Blue Bicycle - word of knowledge

 Good morning 😀

On this blog l do my very best to keep up with the evidence of the Spirit of the Living God alive and well in our daily life.

Here is another l clearly forgot to record.

This scenario happened during my last teaching time at the public school l taught at for 8 years. A young lad from grade 8 asked me about the various gifts of the Spirit.

I replied to him stating that there are 9 gifts of the Spirit.. He asked me sir what is the gift of a word of knowledge. I replied to him saying well my boy it's when God gives you information about something in someone else's life and when you speaker words that you have been given,  the person is shocked that you knew something about them that no one else did. What do you mean sir? To which I replied I saw you riding your blue Bicycle on the weekend and you were coming down a hill, a steep hill, and a bus came up behind you and nearly ran you over. You literally had to swerve out the way and you crushed onto the verge on the side of the road. You were not badly injured.

When I told the boy this information he literally burst out crying and his legs went weak. On his haunches he looked up at me and said sir you have just described what happened to me on Saturday. I was riding my blue Bicycle down the hill here in Morningside, and a bus almost knocked me over. I had to swerve on to the verge and I fell onto the grass. How did you know that? To which I replied I did not know that, but that is how the gift of the Spirit, a word of knowledge functions. 

I was as shocked as the young lad as I had never operated in the gift of knowledge ever. I was just trying to give him an illustration of how it works when the story I used in my illustration was actually a scenario he had found himself in a few days before. 

Her incredible is that, that young boy will never forget that lesson and nor will l.

The gifts of the spirit as recorded in the Bible are still functioning well in those that believe.

PANIC BUTTON PRESSED

 This happened to me on Sunday morning the 17 October 2021 at around 2am On Saturday the 16th October 2021, I awoke feeling not too great. Beautiful friends invited me to breakfast in Hillcrest and I literally ate as little as possible. Something was lurking around, I felt dreadful. Come lunchtime and another most incredible friend invites me to lunch  2am Sunday morning I am on my white throne and find myself actually passing out I had eaten something on Friday night which had progressively slowly taken me out I called for help from close neighbors to no avail  I was literally on my own, on my BIG WHITE TELEPHONE and passing out when suddenly the alarm panic button got pressed Nobody knows who pressed it, but it was at exactly the lifesaving crucial time I needed urgent help to drop my body temperature. Water-soaked towels were placed on my back and around my head.  How incredible is that!!   THE CHANCES OF THAT BUTTON BEING PRESSED AT THE EXACT TIME IS BE...

MURDERER ARRESTED "Turn Left"

This is what happened: I was on my way to work and as I got to the stop street at the bottom of our road I got this overpowering thought pattern "Turn Left" . I am gobsmacked ! It is the same overpowering thought pattern that I have experienced a few times before. I knew it was the Spirit of God, just not  this powerful. Stubbornly I was saying, no, I always turn right, it is the short route to work. The message in my head was so strong, I had to obey and follow through. So I turned left and wondered, "okay what’s going down today Jesus". As I drove along I see our local Security Company. They flagged me down. They  inform me of an attack on two young people in a home not far from where we were currently. Just after the parents had left the home the suspects had tried to  gain entry. They had been smashing the safety gates, trying to force the hinges out of the wall. The young people, aged around 18 and 15, brother and sister, were  screaming so much that a neig...

SURPRISE INCREASE

God is faithful So here is the short version of what happened Please note upfront: These stories are shared not to impress anyone, but rather to impress upon every one that Almighty God is alive and well One Sunday evening I was watching a Joyce Meyer message. I t was all about her mission work and the one orphanage here in Southern Africa. I felt led in my spirit man to set up a 1 year stop order of R200pm into that orphanage.  I jumped online and did exactly that.  The next day, Monday morning, my immediate manager walks into my office and sits down. He says hey Gav, I have noticed you are always available for call outs etc. I am increasing your salary by R2000 pm How great is our God (Please consider keeping this Blog active during these cataclysmic times of mudslides, family deaths, multiple spiritual attacks, and major loss of income.   paypal.me/gavinstone8  OR Nedbank, cheque, 1192643046, bcode 198765  sincerely appreciated)
