WOW

(part 2 ... read the last post first!)

WOW.

Then we were called to come forward for communion when we felt led. I wanted to go up first ... and then I got my dipped matzo and knelt off to the side. I started just confessing and going over the thoughts God had shown me in the last hour. THEN before I knew it was happening someone was there with her arm around me, praying!!!!

She was praying for me! I don't remember it exactly but the basic gist was this...

Father, Lord, You know this beautiful creature next to me... and I just feel led to remind her how much she is loved by You ... how You sent Jesus to die in her place... and how much You want her to go on and do great things in Your name.... But God too I feel led to pray against depression and loneliness. I cast them out in the name of Jesus and pray that You will bring healing into those places in her....

WOW.

Her prayer was actually much longer but like I said that was the gist. The Lord sent her so I could hear Him speak to me. He didn't speak in my head or heart, I could not feel His presence directly... He was just there in her ... and she spoke the very things that had been on my heart all that day - all that week.

She gave me a hug and got up... and then in a few minutes came back asking if I needed to talk. I shared a bit of my story and I thanked her for her obedience to the Lord. I told her that the Lord did indeed speak those things through her to me ... and that I did need them! I never got her name ... she said she didn't even go to our church but was in a YWAM group visiting for the night. 

What a crazy blessing!
