A Godly Encounter (not redemption related)
« on: November 16, 2011, 03:40:02 AM »
It started when i had a girlfriend and she left me to get with my forner best friend and someone as close to me as a brother but that's off topic. after 2 weeks of being single on the 2nd friday i was going for internship, i started to feel like i was absolutely useless and i could tell The Devil was on the prowl and had me right where he wanted me and kept on throwing words of discouragement and depression right at me and i didn't have the sense or the strength to defend myself and at the end of the day my dad came and picked me up and on the road the attacks at me from Satan continued and in tears i cried out to God in my mind and my heart out of despiration and weakness and i prayed to God with tears flowing and it did not take long for God to answer.
I heard him im my mind and my heart and he said gently "Andy, trust in me, and everything will be alright" and i faithfully said "Yes Lord, i do trust you with all my heart" and that wasn't the last time i heard from him because he reached out to me and gave me a task to do which was not too difficult at all. he said to me gently yet firm "Go to church on sunday" and i in faith replied "Yes Lord" that very sunday i witnessed a mircale right before my very ears. God was using the pastor that day to speak to me and told me about and revealed to me that the devil was making me feel useless and i did have a grudge against my former best friend and my ex girlfriend and after that, i forgave them for what they did and asked for a copy of the sermon after church and someone on the tech team at my church handed me a copy of the sermon on CD and the sermon was titled "God heals hidden wounds" that weekend i will NEVER forget.

God be praised and bless him for he is and will forever be just and good and glory be to him that created the heavens and the earth when the earth was void and without form
guess what? I gotta fevah and the only prescription is more defense!

I'm glad that God was able to reach you, and that you were willing to listen. Kudos to your pastor for following God's prompting about his sermons.
