Prior to the third chemo God dropped little nuggets of challenges in my spirit – “write and prepare a testimony”, which I kept in my heart and spoke to Him about. Last week on the 28th Elbrie my daughter was with me and asked if we could have a chat while Daniel is sleeping and we enjoy something warm to drink, me just having my normal sips of water!
She started straight to the point – “I have been praying for you and asked God straight questions. Today I want to deliver my thoughts which I believe are inspired by His Spirit.”
“Mom you need to write a testimony and prepare.”
What could I say more? Father God has spoken and fireball Elbrie was calm, cool and determent in delivering her message.
Staring at her I thanked God deep in my heart. Looking back on a decade thinking – ‘Father I have no other agenda but to praise you. You have shown yourself as the Almighty Father in this decade in my life’. This is my daughter I have fought for when the enemy wanted to destroy her – and here she is sitting in front of me, standing with me now and not cringing to be straight and delivering God’s confirmation.
I remembered my husband said to me seven months ago: “I am preparing to release you from the business because God showed me I need to release you for ministry!” That same following Sunday at church God confirmed through a minister from Uganda I remember his name as Trevor, that God shows him Leroux needs to release me for ministry.
At that stage my carnal mind rushed and I asked how this is going to happen. I am a bookkeeper and love accountancy and everything my husband taught me from his years of experience as a professional accountant and consultant. I could not see beyond the carnal mind!!! I remember Leroux and Trevor saying, “Don’t worry God will lead the way and take you through, it is for His purposes.”
Elbrie lightened up with a twinkle in the eye, “I will help you and here is my thoughts, pray about it, get the Scriptures of God’s Word together and write, I will help with the editing, print it, read and learn it, speak and teach it to yourself using the mirror.” That was it!!!
