My children are grown and I do enjoy the freedom to just pick up and go to ministry events or shopping or things like that. Not tied down but have freedom to even move if I wanted to because there is nothing holding me back. I guess I see it as no incentive to stay other than my present job that is. I am in a position in which I truly do get to bless people on a daily basis. My job leaves me at the end of the day with satisfaction knowing I indirectly helped people.
After we hung up on the phone I was off to walking. I arrive at the park and just as I pull into a parking spot the fire department pulls up in their truck. Two teenagers called for them and then waited to show them where to go on the trail. I happened to start my walking as they were guiding them to the area where a man must have fallen off their bike and they were describing that he had gashes and was bleeding. See, in my daily life this is what I do when I see or hear sirens of fire trucks, police cars and ambulances. Even if they are not in an emergency capacity I pray for them. Protection, wisdom, the blood of Jesus protection, anointing, grace, household salvation and other words if I hear them from Holy Spirit. So, I am walking behind the fire people and I prayed for them like I do on a regular basis in this situation. They are talking with the teenagers as they are walking and one said they were going to go back and call for ambulance assistance. I could hear the sirens in the distance so I began to pray for them also along with the man that was injured. I did not approach the area yet where the man was at. I do not know why I thought the ambulance was going to drive the path, they did not. I walked across the bridge and at the end of the bridge is where the man was. Yes, I did see a bloodied up face and the fire department people were attending to him. He was sitting up. I continued to walk the distance I was walking that day. It was in the moment that I turned around to walk back and Holy Spirit beckoned me to stop and release anointing inside of me to that man, healing anointing that was. I did like He shows me how to do and I kept on walking. On the trail as I was heading back I saw 2 EMT people pushing the gurney to the area. I get to my car and I want to make sure the person was ok. I started my car to get the air conditioning going and I had on "repeat" mode the song by Lauren Daigle, "Your Wings."
I had in my car a book given to me when I volunteered to feed people a few weeks ago by Joan Hunter. It sat in my car for the right moment in time to read it. I flipped through the pages until I got to "section four: The Expression of God." That caught my attention and I began to read the explanation of each of the five-fold ministry. I continued on reading and I was able to see the fire people along with the injured man on the gurney coming to the ambulance. He was sitting up but it appeared like he had some sort of cloth maybe that was absorbing the blood? I was about to leave and I tried to pull out a couple of times but it looked like maybe I was wedged between the fire truck and the ambulance. So, I kept reading and then I asked the fire people if they thought I could get out. They said I had plenty of room to. Oh, this is important timing to share with you. I read about the anointing and what it is, along with speaking in tongues. You may be thinking what does this have to do with anything? When I pulled out guess who I was driving behind down the road until a certain point? The ambulance and I was able to see the man still sitting in an upward position. It must not have been in "emergency" mode because the sirens were not on and they were driving at a normal speed. I kicked into singing in tongues in my car to the tune of the song playing in my car.
See, it truly is God's timing where He strategically places you in regard to praying for others. Let me back this up hours prior to this taking place if I may. I made meatballs the other night with Italian sauce they were baked in. I felt Holy Spirit nudge to give what I had left to an elderly neighbor of mine. I even made some pasta to go with it. I woke up today and I did place them both in a container and left it at their door. I had a conversation with Holy Spirit about this and I reminded Him that could have been my dinner or lunch today. Never the less I obeyed. So, it is after I am done with work and I happened to notice the bag with the food is still on their door handle. I think to myself it cannot be good anymore since it was there for hours now. I mentioned to Holy Spirit about wasting that food. Do you know what His response to me was? It is not about the food being wasted or not, it is about following His instruction and obedience to His promptings. I do believe it was me following His direction earlier in the day that had me tuned in to going to walk when I did because there was a need for another that needed prayer and healing anointing released.
Lesson learned, do not question Holy Spirit direction. Let's pull up that song and I encourage you to sing in tongues to the rhythm of the song ok.
