We had about a week and a half left of the house sit at this point. We had purchased a home that we couldn't move into for another month. We still did not know where we would go once we finished the house sit. My husband had a co-worker whose family member owned a hotel. He got us a great deal to stay at the hotel for the 3 weeks we needed till we could move into our new home. (His idea ordained by God). God did all this for us. It makes me cry to think of.  Our God is so good.

I wish I could say that I floated through all of this gloriously. My heart was learning to trust God. My body seemed to break down. The enemy took advantage of this, and brought UTI's (Urinary Tract Infections) on with a vengeance. I had had UTI's in the past, but not often in the previous 10 years, as I had learned how to keep them away.

I got hit with a horrible UTI when we were at the house sit - just after we started house sitting. I remember pacing and praying in the Spirit for about 8 hours straight, as I could not sit. I heard the Holy Spirit say through me: "it's an attack, it's an attack." At this point,  I didn't know what I should do besides rebuke the devil, and tell him to get behind me. I ended up going to a medical clinic, but what was prescribed for me did not help. I discovered D-Mannose. I changed my diet. I drank cranberry juice. I researched and researched. There's a desperation that comes with that kind of pain. It reminded me of intense labour, - the pain just coming from a different place, but not letting up. The discomfort was agonizing. I had to really keep my mind in check, as it really felt like I could lose my mind - it was that bad. I remember talking to my sister on the phone, and she would pray for me. She had also experienced crippling UTI's, so she understood. I started experiencing symptoms that occurred every couple days, and then just daily, even with all the diet alterations, D-mannose, etc. I was desperate.

During this time I had been praying, but was still severely struggling. My husband and son prayed repeatedly for me. Others prayed for me. I would have a bit of relief, and then bam it would happen -  again and again.

I came across an old Word of Faith preacher's messages that had been put online. I started listening. I was like a parched person that had just walked across a desert without water that found a well. I drank and drank and drank of the Word of God that I heard through this preacher.  I learned about how God sent His Word and healed us. I took paper, and started writing healing noscriptures. Those noscriptures became my bread and water. I spoke them and spoke them until they became part of who I was. I learned valuable things like: when you receive healing, if a symptom comes, it's the enemy trying to see if you'll take the sickness back. It's not an indication that you've "lost" your healing. I gained knowledge that I needed to fight with. I gained arsenal. I finally thew out all the natural things I had been relying on. I decided if Jesus has healed me, as His Word says He has, (1 Peter 2:24) then that's where I'm putting my trust.

I started using the noscriptures as I would use medicine. I would confess the noscriptures much, and whenever I felt any symptom, I would "double up" the dose of the Word of God - what the Bible says about my healed body.

The devil fought hard. I should mention we live in a  rural area, so there's no running to the store. There was no plan B. There was only: I believe You have healed me Jesus, and that is what I'm standing on. I had thrown out everything medicinal and natural that I had been relying on.

A moment of truth came. The only way I know how to describe it, is that I got slammed with an incredibly debilitating UTI. I remember standing in the kitchen and screaming because the pain was so bad. I started yelling something along the lines of "Lord, you're all I have. I believe You are my healer. I trust in You. I need You. Help me please. By His stripes I AM HEALED." My husband was standing by me praying. I don't think he knew what to do either.

We were just hanging on to Jesus with everything we had.

All of a sudden the pain/the infection just left. - The symptoms lessened severely, and over about the next hour they completely disappeared.

I don't know how exactly to describe it. It's like putting all your eggs/everything you have in God's basket and discovering that He is exactly who He says He is. His Word is exactly true. His Word works.

Our God is an amazing God, and if we'll trust Him, we will see that He is exactly who the Bible says He is.

I've since come to learn that I need to defend the ground I've taken by continuing to feed on and speak God's truths, but that can be shared another time.

My friends, if you will dare to trust Him, you will see that He can never fail you. To Jesus be all the glory.

Can we just tell Him: I am the one that loves You and trusts You Lord Jesus. Thank You Holy Spirit for leading us into ALL truth. You are wonderful Lord.❤️ Amen.

A dear sweet prayer warrior sent me these three powerful inspiring videos prompted by God. They are too good not to share. Believe these mountains in your life can be moved!

Had to share Jane's praise and testimony today. Thank you Jane for sharing!

