A Promise Confirmed and Hope Renewed
Last night I had a supernatural experience that I believe marks a turning point in my life. Here is the story: my mom, my sister and I went to hear the Urshan College choral sing (which was 🔥🔥🔥), and there was a great spirit of worship there. As I was praying, I reminded the Lord of some things that had been spoken over my life many years ago, but that there were multiple things spoken and I didn't know what to believe. I continued to pray and worship and then one of the guys from the Urshan team (at least I believe it was one of them, my eyes were closed most of this time) began to pray for me. He told me that God had given him a word for me, that word being that I have been given the spiritual gift of healing. This was one of those things that had been spoken over my life so many years ago that I was unsure about, for I have gone through many things and the idea of this gift had gone to the wayside. But to have a complete stranger come up to me and give me this word of confirmation changes everything!
This semester that I just finished (insert shouting here 💃) was one of the most difficult seasons of my life, academically, spiritually, and emotionally. I have been struggling in my walk with God, my classes have pushed me to my very limit, and my emotions have been all over the place. But by the grace of God...👋 Anyway, I have been walking through this storm and at times have felt so far from God. I have questioned my faith, I have sobbed and cried out to God asking for direction, for wisdom, for help! but to what seemed to be to no avail. Last night when that young man allowed himself to be used of God, I received a word that not only confirms a promise that I received from God many years ago, but that also reminds me that God has not forgotten me. He is still at my side, guiding me through every situation. He still has a plan for me, and I can trust in His timing, even if it does not align with my own desires.
My God is so good to me. I have failed him countless times during this past semester alone, and yet He still loves me and offers me so much. I don't know what the future holds, I don't know how God plans on using this gift of healing through me, but I do know that He is in control and I don't have to fret over anything because He holds my tomorrow.
