An Annointing

     I have been attending Pastor Coomer's meetings for a little while now.  I really enjoy the fellowship, Word, and the open and honest nature of the place.  It's filled with Love.  You can really feel God there.  There aren't a bunch of masks and faux-ness going on....it's real...it's dirty..and it's heaven down to earth.  It starts off with a meal...Pastor Coomer usually prepares it.  People serve us...or we serve them (I serve sometimes, myself...even making dessert and bringing it for everyone).  We all sit down together and enjoy the meal and fellowship.  Then people get up and do some worship praise songs to get our hearts ready for God's word.  Then we receive the Word from God.  The package that God uses varies every time.  There are a few repeaters...people who come on a semi regular basis...but often times it is someone new.  We receive the word through testimonies, through bible lessons, through sermons...it varies but never enough to not be what you needed.  (Though God, thank you for helping the one man, you know who I am talking about Lord, who yells way too loudly, really hurts our ears (it's not a huge room) and gets way too bent out of shape...a little bit on the negative tip.)  It's just what I have needed.
     Saturday night I came expecting good things.  I was looking forward to getting some wisdom from God, for sure. I had chosen to spend the day with my daughter shopping and fellowshipping, instead of driving to Birmingham to listen to a minister speak at the extension school.  So I was hoping for some good stuff.  I had eaten before arriving, so I arrived a little bit later than normal. (we had a most awesome experience with a delightfully beautiful man who works the pizza liaison station at EarthFare, Corey...such a wonderful time, I hope to be able to bless him in my future.  He prepared the most perfect pizza I had ever seen.  Very tasty, too...mmm hmm.  I will be eating some more of it tonight at Left Over night ala my house.)
     I sat down next to a few of my brothers in Christ.  I love Pastor Little...he always has a warm hand and a kind smile.  I sat with him.  While the praise was going on Brian kept texting me.  Which is kind of rude.  But I found his irritation with my son Nathaniel hilarious as Nathaniel hollared, "God help me!  God help me!,"  over again as Brian refused to get him a cool shiny keychain and  took him out to the car!  Rofl...he kept calling on God to help him in his time of need!  Awesome my little man, just awesome!  The texts happened periodically throughout the service...unfortuneatley for him...not having anything better to do really.
     After the music stopped the pastor mentioned there was going to be the word given and then Phil was going to talk.  I didn't know who that was but was looking forward to it.  I don't recall if he mentioned that he was a prophet, or not.  But Mr. Phil Morgan is a prophet.  Yes indeed.
     It turns out that Phil had been there at an earlier point on the calendar and had said that things would happen in 3 days, 3 weeks, and 3 months.  And sure enough someone there had gotten a job opportunity at that exact time, the ministry had gotten a large donation at one of those times, and a lady had gotten a house.  There were more testimonies I am sure...but not everyone from the last meeting was there...the crowd varies each time to an extent.
    Mr. Morgan talked about the verse God had given him for us, Habakkuk 2:3   For the vision is yet for an appointed time, but at the end it shall speak and not lie; though it tarry, wait for it because it will surely come; wait for it.   That was really powerful in and of itself.  But he expounded on how God would be raising up churches in the area that are focused on the truth and not denominational dogmas and doctrines of men.  He would be bringing down, lessening the churches that are still focused on the doctrines of men.  In the end times He needs the church to be united.  Because as we know a house divided cannot stand.
    Phil prayed for a few people before me.  I prayed for them, as well...and asked God to make sure that I got to be prayed for, as well.  When I got up to the front, not everyone got prayed over, he asked me to put my hands up.  He asked me if I had a purpose, I told him I am in Bible College.  He agreed and asked if I'd been baptized in the Holy Spirit, I said yes, and he told me to pray in  tongues, I did.  He said that God has a call on my life...that I am called to be a prophet....words of wisdom and words of knowledge and that with my hands I would heal people (praise God!)...I could feel the Holy Spirit...I got warmer.  At one point I stopped speaking in tongues and just wept.  Not out of sadness...just appreciation for my lifelong dream coming true...what I had waited for my whole life, was coming to pass....such an amazing experience.  He told me to step into what God called me to do....in my mind, I saw myself stepping..physically stepping into it.  I wanted to step for real...in faith...but I don't know if I did...lol.  Phil said that I was getting red, while this was happening...I could feel the heat in my hands...so amazing.  He anointed me.
    When my prayer was over I went back to my seat, drying my eyes and just so happy.  I totally received and do everyday, what God blessed me with.  I watched everyone else who wanted prayer get prayed for...only a few other people...maybe people are afraid of what God will say to them.  I had thought I would get a word of knowledge about my romantic life...but was so surprised and honored by what God gave me instead!  After the annointing I did not have a care about my marriage.  What happens in my romantic life doesn't matter....I have a purpose...clear finite direction!  Praise God!!!  
    I got in my car and called my bestie of 20+ years, who now loves the Lord, too, and serves Him willingly, and spilled the beans to her.  She was not in a place where she could talk...but I know she received it well.   Then when I got home I called my mom and texted my friend Patrick and Sharon and told them.  I know that they would never judge me or be jealous of the path God gave me.  Sharon even told me that she knew this same thing years ago when she read my posts on here about dreams.  That was awesome to hear!  
    You see I remember sitting on my bed, in my room, in that house on Semmes St. as a child.  Many things I would write about in my diary.  Many things would I learn in that house.  I was probably in 4th grade then when I did this.  I used to be an avid reader of books. I loved everything supernatural and had read books on esp, psychic abilities, and things like that. I always wanted to be psychic...to have the ability to see things.  I had many dreams back then...I had visions and I used to have dejavu all the time.  I remember asking God if I could be a prophet.  I even think I told him I didn't want to see all the horrible gory stuff...nothing that I could not handle.  I remember thinking, would anyone believe me if I told them of something that was coming.  Now I know that God would handle that...our job is just to tell people what God wants them to hear.  And new testament prophets spend a lot of time encouraging the church for God so they can continue to do what God has called them to do.
    I am still super excited!  God is so good!  Thank you Lord for giving me my dreams.  You are the bestest Lord!