Praise report: we need to sell our boat, it's October, kinda late for boating. the boat stored in a high elevation area soon to be snowed it. My son brought the boat to my house, another small town maybe we will get snow this year. My husband had a bad back and cannot help too much, I have to be the director. I look at the boat and realize I have no clue what I'm doing. I need to install a new battery, drain the gas, put in new gas, dump the leaves from a garbage can, fill wirh water and make sure the boat starts. I'm overwhelmed.
Then I sprain my foot, it's in pain 4 to 6 weeks of light duty. I cannot get on a ladder and work on the boat. I prayed from day 1 and kept seeing a SOLD sign across my forehead.
OK faith without works is dead . I decide I need to work at selling it. I'm not a salesman nor a photographer. I posted an ad in a sportsman's classified forum online, but no picture. A few days later. My son said u cannot sell anything without a picture, Ha. OK I took a picture, not a good one but it's a picture and posted it. I still kept seeing the word SOLD on my forehead, but I don't know if the boat will start.
1 week later a man called to look at the boat. He bought it!!!! We did no maintence, no new gas, no new battery. The man didn't care, he wanted the boat. Wow, this took alot of stress off of me.
Now we have the money for a much needed new roof on our house. 🙏❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

A dear sweet sister in Christ wrote this and shared it on IG. So eloquently stated. Thought I would share. Pause to read.

Thank you @rawkmomjenn👇🏼

Great devotional today:

“The war has been won by way of the death and resurrection of Jesus, but there is still a battle waging war on our life, soul, and heart.
Yesterday, we read Psalm 23 in its entirety and reflected on the different names of God. It is worth noticing, the familiar words of Christ on the cross were also written by David in Psalm 22:1, “My God, My God, why have you forsaken Me.” 
As a follower of Jesus, at some point or another, we all will struggle with the thought, God is not listening to my prayers. He has left me alone. He cannot be trusted, and it is up to me to be in control of my happiness. These thoughts are all lies against who Jesus is in order to weaken our faith in Him and steal our peace. 
If you are a follower of Jesus and have given your life to Him, you can be assured that the only person God has forsaken was Jesus. During His most extravagant expression of love, Jesus was abandoned on the cross by His Father so that we will never be abandoned. With His last breath, Jesus declared, “It is finished.” (John 19:30) All of Heaven mourned. 
Meanwhile, for three days Hell rejoiced. We all know what happened next. Jesus walked out of that same grave in Glory and in victory. What darkness meant to destroy, Jesus died to redeem. God defeated the powers of evil. As followers of Jesus, we can claim that same victory. 
Jesus didn’t just say He loved us; He proved His love in ways words could never express by laying down His life for us. He paid off our sinful debt with His perfect life. Because of Jesus, we will never be forsaken but are always loved and worthy to call a Holy God our Father. Our place with God has been forever sealed with triumph! 
The war was won long ago, but we are still in a battle. If we don’t know who we are fighting, we cannot win the battle. Jesus called Satan a liar, thief, and deceiver; his goal is to destroy who you are and your relationship with God. Satan is opportunistic, and he will attack when we least expect it. That being said, I’m confident that God, our defender, will fight to protect our hearts, strengthen our faith, and win this waging battle around us. 
When COVID-19 invaded our land, the threat of death surrounded us every day. Our dreams and plans appeared to be thrown down a dark pit never to be seen again. We must remember, there is no pit so deep that God’s love cannot reach to pull us out. Yes, my friend, there is no war or invisible enemy that Jesus has not already fought and won. So, let’s hold on to Him and let Him fight our battles!”

“I am the good shepherd. I know my own and my own know me, just as the Father knows me and I know the Father; and I lay down my life for the sheep.”
John 10:14-15 ESV

Testimony Tuesday

Well here are a couple of video testimonies about prayer requests that may seem to be frivolous for some. One might even think that we shouldn’t bother God with such things. But God is a god of details. He loves it when we come to him with our concerns no matter how silly or frivolous we may think they are.
He wants to know what troubles us and takes delight when we come before Him and ask.

If He knows the very numbers of the hairs on our heads, He must care about every detail in our daily lives.

There have been times when I would pray for God to help me look for something I’ve lost. Like the time I lost my reading glasses. I had no idea what I did with them. After searching all over the house I finally prayed, “Lord, I need my glasses, please help me find them. Thank you.” Right after that simple prayer request, a thought came to my mind….”Check the patio umbrella.” That’s right! I remember I was winterizing the patio, and I took down the giant patio umbrella and cinched it up with it’s straps and slipped it into it’s case and positioned in the corner inside my garage.

I went back to check and untied the straps and there inside the umbrella case were my glasses…”Thank you Lord.” I guess they got snagged off the collar of my sweatshirt and fell into the case. Had I not asked God to help me I most likely wouldn’t have found them until the following Summer.

So, keep praying for those silly things, and you’ll find more than just an answer to your prayer. Your faith will be increased as you trust Him with those little things.

““Ask, and it will be given to you; seek, and you will find; knock, and it will be opened to you. For everyone who asks receives, and the one who seeks finds, and to the one who knocks it will be opened. Or which one of you, if his son asks him for bread, will give him a stone? Or if he asks for a fish, will give him a serpent? If you then, who are evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your Father who is in heaven give good things to those who ask him!”
Matthew 7:7-11

I love this man's intentional prayer for his grass to grow!

Just had to share this sweet video of this cat watching the leaves fall.🍁🍂
