I told the story for a reason it wasnt just because I was amazed by the story it was because of the point of the story.
See what amazes me about the story isn't the fact their base was on fire after they threatened tihs old lady it was the old lady herself and how she held herself This old lady who by all means should be afraid as she is threatened to be beaten tortured and killed knew who she belonged to and the position she held in him she was so confident in him that flat out told them they would have to walk through to touch her.
She didnt pray or do anything special she didnt call on Jesus to rescue her she stood with him he didnt need to come to her rescue because he was with her she stood in a relationship with him where he would catch a building on fire for her behalf how many can have confidence in him so much they can say he would catch aa building of fire for them?
See this wasnt a thing of faith it is way beyond that it is about confidence in him where we stand in him. When you abide him so much you expect a reaction from him if anyone harms or threatens to harm you then your in a whole other league with him than most people and this is where we need to be with him
It may be just a story to some but what I got from it says otherwise

so I am legally blind and if a legally blind person says this that is saying something you have eyes to see but no ears to hear. Think about what I said what did I make a point of more than anything? Does confidence in him ring a bell? Does position mean anything to you?
If what I said went so far over your head then how are you supposed to be able hear and understand God when he is speaking to you? Your not listening that is your problem let me ask you this think for a second if God has been speaking to you are you willing to risk missing his message?
Because I promise you he is speaking and if you cant hear what he is saying then you just arent listening

But you need to understand something I am also a writer at heart I know the power words have I also naturally speak my heart he knows me and uses me in this way.
I'm not kidding when I say he is done messing around and we need to get to the program the things I say are often all over the place and dont make sense to the average person but see I dont operate like you when I write I am synced in to him so often times he speaks through me I never know what I am going to say or write I pick up the pen he writes
So think about that dont think about me myself think about the words and author of the words spokenwithout the holy spirit the things I say will be erratic and wont make sense thats because your only seeing the tree not the forest
And im sorry if what I am laying is to much for you but Im not messing around I'm telling it as it is and if you cant deal with what is being told to you then your not ready to bring your imput in this is grown up stuff you to listen out of all I have said at the very least take what I said Listen this is what he is trying to get you to do like frustrating so and dont tell me you have been because you cant lie to me on this there is a message he is ringing pick up the phone already

Yes surrender it's a true blessing from heaven itself true surrender is the most amazing experience ever I would love to be brought to my knees again it's like being born again but on a whole different degree.
And it is amazing to see you again as well my friend I won't lie the past three years have torture the powers of hell had their way in my life and all I could do was cling to God for dear life and just sit there and take it I had no power whatso ever to do anything about it.
But in the surrender I obtained a lot more than a revelation Oh no I was before the very throne of God I experienced the kingdom I was slammed his with kingship and he showed me who we really are in him and what the mission really is
The powers of hell attacked me and my life for three years and I flat out told hell and all the forces of darkness just yesterday your under my feet and you seem to have forgotten where you actually stand and who is with me as I did this with authority I swear I felt hell tremble.
I went from trembling from the so called powers of hell to spitting in it's face

I just want to tell of an encounter I just had. I was sitting here at my desk in the dark just listening to praise music and worshipping him when I went into a trance and I saw myself in what I call my secret garden a place I am able to visit sometimes where every beauty and wonder of nature is like your eyes feasting on what your seeing the colors the depth of the visual wonder makes the most beautiful things here look like a poor imitation where the breeze that rushes throughout the garden is like a refreshing clean bath and you breath in the air there like it's first time actually breathing and there is a lake of living there where I would go and play with the holy spirit.
This garden is special to me it's wonders and presence of God are my hrarts treasure but when I had this trance and was brough there it was for a breif moment then I was before a garden of my own om a small patch of land with some things sprouting but it was not at all an impressive garden
I knew the king was coming to visit and if he is coming to visit you better treat his visit with respect you don't due just good enough when your preparing for a visit from the king.
He somehow knew of my thinking and suddenly appeared he had arrived way early and I looked at my garden that I wanted to make him proud with and it was pretty lame and I embarrisingly told him so but then I said but if your help me we can get the work done twice as fast
He offered to simply make my garden for me with his power but I said no Lord I know you can perform miracles but I want to work with you on this I like hard work and working with you to make our secret garden is what will make this a special garden.
I tell of this in hopes it will bless people I sowed a seed of the kingdom and until that garden is finished Jesus and I have work to do but when it is finished I want to invite everyone there.

She started off with "imitation = UNbelievers", which I don't totally agree with because unbelievers usually aren't claiming to be (or imitating) believers. Then among those who do claim it, you have those who's fruit and works show them to be unfaithful. That's why I kinda wanted a clarification from her, because typically unbelievers are not imitators.
