In a Women’s meeting in 1983, I went up for prayer and to see if God had “anything for me”. The woman of God who was praying for people spoke over my life. She said these words: “You will write books. You can go to the bank on it. Rivers of living water will flow from your belly…”
I went home to my three small children and told my hubby about it. I was 26 years old. I told no one else and we literally forgot all about that encounter as we raised children and grew in the Lord.
In 2006 I began writing for fun and didn’t see the hand of God on what I was doing. But I kept writing and God began to speak. I joined social media and someone wanted me to friend them. I just wanted to have the social page as mine to find old friends and distant family. Finally I said to Him, “Okay God I give this (social media page) to You. You do whatever you want with it.”
He did just what I asked Him to do. Every day I ask Him what His people need to hear and He speaks. As long as He leads I will write. I am merely the typist to the Lord.
Oh beloved, God will bless your life to with every bit you give Him. It’s quite simple. Ask Him to use you in whatever area you are in, give Him your sphere of influence and make Him your main passion. He will write through you, He will compose through you, He will give you songs in the night for hurting hearts. He will take ordinary and make it extraordinary. He will take the natural and put His supernatural mark on it. Praying for you, that you will know what a great and awesome God we serve and that you will see His hand everywhere you go. It’s a wonderful life to live in the Light of His Magnificent Word!
Psalm 89:15 How blessed are the people who know the joyful sound! O LORD, they walk in the light of Your countenance.
