I can't believe I'm up this late again tonight. I need sleep. My
doctor diagnosed me with insomnia, and I just feel like I can't turn
off the "switch" sometimes. My brain refuses to stop.
I've been reading a lot lately about spiritual warfare/ demon
possession/ intercessory prayer/ deliverance ministries. How to
identify it; how to deal with it. I know those are different subjects,
but they all tie together in my thought process. I'm weird, I know!
Many people have asked me if I subscribe to the belief that people can
become possessed by demons. To that, my answer is yes - the Bible has
examples of such occurrences. However, the next few questions are
usually: do you believe that true Christians" can become possessed? Do
we, the Christians of today, have enough faith to cast out the demons
that manifest themselves? Is it our duty to exercise our authority
through Christ over these demons? I don't really have all the answers
and I continue to seek His face during this time of research and
learning. My great quest for knowledge.
I've really been convicted lately of not always praying/petitioning my
Daddy. I pray, but not for those things I know He has commanded me to
pray over. Disobedience can kick your butt. Please excuse the strong
language there, if it offends you. I have once again lain down claim
to my life and my prayers. I seek only to please and obey Him. I will
intercede when instructed. I
will obey.
Deliverance ministries - at least the ones I read about - seem kind of
fake to me. My spirit did not bear witness with what I found. Odd.
I'm looking for a church home. I have to face it - I'm here now, house
is bought 0 there is no going back. heh. Besides, theGathering (the
building, I mean) no longer exists. Time to move on! :) Chandler is
my home again and I need to get used to it! I love this area. I
wouldn't have agreed to buy the house if I didn't. I love me some
trees!!!!!
I'm excited for the next
Burn
near me. It will be my first in this area. I'm nervous about it a
little, but it is an excited anxiety. In other words, it is a good
feeling! The Burn has etched itself upon my heart. Oh, how I love to
see my King worshiped and adored!
I keep praying for my family. I know that they believe in God - most
of them. There is just so much more than believing in His existence.
I have so much fun with this, and I want that for them! I don't know
if they are saved - thankfully I do not have God's job and do not have
to make that call. :)
There's more in me, but it isn't time for it to come out yet.
I love each of you. Truly.
I love You, Abba. Thank You.
For everything.
Here I am - LORD -
use me! Send
me!
Your loving, somewhat weird and forever grateful daughter,
Sara
