Re: I want to know God, please pray or me (to rasouc and Ev)

Dear rasouc,
I actually find your message so refreshing, so encouraging. Someone actually reaching out and hungry for God!!
How wonderful to know that before God can ever reach someone, the person must first want God in, otherwise He never forces His way in, but, Oh, when we ask....It is written that if we seek we will find, knock and it will be opened, ask and we will receive. This is exactly what you're doing. Believe this Truth.
A fast is the best way to seek for answers from the Holy Spirit. As you seek answers from the Lord, ask Him if you are in the right place of worship for you. Does He have somewhere where you will be fed more than what you've been getting. Belonging to clubs and ministries etc., is meaningless if the power behind it is not the very Power of God. Going through rituals and repetitious prayers is not talking to God as your best friend. Think of Him that way and begin talking to Him knowing He's right there, listening. In due time you will learn to discern His voice. He won't fail you.
Ask Him to forgive you if you have slacked off in your duties and affections, but then forgive yourself knowing if He forgives you, you have no right to walk around condemming yourself.
During your fasting and prayers, bring up to Him every hurt and disappointment in your life, forgive in His name all who hurt you and release them from your life. Ask Him to forgive you for holding the wrong attitudes towards others, and then tell any spirits of darkness who entered as a result of the pain that you have been forgiven and they have no legal grounds. Tell Guilt, Anger, Rejection, Self-rejection, Depresssion,Fear and Death to leave you completely, in the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth!
I prayed to the Lord before starting to write to you so that it would not be my wisdom that would reach you, but His through me. I asked the Holy Spirit to have me write exactly what He wantede to say to you, so that it would benefit your soul, help you to grow and give you peace. I Bless you and your family from the top of your heads, to the tips of your toes, that the Kingdom of God would come to you, in the name of Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.

To Ev: My dear sister, your answer to rasouc was beatiful, as always. I love and appreciate you so much. Let us hear from you more often on these forums. I truly praise God for a post as this one, may He keep them coming in. This is what it's all about, isn't it? XOXOXO celebrate4joy@yahoo.com Tweet
