The Path (part III)

Once again, hello everyone! Let me continue to share more of the journey God has put me on. Last time I left off explaining to you all about my dream:
Over two years ago I admitted to ignoring a call that God had called me to do. I prayed to Him concerning this calling and asked Him to confirm to me that it is what He wanted me doing. That night God showed me in a dream ministering in a HUGE church… I woke up and thought, ok God, I believe You but the big church thing… hmmm that is pretty hard to swallow. However, there was one individual that I remember shaking hands with in that dream and for over the last two years I have not forgot that face. I though it was a friend of mine that I knew in the past but once I met PD face to face I KNEW it was him!  Chills went down my spine.

Again, WOW what an amazing revealing God gave me that day. After that Sunday I could not shake this heaviness that was resting upon my soul. From that day forward I could not stop thinking about Church on Fire. I knew that God had work for my wife and I and I knew it was there… but I waited for a while before I told my wife what I felt.
A month went by and we continued to attend Church on Fire every Sunday. It was and still is an AMAZING church. For the entire month God continued to reveal things from His word to me. There were some things that had happened in the past years. I felt as if I was unable to do what God wanted me to do and I struggled with this. However, God used that past time to reveal more to me now than I could ever expect.
It was another Monday, I woke up and  was preparing for work. I went to pack my lunch and God said to me, “No lunch today”. I was like… WHAT? How in the world can I do that…? I LOVE to eat! He said, “Take some oatmeal and eat it for breakfast, today I want you to read My word and I will feed you”. How was I to argue with Him…? I could not. So, I grabbed some oatmeal and continued to work.
1:00 is my lunch time and I was ready to receive what God wanted to show me. I was EXCITED, but I did not know where to read from. So, on the way out to my car I said, “God, ok I am doing as You have asked of me and You will have to tell me where to read from because I have no clue”. He told me to read Corinthians.
Once I arrived in my car I drove to a quite little place, said a prayer and opened my Bible to Corinthians. Usually I did not read the pretext before the scriptures but I felt that same heaviness coming over me and I knew God wanted me to read it. Within the pretext it referenced Acts 18:1-17. I thought ok I don’t need to read that but the heaviness become stronger… so I turned to Acts 18 and this is what God fed me with that day.
- Now the Lord spoke to Paul in the night by a vision, “Do not be afraid, but speak, and do not keep silent;
- for I am with you, and no one will attack you to hurt you; for I have many people in this city.”
Tears began to fall from my eyes after God showed me this. I knew that He knew and that I had nothing to be afraid of anymore. He knew that I was hurt and He wanted me to know that He was with me.
There is more to this story but for now I will go. Continue to watch and I will be posting “The Path (part IV” very soon.
God bless you all on the journey He has you on! 
God, thank you for your mercy and for putting me on this path You have me on. All glory goes to YOU!
