So, I want to start on Page 3. Here’s a great sentence: “...we want the devil and his plans to go back to the hell where they came from.” Priscilla was talking about the hell God designed for the evil one and his groupies. But any adult knows there are different kinds of hell in this world. I want to talk about those self-imposed ‘hells’ and God’s power over them. Yesterday I experienced a God-event. I don’t say that flippantly, but in a most profound way. Have you ever had an issue in your life that became so big you knew only God could fix it? You had no idea how to do it yourself - or you would! Mine lead me into desperate, tearful, and repeated prayers of, "Help me!" Yesterday, in response to those cries - He stepped in. Do I know what happened? Yes. Do I understand why it helped me and why I feel so free and joyful today? No. What does it mean that He intervened and yet I don’t understand what he fixed? It means GOD IS GREAT and he saw what hurt. He saw what was going wrong. He corrected what needed correcting. He's a merciful God who removes hurt and fixes what's broken ~ all to accomplish His purpose through you. Then ~ HE IGNITES THE POWER HE PLANTED IN YOU. Can the enemy give you anything other than pain and lies? No! But he wants you to think he can! He wants you to believe you can fix what’s going wrong in your life ~ even the things you DON’T UNDERSTAND ~ that you don't need God! Don’t believe that lie. Pray! Even if you don’t know why it hurts or what to say - JUST PRAY! Cry out the simplest request, “Help me!” He sees you. He hears you. He is faithful! I’m so thankful He fixed what I still don’t understand… because now, as experience teaches me, I will understand someday. Then He will ignite the wisdom gained in that suffering for His purpose in another moment and another time to benefit another. And that is a great God! Amen, amen and amen...
