I desire that My people would prepare for what is coming but many are running to and fro in the earth concerned about worldly matters. They do not heed My words of warning in the earth though time is short now. They prefer the pleasures of the world to spending time in My presence.
James 1:22: But be ye doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving your own selves.
Jeremiah 6:10: To whom shall I speak, and give warning, that they may hear? Behold, their ear is uncircumcised, and they cannot hearken; behold, the word of the Lord is unto them a reproach; they have no delight in it.
Note: I received this word while praying about the Straight Talk show for this week, and I talk about it further on the show dated May 26, 2011 at http://www.blogtalkradio.com/glyndalomax.
Glynda, I feel like G-d is talking to me, however, I still am confused on how to spend time in His presence short of reading the Bible. I pray every night in my head before going to bed, give him my thanks, search for wrong doings and pray for whoever is on my mind and that is it. Can anyone tell me what I am missing???? I feel like He is still referring to me when these come out.
ReplyDeleteThanks and God Bless all!
ska55124 - Spending time with the Lord and hearing from Him are two of the topics Conrad and I discussed on yesterday's Blog Talk show - if you click on the Blog Talk player to the right, you can listen to it - it's the one called Will God Judge America. Hope this helps you!
ReplyDeleteThis reminded me of these verses concerning what should be on our hearts when this type of word comes.
ReplyDeleteActs 11:27-30 "27 During this time some prophets came down from Jerusalem to Antioch. 28 One of them, named Agabus, stood up and through the Spirit predicted that a severe famine would spread over the entire Roman world. (This happened during the reign of Claudius.) 29 The disciples, each according to his ability, decided to provide help for the brothers living in Judea. 30 This they did, sending their gift to the elders by Barnabas and Saul.
Get ready to be a light in the dark!
Glynda, once again you've delivered a powerful and anointed word. So many people concern themselves with the trappings of this world, and yet, they give our gracious Father little if any of their time. So many are being led astray on into captivity because they won't read their Bible or spend any time in prayer; and this is needed more today than ever before.
ReplyDeleteMy sincere prayer is that words like these, coming from many faithful Believers, will wake up this world and draw them to God and away from the trappings of this world. That word fits, don't you think? Trappings that trap people in sin and draw them from our Father. Time to wake up and prepare for the coming storm, it's closer than most people think.
Again, thank you for this word! Blessings, peace and love,
Dave

The way to prepare is to know truth. Most all that people know who are called christians is not the truth but the traditions of men. I was told about these things coming on the country more then two years ago. I also went to seven of the main churches in the town I live in and told them these things would come on them and the whole country. I was also told of the cure for what is coming. The way to stay in the ark so to speak was to know the true and the living God not the one that most think is God the one churches have made up that is suppose to be truth but is nothing more then the traditions of men. The things I was suppose to share with you Glynda which is why I emailed you. It is one thing to hear the warning which you clearly do it is another to hear the cure most are sincere and most all are sincerly wrong.As always I sit and wait some will come most will wait until it is to late. There are many who hear the warning very few who have waited to hear what to do even fewer who have belived truth and not wanted to give up their traditons thinking they could not be wrong.Most all people know about God was learned in Churches not in the kingdom of the living God.
ReplyDeleteMy question is this, what does ' prepare' mean? Prepare our hearts? Gather food and supplies? Any thoughts on that?
ReplyDeleteI can see that that He is reminding us of His desire for us to draw nearer. Working on that one...still got a ways to go but working on it. Just trying to brr understand the part about preparing ourselves.
Great show, nice to hear Conrad getting some similar messages too. You have a great gift of speaking and connecting with people Glynda.
ReplyDelete. - What the Lord spoke to me not long ago is that preparation will vary for each person and the first preparation any of us needs to make is to draw closer to Him and press in so that we can hear Him clearly, and then He will lead each of us in how to prepare. I have talked about this on some of my recent Blog Talk Radio broadcasts if you want to check them out. Thanks for posting - Glynda
ReplyDeleteDr. Dave, Thank you so much for your kind comment - looking forward to our show on prophecy on June 15th on your channel. ~ Glynda
ReplyDeleteStew - Thank you. I really enjoyed having Conrad on the show, he is a very anointed teacher of the word and really has a heart for serving the Lord. Thank you for your kind compliment, I appreciate it! ~ Glynda
ReplyDeleteSaid,
ReplyDeleteI would follow Glynda's advice on preparing i.e.
