October 2019 When I journal I obviously talk to the Lord about what concerns me. Sometimes I get distracted by something external that is going on. I change course and sometimes the Lord will respond in a random type way, like ‘by the way. . .’
We were having some drama in our family and my father-in-law was very upset and emotional. My husband was going to meet with him.
From the journal . . . . November 2007
. . .Oh Lord, I’ve prayed in the spirit for this time with Mark and Dick. Mark prayed that he be small and You be big. That’s so great.
And I Believe God Said:
I am using things in your lives for my purposes. I shine my light to reveal certain things. Ha, my daughter, you see how you love Me more when I use you?! And it isn’t even hard. Continue to submit to me. Continue to give me your heart. Continue to go in peace, especially when things go in a different direction. Live your life and trust in me. Believe in me.
Romans 8:28
Oh Lord, what a mighty wind is blowing outside! Are You mad at satan?
Furious, but he is going down and how great is that fall!
Rev 19:15-16 NLT Isaiah 14:12-15 NLT
The Lord is a jealous God,
filled with vengeance and rage.
He takes revenge on all who oppose him
and continues to rage against his enemies!
3 The Lord is slow to get angry, but his power is great,
and he never lets the guilty go unpunished.
He displays his power in the whirlwind and the storm.
The billowing clouds are the dust beneath his feet. Nahum 1:2-3
