RHEMA 6/07/13 FOLLOWING THE PATH OF THE RED LICORICE
EXPERIENCE: Today I suffered extreme exhaustion,
(probably due to taking some prednisone this week) and I
had 2 doctors appointments. So I was really praying for
physical strength to get through the day.
In our Ears2Hear group, we are practicing the ways God
speaks and how to minister with them. Right now we are
doing a lesson on God Speaks Through Remembrance.
BRINGING ALL THINGS TO REMEMBRANCE
One of the ways God speaks to us is to bring things into
remembrance. Understanding the truth of that when
having the mind of Christ, is a key to hearing God that
lives inside of you more. The more fluent you become in
being led in this way, the more you learn to trust His
leading through bringing things into remembrance.
John 14:26 But the Comforter, who is the Holy Spirit,
whom the Father will send in my name, he shall teach you
all things, and
bring all things to your remembrance,
whatsoever I have said unto you.
1 Corinthians 2:14-16 But the natural man receives
not the things of the Spirit of God: for they are
foolishness unto him: neither can he know them, because
they are spiritually discerned. 15 But he that is
spiritual judges all things, yet he himself is judged of
no man. 16 For who has known the mind of the Lord, that
he may instruct him? But we have the mind of Christ.
Romans 8:14 For as many as are led by the Spirit of
God, they are the sons of God.
While I was driving to the doctor appt I thought, “If I
can ask the Lord for a prophetic Word for someone
through His bringing something into remembrance, then I
should be able to do the same in
abiding in
Him during the day. So I turned that into a prayer and
also ask Him, “What would You like to talk about? Can
You bring something into remembrance to introduce the
subject?”
QUICKENED REMEMBRANCE: I laughed because
immediately I thought of a red licorice rope! It
was very obviously Him since it just popped into my
memory and came out of the blue.
QUICKENED EYE GLANCE: I turned my head to look
at a car and it was the same color van as ours and the
last three letters on the plate spelled FLY.
PONDERINGS: I prayed that the Lord would help me
understand what a red licorice rope had to do
with His Word. It was kind of funny at the process He
took me through to get the revelation and I totally
delighted in the process. He brought into memory that
the word WAIT upon the Lord, means to bind together by
twisting. That is what red liquorish looks like, a
rope.
HEBREW WAIT
OT:6960
OT:6960 qavah (kaw-vaw'); a primitive root; to bind
together (perhaps by twisting), i.e. collect;
(figuratively) to expect:
KJV - gather (together), look, patiently, tarry, wait
(for, on, upon).
I then realized that a twisted ROPE is a lifeline, which
is His Word that He gives us to hold onto. And red is
the travail and sacrifice of laying down our own agendas
to wait upon His way and timing.
When I drove into the doctor’s parking lot I noticed the
wind gently blowing and it was such a lovely day as I
parked under a huge shade tree. I was pondering the
word FLY I was thinking about a bird waiting for the
wind and how it spreads its wings to rise higher and
soar.
OH I GET IT LORD!
The red licorice represents this scripture! This
was SO funny to me because He has given me this
scripture and Word to many, many times. He took me the
long way around to tell me He was answering my urgent
prayer for strength and also gave me a fun treasure hunt
in the process. Smiles.
Isaiah 40:31 But they that wait upon the LORD shall
renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as
eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; and they shall
walk, and not faint.
I felt SO satisfied to have walked through the process
of that Word, intimately knowing I was following His
lead, like a divine setup! After the doctor appt I went
to get groceries, and was just completely spent once I
landed in line at the check stand. After I placed my
groceries on the ramp, I saw a man’s hand put something
down right next to my divider I had put down at the end
of my groceries.
Oh my! It was a bag
of red licorice! I looked at him and he
smiled at me and I wondered if he was an angel! I felt
so comforted with his smile. Then as I was paying for
my stuff, I looked back to see what else he put on the
ramp. He had a pile of different kinds of bird seed,
and that is all!
I had a such a special day of intimacy in receiving His
simple promise that as we learn to pray, then wait upon
the Lord, He does renew us and give us strength and
provides for our future just like He feeds the birds!
Isaiah 40:31 But they that wait upon the LORD shall
renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as
eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; and they shall
walk, and not faint.
Matthew 6:25-34 Therefore I say unto you, Take no
thought for your life, what you shall eat, or what you
shall drink; nor yet for your body, what you shall put
on. Is not the life more than food, and the body than
clothing? 26 Behold
the fowls of the air: for they sow not, neither do they
reap, nor gather into barns; yet your heavenly Father
feeds them. Are you not much better than they?
27 Which of you by taking thought can add one cubit unto
his stature? 28 And why take you thought for clothing?
Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow; they
toil not, neither do they spin: 29 And yet I say unto
you, That even Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed
like one of these. 30 Therefore, if God so clothe the
grass of the field, which today is, and tomorrow is cast
into the oven, shall he not much more clothe you, O you
of little faith? 31 Therefore take no thought, saying,
What shall we eat? or, What shall we drink? or, How
shall we be clothed? 32 (For after all these things do
the Gentiles seek:) for your heavenly Father knows that
you have need of all these things. 33 But seek you first
the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these
things shall be added unto you. 34 Take therefore no
thought for tomorrow: for tomorrow shall take thought of
the things for itself. Sufficient unto the day is the
evil thereof.
AH: Today I turned to the following Word to
Ponder with anointed hands:
A SEASON OF SENSITIVITY 9/12/12
I AM bringing you into a new season of sensitivity to My
Spirit. Can you see the wind? Can you feel the wind?
Can you hear the wind? So it is for My Spirit, you
cannot see My Spirit, but you can see, feel and hear the
effects of My Spirit. I AM going to make you so
sensitive that you will be able to pick up the smallest
vibrations of My comings and goings, and this gift will
be like a compass as to My direction. When your put
your finger upon these vibrations, you will be able to
pick up the pulse of My heartbeat. Listen for this
evidence! It will be beautiful music for your ears to
hear and increase your faith.
John 3:8
The wind blows where it wishes, and you hear the
sound of it, but cannot tell where it comes from and
where it goes. So is everyone who is born of the
Spirit."
Heb 11:1-3
Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the
evidence of things not seen. 2 For by it the elders
obtained a good testimony. 3 By faith we understand
that the worlds were framed by the word of God, so that
the things which are seen were not made of things which
are visible. |