"first preparation any of us needs to make is to draw closer to Him"
But second, I would also prepare with survival supplies and maybe some training. The reason I say this is look at the story of Joseph in Egypt. He was warned about a coming famine i.e. the seven fat cows and seven lean ones, and he stocked up on supplies during the good years and it saved all during the famine. So there is a biblical reference to physically stocking up on supplies in times of adversity.
I agree, Chief, we definitely have scripture to back up physical preparation as well, I just wouldn't get obsessed with that and ignore the more important aspect of drawing closer to God who can lead us in all things. Thanks, Chief.
ReplyDeleteWell Glynda like you said, and I really don't think any clear thinking Christian can disagree, FIrst, get right with the Lord. Then other things second.
ReplyDeletethanks, missed it this week, hoo-ah, lol
ReplyDeleteGlynda it's amazing that the Lord gave you this word. A few months ago I had a dream where I was flying in the air. There was an angel attached to my right hip. I asked him where are you taking me but he would not speak only point to various countries. This angel was wearing a watch which seemed odd to me. We landed on the ground and he left. All of the sudden two women came up to me grabbed each of my hands and said "YOU MUST PREPARE YOUR TENT THERE'S NOT MUCH TIME LEFT. TIME IS RUNNING OUT YOU MUST PREPARE YOUR TENT. THE TIME IS SO SHORT." I asked them am I going to die and they said no but TIME IS RUNNING OUT. The anguish on their faces scared me. Glynda what do you think of this dream and what does it mean to prepare your tent?
ReplyDeleteThanks and God bless you.
AKass92 - I am not sure what it means to prepare your tent, but a tent I think generally means a dwelling place, a place where you abide. Anyone know what this could mean?
ReplyDeleteAkas92
ReplyDeleteIf I may I might be able to add to this dream.
I think it is important to understand what these angels did NOT say.
They did not say, prepare your HOUSE. A house signifies a stable imobile dwelling place. But..............
A TENT signifies mobility. Many of the prophets lived tents and traveled with their herds and people.
I believe your dream is telling you that you must prepare to leave your current dwelling. You may have to seek refuge in the wilderness for a time "or" you may be traveling to a place that you will need a tent for your jouney, OR both.
You should buy a tent and a backpack and fill it with supplies that you can carry if you must walk. Where will you go?
The Lord is going to show you your destination.
Chief - That is very insightful about the tent - thanks!
ReplyDeleteSorry for the recent delay in posting some of the comments, yall - my main computer suffered a hard drive crash and I'm using the backup. Should have it up and running again soon. Thanks for your patience -
ReplyDeleteAKass92,
ReplyDeleteReading about your dream made me consider this word from 1 Corinthians:
"Do you not know that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit?"
Whenever the Hebrews were wandering, they worshiped in a "tabernacle,"-- a temple or a temporary residence (i.e. tent) instead of the permanent "synagogue." Perhaps, the dream was alluding to the fact that we will need to rely wholly on the Holy Spirit within us and the Word He has delivered instead of leaning on the institution of the church, or "synagogue."
Persecution of the Church has been spiking, so perhaps that is the why the angel was suggesting we are running out of time. We must be able to thrive even when we are decentralized and are experiencing persecution.
Grace and peace,
Hi Glynda
ReplyDeleteWOW!! After reading your note about
your blog talk, I tuned in. Great discussion with Conrad. I didn't realize how starved I was for Spirit led conversation.
So then I went back and am listening to your other broadcasts.
A needed and timely breath of fresh air.
You share golden nuggets in your experiences discerning God's voice and the power of our words. I'm definitely in agreement.
My walk is very similar.I remember the first time I heard God's voice
The excitement was so great I gobbled up every teaching and word I could find. And of course this "pressing in" brought more of God's Spirit. The day I realized that His words were flowing out of me, instead of me having to consciously search them out to apply them in my life, was
(and is) the thrill of a lifetime!
