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.

HIJACKERS ARRESTED

  This is what happened: We live in the most beautiful country filled with amazing people. However, as is currently being witnessed globally, there is a minority of rotten  ungodly self-centered citizens who are bent on destroying and breaking down the peaceful lifestyle we enjoy. So sadly during these times of  unrest and increased crime in our cities, we have naturally raised our awareness and resistance towards the criminal elements At time of writing about this particular incident we get info of wanted criminals and their location, in our area. This info led to a  group of motivated NHW patrollers and an armed police reservist to go out and search. That night, as we did our patrols as  neighborhood watch, we spotted the vehicle, and as we follow them, they slip away! Very frustrating, but now that I look back I believe  God allowed it so as to protect us.  We gave up looking further and went home around midnight. In my heart, my consistent heart's...

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...

Chauffeur for an African Wedding, Oh what a day :-)

  (S8) Every day with Jesus series ( What a joll  ) Chauffeur for an African Wedding ...Oh what a day GOD wants your availability, not your ability. Just be present and available, you don't even have to speak. Shocking statement?? well here is the truth of what happened one day I was asked to be the Chauffeur at an African Wedding. An African Pastor, Pastor Johannes ( whom I saw on 31.12.2020 ), whom I had done some short term missionary outreaches with, requested I use our Honda Ballard for the wedding. We agreed and on the day, a Saturday, I pitched up at Hillcrest Christian Fellowship Church with the Honda glowing from all the polish, white ribbons over the front bonnet, etc. I was told the wedding was to start at 10am. I was there at 9am, ready and waiting. I was thinking "I can do this, I can do this !!! " Well by 10am people had started gathering, but mmmm, no sign or Bride or groom, etc, so I started asking around. Oh Boy, I found out, the bride was stuck down ...
