AMEN...AMEN...AMEN.

:clap2: I knew you had it in you D!

:clap2: AMEN! It never occured to me that way D! As a matter of fact I was walking up to the back of the house that's how I was able to really notice the beautiful landscaping.

I receive that Lola...I definately receive that. I could see the house as if I was walking across the landscape up to the back door. It was awesome AND indeed something that I would love the live in....lol. I have a question....is it possible to be haunted by your past? I've been having reoccuring theme dreams of people from my past. The latest one I posted earlier this week about a former childhood friend driving down the street backwards. I would greatly appreciate if you (or anyone) could answer that question for me because then it would bring so much into perspective.

This morning my eyes popped opened at 3:43am. I've known from past events that the Lord has something He wanted to say to me. So I started with my usual reverence of Christ then positioned myself for listening. I didn't hear anything at first so I started praying in my prayer tongue. The Lord then spoke and gave me some specific instructions (I'll share them at a later date). After that I waited again. Then all of a sudden my spirit started denoucing my past. The Holy Spirit spoke to my spirit that I was being haunted by my past so naturally I jumped all over it After I finished up my warfare I positioned myself again to see if the Lord had more. I closed my eyes and that's when I clearly saw the vision of the back of a beautiful mansion like house. It started out fuzzy but became crystal clear. It was a brown brick house with huge windows. It was surrounded by beautiful landscaping. Unfortunately, that's all I saw so I'm not quite sure what to make of it.

PRAISE THE LORD DREAMSTER!!!!

Thanks Dove! That's WILL be my prayer and my position, to just trust Him and rest in His comfort.

AMEN...C! You're always on target. It's funny that you used your school as an example because that's EXACTLY what I'm experiencing right now. I applied for this one particular school TWICE now and got accepted TWICE only to have something from the finance department stand in my way. But you know what, you're right. Maybe it's timing or not the right school. I WILL continue to praise God in the meantime while He makes provisions for the vision that He has given me. Thanks C!

Hello family in Christ! I have a question. Which is the best way to pray when things start lining up and seeming to take off in the direction that you've been praying and holding faithful to then everything seems to fall apart or come to a stand still? I've asked God to show me if my heart held any malious or to take me back to my last place of disobidence (sp) so that I can correct it. I also check my "walk" first when things seem to go bunkers but after that I'm pretty lost. any ideas on what I show pray that the Lord reveals or what I should pray all together ?

AWESOME TESTIMONY C! It is especially touching to me because something similar happened to me last week. I have been feeling so frustrated lately because I feel like I'm right "there" but can't seem to make the transition over. But praise God. He put on a long lost aquaintance to tell me the call over my life. It was so confirming because the call is something that has ALWAYS been a passion for me. I recently set it to the side because of detering factors and even yesterday receive some more detering news in regards to my call but you know what, I've decided to stand on faith.

Cholette, PLEASE don't make me loose my job by shouting the place down...LOL AMEN!!!!

oh I meant I always love your sense of humor and "one door" is an actual person here in the forum.

dreamster i always your sense of humor.

As I was sitting here at home testifying before the Lord about how I wasn't sure I was going to make it through over the last couple of months, well weeks even. I have been an emotional wreck. Not to mention that every thing in my life seemed to be going haywire. 10% pay cut at work, broke things off with my BF of 6 years, struggling to stay ahead of my bills and just feeling like I was loosing control. Just when I was reaching the lowest point ONE DOOR ministered to me over the last few days and really helped me see that loosing control was EXACTLY what was needed in my life in order for Christ to have full reign over it. Today I feel free and delivered! and I was led by the Lord to share my testimony here with you all. Thank you Mia (and the other moderators) for creating and maintaining such a wonderful ministry here and thank you one door for loving God enough to lay aside your own life to help a sister in Christ out, especially when there's SEEMS to be no investment. I say seems because the Word of the Lord says that our labor is not in vain. Again, I love you all with the Lord of Christ and pray many many blessing over you.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, may you continue to be blessed beyond measure

Amen, Lola21st and its not isolated to one state or particular part of the nation, it is wide spread. Now that scripture that talks about mens hearts failing them for fear in the end times, makes much more sense. But we must, for the sake of our Christian fight, stand strong against the enemy for we already know who won this fight...AMEN!!!

Princess, the level of hatred and harden hearts that has been manifested is disheartening.

Thanks Cholette, it's the most powerful thing we can do for him.

I just watched a video on MSNBC where they interviewed a man who was (legally & openly) toting his gun with a sign that sprewed subtle messages of violence. I'm not going to get into the healthcare debate here because at this point it's irrelavant. I'm not asking if Obama was your preference for president or not BUT what I am asking is that we all pray and agree for his and his family's protection. That's all!

Cholette, you're dead on.... Butterfly, also read the book of Job. He had the same fear for his children. There's a great lesson in that book because it show the damages of fear and the restoration of faith. Pray that God sends His servants to your family to turn their hearts toward Him (if they are not responding to you). Then thank Him daily as a sign of your belief. Find a faith scripture to stand on so that anytime the enemy put thoughts of your family members being harmed in your mind you beat him with that scripture. Also, you can minister to your family by allowing your life to be an example of what Christ can do. Love on them and be careful not to be condeming and judgemental. But in all things....LOVE!

And that's the beauty of Christ Lola21st, that He already considered our sins and mishaps when he created us. That nothing can surprise Him (thank God). These are things that I know and have studied but just needed a refresher. THANKS TO YOU ALL for feeding my spirit. I've been going through so much and I've been declaring and decreeing (read my other posting) and fighting "the good" fight. But the other day the spirit of the Lord spoke and said to me that it was Christ that I wrestled with. I went and studied Genesis 32 how a man (Angel of God) wrestled with Jacob and God revealed to me that my battle was a battle of my own desires vs His. (now you wanna talk about being humbled). Then the spirit of the Lord started telling me how I have manipulated situations and people to try to get to a place that He'd already prepared for me. I confessed it to be true and repented my sins (that's why I asked if sometimes your confession makes you feel like you've fail in your faith). But like you said Lola21st, God does not condemn us, instead He loves us enough to correct us and our confession frees the spirit of sin, pride, etc so that the love of God can purifiy us. Sounds like I go it, huh?

YOU BETTA PREACH IT THEN CHOLETTE! Like Jadams said, that was something to ponder over today.

Sometimes my confessions make me feel like I failed in my faith walk. Do you guys ever experience that?

Thanks you guys...that was helpful. Especially the part about not going back to get them...