I so hope all the readers can catch your broadcasts. What you talk about and describe are a prescriptive road map to walking in all He has for us. I always thought this is the"normal" of belonging to God and functioning in His image.
He really does draw us. And He makes it easy by giving us the hunger and desperation to chase Him. I believe, and my experience testifies to James, when we prime the pump ,so to speak, and draw near to God, He draws near to us!
Yes Our God is a rewarder of those who diligently seek Him.
Thanks for encouraging me. I've struggled wondering if it was just my dream that we would walk as Acts-chapter disciples.
Now I see... God's face is shining on our prayer "that we would know the hope of His calling, the riches of the glory of His inheritance and the surpassing greatness of His power towards us who believe.
Kathy, Thank you so much for your comment! I'm so glad you enjoyed the Blog Talk Show. Conrad was an awesome guest, he is truly a man of God! ~ Glynda
ReplyDeleteAkass92 and others, can I offer this to you. I will start with a few observations in the natural and then lift into the spiritual (and possibly prophetic - I present this for discernment).
ReplyDeletePlaying the elusive scarlet pimpernel from the NWO technocrats will be far-removed from that which it was for d'Artagnan.
Now, satellites can read your newspaper over your shoulder. They can also identify tell-tale signs of habitation, even in caves and in forests - America's wars in the last 15 years have perfected that.
Chatham house etc have already perfected EMF remote mind-control, and have already used it in war-theatre settings. They also are on the way to perfecting weather-control and manufacture - courtesy of HAARP (here Joplin and Haiti comes to mind).
In short, in the natural, there is now literally nowhere you can physically hide. Remember, those high-tech census-takers even visited caves-as-dwellings, and have mapped the GPS coordinates for these caves.
However, in the spiritual, we are dealing with a God who can overrule all this high-tech wizardry with less than a wave from His hand. . .
There are some of you who will remember one of Richard Wurmbrand's famous prayers. When he was smuggling Bibles into the then Soviet Union, he prayed the following prayer: "Lord, in Your day you made blind eyes see; now, at this Soviet checkpoint, please make seeing-eyes blind".
There was many a time when the Soviet Border-Police opened the trunk of his car - chock-a-block with Bibles . . . and saw nothing.
Today, we must now take Psalm 91 as our own - each in our own way as the Lord directs. Being under His wing, in his special secret place will be all we need. Just as the cloud in the wilderness lifted and moved from place to place, so, too will His wings move, and we must follow to remain under His wings.
This special secret place will be somewhere all these high-tech gizmos cannot penetrate. In that soon-coming day, Wurmbrand's prayer in these days will have the following variation:
"Lord, today all this electronic spyware can see farther than even eagle-eyes can see. You are Lord, even over all of this spyware. In Your Grace and Mercy, as we remain under Your wings, make this spyware blind."
And under His wings (a holy protective cocoon, if you please) will be the only place where this spyware will not be able to penetrate.
Remember, you will be living like Elijah by the Brook Cherith - depending on God's "ravens" to bring you sustenance. Your lives will also resemble those of the Desert Fathers, who could physically survive for years on end with only a dried fig plus the Eucharist daily.
To be in this sacred safe-place will require effort from you, Just drifting along will not get you there.
To get there, you will have to leave the drifting current, press-in to Him, to be used to spending time in His presence, to know what His voice sounds like amidst the cacophony of false-Chrsits today, and to be like those who "follow the Lamb wherever He goes" (Rev. 14:4).
Study the Apostle John's Book of Revelation. Not to get some form of "trib" timetable to suit your preconceptions, but to see those passages which describe the holiness of Yeshua's elect - and to follow in their footsteps.
Saints, the end of all things is upon us, we have no time to play games. We are living in momentous times. Therefore, watch and be ready in all holiness, and be like the wise virgins, for at the hour that ye think not, the Son of Man will come. Are you ready?
Anamchara - That is a very good post - thank you for sharing that with us!
ReplyDeleteAmachara,
ReplyDeleteThis last post of yours has got to be one of the most insightful and informative posts I've read.
