WAS IT THE DEER'S DAY TO DIE?

In my last post, I put a link to an email to a TV production which showed the miracles that happened after an horrific accident.  If you saw the link, please bear with me while I summarise as quickly as I can.

My sister-in-law Cindy, and her husband, Jim, had taken a motorbike ride out into the country, and decided to come back along a route that would allow her to take pictures of a tree that was in full 'fall' bloom.  On their way home, a deer ran out in front of them. The bike hit the deer, and the two riders slid across the ground, with my sister-in-law on top of her husband,  When she got up, Jim was so badly injured, she did not know if he was dead or alive. What happened around these circumstances were amazing.  Nothing more than a miracle!

A truck coming the other way was being driven by a man who was on his way to attend a wedding, at a nearby church.  Another vehicle came along and it was a pastor, (who knew Cindy and Jim,) and the pastor's wife, who was a trauma nurse.  As the injuries were so severe, Jim had to be airlifted.  The only place that the helicopter could land was at a small church, which was full of people for a wedding.  Lots of people to pray.

Once at the hospital, tests were taken and Jim was in ICU.  He was very sick.  Jim had been very active, so much so, their son had started a blog about his father, just before the accident, called 'Jim the Axeman'.  When he was at the hospital, they said he was 'unresponsive', and the family should prepare themselves for the worst. Cindy, quite devastated, went into another room where her son was sitting, and seeing his mother very distraught, he used the blog to post that his father needed prayers. The following day (or thereabouts) Jim responded. The doctors were amazed.  Day after day, week after week, prayers were said, and like a miracle Jim got better, and better. Although not 100%, he was able to return home, and start work, much to the doctor's further amazement, and is living as normal a life as possible. There are a few problems, as there would be with any damage to the brain, but this man should, according to the medical profession, not have survived, or recovered as quickly as he did. Most of the prayers that were said were to God, or Lord, or Jesus, or Christ. Most of those saying the prayers had probably never been spoken to about the revelation that I have had. Elohim responded because Jim was not meant to die. However, Jim's suffering brought many to know the wonders of Elohim, and His son. 

With so many coincidences, it started me wondering whether Cindy and Jim should have been on the road, or should not.  My first thought when I saw the video (not after the accident) was that the deer was meant to die!  The Butterfly Effect.  After all, Elohim created it!  No one said Cindy and Jim should not have taken that route back home.  Cindy wanted to take a picture of a tree, and they chose to take the alternative route.  Perhaps they drove that route more often than not, but that day, they chose to take that route.  Perhaps the man in the truck was not meant to be at the wedding, and perhaps, he was meant to be the one that struck the deer.  There are so many variables.  What put everyone on that road at the same time?  They could have taken the ride the week before, when there was no wedding, when the pastor was not driving along with his wife the nurse. 

With so much going through my head, and so many questions asked of Elohim, I was given another insight.  Messiah told the disciples that they would suffer in His name.  I have always considered this to be persecuted for our belief, as has been indicated, and perhaps taught.  What if the suffering is not always persecution?

However, Jim's suffering brought many to know the wonders of Elohim, and His son. 

I am sorry if this is slightly disjointed but I cannot summarize with any more clarity.  The more I ask, the more I am given.  Being 'outside the box' has opened up so many more questions.  One of them is being obedient.  As I said, I am not meant to use the names that are commonly used, but I know he hears.  I know that everything is for a purpose.  I have continually stated how there was no 'J' in the Hebrew alphabet, and how it must be offensive to call Elohim's son by a name other than that given to Him by His father, and I still stand by this, but everyone must be obedient.  That is, after all, a command; To love IAUE your Elohim with all your heart, with all your soul and all your might. As long as our ears are open to the Holy Spirit, we should receive the answers. 

Grace and peace.

IT NEVER GETS OLD!

Several things have been 'playing' on my mind recently, and I have been reminded that although I know that Elohim is in charge, those who do not call him by the names to which I have been shown, He is still in charge. 

I recently had lunch with a lady who is the wife of one of our process servers.  We have been promising each other for a long time that we would 'get together', but nothing materialised.  However, we made a date, after about eight years, and found that we were very compatible in all areas.  Although she considers herself a 'converted' Messianic Jew, she still uses the terms God, Lord and Jesus. This did nothing to diminish the quality of our fellowship. We talked for six hours, praying and praising, discussing and diagnosing.  We learned a lot from each other and realised that, although we did not necessarily see 'eye to eye', on the names, we both thought outside the box and our spiritual walk was constantly taking us to new depths. 

Many times I have said that prayers to Elohim do not need to be spelled out.  If someone asks for prayer for a broken arm, it is unnecessary to tell him how to fix the bone.  He knows how to heal, after all, he has the blue prints!  If someone is in pain, it is unnecessary for us to diagnose and tell him to stop the hurting by explaining what we think is causing the problem.  We ask Him to go to the 'root'.  After explaining to my new friend that I had been the victim of 'panic attacks' and then mentioning that I had dreamed a recurring dream for as long as I could remember, followed up by the story of my family (which I mentioned in a previous post), it became obvious to her that everything was connected, and suggested that his may be a family curse and she could pray for me and as Elohim to relieve me. She prayed for me, and asked Elohim (she used the Hebrew terms, as she knew that I do not use the commonly used biblical terms) to heal me and He released me from the curse.  Almost as soon as she started to pray, I felt a 'pop' inside, and suddenly I knew that I would not have attacks again, nor would the recurring dream reoccur.  I cannot explain how I know, and in the past I, too, would be sceptical, but I have faith that I have been released. 

My friend explained that she has prayed over many people, and many have been healed and given peace.  She has prayed in the name of Yahashua, and Jesus.  She has prayed to Elohim and God.  All her prayers have obviously been heard, and many have been answered.  (We can only ask; His agenda may not be ours!)  I am still firmly convinced that I have been shown something magnificent, and I will not revert as I do believe that I must not the terms God, Lord, Jesus and Christ.  However, it does not mean that He does not hear.  I feel that it comes down to us being obedient.  I can tell someone until I am blue in the face that there was no 'J' in the Hebrew alphabet, but unless it has been revealed, spiritually, I cannot force them to see what I have been shown.  It is also not up to me to judge someone who does not see something spiritually, just as others cannot judge me if Elohim has not spiritually revealed something to me.  His timing is perfect and we are all His tools. 

My meeting with my new friend started a new phase in my spiritual walk, and I knew we had been put together at this time for this very reason.  There were a lot of interesting things that 'popped up' after the meeting, and I saw some things in a new light.  We are, after all, continually growing. Then yesterday I was watching an episode of a broadcast on a network called 'Lumindeo'.  It featured my sister in law and her husband, who survived an horrific motorbike accident.  How they survived was a miracle.  What happened after the accident was a miracle.  I do not normally put links on my posts, but I am going to make an exception, due to the fact that I have been shown something quite interesting and, I think, amazing.  It also reinforced the magnitude of my creator and the miracle of miracles, and forced me, once again, to look at all the new things that He is showing me.

I shall leave my thoughts, and things I have been shown, for another post, just in case you wish to view the attachment.  Elohim works in mysterious ways, and who are we to argue.
