After waking up to nightmares, at 0430 am this is what my Father in heaven gave me. I simply went to him.
The nightmares: about the old me, smoking crack, fighting for crack, sneaking and hiding, fiendishly seeking the next high. It was sickening. But God is good! He is my counsel in times of “war” (our flesh wars against the Spirit living in us) & He always provides a way out. Here, he has done exactly that; at 0430 in the morning. He is a good good Father. Amen But I also had a hand in this; I had to bring it to Him in prayer, thoughts and deed; calling out to Jesus, “Jesus! Jesus! Jesus!” Trusting in him, and surrendering to him. And guess what, He heard me crying out. But He not only heard my crying out, he answered my prayer with this, speaking clearly and directly to me Nothing will convince me otherwise. Amen. And that, my friend(s) is “Knowing.” Amen
Thank you Father for the testing of my faith and a testimony worthy of Your praise. I give You all the honor and praise for victory over the devil. And it is in Jesus Christ’s name that I/we pray. Amen
Philippians 4:8 (ESV)
Finally, brothers, whatever is true, whatever is honorable, whatever is just, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is commendable, if there is any excellence, if there is anything worthy of praise, think about these things.
Philippians 4:8 (ESV)
But, it didn’t stop there. “Alexa, play Good Good Fater”… and I just sang His praise. “Alexa, play God Only Kows,” and the weeping began. “Alexa, play Rescue Story” and the the sobbing just consumed me. Hands raised in triumph and praise!
Then I sent this testimony to myself in an email so that I could capture it and send it all to you. And wouldn’t you know it… I had an email from a friend offering me $20 an hour to go to training for eight weeks in Augusta and stay with him and his wife (& I can bring my dogs!)
Gentlemen, God answers prayer. And He blesses those who bless Him.