To add to that, lets not forget in Obama's healthcare bill is the introduction of the program to begin the implementation of electronic chip implants by 2013.
As more time goes on Rev 18: "Come out of her my people so you do not partake in her sins" seems more real to me every passing day.
Folks, how can a nation create the electronic chip implants in humans unless the tax payers of the nation fund the program? This is what God means by "partaking in her sins."
Lets look at Rev 18, a little closer at what God is trying to tell His people. It sometimes helps to understand what God is NOT saying to understand more clearly what He is saying.
1. What God is NOT saying in Rev 18: is: He is not "ordering" His people to come out of this evil nation.
2. What God is saying is: He is "warning" us to come out of this evil nation.
This means two things.
a. The Christian is going to have a personal choice with regards to leaving or staying. Meaning God is not going to force His people to leave.
b. God is not going to personally come and get His people. Meaning, God is only giving you a warning and what the Christian decides to do with His warning will be a personal choice. Basically, God is NOT saying He is going to come get you, He's saying get out of there.
What this means in the big picture is:
God gave you the warning to leave and if the Christian makes the personal choice not to heed Gods warning, then the Christian will suffer the fate of Gods judgment on the nation by geographical default, or, by just hanging around.
Time is short friends, prepare.
Thanks everyone.
ReplyDeleteGod bless all of you.
Anamchara-- Thank you! I've been getting the word "cocoon" all over the place in my walk as of late! It's like I've been living the life of a caterpillar and now He's preparing me to be a butterfly. It's definitely a cocoon place--it feels gooey and dark and like things are moving around--growing. It's been a somewhat painful place, too--like sore muscles or itchy new skin. Preparation has NOT been what I thought it would be. I've spent more time with the Lord than storing food, but as He wishes.
ReplyDeleteThe other word I keep hearing over and over again from the Lord is "Get your house in order." (and delivered in a firm manner). It's been all about priorities (Him first and more of Him!) and clearing out anything dead in the mind, spirit, and body and replacing my strength with His. I've been lead to take a good look at my earthly possessions and to repent, repent, repent. The Lord has also lead me to be fiercely honest with myself and others. There is no more time for sugar coating the message anymore. Warn and save.
When in doubt, Proverbs 2:6-9:
"For the LORD gives wisdom; from his mouth come knowledge and understanding.
7 He holds success in store for the upright, he is a shield to those whose walk is blameless,
8 for he guards the course of the just and protects the way of his faithful ones.
9 Then you will understand what is right and just and fair—every good path."
In other words, be faithful to God, honest, have integrity, and He will show you what to do.
Thank you all again for the words! It's so comforting and exciting to see others get the exact same wordings from our Lord! How amazing is He!
Patriot - Wow - Great comment. Thanks for posting!
ReplyDeleteanamchara and chief and patriot, good posts. very informative and right on posts.
ReplyDeleteI only wish those who dont understand will take the little time thats remaining to understand what you all said.
As for preparing, people I've talked to (my brother included) believe that "trusting God" is all thats needed. To which I respond, then why did God demand Noah to build an ark?
Prepare in every way that the spirit urges you to prepare. Like everyone agreed upon, spiritually first.
Many people have asked me how much food should I prepare with? I tell them, I don't know, how long do you want to have something to eat?
Everyone reading this has a special gift or purpose. Not all of us are warriors, spiritual or otherwise. Don't try to be what you are not, just be what God created in you.
Now is the time to know what that is.
Everyone will be and is, needed.
Glynda, your word confirms what the Lord is saying to us here. Amongst other things, we have been reading the letter of James together every day for the past week and exactly what you say is what the Lord has been firmly emphasising.
ReplyDeleteAlso, interestingly, five years ago, the Lord told us that it was time to start living in tents - by which He meant to leave the church system, which has been infiltrated by the world. In this way we would become flexible, able to expand or contract as the Lord led, able to up sticks at a moment's notice.
It cost us much, but we don't regret it.
Since then we have been worshiping Him in our homes, meeting frequently to eat, pray and read the Bible together.
