Pastor John,
I have been listening to an Old Testament* cd today in which you were telling about God giving you the message: “It tickles the devil for God’s people to blame their troubles on him.” You described the reaction that some folks had to the message, and what it was you were really saying about your mother, which is, “She is a child of God. God had not handed her over to the devil when she got sick. He was the one who decided if she lived or died!” You said that you were so full of the holy Ghost delivering that message, that you didn’t even feel people’s hatred of that message as you told what God had shown you.
Whew! That is so good!
Jerry always says that is the answer to everything – stay full of the holy ghost! We won’t even feel anything wrong in that condition! I love it!
Whew, and the second cd is even better!
The only reason we can take in what Jesus is giving you about the book of Job right now is because you took the message in first! Because Jesus could give your heart the message that God did all of it to Job, we can now follow you right into that truth, and everything else. We are able to hear more from Jesus!
Wow! I love it PJ. I love that you had a heart to take in that message, and I love that we do too. Look what it has led to!
Ha! I was gonna include Isaiah 28:10 from our translation, but it says, “For da-da will be upon da-da, da-da upon da-da, blah-blah upon blah-blah, blah-blah upon blah-blah, here a little, there a little.”
I’m not sure I should include that without some additional context 🙂
Jesus is always adding to us and giving us what we need to hear from him.
