This chapter of my eBook “Stories of Power: Love, Faith & Hope” really happened with my mother and me!
Check it out!
📙 At dawn: Facing a thief inside the house!
“Draw out also the spear, and stop the way against them that persecute me: say unto my soul, I am thy salvation.” (Psalms 35:3 KJV).
We were sleeping normally, when my mother woke up at dawn, saying:
– I had a bad dream about you. Let’s pray.
She told me the dream:
– There was a man who tied your hands behind your back.
We prayed promptly, rebuking that evil in the Authority and Power that is in the Name of JESUS! We invoke the Word of GOD:
“no weapon forged against you will prevail, […]” (Isaiah 54:17 NIV).
And we went back to sleep…
In the same morning, around 5 am, there was a noise on the roof. We were in an almost century-old house, in a historic city.
I thought it was the neighbor, fixing the roof. The moment I turned my head to look at the corridor, it was the exact moment that the thief inside our house, in the corridor, put his head to spy on us!
I shouted a terrifying scream like a horror movie, waking up till our neighbors!!!
My mother woke up scared, asking what it was! And I said distressed:
– Mommy! There’s a thief here, inside the house!!!
– What!! – She screamed (rising the Fire from toe to her head! When she feels that Fire, she is not afraid of anything!!)
She shouted:
– We belong to JESUS and I will send FIRE!!!
At that time, we heard his footsteps leaving, through the same place he entered, which was the roof! That thug didn’t attack us or take anything! Glory be to God!!!
We noticed that he made a lot of mistakes when he tried to enter, because he chose the wrong spaces on the roof, without being able to pass! He had fumbled all over!!
The LORD obstructs the way to those who persecute us! (Psa 35.3)
“He shall call upon Me, and I will answer him; I will be with him in trouble; I will deliver him and honor him.” (Psalms 91:15 NKJV).
GOD uses dreams to warn of dangers, in order to deliver His people. Look:
“For God may speak in one way, or in another, Yet man does not perceive it. In a dream, in a vision of the night, When deep sleep falls upon men, While slumbering on their beds, Then He opens the ears of men, And seals their instruction. In order to turn man from his deed, And conceal pride from man, He keeps back his soul from the Pit, And his life from perishing by the sword.” (Job 33:14â€-‬18 NKJV).
GOD IS GOOD! For His Goodness, for His Zeal, He warned my mother in a dream, in order that we might pray, trusting in His deliverance! Prayer is the key to victory!
“He will redeem his soul from going down to the Pit, And his life shall see the light. “Behold, God works all these things, Twice, in fact, three times with a man, To bring back his soul from the Pit, That he may be enlightened with the light of life.” (Job 33:28â€-‬30 NKJV).
GOD allows His people go through the affliction, but He is with us at all times, to free us and know of His care, His Power! Thus, we grow in Faith and genuine trust in Him!
Remember Daniel in the lions’ den, and his three friends in the blazing fire furnace! GOD let them go through the extreme situation, but He was with them, supporting and freeing! Praise the LORD of Glory! Hallelujah!
“Many are the afflictions of the righteous, but the LORD delivers him from all.” (Psalms 34.19)