ElderX
ReplyDeleteI heard God say as I inquired of Him regarding the Judgment of America' Yes, I am judging America I will pour out my wrath on those that refuse to hear and obey. While I pour out My wrath I also pour out my mercy on those who cry out to Me in faith."
If you read the accounts of those who were caught in the storms, earthquakes and tsunamis you will find the survivors poured out their hearts to God and were miraculously spared. What many fail to realize that our God is a God of love and wrath. He loves us but cannot tolerate sin and will only permit it so long. We have turned our backs on Israel and now we will suffer the penalty. Peace to you who believe and cry out to God.
ElderX - Thank you so much for that comment - I have gotten a number of messages from YouTube viewers who watched the video I made about America becoming the Harlot of the World saying God is love and won't judge. All through the Bible He clearly is a God of both love AND judgment, and scripture says He changes not. We need to pray that their eyes will be opened in time, so many seem to be deceived or in denial and they will not be ready in time. Thanks for posting!
ReplyDeleteDBUCK,
ReplyDeletePreparation is very biblical. Look at the story of Joseph. The Pharoh saw in a dream 7 fat cows and 7 lean ones. Joseph interpreted the dream of 7 prosperous years for Egypt followed by 7 lean years.
Well did Joseph sit around and say, just trust in God to make it better? No He had Egypt put back great stores of food in preparation for these 7 lean years and he was able to save his own family along with everyone else in the region.
So its biblical to prepare for lean, or bad times. Those who don't do not understand the bible.
Glynda,

An interesting insight to Joseph's Dream Interpretation to Pharaoh. Here's an excerpt:
What's Coming...
May 31, 2011
Nancy
What God Said Recently:
In a previous email I told about God informing Rev. Jimmy Swaggart recently that the worst famine in the history of the world is coming. God showed him the ancient Pharaoh of Egypt. God told him that not all of the vision God gave Pharaoh (of 7 fat and lean cows, etc.) was fulfilled in Pharaoh's time. The part that remains to be fulfilled about the stalks (depicted in the picture above and translated "corn" by KJV) is for our time. Just as the first famine brought Jacob back to Joseph, so the purpose of this next famine is to bring Jacob (Israel) back to Jesus their Messiah. Below is what you don't know and how it's playing out now.
Looking up the story in the King James Bible :
Gen 41:5-6 And he slept and dreamed the second time: and behold, seven ears of corn came up upon one stalk, rank and good. And behold, seven thin ears and blasted with the east wind sprang up after them.
So the wind/ Tornado's are in play now.
from Sept 9, 2001 - Sept 9, 2008 was 7 years. (Those years were the good year) Sept 9 2008 on have been exponentially bad and getting worse. which means we are in the 7 bad yrs.
I see 2012 as the half way point in the 7 yr Tribulation. If you look at interview with
Pastor Mark Biltz a Messianic Jew he explains the significance of the God-ordained Jewish feasts in relation to end time events. falling on Blood Moons.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=baBRvkCARkY
I will add to the witness that it is indeed time to prepare physically. This will mean different things to different people as the Spirit of the Lord leads you. Our relationship with God is what is most important because it is through our personal relationship that we will be guided as to what to do.
ReplyDeleteChief,
I agree 100% that God is giving us the option whether to stay or leave. He will not force anyone to leave. Like Lot, many may end up barely escaping once the full brunt of judgment kicks in.
On this topic, it seems like we are all agreeing on something.
When all this high tech whiz bang convienance is no longer at your fingertips to turn to at your whim, you will only have the word thats in you, your bible to refer to and study, and your Lord to Pray and talk to, and to trust with everything. So get out a piece of paper and write all our names down now and stick it in your bible so you can remember everyone to pray for and look forward to meeting on that Wonderfull day that isn't too far off. And on the prepared thing, It will not hurt to have extra things you really need, but if you carry it on your back it gets down to the real nitty gritty, if you have a vehicle it can be more but learning to trust the Lord is really the key of all of it, some folks are bedriddin in hospitals or locked up with four walls to look at, what of them? The Father has them, thats what. Get with the program people. Manyrounds out.
ReplyDeletePreparation for today and tomorrow begins with the heart. If a person has their heart right with the Lord, their mind will follow. I believe in preparing for famine with the basics first. You must have clean water. Preserved source, such as an isolated spring, and a way to treat any source of water on had thru purification or most preferrable, distillation. Secondly, dry and non-perishable food items such as rice or wheat. I prefer wheat berries with a hand grinder. Remember; you may not have electricity. If kept dry and sealed up, wheat will keep indefinitely. However; to make good bread you need some oil and yeast. I read that some wheat berries were found in an ancient burial tomb(thousands of years old) and were brought out and sprouted. Gold, may or may not be good for bartering, but good bread will be worth it's weight in gold, at some point in time, for someone, somewhere.
ReplyDeleteThis message is for ska55124, the one at the top of this comment chain and seeks to answer the question "Can anyone tell me what I am missing?" Since no one has seemed to answer that I feel I need to mention one thing that greatly helped me to hear the voice of God. Although it is the Spirit of God that ultimately teaches us, in my 35 years as a Christian nothing has facilitated the Holy Spirit like the WORK STUDY book by Henry Blackaby entitled Experiencing God; Knowing and Doing the Will of God. As the title suggests there are two parts to experiencing God, aka hearing God's voice, and the same two parts are beautifully illustrated in Rev 3:20. So my friend, check out both that verse and then the workbook (not the book-book).
ReplyDeleteGlynda, Hebrews 6:10 is for you. Thanks so much.
Michael
Michael, thank you for your post, same with you Glynda, I have gone through the Experiancing God long time ago, and not sure if I still have the workbook. I know my heart is in the right place, I like what mctread said, that the mind will follow, still waiting, but probably not putting personal time in like I am supposed to. I constaintly throw mini thoughts and prayers constantly as they come to mind throughout the day, not daily but I am re-reading the Old Testament and finding common traits to what is going on here in America today, it is amazing to see. I guess it just boils down to the personal time. Since my annual training is done, YAY, i won't be so distracted, but alas, I am sure I will find something else.
ReplyDeleteAlso would like you guys to pray for Brandon's family, he is a 17 year old friend that I play Wizard 101 with, his older brother just committed suicide. Glynda, I told him what you had said regarding demon's remaining in areas where suicide has taken place and told him to constantly pray to G-d and to have Jesus in their hearts constantly to protect them. I have experience in that as well with the suicide of two of my cousins who were brothers.
Thanks everyone, blessings in Jesus's name!
ska - I'm so very sorry to hear about your friend's brother. There are no words to describe how devastating it is to lose a brother like that. My brother was only 21 and we were very close. I still miss him. I will pray for your friend. I'm really glad you warned him about that spirit. Hugs to you - and to him. ~ Glynda
ReplyDeleteska - Yes, I will be praying as well. And yes, I think you are on to something when you say that you're not spending the amount of personal time with the Lord that you need to, especially in light of the times we are in.
ReplyDeleteIt is time for not only mini thoughts all day long but maxi-prayer times and mega-quiet times with Him.
I'd like to suggest that you take another look at the Experiencing God Workbook and also take another look at what Glynda posted at the top of this comment chain, the one dated May 27th. I think you may have missed something that was said there.
Blessings to you,
Michael
Psalm 91:1
Now all here might want to look at what Veriseeker said on Glynda's other prophecy:
ReplyDeleteVeriseeker said...
"Faith is not going to save hundreds of millions of Christians. Revelations is full of examples of deaths of saints and Christian martyrs for the time of sorrows and Tribulation."
Here is the danger I believe Veriseeker is warning us about. Many Christians, especially those in the modern love church have been raised on a theology of fun, lots of songs, warm fuzzy feelings, and love love love. If things get real nasty out there, I will have to agree with Veriseeker that many Christians are going to get whacked and probably in a not too glamorous way.
So the modern love child is not going to handle the rough times very well being raised in the love church.
Also as I have warned about, the love church is very vulnerable to deception because it's main focus is love before understanding. So this crew will probably be a little more defenseless that others.

