So yesterday, I went to church to pray. My Sweet friend, The Holy Spirit asked me to 'just Pray.'
I can tend to be a sort of control freak; So 'just pray' doesnt do it for me. I would like to know what am I Praying about; who I am addressing my prayers to...you know? I would like to know who to Praise, or indeed question (lol), when the results come out.
So I sort of started conjuring thoughts in my mind of what I should be praying about. And He kept asking me not to do that. So eventually, I got it!I said, lets have it your way.
I left that tent feeling really soaked. It wasnt a feeling I could put a word name until today. I didnt get the whole gratification after prayer I usually would feel after such hours in His presence. I just felt like some blanket had been put around me in a way.
I attended the service in the afternoon; and the Word became real as I listened. Same thing happened in the evening when we had the leaders meeting. I was there thinking; gosh, am burning with something.
Usually, after a 4 hour prayer session, a 4 hour service session, and a 2 hour leaders meeting; getting home at around 9pm, I would love nothing but just a cuddle on my wonderfully made (By me), bed. I got down to studying the Word; and shouting out loud about Gods Goodness! I was milking every word! This was new.
Monday, 13th March - I was in the shower, and not singing for once! I was meditating... It has not happened before. But this meditation helped in the day.
I had once heard that, the reason why some things will never happen to you, are because you do not expect or even plan them to do so. For Instance, what would you do if you got Mwk1,000,000 right now? If you must think hard about that, that is why, the money is not coming your way.
So I started planning, right in the shower, what I would do If I got a Mwk10,000 during the day (Baby steps,lol). And truly, before it was noon, exactly Mwk10,000 go to me from an unsuspecting source. And I did with it EXACTLY what I meditated and planned to do with it.
But before that - I had a chance to be dropped afar from where I get a bus. But the Holy Spirit said no. So I got in the usual bus. I wasn't sure why; because I would have saved some transport money. But I was expectant of the surprise.
As I was in the bus; I started reading. And we had not traveled a foot away, before the guy next to me, asked me "whether the Holy Spirit is a Spirit or a personality."
Now; that is just a WEIRD question overall. Its WEIRDER when its coming from a stranger.
He asked me lots of questions throughout the ride. Turns out, this guy is not Born Again. So I explained to him how he cant see the kingdom of God - How he has to trust the Word of God. He said "No one has ever explained that to me." And I told him, well the Holy Spirit you asked about, led me right into that bus, just for you.
This guy (Who the Holy Spirit had diverted my plans for), was shy to give his life in front of people after we had dropped off, so he delayed the decision. God must so love him. And I love him. He who is loved by my Father, is loved by me. And It was awesome to witness to him.
My question though was; What made him ask ME that question? Like, how did he know that I had the answers for him?

And I can feel it through out the day.... That pull.... That drive.... That annointing??? Whatever it is, I am looking forward to knocking off and plain outright getting soaked again!
