As many of you know, I have been growing and growing, seeking God's face, his will and to be baptised in the holy spirit. God has blessed me with the ability to communicate and has given me the gift of faith. A complete 180 from earlier this year. So, anyway I was praying the other day and God gave me the scripture Isaiah 61 cause' I have been praying to know his will for my life, what my job is in the body of Christ.
Anyhow, things seem to be getting a little weird. As I was preparing my plan of witnessing to people, and praying just going through what I would say, guideline to talk to them about, the phone just kept on ringing. Now, I have heard people say before that when they are in prayer sometimes the enemy sends people to call or interrupt them.
As I continued to pray, I got at least five calls and I didn't stop. In between getting these five calls, there were very strong winds hitting my house. I didn't stop but pressed on. Now, sometimes it is just the weather but I believe that this was not just the weather. I believe as I get closer and closer to God, the enemy is trying to stop me from going out and bringing souls into the kingdom of God. But God has told me that I am safe and he is protecting me but now knowing the enemy wants to stop me, this only makes me stronger.
Out of the calls, about two of the calls did not leave a message. They just hung up. Sometimes, when looking at the caller ID it has "No Caller" on the phone. Then, the weirdest thing of all, as I am praying, an automated prayer from payless calls. Not a real person, but an automated message. Payless has never, ever called me before let alone an automated message.
Then, I was searching on another Christian forum about evangelism and the site would not come up. I felt as if the enemy was stopping the connection or doing something so it wouldn't come up. Trying to do anything to stop me. So, I even tried on this forum and it wouldn't come up. Then on the other Christian forum and the first time I tried the search came up and I got to like page 4. But then I would try to go beyong page 4 and the page wouldn't come up. I tried like 8 times or so. I even closed out of the site and brung it back up. So, I am feeling like, "Okay, this doesn't seem right. Let me pray." So, I pray and lay my head down. I say, "God please let this page come up....." and other stuff. My prayer lasted about 10 seconds. I get back up and the site is up. Don't underestimate the power of prayer.
So, I spoke the word of God. I said, "No weapon formed against me shall prosper and I condemn every tongue that rises up against me."
Then I remembered the scripture in Psalms 91:7.
7 A thousand may fall at your side,
ten thousand at your right hand,
but it will not come near you.
This whole thread is to say, when you pray go into a quiet place so that no one will interrupt you. Let your family know that you do not wish to be disturbed during this time (unless of an emergency) and don't let anything interrupt you or stop you from praying. Keep pressing on and know that your prayers are may not only be heard by God but the enemy. Now, I'm not saying that everytime something happens that it is the enemy but the holy spirit will let you know.
