Don't Leave Atlanta During Rush Hour On A Week Day Unless There Is A Purpose.

I usually leave Atlanta a few hours earlier when heading back from a visit. Today was the exception though. Oh my way the traffic not so good, people heading back to school and just plain ole Atlanta traffic. I left at this time because God had an appointment already set up for me today on my journey. Yep, today. I had an awesome day yesterday. Went to church Holy Spirit was very present there and afterward I did an errand for my mother. It was a simple errand I just had to return an item to the store and search for a few items she wanted me to get as the exchange. Simple right? Well I go to the first store in search and I had on a pair of jeans with all the gemstones (not real gemstones that is they are decorative gemstones) that are faceted to the front of the jeans. Well, out of nowhere I fall face down on the walkway. I was stunned at first then a very  nice young man came over to help me get up. I did and thanked him. I asked him if he was a Christian and he responded yes and I spoke a blessing over him for extending his hand in assistance to me. I thought nothing of it and went to another store where I knew they had at least one of the items my mother wanted me to get for her.
I get home and change and that is when I realized both of my knees were bleeding. Let me tell you it is not a comfortable fall when you fall and all those gemstones push into you skin. I asked my mother and son if they thought I needed stitches on the one knee and they both said no. I was relieved of that. So I get some Neosporin from my mom and I carry band aids with me when I travel and good thing I did I used them on this journey.
I was a little sore this morning and I used the anointing oil I received the other day and prayed. I kept getting this tug at my heart to go back to the store and purchase another item and ask for prayer at the store I visited the other day. I go there and share that I fell the previous day and could they pray for me in the prayer room. I purchased the item and we shared a bit of our experiences since I last stopped in the store the other day. This is the store where people gather to get vials of anointing oil filled from the bible that is bringing forth anointing oil. So we finish praying and prior to the praying she anointed her hands with the anointing oil and then we prayed. I felt led after her prayer to then pray as Holy Spirit led me to pray. So while we are praying a person comes into the prayer room and sits down. My eyes are shut during prayer and I come to find out it is the person that's bible is bringing forth the anointing oil. Is that not God or what? Perfect timing I say, correction, perfect Holy Spirit timing that is.
There is a bit of humor in this day also. Before I left I told my mother I think I am too old now for her to kiss my boo boos (my bandaged knees) to make them all better we both chuckled. A sense of humor in the midst of adversity is good. As I am driving I keep asking Holy Spirit what did I do wrong, did something come upon me (spirit wise that is) and He assured me it all came forth because I had another one of those powerful dreams (I started to recently experience) early Sunday morning. I do not want to go into a detailed explanation at his time but these type of dreams are new to me and I am getting use to them and how to operate in this. So I do what my heart tells me to do I worship, that is what I do. This is the song list heading to the store. I started out with "What A Wonderful World" by James W. Goll. Played that several times then I let it go into the other songs on the CD. I played "You Are So Beautiful" several times and the GLORY shout came forth at the portion of "such joy and happiness you bring such joy and happiness you bring like a dream." There is just something about this song that stirs within me. I then sometime start doing a bit of warfare right there in the car. I reminded satan of the boundaries and then told him he had to bow at the name of Jesus. I repeated that several times. I then go into simply speaking the name Jesus over and over again and tears begin to flow and my heart goes into thankful mode. I am so touched when I think of what He did for me so I will be with Him for all eternity. Not just a day, an hour but all eternity. Yes warfare led to worship and His presence. Hey when warfare is needed you do not care who may see you speaking forth this ministry. Now, of course my windows were not rolled down. I get to the song "Stick Together" and that is the song playing as I pull into the parking spot by the store. I also remember thinking to myself what a beautiful tribute to his wife when singing "Unforgettable." Such a beautiful and tender song paying tribute to his wife and the story that was created in their marriage. That two people care that much for each other that those words are expressed through a song, very endearing words. Beautiful, simply beautiful.
After store ministry I get back in the car and next phase of worship begins. This time Jeannie Tenney, "Born To Be A Worshiper" and of course GLORY comes out of me. After a few times I then go to "One Night With The King." There were words that just touched my heart and tears flow again (now let me clarify this is not gushing type of tears they are tears that gently well up in my eyes and roll down my face.) That is how it works for me with worship and the presence of God. The verse that hit the heart string was this..."Until I saw His face, His love captured me." What an awesome day what do you think? Then no song seemed to stir me, I played several different songs from different CD's so the last portion of my journey I prayed in tongues. When that GLORY shout comes forth out of me it is like a lion's roar it just comes out and sometimes it amazes me how long that simple yet powerful word draws out of me.
During prayer in the prayer room the tears flowed again, How can they not when two or more are gathered in His name. Here is a picture of what I purchased today, an example of the creative art pieces at this store. This is similar to the one I blessed my mother with, "When We All Get To Heaven What A Day Of Rejoicing That Will Be."

The gift along with a few gemstones that fell off. I will find a way to secure them back onto the jeans with Holy Spirit's guidance that is.
