Never, NEVER ever shortchanged the power of prayer. It does wonders, wonders beyond what we can imagine nor understand. This week has indeed yet the best week of my 2008, because of prayer.
I went to Powerhouse praying for my cell group members and I felt that intimate closeness with each and everyone of them as I surrender to the Father.
I went to cell group and again we pray for friends whom we are inviting for today service. I was granted the peace of God that people are going to enter our cell group. (as they accept Jesus)
I went to Overnight Prayer Meeting. It was till 5am, but trust me, I was tired during the break not the praying time. My body maybe tired but my spirit is so on fire to pray and pray.
BREAKTHROUGH AND REVIVAL, I WELCOME YOU!
I thank God for saving Terris today!
I thank God for my wonderful cell group too, not only did you allow me to feel comfortable when I entered but also my friends. (On behalf of Jess, Ada and Terris)
I thank God for open doors like these.
I thank God; I'm blessed.
God gave me a revelation yesterday while I was just praying randomly. I guess God sees the bits and pieces that are left behind even when I said I had chosen to move on. It was easy to say than done, but well, I did it. It took me sometimes and lots of effort to stand up to where I am today, but all could be done by the grace and mercy of my Father in Heaven who had sent His Son for me. I know memories still loiters in me at times, and God brought me to the days when He told me a straight NO. Well, I am stubborn! I remembered how I mentioned that we maybe a stumbling block unto our lives yet we tried by our strength to remove this block and guess what, WE FAILED BADLY.
I was broken for a period. The block seems so big for me to shift it away and I called out to Jesus, and to me He seems as if He was sleeping. (The story of Peter waking up Jesus to calm the sea) Today, Pastor shared that sometimes God wants to test us to believe that He is always there, He just want us to trust Him a little more, a little longer. I was pushed to understand a FACT, GOD's WAYS ARE HIGHER THAN MY WAYS.
The revelation God gave, stumbling block will become a stepping stone. He alerted my spirit that since I have decided to walk this journey and be on path onto why I came over to CHC, I ought to walk the way He wants me to. He had taken that stumbling block and changed it to a stepping stone for me to rise up! I am so thankful because God is simply awesome.
Stumbling block to a Stepping Stone for Jesus.
There is so much I want to share, but I will post next time for it's time for me to sleep. I had not really taken my rest since I reached home at 6am today. God bless my readers.
Love Jesus,
