Spiritual Band-Aid

It’s been awhile since I’ve written down the blessings and the trials, but let’s continue.  “For it’s by your grace, Lord, that I continue to travel this life’s journey.”  Five days ago the family was on their way to the gym to exercise (Let me explain.  Since we were military, we can use the exercise facilities on the military base at no charge, but we still have to buy gas for our car to go out to the base, which is approximately fifteen miles).  My daughter was driving my car and my husband was co-captain in the front.  All of a sudden, the car quit running and we smelt burnt rubber.  The spiritual band-aid (see page about spiritual band-aids; “Mr. And Mrs. Fix It”) had worn out, and our engine was gone.  It would take $3,000 to repair the car; our mechanic gave us that figure in the estimate.  We got a couple of second opinions, and that was that.  We needed a new engine.  God blessed us that we were able to pull over.  He sent one lady that we knew from another church, to take my husband back home for his truck and a towing chain.  Two gentlemen from our church and a pizza deliveryman were also sent from the Lord to help out.  My Father was supplying help.  Still, life goes on, and we must continue to work while it is day.

Sales were slow.  Rent and the bank note for the repairs on the building were due.  No merchandise was coming in, and stock was okay.  I thank God for the husband that He gave to me.  He did not place blame on me for opening the business.  Our situation was financially tight.  Things that we had to face day by day were still going on.  Why would they cease because of our financial difficulty?  We were now down to one mode of transportation.  I still had a store, my daughter had her part-time job, and my husband was still working for Uncle Sam.  We had social, church, business, school and other obligations we were working on that still needed to be accomplished.

I needed a financial blessing at this time, and I had to see where and how I was going to obtain it.  Was I supposed to…

It’s all about the “Prayer”

I don’t normally pray for celebrities, yet today I was prompted to pray for Beyonce.  Why – I don’t know.  Haven’t heard anything in the news lately, but when you’re led to pray for someone or something in particular – just do it!  We never know when intercessions are needed on our behalf.  It doesn’t have to be a long eloquent prayer because God already knows, nevertheless He was waiting for someone to stand in the gap and PRAY.

What is prayer?  Prayer is communication, communion, speaking with, and hearing from God.  It’s being in His presence, and not being alone.  It’s waiting for an answer and being still enough to hear that answer.

 

Making The Difference

You never know when it’s your prayer that makes the difference, in someone’s life.  Have you ever thought that your prayer was not necessary for someone else to make it through?

You probably knew that other people were praying for the same thing, so why should God bother with your little prayer?  You never know.  Your one little request may be the one that God is waiting to hear.  So don’t count yourself short.  Your prayers do count.

Hearing God

I enjoy hearing a word from God through others who hear His voice when our Father speaks.  Other people’s messages frequently assure me that I’m following the straight and narrow path of righteousness.  It is wonderful to receive a confirmation from God through others.  “Because straight is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it” (Mat. 7:14).

We should never think that we are the only ones that God speaks to or operates through.  I am blessed to hear what God has to say when He speaks through others.  I go to church anticipating a Word from God.  I also realize that I must have my gift of the Discerning of Spirits fine-tuned.  There may be some gristle (i.e., something told to you that is contrary to the Word of God) in that portion of meat (the interpretation of God’s Word by another person) which we receive.  Remember, we should eat the meat and spit out the gristle.  Don’t allow people to confuse you.  If you find it necessary to chew and chew (ponder or analyze the words from others), then get a stick of chewing gum and chew on that.

 

If what someone says is questionable, read God’s Word for yourself, even if you have to get an easier translation, and discuss with your Pastor what you’ve heard.  God will give you the understanding to live righteously and not be deceived.
