Remember the Almond Joy/Mounds idea I wrote about the other day? Buy a bag of each type of candy then as Holy Spirit gives you divine insight you ask others if you could pray for them if you guess the right candy bar they like. That opens the door for street, office or any other plethora of opportunities to reach out to others with prayer.
You have nothing to lose except the money you paid for the 2 bags of candy. So, it was Saturday night sitting in the parking lot @ World Outreach Church. You can stay after the preaching to enjoy the worship concert. I was in my spot at the end of a parking row and people were leaving and heading to their cars and would say hello, exchange smiles as they walked past. For some reason there was this couple that Holy Spirit highlighted to me. They said hello as they approached me, and I noticed a quilt that was folded that the husband was carrying. I asked did someone make that quilt. He quickly responded that his aunt did, and I saw this Holy Spirit glow on him as he spoke. You know that look when someone has been in the presence of Jesus, it was that look/glow I saw. I felt inspired to share my God idea about using candy, specifically Almond Joy & Mounds bars. I then explained the concept Holy Spirit showed me and he responded that he was (or was it they) were going to try that.
In the moment I felt a little bad that here I am sharing that God idea and I didn't do it myself. So, on Sundy after church I happened to be at 2 different Walmart's and standing in line, I noticed a candy display and I checked to see if there was a bag of candy with just the 2 different candies in the bag but there were not. They were mixed with other candy bar flavors too. Things economically are a bit tight so spending $ for 2 different bags of candy would have been a stretch for me. I then noticed a smaller sized bag of Almond Joy at the checkout area. I got out of line to see if they had the same size for Mounds, but they did not. I even checked down another aisle to see if the store had those snack size packaged like 1.00 or something like that to get 1 of each that way to try out this evangelism concept. None there either.
I tried to attempt taking on this challenge, but the doors just were not opened for me to do so. See, when you stay in your lane where Holy Spirit uses you just stick with that. My lane right now is baking and giving it away to others. Did you ever think an anointing could be on something as simple as baking? If I didn't experience it, I would say that can't be. The lesson learned in this God idea is this ... Yes, Holy Spirit can give you concepts and ideas but trust and know when to share them with others and when to participate in them by yourself. Stay in the lane or lanes He wants you to flow in.
I also received another highlight this week. I began to clear out or break away from female ministers in which I may have received from at 1 time but now I am not so much agreeing on some of their concepts now. I shared about that the other day. Since then, there was another female minister I went to see in AL and for some reason she picked me out of the people in attendance to speak a prophetic word to me. I received the word, but something now is being highlighted to me. There was an Asian woman also there in that service and either this woman prayed against this word brought forth and/or did not like the idea that the word came forth for me. A few days ago, I came across the video of the word brought forth. I am now seeing that just maybe it was a minister reading the desire of my heart and not maybe a true word from the throne room of God. I have to find the video clip and delete it because there may have been another reason not to receive the word. When this woman shared, she seemed to be a bit negative when speaking about men or was it a case that this minister was rebuffed by a male minister at one time and didn't really heal of the rejection or hurt that came forth from that male minister.
You know there are men out there, and yes godly men that at one time maybe thought they were to join together with another female but for some reason they pushed themselves away and put up a huge iron gate around them and their heart and spurned the woman that could have been for them. Some people like to wallow in receiving pity also. They find more gratification in receiving pity as the victim mindset then in being set free to be with another that would create a beautiful relationship. Either way I may be wrong in this discerning of this, but this female really did not have kindly words to share when it came to male/female relationships. I think to myself that men are a gift from God in your life and you should receive him into your life when God sends him to you. So how could I totally receive a word brought forth from a person that just may not have the same mindset as myself. It is a done deal; the video clip will be deleted after I share this blog.
So, you know what I will be doing today right. Deleting the prophetic word video clip and probably baking too. What will you be doing today? I keep stirring this around inside of me to bake the oatmeal cookies and use equal parts of spiced pumpkin and cinnamon baking chips, that sounds like a winning Harvest combination recipe to me.