Luke 14:15-33 Awesome awesome awesome! !!!

      I had decided to read the bible to my son before bed, instead of letting us watch television.  A most excellent choice, God said.  He turned my bible to Luke 14.  When my son had kicked the bible closed and I reopened it, it fell to the same page, praise God.  Below are the revelations that I received from these verses and there are more to come I am sure.
      Verse 26 talks about how if you do not hate your family and life, then you can not be Jesus' disciple.  It goes on to talk about how you would need to sit down and weigh out whether or not you have enough to finish a project before starting to build or else you will be mocked by those who beheld the unfinished work.  Or would a king not think before a battle to consider the battle ahead of him.  Then He says that whosever does not forsake all that he hath he cannot be His disciple.  
      That got me to thinking about what we need to give up in order to focus solely on God!  Seek first the kingdom of God...  Matthew 6:33.  Then I thought about how we must give up the things that tether us to the worldly world and the things that cause us to offend Matthew 5:30  because God wants us to be full of knowledge concerning His world and simple as a retard concerning the world of the devil.  Romans 16:9  You need to ponder what it means to be a disciple before you take that step because it is not profitable to only go halfway with it.  You must go all the way or be spit out.  Revelation 3:16   You can not just say, "I love Jesus".  You have to pick up your cross and change yourself.  You have to put God's Word, and your relationship with God above all other relationships and things or you will fail to finish building and you will be mocked.  Unbelievers mock hypocritical Christians who talk a good talk but never back it up with actions.  You have to leave all that this world is behind.  You have to leave your fleshly desires, your relationships that take you from God (friends or family that do not support you),  you have to leave it all behind.
      Then it totally made sense with the passage before it in verses 16-24.  He is talking about how a man invited a bunch of people to a dinner and they had said they'd come but backed out the night there of.  The man was pissed, as who would not be.  So, he had his servant go out and collect the needy from all over so the place would be filled.  The people that backed out used everyday life as excused to not come to dine.  Think about it like us and how we use everyday life to refuse to dine with our Lord at His supper table!  The man says then that none of the first group who were invited were allowed to taste of his supper!  Man that is deep!  So, we want to make sure that we do not let the cares of this world get in the way of our supping with our Lord.  If we do, we fall away and will not taste of his supper.  You can also compare this with the pharisees and the sinners or the jews and the gentiles.  But I really feel God wants us to know that it is an all or nothing thing.  We must give our whole life...not just  a bit or a piece to Him.  We have to surrender it all to Him!
      We are being called to let God handle it all in our lives!  There are so many verses that talk about this.  Like if you are like me and do research on food.   I would spend an hour looking up a farm to get beef from. Let it go!  Let God handle it.  Matthew 6:25  Worrying about whether or not your spouse is upset or angry?!  Let it go and Let God defend you!  Exodus 14:14 (The Lord shall fight for you and you shall hold your peace.)  Where will  I live if I commit to doing God's will and moving away?  Let it go and Let God go out before you and make His way for you!  Isaiah 52;12 and Matthew 19:29 says that God will make up for you forsaking people and places by giving you even more than you imagined.  So, don't allow this world to take up any space in your mind/heart.  Because as a man thinketh in his heart so is he!  Proverbs 23:7.  If you are afraid of something or someone or some event?  Let go and let God be the one who gives you a sound mind!  2 Timothy 1:7  The Lord does not give you a spirit of fear, but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind!  Praise God let me hear you praise God!  There is just no reason to be concerned with anything at all in this world!  Luke 12:24-26 puts it so well with this  Consider the ravens: for they neither sow nor reap; which neither have storehouse nor barn; and God feedeth them: how much more are ye better than the fowls?

