I fasted this week – on and off. This was odd. I had set it in my mind to fast for a day and a half starting Tuesday evening. Well, I got a call from Daystar about my sozo, and Joanne suggested fasting. Funny. So, I put it in my heart to fast for 3 days. However, I had already set a breakfast meeting and a lunch meeting. I decided to not fast for these meetings. I dont know if it mattered to God or not, but I felt guilty for it. The enemy…
I think that God wanted me to do fruit for bfast, but I did french toast. That wasnt so good. I can obey the big things, but I struggle in the small. But, disobedience is disobedience. I need grace.
There were several cool things God did this week. John Spiknall and I spoke Thursday. John had just gotten a job here in ATL. He mentioned that he started work Monday and had no place to live. I told him that God would bring it to him this weekend. We prayed for it. Within 10 minutes of hanging up, John called me back and left a message. Some guy was prompted to call him and offered him a place to live. Yea God!
I had several encounters with men from Crossroads last week. It’s way cool to watch the Lord speak through me to these guys. Bless God.
But, yesterday was a bit odd. I met with Rich White who is an ex Homebanc guy. Within a few minutes of sitting down, Rich started talking to me about doing ministry and that I am not where I am called to be, even though I am where God wants me. Then, he starts asking me about seminary. He says that I need to go because there is authority that comes with the degree. The world does not give credibility without it. He shared regret at not having completed his studies in some business field and encouraged me to go. I had not spoken anything about any of my story to him. This is crazy. It is God. So, I am going to seminary, Lord willing.
However, the testimony of two or three witnesses confirms the Word of God. I am waiting for the second witness and for direction on which seminary God wants me to attend. Then, on top of my already busy schedule, I shall be studying.
Now I can see why He was admonishing me about resting in Him. He will bring me the supernatural deals to get the sales. I will be focusing on ministering to the Crossroads folks and studying along side of my selling. There is good fruit in the Crossroads stuff. It’s amazing how many contacts I am making. Bless God. He will do it.
So Lord, I ask in the name of Your Son to confirm seminary for me. Also, please show me which one. I will certainly go immediately and obey Your Word.
Thank You, Jesus.
Amen
