I wish I had had the time to read Glenn Jackson’s message from yesterday before now, because its timeliness just blows my mind! God is always so faithful to give us the perfect message right when we need it and to confirm what He’s trying to teach us at any given moment in our lives. And since several of our new members are truly struggling with giving up their own efforts and attempts to shame, control, manage, and manipulate their spouses into doing what they want and believe they should do instead of honestly trusting God enough to give their spouses and marriages to Him, being fully persuaded that He CAN AND WILL restore them; yesterday’s message from Glenn is indeed timely and powerful. And even more remarkable is that I was seeking the Lord’s guidance yesterday about how to best convey the importance for all of our members to make a real effort to read and seriously study the Seeds Of Faith posts I try to publish every day, because they are the main teaching tool of this ministry, and what I’ve felt led by the Holy Spirit to share each day. And they’re often written with very specific situations involving FAM members in mind. So when I just read Glenn’s message about ”Partakers” of the Anointing from yesterday, I couldn’t believe how applicable it was and that it’s dated the very day I felt such a great need to express the same message based on circumstances in the lives of several FAM Fellowship members! So as I so often have to do, I’m praising the Lord for His awesome and mind blowing faithfulness to answer us when we call on Him and seek Him! And I encourage everyone to read the above message and seriously study it and ask the Lord to reveal what He wants you to take from it and how it applies to your lives and current situations. God’s power is ALWAYS there for us to access, but we won’t likely be able to do that without taking full advantage of everything He provides to help us in our time of need. And I have no doubt that God brought every one of us here for a purpose, and that purpose is for the restoration of our marriages and families and for HIS glory. But as James 4:3 warns, we had better be sure we’re here for the Lord’s glory and not for our own gain and purpose, because it says When you ask, you do not receive, because you ask with wrong motives, that you may spend what you get on your pleasures. But Matthew 6:33 also promises; But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well. So let’s avoid letting the devil convince us that we are victims of his wickedness and not the victors the Word promises we are in Jesus Christ, and we will then surely be exceedingly blessed and encouraged!
