Kollateral Damage Ministries

A few weeks ago I bought a T-shirt online from a well known ministry. I LOVE the design.

The same day the shirt was delivered I noticed that there was a refund from that ministry. ???? So I contacted them and asked what was going on. I have the shirt and I like it.

Their reply was they don't have the shirt in my size and won't reorder them soon, so they refunded my money. I went and checked the shirt. It's the size I ordered! I was like OK. I told them I have the shirt and they still refunded my money. ???

I was thinking this morning "I have T-shirt they say doesn't exist and they gave my money back!" I felt the weight on that.
I believe for me personally that "T-shirt that doesn't exist" is breakthrough in my family. It's been so long many have given up. I told one family member the other day by giving up they have more faith in the devil than God. Greater is He who is within you .. .

And getting my money back well . . that doesn't need much explaination.

Here's to all of us who will soon be proudly wearing those "T-shirts that don't exist!" and praising God for them!

I tell ya! Only God can still move despite a bad attitude and meet somebody in the bra section of Wal-mart! 😮
So yeah. I see this guy in the bra section and I'm wondering "what in the world??!!" 🙁 The eldery guy turns around and asks if I can help him.
I told him "maybe?"
He proceeds to tell me that his wife just got out of the hospital and she lost a lot of weight. Including that area. Her pants just fall right to floor. What size brasssiere would she need if she's 1xx lbs, 26 waist.
I help him guess then ask if I can pray for him. God met this man in the bra section of Wal-mart! He was moved and it was awesome to see! Despite my "curious" mind God had a plan way beyond me.
He eventually told me he thought he was going to loose her

so, I repair the navigation equipment for airplanes for a living.

Lately I have had a rash of units come in with the same issue. I haven't seen it before and I hadn't been able to duplicate it. So I went to engineering. I told them, "this is what the write-up is. This is how I tested it. And I just can't duplicate it." He then told me that issue is the plane's computer sending the wrong signal! :O Just test the units and send them back. OK!

A few days later the shop manager calls me over. He told me that he did a deep dive into all those units with the nav select issue AND they all came from the same plane! So, there is nothing wrong with those units. He even said "I wonder how they didn't catch this?"

I knew then that God was speaking to me. Especially after a book I had read over the weekend! "It's not my fault" I kept thinking and chewing on.

I just love Jesus and how original He is! He showed up to me in a Pilot's uniform holding out that piece of equipment. He apologized to me. he said "he's sorry for how people have treated me!" :O Talk about healing and freeing!

All that to say, I feel there are other's God wants to know and tell "It's not your fault!" You've been blamed for things that other's have done. God sees. God knows.

I was singing "how many times" by the Newsboys while driving today.

I heard Holy Spirit whisper: "Maybe the question should be, 'how many times will You prove that You love me?' "

OK, how many?

As many times as it takes for you to understand it!

:O

A friend told me once "a funny thing about prophetic people is they can find meaning in about anything." so here's something . . . :D

Back in April when I got my teeth cleaned they told me there was something near a crown that needed taken care of and the crown replaced. Insurance only covers about half of it. Ugh! I prayed that God would heal that part of my teeth!

I went back yesterday and it's still there. A different dentist spoke to me about it and why it needed taken care of. I explained not having the $$$ right now but I'll see what I can do.

On my way home I was thinking about this crown and really not wanting more work done.

BUT!! What if this is symbolic of taking off an old infected crown, get the area cleaned up and replacing it with better?

Such as, I take off bitterness, unlovable, prideful.. and replace it with God's crown? I am HIS! I am loved. I am wanted. I am valuable!

Ephesians 4:22-24 NLT
[22] throw off your old sinful nature and your former way of life, which is corrupted by lust and deception. [23] Instead, let the Spirit renew your thoughts and attitudes. [24] Put on your new nature, created to be like God—truly righteous and holy.

I want to share what God showed me using these pictures about offense.

Yesterday, I took my 2 year old granddaughter, Ellie and 4 year old grandson, Bo for a walk. Ellie ran in front of Bo and tripped. :( She got a small scrape on her knee. I picked her up and told her we'd clean it up and stuff when we got back to the house. I told Bo it was an accident and he wasn't in trouble. I know he didn't hurt Sissy on purpose.

