Standing in Awe!
So much power has been moving through this ministry in the past week that we’re all standing in total awe and amazement! In addition to having one marriage restored very suddenly and unexpectedly last week, there have also been major breakthroughs for at least six other FAM Fellowship members since then! FAM Chat last Friday night was a total blast, and we were all so filled with an inexplicable sense of anticipation and expectation that we were almost giddy! An now we’re all blown away to see how that has proven to be so true! It’s like a consuming fire has started spreading through the ministry and we’re just seeing confirmation all over the place! So we want to thank our Lord and Savior for every blessing and every miracle and for the awesome work of restoration we see Him doing in our midst.
This morning one of the ladies in the fellowship called and was very excited because of Marsha Burn’s’ Small Straws and how it confirms exactly what we’re seeing in the ministry now. And then two other members sent emails referring to another ministry’s message for tomorrow since it’s a total confirmation of what we’ve seen in the ministry and what so much of our conversations over the past few days have been about. 1 Thessalonians 5:16-24 seems to sum it all up pretty well, because it says Be joyful always; pray continually; give thanks in all circumstances, for this is God’s will for you in Christ Jesus. Do not put out the Spirit’s fire; do not treat prophecies with contempt. Test everything. Hold on to the good. Avoid every kind of evil. May God himself, the God of peace, sanctify you through and through. May your whole spirit, soul and body be kept blameless at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ. The one who calls you is faithful and he will do it.
AMEN! He WILL do it and we are seeing Him do it! And just to share a little of the excitement among the fellowship members, here’s a post from Jenn, which she posted this afternoon, having no idea I already intended to use Marsha Burns’ Small Straws message in my post today! And I’m pretty sure there’s no way to read it without being very blessed and encouraged!
“I can’t even begin to tell you the incredible peace that God is giving me; not only in my situation, but in all of our marriages. Alex told me last night that not only does she hear peace in my voice, but also Joy. I am truly so happy right now, and I feel the spirit saying to me that this joy is for all of us. I can honestly say that I am happier today than I have been in YEARS. I am standing in awe.
I have been without internet service for a couple of days, so when I was talking to Linda and Alex about some of the praise reports, and then when I actually signed online to finally read them, I was just speechless. God is moving! Just as I posted earlier this year and as I heard the Lord speak to me again last night, as I shared with Alex; He told me Year of Jubilee.
I just read Marsha Burns’ Small straws, and guess what…here is what she wrote:
February 26, 2007: Your breakthroughs will come at first like a small leak in a big dam, but eventually will wipe out the entire dam — every hindrance that restricts the flow of your blessings. Watch for the little things that indicate breakthrough and praise Me for them, says the Lord. Your praise will widen the gap and bring forth the abundance as your faith gains momentum.
James 1:5-8 If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of God, who gives to all liberally and without reproach, and it will be given to him. But let him ask in faith, with no doubting, for he who doubts is like a wave of the sea driven and tossed by the wind. For let not that man suppose that he will receive anything from the Lord; he is a double–minded man, unstable in all his ways.
Then I read Bill Burns, and he is also right in line with what God is doing:
February 26, 2007: The Lord says that everything will be okay in spite of the harassment from the devil. The promises that I have given you will bring you into a time of the recovery of all things. What things? All things that you have lost, whether it be your faith, your desire to serve Me, your closeness to Me, your knowledge of Me, the prosperity that I have spoken of, health in your body or your strength — all things that you have lost. You are coming into a season of promise, which will bring the recovery of all things that the enemy has taken. Only believe and move forward in this season with faith and your eyes fixed wholly upon Me, for I am the Lord of Glory.
We are definitely praising right now and we cannot stop. This is the direction of worship that God wants us to be on.
