Hi Matthew:
Well, this time the prophecy made more sense. In the prior one you gave me a couple of months ago it mentioned about me prophesying to strangers and being a prophetic teacher. So you can see this was very similar. (Yes, I read your book Prophesying to Strangers Made Simple.) I’ve read several of your books as well as books by others as you’ve said. I also watch a lot of videos of people I admire who walk very closely with the Lord.
I don’t feel I am as sensitive to the Holy Spirit as you say, but that is one of the desires of my heart. I am always asking Jesus to talk to me in a way I can understand. I’m just not hearing that still small voice, and it’s very frustrating. I’ve also been asking Him to give me a face-t0-face visitation. I know he does that without people asking him to and also with people who DO ask. I’ve also read where there are people asking for this for 30 years and it never happening. That scares me because I want it so badly. But, I want to be good with whatever He decides. You said you saw more intimacy with Him in the future, so I am hoping it’s that, that I’ve been asking for.
I sing to him almost everyday in worship songs. Well, I sing along with the worship singers because I don’t sing all that well. :)
You also mentioned in my older prophecy and this one that you can see me writing. I’ve not give much thought to that, but since you’ve said it twice, maybe something will come out of that.
As far as being more Christlike, yes, I strive for that. And I do look for people to model that because it’s not always easy to see in those who proclaim Christ.
And yes, I am forthright and honest most of the time when I am not intimidated. LOL!
Yes, I love details. It frustrates my husband because he gives barebones information when passing info along to me. I’m always asking for details.
Yes, I am praying for the gift of prophecy, but especially the Word of Knowledge. I feel that’s what makes people stop and look up. They may attribute it to psychic ability, but I will correct them on that if that is the case.
I’m encouraged that you said that speaking via the Holy spirit would become very natural. That’s what I want. I don’t want to feel I’m pushing or creating an event so that I can talk to someone about their life or Jesus. People don’t want to be pushed.
Anyway, thanks again for that encouraging word. You said I would helping 100’s, perhaps 1,000’s with encouragement and prophecy. I don’t see many people at the moment, but I’ve felt like I’ve been in training at home with all my Bible reading and praying in the spirit and watching videos that help me in my walk. I guess I will know when God releases me to go do what I am being trained to do.
I may be contacting you in the future since I can’t find a church here in my little town where those gifts are evident as the moment.
Sincerely,
Rita
