I rarely remember my dreams and since this dream was so vivid I need to write it down before I forget. I dreamt this yesterday morning.

I’ve had this bizarre dream before. I had it again yesterday but probably a lot more vividly and much more remembered than before. Here is what I saw as best as possibly written in words.

This is an update on Alex that I shared with some friends and ministry leaders who I asked prayers from. Ever since I have been leading prayer meetings, it has been a pet peeve of mine to not get updates from people who asked for prayers. I know life gets busy and sometimes the answers are not always quick to receive but I think it’s important to keep others informed with positive news along the way since they are also contending for their own faith and waiting on their petitions too.

Did you know that Jesus comes from the tribe of Judah depicted as a lion? Here is a short read and links for further study – https://www.gotquestions.org/lion-tribe-Judah.html

Hello! Here is the next MIP prayer sheet for Wednesday, 11/23 at 1pm. Theme is God is the Miracle Worker. Please pray on your own if you cannot join the prayer meeting and meditate on their scriptures too. I understand that we have not seen any or very few miracles but that does not mean we should stop believing or meditating on the works of God recorded in the Bible or listening to testimonies of others who have experienced or witnessed miracles. Remember that faith comes by hearing, and hearing the word of God. I also found a few paintings of God’s miracles in the Bible to help us have visuals of these events. I’ve attached them below. https://momsinprayer.org/resources/prayer-tools/prayer-sheets/miracle-worker-mobile-prayer-sheet/

I recently shared this message with my prayer group ladies. Unlike a bible study group which I also lead and facilitate at my church, I find leading and facilitating prayer groups to be A LOT more challenging. I wrestled about the reasons why. I think Corrie ten Boom summarized it well from the devil’s perspective.

I love reading and listening to testimonies of God’s love and faithfulness especially by older people in the faith.  I heard that my grandmother in my mom’s side was a faithful follower of Jesus Christ.  Since we live in the USA, we didn’t get to know her well.  My mom would share stories with me that her mom would attend her local church’s early morning prayers later in her life.  Perhaps my ease of waking up early to do my quiet time comes from my grandmother.  

If like me, you also did not observe closely someone who lived life for Jesus Christ, then you must seek out stories shared by other elderly believers. It is so powerful to hear about God’s goodness and faithfulness over a lifetime by a mature follower of Jesus Christ. Their stories are so faith-building and give us guidance on how we should live and follow in their footsteps if we desire their ending.

Last week I was very challenged with this attribute of God when in our Bible study discussion, a member brought up the story about the serial killer, rapist and cannibal who became a born-again believer while in prison, right before he was murdered by an inmate. My 8-pound brain froze and crashed like an old computer without capacity to comprehend God’s mercy extending to this serial killer. Honestly, I am still in shock at the unfairness of this situation. I have been saying to myself, “God, how can you be so merciful and kind to this super evil, wicked person?! How can you let him into heaven in his last hour? He didn’t even have time to prove his genuineness of faith and even suffer for a long time for his wrongdoings. It’s just not fair.”

This is a recent email message that I shared with my prayer group ladies. Carrie is a friend from church with Huntington disease. We just visited her and I am so astonished how much she has deteriorated during the last two years of the pandemic. I am challenged again to seek out the ins-and-outs of healing and miracles. It’s a topic that I’ve put on the shelf because of my frustrations and unbelief. Dear Lord Jesus, I repent of my unbelief and lack of love for others’ sufferings. Please have mercy upon me and help your children especially in the western church to believe and ask with faith, hope and love.
