Thank you so much for all your prayers and encouragement as I have been through the fire and back again.
By Gods awesome grace I have come out the other side without even the smell of smoke on my garments. Every step of the way was a miracle from God.
This is a picture that I painted while I was under the skillful surgeon, Jesus' care in the hospital.
It is blue because "I" the "Firedancer" went through the hottest part of the flame during this time.
As you may know the 'blue range' of a flame is the hottest part of the fire.
Yet by Our loving Lord's grace I came out the other side free of my bonds without even a scorch, neither has the smell of the smoke stuck to me (the effects of the experience).
I lived something akin to what Hananiah, Azariah and Mishael went through aka Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego or as Rick Joyner likes to say; My Shack, Your Shack and a Bungalow.
If you want to read the story just hover over the scripture in; Daniel 1:6-7 through Daniel 3:1-30
In case some of you are wondering what I am going on about. I was in the hospital in November and as you can see from my last post the hospital was a mental ward.
Wow I said it!
There in plain view for all of you out there who need a bit of gossip to float your boat.
Smile, just kidding. But not really...
I truly hope you won't go there. But if you are tempted to just drop me a line or give me a call. I am happy to tell you first hand if you really want to know.
Hopefully over a nice 'cupper' your choice, tea, coffee or better yet come for a whole meal.
I pray that as this New Year begins I will have the boldness to tell my story but only the bits that are necessary to tell. And only the parts that will edify you and cause you to draw near to God.
Because Truly it is All about HIM
As you read my words which I pray will be a sweet balm to your soul I hope that what I share from my experience will launch you to a higher level and cause you to run to Pappa as I did.
I pray that you too will come to know how much He "Pappa God" truly loves you and that there isn't a moment that He ever has or ever will abandon you. Even when it may feel that way.
That is one of the main lessons that I learned during that time.
I can write a book about what happened to me and perhaps one day I will.
But for now just know that even in your darkest hour. When you may be alone in your pain or worries. Or when, as in my case the forces of hell come against you full force. Our God has promised that He would never leave us or forsake us. Hebrews 13:5
In the time that I was going through this I was taken in the spirit to the 3rd heaven. The place where God dwells. 2 Chronicles 12:2
Sorry if this is hard for some of you to swallow but it is true.
One day I hope to tell some of the things that I saw and experienced while I was there, but for now the only thing I can tell you is that the 'Time is Truly at Hand'.
The Bachelorette and Bachelor party is about to take place. See Proverbs 13:22 to understand. The Big Bash before the finale is just on the horizon.
Now you know what that means, The Wedding Day is next. Jeremiah 33:11
So get ready. It's time to put do as Ephesians 4:1-32 & 1 Chronicles 13:11 says put and grow up.
Psalms 69:1-36 / Psalm 18:1-50 will show you some of what I experienced and what I learned first hand in the midst of fervent flames of fury.
I pray that you will get the revelation that the Lord gave me without having to get it through the school of hard knocks like I did.
The hard part that is because the places in the 3rd heaven were I went was sooo glorious you can't imagine how fabulous it is getting ready to be.
So for now abide in Him Our Lover Lord and get ready for the Wedding Day.
Peace, Love and Much prayer to all you out there, Soroya
I love the painting. I have to paint from things I can actually see. I wish I could paint from "the minds eye" like you.
ReplyDeleteI know you will share your experiences as you feel called to do so and I know they will inspire others.
Welcome back! Amen for the hard times that grow us closer to the Lord. I like your painting! Dance always gets my attention

Wow Soroya! I am so happy you are feeling better and that God brought you through the hottest fire. He promises to do so. God shows us things in visions and dreams and speaks to us in ways we'd never experience if life was always hunky dorey. It's when we're in the fire that God shows up big time and shows us just how powerful he really is. He brought you through the fire just in time to enjoy your Christmas and new year celebration.
ReplyDeleteMerry Christmas to you and your family. I write about Jesus being the greatest Christmas gift of all in my new blog post. Blessings to you.
