Invitation Number One – Walk with the LORD
Requires Humility
The result to saying yes – ended up selling my house, separating from my wife and being apart from my family for 23 months. The LORD told me that He would heal my marriage but it would get dark before it got light.
He initiated the gift to heal
He healed my marriage. He was faithful.
At the end, He sent me on a journey to explore and talk to me about my purpose and destiny in life. All I really wanted was more of His presence. But, He had more to say.
Invitation Two came – with the amount of light that He wanted to shine in me, would I let him take me through another season of refinement?
I got a prophetic word from a local church. The guy read my mail like never before. I had been crying out for more presence – at any cost. And, that is precisely what the guy said to me. No one knew but the LORD.
And, I got the invite to go deeper. Would I?
He wanted to shine more light, but it would come with a cost. Was I willing?
Would He be faithful?
Jesus told me shortly after that that I was a precious metals dealer. I was buying gold refined in fire. Ha.
Then, I had a dream of using the bathroom in a conference room. The interpretation – God wanted to remove the impurities in me and would do it out in the marketplace. Oh boy.
Two years later.
My wife has talked about divorcing me.
I have battled witchcraft. My daughter was in the hospital all last summer. And this year, she battled suicidal thoughts.
God was faithful. He delivered us.
The test is in front of me. Will I submit to Him and lay down my life? Will I surrender? I hope that I have and am waiting on His response.
He will be faithful. He always is.
And, He continues to increase the light that is being shined.
While the battles are intense. God is faithful.
You see, God wants to glorify Himself through our lives. I get to see the LORD heal and deliver people from all kinds of nasty stuff. It is awesome. But, He has to mold me and shape me into a vessel that is capable of carrying more of Him. That process comes with much pain and much trial. But, God is faithful.
Many are going through some really hard stuff right now. You are wondering whether God will show up, whether He will be true to His word.
I tell you today that God is faithful.
Yes, it may be hard. Yes, there may be tears. But, God will be faithful. He always is.
