That's a nice story and all but it's just something you heard. Believe me, if the Klan in Texas back then wanted someone gone it would take a lot more than a fire to scare them off.

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

In all honesty I can't make much sense of a lot of what you write. You don't use punctuation and your train of thought is all over the place. I think the best thing I can probably do for us both is stop reading your posts and stop responding. Hope you have a blessed day.

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

Reminds me of This Scripture:

2Co_10:10 "For his [Paul's] letters, say they, are weighty and powerful; but his bodily presence is weak, and his speech contemptible."

Preach on brother. Amen?

Doctrine is what separates believers from those who are imitation.
Actually, I think the Bible says works and fruit are what separates the faithful and unfaithful.

'imitation' = UNbelievers, Correct?

faithful (working/fruit bearing), and UNfaithful (carnal) believers, Correct?

So yes this is not a normal year and you best beleive death is the theme but for those who die to themselves who surrender all who let him take the wheel and have ownership for those who make him their Lord they will see the power of God himself and they will have living water overflowing out of them they will walk in the spirit and their steps will be guided in everything they will be blessed because they gave up their will to their Lord they die daily in the flesh and live and walk in the resurrection and life of Christ. This a year to shut up and get serious because even prophetically even to someone who doesnt really study bible prophecy everyone can see the end times shoving itself in our face and if this is a year of death kind of gives a feeling that we dont have much time huh? Get your house in order choose now today who you serve youi got plans for today? Cool to bad his plan for today is the only plan that is perfect if you diied this morning your alive in him you surrendered yourself your gave over your flesh and now you are resurrected not just when your saved but every single morning of everyday you need to die or else this power you read about this world defying existance wont be yours because your still alive in your flesh and you can say he is your Lord but is he?

To be honest this is something I myself am still trying to grasp and I am nowhere near grasping it trust but I felt God telling me to speak on these things and not to just speak on them but to bash them over everyones heads I have had his actual power poured into me to the point I was so stunned and could only sit there smiling with the biggest grin on my face laughing like an idiot I had his presence in my room so thick and dense that I refused to leave my room even purposely missing my eye doctor appointment which is vital for my eyes as I have been trying to heal my eyes for six years now but when your in his glorious beautiful and powerful presence your home your in the kingdom your in a different dimension and you know it and your not leaving it for anything this has happened several times I had supernatual experiences that I never had before I had the holy spirit posses my body in church moving it without my control walking up to the stage where the preacher was preaching powerfully and this was with a broken foot mind you and when I got to the top of the stairs in a trance several other people suddenly ran behind as if they knew what was about to happen and the preaching put her hands on my and began speaking in tongues for the first time ever I fell backwards with no strength or choice in the matter the second she put her hands on me and the other people caught me and as I lay there overwhelmed by the spirit as everyone had their hands on me praying in tongues i could only stare upwards smiling I even tried to force myself up but just couldnt

I even when I got home had his presence with me and this was when he first filled my room in an ocean of his presence and I got on my knees and surrendered to him even bowing my head all the way to the ground my body curled up before him and these things happened and lasted for three days and sometimes rarely he sometimes fills my room again

So to me he is foreshadowing something and I cant wait for when he fills my room with his presence again. Chase his presence seek it and dont stop until you find it his presence is something you will never understand yet it is home it is him it is his love his power it is his kingship
Yes. Total surrender is what He desires and what He requires. It is safe for us to do this because He proved His love for us.

John 15:13
“Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends.”

So good to see you again, @Blain !
How have you been?

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

You know my saying that I often say there is a difference between a Christian by title and a Christian by heart? There is a surpising amount of goats among the sheep

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.

Jesus is The Lord, like it or not; He is Lord of all, end of story. Now if you are in rebellion or submitted is a whole other issue. When He quells all rebellion its best to not be one if those folks; it dont end well for them.

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.
