Praying knowingly.
I believe it is better to know what you are praying for. Not just in general. The other people that believe the same thing are prophetic worshippers and warriors. Have you ever listened to these people worhip and intercede? They don't just pray in a general, "we pray for this world, help it out" or "We pray for the people here" They really pray the heart of God. And if they are praying the heart of God then there's a lot more than what most people pray for. I bet most people don't konw how much war we are in with the enemy do you. And I bet most people are oblivious to what is going on when worship takes place. My prayers are not for the enemy to take from me. The more accurate my prayers the more of it goes to God and satan can't touch it. I can pray for missionaries b/c it's warfare out there, I know what to pray for. I don't want to pray an empty prayer. Sometimes I feel more like an intercessor or a warrior than just some christian who thinks they can get by with the minimum. We have different jobs in the body of Christ, somethings need to be different with other people. My thing is is that you really don't need to hide anything when needing prayer. There a certain things that might be embarrasing, like for me it would be something that has to do with porn or masturbation. Those things I would have trouble saying that I needed prayer for, unless it was like "raise your hand if you need prayer for anything that has to do with sexual stuff." Then I'd most likely raise my hand. Or if you asked or something to that effect I would admit. But other than that, I really don't think there is anything anybody should be afraid of saying, "hey I need prayer for this" you know?
"soulmates" Part 3. cont.
You wouldn't marry someone who isn't fit for you. You would marry someone with the same beliefs There are people who God have had marry that didn't seem right for each other. For example my dad heard the Lord say that he was going to marry the wife he has now. They wouldn't have worked out if it weren't for their same beliefs and trust in God. If they didn't have this they would have left each other way back. If they left each other way back, then I wouldn't be here. If it was God's plan that I be here but my parents left each other then they pretty much messed with God's plan. My point is that not EVERY single thing is planned by God. You say that He as planned your WHOLE life, and then you say He knows what you'll say and do. There is a difference in plan and knowing. He didn't PLAN for you to sin, but he KNEW you were going to. Where in the bible does it say that you have a certian person for you? Or that everyone has a "right" person for them? Obviously the second one is out of question b/c, like I said in my earlier blog, Jeremiah wasn't suppose to marry and he didn't. Even Paul didn't marry. He made this decision ON HIS OWN FREE WILL. Marriage is something that takes a lot of passion for your spouse and for God. Not everyone is meant to marry, and not everyone should. If you do get married I believe, if you're really look for a person, that He'll send one to you. He knows what you want and need. He'll supply you with it.
"soulmates" cont.
This a continuation of "soulmates." I personally believe that God only has a general plan, and no matter what happens, it's going to happen and the fianl outcome is going to be the same. Since we do have free will not everything we do is going to be in His plan. If we do something that has disrupted His plan He WILL find a way to put something back on course. So He has a general plan and then plans that come around when we do something stupid. Does He know if you are going to love Him or not, or if you are going to go to heaven? Do you think that He has already planned every single little thing out? I believe God gets surprised, He has moods and hasn't looked into the future and seen what you are going to do when you're 50. That's what I believe, otherwise we would not have free will nor would we have good or evil. In my opinion if God planned everything out then there wouldn't even be such things like that. If God planned for some poeple to love Him and some people to not love Him, but he wants everyone to love Him, do you think that that pretty much gives Him the credibility of retarted? When Jesus was casting out demons the pharisees thought that he was a demon himself, and Jesus was like "Why would a demon cast out a demon?" Same rule here: Why would God plan for people to love Him and people to not love Him if He has planned EVERYTHING? Now when it comes to the "right" one, would it make sense to pick someone for a certain someone, give them free will, and make divorce a sin? Not every one knows what God wants, and in fact a lot of people are confused on what His voice is and what their head is. If the "right" one was actually a true thing and you were to marry someone because you thought that he was the "one" but he wasn't, you're screwed from finding the right one. Only alternative is to divorce, which is a sin unless your spouse commits adultry. Now you marry a person (still asuming that the "right" one is a true thing) you find out from God that that person isn't the right one and that person never commits adultry. You are pretty much required to live in a mistake. I honestly don't think God would want us to get screwed like that. So here we are: finding someone that fits you or finding this "right" person that people think God has put out in the world somewhere.