At the house, Bo picked a BIG bandaid for his sister. We got her all cleaned up and really it's barely a scrape. She was crying and kept pointing "booboo." Once we put on the bandaid she was really funny. She was limping too! The limp was in proportion to the size of the bandaid. lol

This morning as I was praying God told me that offense is like what happened yesterday.

It's just a small barely there wound. But we get offended and make it look and sound worse than it really is (remember, Bo didn't knock her down on purpose!). We have to make sure others know we are hurting, either by telling them (Ellie telling me "booboo"), signs such as a limp or the bigger than needed bandaid.

That's it. Short and not really sweet :) ;)

I wonder if anybody gets something from this? I know what's going on in my life, so I know what I WANT it to mean. LOL I feel there is something on this.
On Monday my FitBit stopped working. Long story short is it was (thankfully!) still under warranty so I got a free replacement yesterday :D
Yesterday I had a flat tire. I went to have it looked it. It was unrepairable and needed replaced. BUT, it too was under warranty :O I only had to pay for a warranty on the new tire. :D
Two "free" replacements this week. Hmm.

I can think of
You will receive a double measure of wealth instead of your shame.
You will sing about your wealth instead of being disgraced.
That is why you will have a double measure of wealth in your land.
You will have everlasting joy. IS 61:7 GW

***Then I will repay you for the years
that the mature locusts, the adult locusts,
the grasshoppers, and the young locusts ate your crops.
(They are the large army that I sent against you.) Joel 2:25 GW
and of course:
*** I will give you a new heart and put a new spirit in you; I will remove from you your heart of stone and give you a heart of flesh. EZ 36:26 NIV

Some days you just need to release your inner child and go all out "sore winner" on satan.

Just remind him that's he's lost, defeated, Christ has won the war...

Then run it in with a victory dance and some shouting!

‭‭Colossians 2:15 TPT‬‬
[15] Then Jesus made a public spectacle of all the powers and principalities of darkness, stripping away from them every weapon and all their spiritual authority and power to accuse us. And by the power of the cross, Jesus led them around as prisoners in a procession of triumph. He was not their prisoner; they were his!

I wish I had gotten a before picture also!

I was repairing this board on Friday. It had a broken trace. I was so nervous. I was praying for God to help me because this is something I'm not good at, a solder bridge.

I felt Holy Spirit as I worked and got it the first try! Yes!! And it looks good!! I had to take a picture. 😊☺️

I was looking at this picture earlier and felt Holy Spirit say that it's prophetic for broken connections that will be fixed in my life!!

‭‭Jeremiah‬ ‭32:17‬ ‭NLT‬‬
[17] “O Sovereign Lord! You made the heavens and earth by your strong hand and powerful arm. Nothing is too hard for you!

I really feel God wants me to share this. I have been praying He helps me to write. Because I know I still have some tender feelings towards others involved. So keep that in mind ;)

About a year and a half ago I found myself in a bad situation out of my control and crazy beyond belief! (which for various reasons I cannot yet share details publically!)

People I thought would support me turned on me and the "Christian advice" was horrible. So many without even listening just kept blaming me. I was told I will laugh about this in years. I was told choices have been made and I need to deal with it.

Well, Dudes, we obviously don't serve the same God becuase mine is a miracle worker. Even if it's just Him and me.

My circle grew smaller. But God sent people who taught me how to pray for this.

OK, now to the point. This year I watched two different sports games with odd comebacks that I believe are prophetic to my situation. It looks hopeless, I have been told to give up BUT GOD!

Over the summer hubby and I went to a local minor league baseball game. It was 2 -0 at the top of the 9th, us. We decided to stay because the game was basically over..

Wellll. .. a new pitcher came into the game. The visitors ended up scoring 5 runs in the top of the 9th to our 0 in the bottom to win the game. :O

I knew it was a word for me to not give up on my situation. And if you're into Biblical numbers, 5 is grace and 9 is birthing. Extra meanings :D

I was watching the Colt's game a few weeks ago. Yeah "that game". :( 33-0 at the beginning of the 3rd quarter. I switched over to watch a movie. This was over. Then I saw comments and the score(s) on FB, I turned back to the game to watch the Colts loose in OT! 39 - 36.

Just like the baseball game, it looked over. I had walked away saying "it's over" BUT GOD had other plans. No matter how much the situation looks hopeless God can turn it around. God is still in the game.

My situation is beyond dark right now. But I know God has an OT win in mind for me (and you to friend!)
