HAD A WOMEN SAY ME YESTERDAY IN A PUBLIC LIBRARY AFTER LISTENING TO ME TALK TO A SISTER IN CHIRST AND WAS ENCOURAGING HER CONCERNING A SITUATIONS. SHE HAD GVING UP GOING TO CHURCH AND GOD BECAUSE THERE ARE SOMETHINGS THAT HAPPEN TO ME AND WHERE WAS HE, WHY IS HE NOT DOING ANYHING, I TRY AND I TRY!
LISTENING TO HER HEART AND THEN SHE SAID, HE DOES NOT WANT HER AND HE NOT DOING ANYTHING FOR HER AND SHE WAS DONE WITH GOD AND SHE KNOW HE IS DONE WITH HER. I HAD TO ASK HER DOES SHE BELEIVE GOD IS DONE WITH HER AND SHE IS OKAY WITH THAT, SHE REALLY COULD NOT EXPLAIN.
HOWEVER, I ASKED HER IF SHE RECEIVED JESUS AS LORD AND SAVIOR, SHE QUICKLY SAID. THEN SHE BEGAN TO SAY, I UNDERSTAND ABOUT SALVATION AND I DO NOT UNDERSTAND WHY WOULD GOD SAY IN HIS WORD "I AM GOING TO HOLD YOU ACCOUNTABLE FOR EVERY IDLE WORD (FAITHLESS WORD THAT COME OUT OF YOUR MOUTH)" IT'S CONDTRADICTORY AND WHAT IS THE POINT?
I ASKED HER DID SHE BELIEVE THAT WE ARE NOT ACCOUNTABLE? GOD'S WAYS ARE NOT OUR WAYS, THOUGHTS ARE NOT OUR THOUGHTS THEY ARE HIGHER AND WE DO HAVE A RESPONSIBLITY AND ACCOUTNABILITY TO HIM FOR EVERYTHING, HE DOES, DID HIS PART, WE HAVE OURS. I SAID TO HER GOD MOVES IN PEOPLES LIVES AND WE MUST SURRENDER OUR LIVE AND BE WILLING TO LET HIM DO THAT. HER ANSWER, WAS SHE TRIED AND TRIED AND HE HAS DONE NOTHING.
I SHARED WITH HER TESTIMONIES OF WHAT GOD HAS DONE IN PEOPLES LIVES AND THE HARD, HURT, DISAPPOINTED AND SOMEWHAT PRIDEFUL ATTITUDE THAT WAS COMING FROM HER PREVIOUSLY BEGAN TO CHANGE(HER COUNTENANCE) THERE WAS A LOOK OF AMAZEMENT, A SMILE THAT CAME UPON HER FACE. BEFORE WE DEPARTED WAY, i LET HER KNOW THAT I WOULD BEING PRAYING FOR HER. i MAY NEVER SEE HER AGAIN BUT, AS MUCH AS SHE SAID, WHY ISN'T GOD DOING ANYTHING, HE DID AND WAS--HE USED ME TO SPEAK TO HER AND MAYBE SHE WILL GET THAT BY HOLY SPIRIT BRING TO HER REMEMERANCE "GOD WAS SPEAKING TO YOU, YOU ENCOUNTER GOD THORUGH THE WOMEN YOU MET IN THE LIBRARY AND WAS SPEAKING WITH YOU AND TOLD YOU GOD LOVES YOU!"
WE CAN OFTERN TIMES LOOK FOR THE SPECTACULAR AS JESUS SPOKE TO ONE MAN OF GOD WHEN HE HAD AN ENCOUNTER WITH JESUS AND HE SPOKE TO THE MAN OF GOD ABOUT PRAY. WE SHOULD NOT BE LOOKING FOR THE SPECTACULAR BUT, KNOW THAT WHEN WE PRAY IN THE SPIRIT WE ARE MAKING A IMPACT---JESUS SAID. JESUS SHOWED OUR BRO. IN CHRIST WHAT HAPPENS WHEN WE PRAY IN THE SPIRIT AND THE DEVIL OPPRESSING PEOPLE WAS BEING DESTROY, THE DEMONS WERE BEING REMOVED, CAUSING THEM TO FLEE, OUR PRAYER WE SHOCK WAVES MOVING ALSO UPON THE EARTH. THEREFORE, WE ARE NOT TO STOP PRAYING IN THE SPIRIT! WE CAN MISS OUR APPOINTMENTS LIKE THE CHILDREN OF ISAREL DID WHEN JESUS ENTERED INTO JERSUALEM AND SO MANY REJECTED HIM AND JESUS SAID, "OH HOW I LONGED TO GATHER YOU TO MYSELF LIKE A MOTHER HEN GATHERS HER CHICKS BUT, YOU WOULD NOT' "YOU MISSED YOUR APPOINTED TIME"
IT IS IMPORTANT THAT WE LET THE LORD USE US EVEN IN TALKING AND SHARING WITH STRANGERS NOT JUST FAMILY, FRIENDS. MAKE YOURSELF AVAILABLE IF YOU HAVE NOT TO BE USED BY GOD AND DO NOT LET THE DEVIL INTIMIDATE YOU, CAUSE YOU TO BE FEARFUL ETC. GO FORTH AND KEEP IT MOVING IN OUR LORD AND SAVIOR THEN GIVE GOD THE GLORY!
SHALOM!
