OBEDIENCE-
I was invited to a church that I do not particularly care for. I went because two people whom I love are members and would be there, I saw it as an opportunity to honor the elders.
Departing from my home 10 minutes later than I had anticipated leaving, I asked the Holy Spirit how much should I give as an offering: I was told $10. I reached in the compartment where I kept spare cash at and saw $28. I was thinking I would just give the 20 but the Lord said again: $10. I had $1 in my wallet and I was thinking: I will give just $9. When I arrived at the church I searched in my purse and found another dollar: I had my offering.
PURPOSE-
The service was expected, uninspiring traditional singing and preaching out of context. As the guest pastor was giving his out of context message, I wanted to leave. And the Spirit of God told me to pray. I prayed first in words and then in Spirit, using my heavenly language; yes, I was praying silently.
As this church leader continue to declare that “God was not through” despite the outcome of the election, I felt the Spirit move over my heart and I prayed all the more.
When the female church leader began closing the service, she called for prayer. I had stopped praying and then began praying all the more. I prayed for those individuals who were hungry for God, individuals who needed His help.
GOD’S RELEASE
God spoke to me: This church will be no more.
He heard my prayer for His children at the alter and will lead them to Him.

This experience confirmed my purpose and the direction I need to go. I wanted to share with you my experience because we must all understand the times we are in. We must cast off our desires to satisfy self and do those things that He requires. I could have stayed home.

Matthew 6:32-34 (KJV)
32 (For after all these things do the Gentiles seek:) for your heavenly Father knoweth that ye have need of all these things.
33 But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you.
34 Take therefore no thought for the morrow: for the morrow shall take thought for the things of itself. Sufficient unto the day is the evil thereof.

It’ not about me, it is not about you, it is about God’s will being done on earth as it is being done in heaven.

2 Chronicles 7:14 (KJV)
If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land.

The Pastor spoke from 2 Chronicles 6:35-38 and quoted 7:14 with the congregation joining in enthusiastically. They believe they are the righteous of God. (2 Timothy 3:14-17) I know some of the congregants and they believe that the woman they voted for is the one God approves of.
We are entering a season of correction. My caution to EVERYONE, make sure the correction you receive is righteous correction:

Revelation 3:19 (KJV)
As many as I love, I rebuke and chasten: be zealous therefore, and repent.

The words I have written are according to what was placed on my heart. Let the reader receive them with prayer, supplication and acceptance. BE BLESSED MARSH