ReplyDeleteA new prophetic message sent to me by my friend Kathy (thank you, Kathy, for sharing this!)
Storms are coming. Turmoil such as has never been seen before. Turmoil in the
land, on the streets, and in peoples lives. Many souls will be lost. Many will
be caught unawares, many will perish. Those that have been listening to My
words of warning, and those that honour My name, will not be caught out. Great
upheaval will beset mankind. It cannot be stopped. Those once proud and mighty, will be brought low. Kingdoms, cities and mountains will be leveled.There is no escape, but you be found in Me....Read the rest of this word at: http://jehoshua.com/modules/wordpress/?p=137
Hi ska,
ReplyDeleteI'm so sorry to hear about Brandon's brother. I'll pray for him and his family.
Is this the same Brandon that posted here last week?
I thought I might offer what helped
me to start hearing God's voice.
Actually, it was two things that got me there.
Early in my walk I was desperate to hear God's voice. So I decided to talk first. Every day I read Psalm 119 out loud to God. It was very powerful and for the first few months I sobbed most of the way through it.
Then a friend brought to my attention that by saying I'm not hearing from God I was actually denying the truth that His sheep hear His voice. So I read that scripture and believed that God keeps His word.
It wasn't very long after that, maybe a few weeks, that Bam! I heard His voice! Or at least I thought I did. By that afternoon I was questioning was that you God?
And, of course, the devil was doing his best to condemn me - who do you think you are that God spoke to you? God wouldn't just tell you to pray Psalm 23 for that man that was dying. You should have..., bla,bla,bla.
By the time I went to evening service that night I was so beat up from what the devil was saying -
you blew it, you didn't do what God was telling you to do...
Bless God! In the middle of the worship service that night, a guy grabbed the microphone and started singing Psalm 23!! I knew then, weak kneed and sobbing, that God had indeed spoken to me. And that He wanted me to know that I had done exactly what He asked me to do.
All in one day: I heard His voice, I agonized with the thought that I may have blown it, God used an extraordinary way to confirm that He was speaking to me and He clearly showed me the difference between His voice and the accuser's.
It was later that I learned the principles behind what God did for me. "Faith comes by hearing, and hearing the word of God"
So, by directing me to read Psalm 119 out loud, God was building my faith. Which prepared the soil, so to speak, for me to "expect" God to keep His word about the sheep hearing His voice.
When He confirms His word, He often
uses unexpected sources even when we don't know enough to ask for confirmation.
Be Blessed!
Kathy - Thank you so much for sharing how you learned to hear the voice of the Lord !! That is an awesome testimony!
ReplyDeleteSorry about the bad link earlier, guys - here is a link to the website for the I Will Carry You word:
ReplyDeletehttp://jehoshua.com/
In battle, two giants dead, need prayer, thanks friend, more later, ease your mind. In prayer for all of us. I get it. out
ReplyDeleteThis resonants so much with my Spirit. Today, when I awoke, God spoke to me that He will not abandon His children but it is His promise to care for those that He adores and that walk in obedience to Him. Thanks for this great word. I know it's true. Let us pray without ceasing for this nation and our President and the many things that are coming. We know we are moving into the endtimes much more now. Let us take courage and stay filled with the Spirit and the Word of God. Thank you, Prophetess Glynda!!!

ReplyDelete"The Love Church" -- Hmm, isn't that a good thing.. to be known by one's love? The "greatest" of these is "Love" and so on, right? Using some different terminology would help here.
ReplyDeleteTY Glynda for posting these words you share here. They resonate with me too. Thanks for encouraging us in the faith.
Hey Everyone, Just wanted to let you know I have created a Live Chat page for those of you who want to interact about theology, doctrine, or other subjects not related directly to the words posted here or experiences/words you have had or heard of that relate directly to the words. Click on the page link at the top right. The Live Chat has been added in an effort to keep all discussions in comments restricted to those things that apply directly to the words being posted. Comments containing theological type stuff will no longer be approved - not because I don't like you :-) or because I necessarily disagree but because I have received a large volume of email from readers who find it distracting. I think discussion can be good, and thought provoking,so I have created a place just for that. God bless you all - Glynda
