This may not be powerful to others but it was to me. A message seeping in the Spirit and these moments for me as a actual supernatural revelation to come forward does not happen everyday.
Tonight, in our weekly community group we was having game night. A community group is where a group of families meet outside of church to do deeper studies and grow together.
We had our new assistant pastor who first discovered our church a few months ago but our main pastor has already had his help teaching 3 sermons.
Point is, that I have not spoken to him yet or really told many people the God nudges that I wrestle with in my heart and mind.
After the group was ending in prayer, the assistant pastor looks at me and says in front of everyone he had a message for me.
And he knew I had been struggling with the idea for years about a pastoral urging, my wife has been telling me for years. And he knew this without me telling him and I have not shared those inner thoughts.
He told me he could see the Spirit in me and spoke for twenty minutes or more. Basically hitting on my fears and worries.
He has offered to meet with me. In which I hope to seek mentoring. This mans faith is beyond the average and honestly from the first time he preached, I kept saying I need to grow close this man. I need the strength of his faith and the wisdom he had. And all I know about him is that he was a pastor in Germany and planted many churches and many grew large enough that now have branched off into the US.
This experience was hair raising and a confirmation that I was always hesitant to admit due to personal reasons usually from ignorance. But Satan used the ignorance, fear, or worry to bring self doubt and squash the spiritual nudges.
I share this because I feel very blessed and humble that God reminds me that he has a plan, and I must remain obedient and faithful during the seasons of preparation that I often get distracted in by losing the bigger picture.
This RoughSoul is 100% human and earns that title more often than I wish to admit. And for God to remind me the way he did was so heartwarming that I cannot help but tear up. Yes I read the word that says that God doesn't forget or walk away, but to actually feel it..... has shaken my soul.
