GOD is toOo goOoOod!!

Wow!! The past week has been so amazing for me! Going thru sO many ups and downs in my life, And sunday was the highest point of it all!! I got healed baby!!! YAAAH!! I got healed of my throat pain which was there for the past two weeks and it used to hurt everytime I sang, but now im dancin and shoutin for GOD!! Last sunday at church we had Mr. Amos Singh, a very anointed man of GOD from Madhya Pradesh who spoke to us. And he told Diana, a singer in the choir, to pray for healing for us. He asks everyone in the church who had problems to stand up and believe for healing to take place. And so Diana, who has never done such a thing ever before starts to pray for healing and voila!! The pain in my throat which was actually in my voicebox stops… and praises and thanks are just flowing out of my mouth as soon as that happened!!  WoW! GOD is too good maan!! Around 40 people were healed at that moment!! And each of us comes and tells what all they had been healed from!! Asthama, complete healing in the eyes(i’m gonna get that too, i got specs -1.25 !!)…people were waving their spectacles around!!!,  healing in the pancreas, blood in the throat, healing from deafness, healing from rheumatoid arthritis (bone disease), a 7 yr old child had got healed from paralysis and she started to walk about and even run on the stage!!,  and there were so many women who were in tears of thankfulness and some men too!! You should have been there to see tha fire!!  …AND that!! my friends is tha GloRy oF GOD!!

But you should know… Although the pain went, there was still some itching in my throat… I said to myself, “GOD has not taken away the pain to leave me itching for a complete healing!!”(Note the pun!!)… But I must say I was irritated as to why that itch was still there! Then I remembered, Mr. Amos stating from one of his experiences, said, “We waited for 2 an a half hours for the rain to start for conducting a meeting, But it did not stop! …So I was asked if I wanted to go back home!!, I got ruffled and So I said to GOD, “GOD!!! I’m giving you 7 minutes to stop the rain, if not… then you betta watchout!!”; So we prayed for the rain to stop… and after 5 minutes, the rain became a little bit thinner! So for the remaining two minutes, we started to thank GOD and when we went out of the shelter to see the weather, the clouds had cleared the place and there was a big huge gap of sky in the place!!”         – WOW!! So I realized, that I had not fully thanked GOD that much, and I began to do just that and ya know what!! In two minutes, that itch stopped!! Yes that itch stopped!!….

So thats what happened on wednesday night!  And this story would have been monday’s write-up, but as I just finished writing the first paragraph, the itch was still there and I thought, “I will wait for a complete healing”, so I stopped writing it then and left it, and that’s why this is thursday’s post!!

Faith destroyer!!

     Those little thieves in your head can really destroy your faith; and they do it so much like a magic trick that at the end you are left totally unaware of what even happened!!

I was surprised at the slick move that the devil plays, and now that I know, that little pipsqueak will not be given a chance!

Well…*I’m wondering if what I did was right* I wrote it as a story and I think you would enjoy it if you read it slowly…

 

The characters in the story:

Place:  Johnson’s mind

Cast: 

Mother – the Heart

Father – the Mind

Child – A newborn hope or wish

Thieves – Satan’s thoughts directed at us OR our own reasoning/doubts OR people who discourage our hope… basically anything that can destroy our faith by words or actions.

 

            It was a busy street, and lots of thoughts made their way in and out of the main city square, the hotspot at Johnson’s mind. Among them were some of the happy thoughts of a newborn hope which had had just arrived. And just as with any hope, there needed to be faith fed to it to keep it alive and well and so, Johnson’s mind was busy providing the food so important for the newborn hope to survive and grow… 

And for getting faith, one needed to do some hard work to earn it.

It involved the job of hearing the WORD of GOD; praying about it and believing that GOD would provide for it; that it would come true and making plans for it, and implementing those plans!

And that is the food upon which a newborn or a growing hope feeds for it to be alive and become fully mature and fit for the real world. 

And so, Father Mind and Mother Heart both went to their daily task of gathering the essential daily food for their little baby hope…

 

But the evil thief and baby-killer was hiding close by and was watching every move that the two were making to provide the faith for the little baby. And he waited for the just the right time to either snatch the baby and run, or cunningly steal the all-important food little by little so that the baby would starve to death! But his tricks are old and well documented in the all-time best-seller ‘The Holy Bible’. An entry in it clearly declares, “The thief comes to steal, kill and destroy!”

