believe it or not - i'm SO happy today! laughing from inside out.. my God is Living God - He hears and answers prayers!
it started last night when i was praying for one colleague whose church commitment is not really that regular.. immediately after my prayer, she called! (this is the 1st time she's calling outside work-hours) and to my amazement, she actually requested my company to a mid-week service in her church, cos she dun wan to go alone! trust me, she sounded so abashed that i thought it'd be a super-duper huge favour to ask.. of course i agreed! in fact, what an honour to be requested!
the funny thing is.. the sermon topic is on 'PREGNANCY'! i can understand her desire to be fruitful,all who are attending are pregnant/desiring to be pregnant wives...but i'm single! (i even joked with her that what if Holy Spirit falls on all in the room to be pregnant? i do not have the faith like Mother Mary - to be pregnant when single..:D ) well,i went anyway.. all things happen for a reason, just have to be open and learn what He has planned for me..
it's my first time visiting this infamous church and we made it so 'just-in-time' for the service.. the moment i stepped in, i know this is the House of God cos His Presence is already there.. my spirit is stirred up and my tongues just went off.. when our Lord is in the House, nothing and no one else seems to matter anymore(even though i would usually be looking around - normal behaviour for 1st-time visitor).. praise and worship in His Presence is such a joy, i just felt 'at home'..
well, things didnt just stop there.. though the topic is on pregnancy, Pastor Nerida Walker shared her faith in God's Word. this is when my spirit is really jumping.. what a word in season, rhema for me.. All has been done so the we can have fullness of life! Victory has been won at the Cross! God speaks to you through your spirit and heart(faith processor), not through your head(logic processor)... her sharing brought me back to one of Joyce Meyer's sermons - Living with passionate purpose: Choose to do what is right then your feelings will catch up with your choice; When God shows you something He wants you to do, He puts it in your heart; Make a decision based on the Word of God and trusting Him to make your feelings right.... in the end, i came out from the service, being 'pregnant' with so much faith!! it's not emotional faith 'hipe', but a spiritual pat-on-the-back that fills my soul!
Fear has a vision - vision of undesired natural outcome which is earthly bound.
Faith also has a vision - vision of desired supernatural outcome which is Heavenly bound!
How much better is faith! Choose faith today!
i'm so blessed this evening that i cant stop laughing inside and smiling outside. indeed, the joy of the Lord is my strength :) be it single,attached or married, the pilot of my life is JESUS! i'm just His co-pilot! I'm so happy that He IS my Pilot!
Heb 11:1 [AMP]
NOW FAITH is the assurance (the confirmation, the title deed) of the things [we] hope for, being the proof of things [we] do not see and the conviction of their reality [faith perceiving as real fact what is not revealed to the senses].
