Drawing Nearer to the Heart of God April 21, 2008

“And it shall come to pass afterward that i will pour out My Spirit on all flesh; your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, your old men shall dream dreams, your young men shall see visions.”

– Joel 2:28

Step 2:

1- Afterward

2- Pour out My Spirit on flesh  

3- Sons & daughters shall prophesy

4-Old Men dream dreams

5- Young men see visions

Step 3:

1- Not before

2- What God was gonna do- pour out His Spirit on man

3- Young shall prophesy. Prophesy meaning to speak as if divinely inspired, to preach, to for-tell.

4- Wise men will dream dreams given from the Lord. Dream- Strongly desired goal or purpose.

5- Discernment & foresight will be known by the young.

Step 4:

After a fast for repentance Israel was told this is one of the things that would take place. Sounds like revival in the land to me. I am opening the door in my life for the Lord to do amazing things by fasting (giving up something for a period of time). Am i ready for what He’s gonna or can do?

Step 5:

Well, physical readiness may never happen but spiritual readiness i hope is prepared and continuing to prepare. Heather squeals, “Bring It On!! Bring on dreams, visions, prophesies, and revival to me & my house! An if any part of me is in the way Lord, remove it!”

      I have embarked on something never done before today and i’m curious who else has done this or does do it presently and what you think about it. FASTING… Sounds like the easiest but is much harder than i expected. Especially food- my friend.

     Tomorrow Barry & I begin our bible study together. I happen to be reading an AWESOME book on fasting right now and felt a fool if i didn’t put into practice all that i’ve learned thus far. Not to mention that i have been praying that the Lord would cause something only of Him to take place while Barry & I study His Word together and learn (& re-learn) what He has to say to us. I can’t convey to you how badly i want Barry to become so addicted to reading & learning from God’s Word that he can’t get enough. Therefore, this study is more important to me than even the conference! I asked myself what can i do to prove my sincerity and bring on the Lord’s blessing. Thanks to this book… fasting was the answer. Fasting, prayer, and giving- so i’ve learned. 

     I wondered if any of you, my readers, have done this. Maybe what came about because of it. I’m anxious to hear some feedback on what you think. Please share!

Listening To the Lord’s Voice- Share the steps in full detail.
