The Bible says God's eyes go through the earth looking for those in which He can show Himself strong. Do you pray His eyes land on you? (I sure do....all the time!) "Here am I, Lord, send me!"
Anyway, this little thread is to share God stories with the beloved...it will bring encouragement, joy, and hope to so many!

Okay I'll go first. Last night, we had our Good Friday service and a LOT of people were there...probably twice as many as last year (we're a growing church). Anyway, the preacher gave the invitation for those who didn't know the Lord to give their hearts to Him and become His followers and we had two people raise their hands...Hallelujah!! What a great testimony to tell...."I got saved on Good Friday!"
Jesus' sacrifice was known even before Creation: Rev 13:8 All who dwell on the earth will worship him, whose names have not been written in the Book of Life of the Lamb slain from the foundation of the world.

Ya'll need to open your eyes and see God moving all around you!
We had two people who accepted Jesus as their Lord and Savior! Heaven and Earth rejoices at the greatest miracle we ever witness...the dead raised to life!
A few weeks, an elderly sister in church came up for prayer..her name is Odette and her daughter's name is Janelle. Janelle was working at a refugee came camp in Zambia and in late-March was kidnapped and they went all this time without hearing a word from her.
This morning, she called her Mom...she's been found!!! HALLELUJAH!! The whole church was crying with Joy....we hope to hear her story soon...

Hallelujah ! good report Gman.
When I was really ill about 2 yrs and 8mos. ago...when I finally woke up....I went to an Acute Rehab Unit from ICU. I think I have an understanding of PTSS now, as I knew nothing when I woke up, and had no idea where or what had happened to me. I was really scared, I put my light on every 20 minutes to ask questions, and this was in the middle of the night. God sent this sweet nurse, she sat down on the bed and just hugged me. She said, I will come every 30 minutes and check on you. I will not leave you....she hugged me and answered a million questions of mine. She did come a half hour later, and then I must have went to sleep as I never remember the rest of the night.
Well, I was shopping this week and I saw her face and she came right over and said, "Mary....I am so glad to see you again" Tell me all about your self and your recovery...as I have prayed for you for yrs. It was like seeing a long lost Christian friend. What a loving person. It is amazing how God supplies, when you need.

Wow, sis, I love that testimony! Isn't it amazing how Abba Father puts just the right person in our lives at just the right time?
One of my friends told me that over the past year the Lord's put someone named Keith on her heart for prayer. She doesn't know anybody named Keith but over and over the Lord asked her to pray for him.
This week, she was out having coffee with some friends and there was a man outside on the street corner begging. (She said you could tell he was homeless....we have a LOT here in town.) Anyway, the Lord told her to go give him all the money that was in her purse. She knew she only had $20 in her purse and that was all of her money for the rest of week but went out to give it him anyway. She got to talking to him and sharing how much Jesus loves him and he began to cry and opened up to her and told her all of his problems over the past year. After a while, she got his name, Keith....yep, he's the one she's been praying for the past year! He got to meet his prayer warrior and also heard of the love of the Savior.

A relative has been having a very bad time mentally. She got so bad I had to blk her from my phone. She would call family members and go into a rage and no one would know what she was talking about. She was just horrible to folks. Would rather tell a lie, even when the truth was a better story. The day before yesterday, I prayed very hard for her. It was like I felt compelled to pray. Last night she called me on our home phone line. She was very angry and mad but I just calmly said, lets visit about nice stuff. The conversation then went good. I thank the Lord for having her call.

Isn't it neat how the Almighty (who isn't constrained or limited by time) can give us an unction to pray before something comes our way? The unction to pray is what I think of whenever the Bible says, "Prepare ye the way..."
One of my friends was talking to an elderly minister and, in the 70's, the minister had a vision of people in China. (China was very closed, even into the 70's) Anyway, in his vision, he saw many Chinese with little televisions in their hands and they were watching American's worshiping. Remember, music videos weren't even invented nor were smart phones! Today, the Church is exploding in China and I'm sure many of them watch worship videos because many of them have to meet in secret so our big worship events must be a huge blessing for them to watch.
