I haven’t stopped learning who God is. I don’t paste it on my facebook or send
texts, I’ve just been studying who He is.
Yesterday: Counselor Isaiah 9:6
I must say that learning, seeking, pursuing who God is has
been amazing and makes me fall more and more in love with Him. I am thankful that I was lead by the Holy
Spirit to do it, one name at a time.
Mark 2:17 17 On hearing this, Jesus said to them, “It is not the healthy who need a doctor, but the sick. I have not come to call the righteous, but sinners.”
People go to counselors to seek healing. To talk about their issues, maybe get a
fresh perspective, but ultimately to get healing. I know that I said that I started fasting yesterday. I really did learn a lot about myself, and
about God during this time. My time was
deliberate, my actions were deliberate.
I have gone to Him over and over as a counselor these last couple days.
One thing I did every time I was hungry, I sent a text or an
email encouraging someone. I felt like God was encouraging me to do so. I
thought they might think I was a little whacky, but I prayed for guidance for
the messages to who and what to say.
Everyone was encouraged, but one person asked me if everything was
ok. Maybe I surprised her. That made me realize that to some I am not
as encouraging as I need to be, that it is not as much part of my norm as I
thought it was.
I asked God to point out what in my walk with Him in my life
is not honoring to Him. A couple times
as I was speaking I am pretty sure the spirit said ‘shhhh’. When I heard that I couldn’t help but be
quiet because I wasn’t sure what I heard. I would seek Him to receive counsel on how to be more like Him.
There was a lot I heard yesterday, a lot more I can
share. I have heard that we are not
supposed to tell people when we are fasting but I think that in the future I
may not always write about it, but in this instance, I feel encouraged to share
what I am learning, and encourage others that if you’ve never fasted and you
feel lead to do so (by the Holy Spirit) that you should. I would also recommend
that you read up on what you should and shouldn’t do. I was lead to do a juice fast I didn’t feel like abstaining from
food completely was the right thing to do, so that’s how I was lead and that’s
what I did (and I don’t regret it).
I’ve learned a lot about myself, my actions in the last day
or so. I’ve also only listened to
Worship music to keep my heart in tune with Him. I’ve witnessed quite a few miracles, some BIG and some small, and
each one crafted by an Amazing God.
Is 9:6
or to us a child is born, to us a son is given,
and the government will be on his shoulders.
And he will be called
Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God,
Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace
