to me, personally.

“The angel of acceleration came upon me,” Apostle Renny McLean, one of the speakers for CAP, said. “The angel said that he is the accelerator, and he will be coming to CAP to accelerate things over our lives.”

If this doesn’t move anyone, I don’t know what will! Enough is said. CAP will be explosive, tremendous, and incredible! It will take place on October 6, 7, and 8 the entire day at the airlines arena. The lives of everyone that will be going will be forever changed!
