Computer Wackies
Mood:  d'oh
Topic: One Day, One Moment


I don't really have much time to write today. The computer I am using has the "Wackies" or something. Whatever that is!

Oh! Okay. Great. My session was just been extended. That's an immediate answer to prayer because most of my session has been spent restarting this computer.

I was frustrated a little. But I simply asked my Daddy (Abba), to extend my computer time. So then. Praise be the our Father in Heaven in Jesus' name!

I don't have a drop of an idea about what to write today since my thoughts became momentarily scrambled. Okay, Lord. What now?

Yes. I have an ongoing dialogue with my Lord. Constantly I am conversing with him in one way or another. I have to. It's how I get through life -- the way I've managed to stay sane through so many traumas in my life -- a lifestyle I seem to have developed.

Other than that I take life one day, one moment at a time. That is all I can deal with effectively. This too is now a way of life for me.

And when I hit a stumbling block like I did with this computer, I ask my God for his help. Many times I have asked, "What now, Lord?" I do this because very often when I have some sort of delay, God is trying to get my attention about something. Sometimes he wants to redirect my plans. During the problems with this computer today, I was beginning to suspect just that. Maybe my Lord wanted me to go back to the place I was earlier and pray again. Hmmmm? We will see.

Anyway, my priority of most of this day is to intercede regarding a loved one who has been estranged from me for some time.

I finally found a particular place I was looking for, where I felt the Lord would have me pray about this matter, even though there is no distance in prayer. There I prayed until I felt a release in my spirit.

If God willing, I plan to do the same thing tomorrow.

In the meantime I did do a little ministry yesterday in the area of encouragement (my session has just been extended again!). Unfortunately, the enemy tried to use the person I was trying to encourage, to discourage me. Does this sound familiar? This seems to be one of Old Slew foot's's favorite tactics.

It did not work. You can be certain. My Lord sent someone to confirm my words. A lady nearby happened to hear our conversation. She cut in and told the other woman to, "Be quiet and listen, because she is right. She is telling the truth."

The lady who came to my rescue, also a believer in Christ Jesus, began ministering to the lady I was previously encouraging and sharing with. Now, isn't that just like our Lord?

After ministering to the lady I was trying to help, I began sharing some things I knew the Lord was going to do in my life. When she began trying to cast doubt concerning these things, I sharply rebuked her. She came at me again and again with her doubts until I almost walked away from her before the other woman cut into our conversation and confirmed my words.

You see, when my Lord promises me something, I don't let anyone steal it from me. Not at any cost. I hang onto it like a pit bull, because once a pit bull sinks its teeth into its opponent, it will hang on to the death. And in this situation I hung on to the death of doubt. I refused to go until the seeds of doubt had no life in them at all. I was determined to stand on God's promises and on his Word.

So then, from Computer Wackies to a well meaning lady who was casting seeds of doubt onto God's promises in my life, I take life one day, one moment at a time. And I am continually conversing with my Father in Heaven. It works for me and it will work for you.