²⁵ And which of you with taking thought can add to his stature one cubit?

²⁶ If ye then be not able to do that thing which is least, why take ye thought for the rest?  DUH!  What are we doing people?!  We have to let it go...this world does not matter enough to take us from God and our everlasting life.  Our everlasting life is our relationship with God.  The kingdom of God is within us.  Luke 17:21 So we have to do this!  We have to give it all to God and leave the rest behind!  Never looking back or else we'll be like Lot's wife and be destroyed by it.  Praise God I am so excited to do this...to just let it all go and let God handle everything from now on!  How easy my life will be!  Matthew 11:30, that is what Jesus is talking about when He says that His burden is light and it is easy to carry His yoke!  Praise God!  How easy that is indeed!  To just live for God and let God handle all the details!  Oh I praise you Lord!   I give you my life...my concerns...my details....my got to have it done my ways....my do it this way or it won't work out so well...who cares, it will always work out more excellent now because I am giving you free reign to go crazy with your love and grace and kindness in my life!  Praise you God and thank you Jesus for your sacrifice!  Oh Holy Spirit you rock it so much, too!  You teach me so much I am forever in your debt, as well!  just let it go....God I give you all of my control issues and I give my whole life to you...every last atom of it...you have it all thank you for taking it and molding me and changing my life and those around me for the better....oh how you work it all for good for those who believe on you!  AND I BELIEVE ON YOU GOD!  Praise you!  Oh thank you LORD!  

     ALL of nothing and I am giving it all to you!  Thank you for taking it and for teaching me these fabulous truths!  I will always have these truths in the front of my mind and in the front of my heart and on the tip of my tongue, thank you Holy Spirit oh my God thank you!  I am renewed, my heart is clean and my spirit is fresh and I am on my way Lord!

     This goes right along with what God just showed me about resting in Him and how you have to cease your own works in order to rest in Him!  Hebrews 4:10 talks about that!  That is so awesome how God shares with you and me!  I am so thankful for this!  This is really blessing me!  I just stop doing anything and let Him do it all.  Resting in Him.  Oh God thank you for letting me rest...for letting me dwell in your peace!   Thank you so much!  I have been so burdened by my own stupidity and lack of knowledge...thank you for teaching me!  Thank you!  I can not thank you enough!

Check in the Mail

      I had a dream today that I would get a twenty five dollar check in the mail soon.  That is cool.
       Then in a dream my mom said that she would bring my dad to see us because something favorable had happened for her.  That would be interesting, as right now, she does not seem to be favoring that kind of outcome.  But God works on people, so I am excited to see that work out.
      There is another one I had a few days ago that I meant to put down.  I will come back and post it when the Holy Spirit brings it back to my remembrance.
