Mom's emmaus walk
It's been way too long since I last posted. It's not because God has not been at work because he has! He has revealed himself in such great and mighty ways! 2 weeks ago I felt I was under A LOT of spirtual warfare. I felt like the devil and God were battling..I know that sounds odd..but just hang with me for a min..My mom was fixing to go on her Emmaus walk at blue lake (sept 5th through the 8th) : spiritual retreat. The Devil does NOT want anyone going to this..why would he? He hates when we get spirtually renewed and closer to God..he will try EVERYTHING in his power to prevent this..well I started getting sick..sinus stuff. Then my dad had issues with his stomach. We really felt like the Devil was trying to prevent us from going to take her up there..mom also started having sinus issues. We then prayed for Healing in the prayer chapel at church and literally the next day all 3 of us were on the mend /healed! Power of prayer is AWESOME!
God also was revealing himself to me during this struggle by giving me the number 3:33 A LOT! I would be watching a tv show (downton abbey) and the number 3 was on the train doors 3 times, I would drive 33 miles to a pt's house, I would go 33 minutes to a pt's house, Gas was 3:33 at 3 different gas stations, He showed me Job 33:14 ("For God does speak, now one way, now another, though no one perceives it"). WOW! I thought literally that I was losing my mind..I would all the time chuckle whenever he showed me this number..it was VERY persistent! Like he was saying "I'm here, I've got this!
Well he wasn't done with his revealing yet..the time came to drive my mom up to Blue Lake for her retreat! I was so excited in the am and thought that would be cool if God gave me a rainbow today since He gave me a rainbow in the sky on my emmaus walk and also on the day my dad went on his walk to Emmaus! So as I'm walking the girls to school I look behind me and there is a rainbow in the sprinklers that were on! How awesome! I was so super excited that he still found a way to give me a rainbow! Well he wasn't done yet...I go to pay the bill at Gator Cafe and my bill was 33 dollars! Hahha! So then I walk outside and it was slightly overcast and sunny..and I thought I bet there is a rainbow. So I walk into the parking lot, I turn around and stare at this cloud and all of a sudden a rainbow appears..very faint..I was super excited but also mad that it was so faint since I thought that won't make a great pic..but then as soon as i thought that it got brighter and bigger and lasted about half way to blue lake. I was jumping up and down in parking lot..people probably thought i was crazy but then they got excited and took pics too! Oh HOW GOD LOVES US!!!!!!!!!!!
So about a week goes by after all these wonderful revelations..I'm driving to work this am and my prayer to God was that he would reveal himself to me and that I don't want to miss him in anything..well on my windshield it started fogging over..well I start looking intently and all of a sudden I see a cross and to the right of that a smiley face! It was so awesome..:) He delights in revealing himself to us and even greater when we get sooo excited about it! I pray that you won't miss what he's trying to reveal to you..I pray that all our hearts/minds/ears will be open to him. Thank you lord for your Revelations! All praise and Honor and Glory are yours NOW and Forever! AMEN!
