It continues… the path God has put me on. I will follow Him till my time here is over. Let us resume where I left off at on The Path (part III).
To recap, I ended with sharing scriptures with everyone that God gave me and revealed that He understood I was hurting and to not worry about it. He was sending me to this place to grow and work for Him.
Act 18: 9-10
- 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.”
After God revealed this to me it gave me such a HUGE relief from everything. My family and I were getting ready to head out on vacation in a few days and I knew that I really had to dive into God’s word. Sure it was vacation but reading God’s word should not be work to us. It is a blessing.
Our vacation was AWESOME and my family and I had a BLAST. God showed me so much throughout that time and I felt myself becoming closer to Him each day I read. Then God gave me another dream while away in Florida. Let me share it with you:
Dreaming in FL
During one night God showed me some things at work that was going on. I did not understand at first why He was showing me these things but I knew He would reveal that to me when it was time.
At work I am a web developer and web designer. I use this tool called LogMein to access some of the PCs at work from home. During this dream God showed me that they were removing this from the PCs at work while I was away. I thought… ok? Why? Also in the same dream there was an individual named Steve who comes in about once or twice a year to check on some of our server stuff, which I work with too. I was a little worried about this situation because I did not clearly understand why God showed me this stuff in my dream…
Once I returned home
We returned from our vacation and the very next day I was to work from home. I needed to login to access one of the PCs… guess what… no connection. I called in and found out that the software had been removed. Hmmm God is good.
The Sunday before returning back to work God put it on my heart to read about Jonah. I once again did not understand why but I could not sleep till I did. Monday I returned to work and was approached about a project that I had been working on for over 10 months. It was about complete and they wanted to go back to when we started and rethink all the material and reasoning behind the project. I was upset at first but God calmed me and explained that I needed to let my boss know that I might not be here long enough to redo this whole project again. What I thought… I can’t do that God! I have a family and I never let on anything about not being some where anymore until I find something else. Then God opened my eyes… the dream I gave you on vacation was to show you that I have already been ahead of you. The Path I want you to follow… I have already been down it and preparing the way. Just obey Me.
This was a very nervous situation because I knew I had to do what He was asking but I had not even spoke to my wife about this calling God was giving me. I paced the hallway continually that day and I called my wife. I explained to what was going on and what God was telling me. I asked her to pray and that we needed to talk that night. So when we got off the phone we both prayed and both agreed that I had to obey Him.
While walking back down the hallway I said to God, “Ok I am going to obey You God, I am scared but You said that You are preparing the way.” I went back into the office and was typing a letter out for my boss to explain the situation and while I was typing she came out and said she was leaving… I thought, ok I will hold off on this till tomorrow… NO God told me… I hit print and ran down the hall to give it to her so she knew and we could talk the next day. I then thought, ok half the dream came true but I have no idea why I saw that guy Steve…? I handed the letter to her and she looked at me and said, “Ok I will read this and we can talk about it more tomorrow. Oh yeah by the way… Steve will be here to look over the server.” WOW then God said, “See just obey I have been there”.
This BLEW my mind again! God is AWESOME and knows all!
I continued that night back home and spoke to my wife about all the feelings I had been having since we began attending Church on Fire and we prayed together about the path God was preparing us for. I felt that I needed to call our pastor PD to inform him of what God was doing in my life. I explained to him about my dream, the work situation, and more. He then said, “Are you telling me that you are going to quit your job and move to Harrison, OH?” I explained to him that I know it sounds strange but I have this feeling that I won’t have to say I quit… I asked him to remember us in his prayers, thanked him for talking to me and he asked to keep him posted.
This Path continues today and I have more to share with you all soon. Please keep posted for The Path (part V) which I will post soon.
Remember to obey Him. He is always preparing the way for us, even when we don’t realize it at the time.
