Testimony Time
Hi everybody!Most of you know that we just moved to Redding, CA last April 12th to be a part of Bethel Church. Since then, we have just continually seen God's favor in our lives.
I know we have experienced God's favor upon favor. But it keeps getting better!!
Faith, favor and adventure -- are three words I would describe our married life and our call.
Recently, Matt has just been going after more. One of his testimonies is that one day last week a guy came to our apartment to fix our garage. The Holy Spirit told Matt to pray for him. Now this guy was tough-looking and was joking and cussing. So Matt told God that if his name is Mark then he would pray for him.
Matt then introduced himself and said, "Hi my name is Matt."
The guy then replied, "Hi my name is Mark!"
So to make the long story short, Matt ended up praying for the guy whose Mom is sick and has stomach cancer.
As for me, It was last sunday during morning service here in Bethel when I recieved a word for a woman sitting in front of me. I heard the name "Anne" and the phrase "It's your time."
I went to her and asked her, "Does the name Anne mean anything to you?"
She smiled and said, "Yes! I have four sons and no daughters. Yesterday I was thinking about the name Anne and what a lovely name that would be for a daughter or granddaughter."
So I told myself, "Ok God I'm in the right track! Thanks!"
Then I told her, "God wants you to know that it's your time."
By this time she started crying and told me that she got a prophecy years ago that she would stand before kings and gorvernments but have felt like she was like Joseph spending time in the pit or prison for years now. She had just recently asked God for strength and direction!
She thanked me for being faithful in releasing the word to her and told me that when I mentioned the name Anne it was like a kiss from heaven and that she will find out what the name means.
By the way, the name Anne means the Grace of God. :)
God is soo good!! I love it when I see and experience the love of God and when He gives people a kiss from heaven!!