 

So just as the two proud parents, the heart and mind went about getting engrossed and occupied with the daily tasks of life; the thief waited for the right opportune time…

When the mind and heart are crowded with thoughts! 

 So, as Johnson was washing his clothes (he is a good boy you know!), the thief came in during the peak hour and disguised himself to be a part of the neighbourhood (just another thought in the mind) and he posed as an innocent looking thought and very casually asked…

 “Are you fully sure that your hope will come true??”

Mother Heart replied without even blinking, — “Yes.”

Father Mind, thought on what was said, and after he applied his logic, replied, “Well, something wrong can also happen, there is a chance, that failure can …” 

And just as he was saying that! The thief had quietly snatched that immensely precious faith unnoticed!! And he tried to make his escape back into the same crowd of thoughts that he came in. 

BUT THIS TIME, the Spirit of the Almighty GOD who was given complete authority over the family knew this fully well and alerted both of them immediately.  

This is what The Spirit told them:

What is faith? –It’s the being sure of hope. -Heb 11:1 (NCV)

So my dear, what does Satan need to do to rob your faith in broad daylight?

He needs to make you unsure, unsure of your hopes, your calling and GOD-given purpose in life, your dreams and ambitions. The moment that the mind acknowledges that there is a possibility of failure, it becomes unsure of the promises of GOD. And that destroys your faith!!! 

And they realized that the precious little food of faith that they had worked for was missing!!! And this realization opened their eyes and they snatched back that faith from the thief’s hands and drove him away. And so… their little baby hope was strengthened that day and grew a little bit more and the shine on his little face became brighter that day.

THE END

 

Isn’t that a nice story? Pls do send your comments. 

Even a simple question like “How will this happen?” that you might ask yourself pretty often can make you stumble in your faith.

Be sure. Be sure. Be sure.

Fearless Faith!!

 

Yeaah!! That’s right! That’s the kind of Faith that we need today! …The faith that will not compromise for a lesser gift from GOD. Faith that will not FAIL! That will never give up!

Well, I was talking with my friend as I was just climbing some stairs. And I realized that as I was climbing them they were so similar to this race of Faith!

 

If I say, “No, I’m just too tired of climbing these stairs.” And I go back!

Then what have I gained??

Ans. Nothing. In fact, I have even lost the time and effort to get so far.

And so, it is an experience worth very less. One that is not good enough to be counted as a ‘learning’ experience.

But if I go all the way??

Ans. I have gained everything I had hoped for. And I have learnt enough to crack the next similar challenge when it comes. (If I pray for healing and it happens. Then I will definitely believe for similar miracles to happen the next time.)

 

But… If I ‘chose’ not to go the whole way, not believe all the way?

Then I don’t reach my destination (top of the staircaseJ). I do not get my miracle from GOD. I have wasted all my efforts reaching so far. And plus I have to come down the stairs again! And backtrack, and think why is GOD unfair? Why did I not get my miracle? Why me? why? why? why!!

… And what I’m really doing then is ‘whining’ and wasting some more of life’s precious time over something I do not need to waste.

 

Ya know?? Because I have not gone all the way, I don’t have all the knowledge I need to crack the next similar challenge, so when an opportunity comes to me to pray for healing all I do is go around the same small mountain again, instead of going ahead!

 

So…. The bottom-line is: Are you believing God for something? Then believe all the way, don’t doubt, don’t stop, don’t look at others. Don’t compromise for a lesser thing and don’t go back, fight the good fight of faith and overcome the stupid little doubts that come to take away your hopes and dreams. Come on!! God cannot and will not let you down. HE is GOD!! Would He want a child of HIS to lose faith in HIM?? No way!!!

So believe.

But if it’s not HIS will, then HE’S got something better.  

Hello world!

I start this blog in the name of the FATHER, SON-YESHUAH and the HOLY SPIRIT. Amen.

The main reason I have started this blog is because I believe that JESUS may speak to someone who needs HIM through my experiences. And plus, I just wanted to write down all my feelings and make a book out of it for like 9 years now!
