June 20, 2018! --------- What
an AWESOME GOD we serve!
Today I headed out
for my prayer walk…going over stuff in my head…”which way should I go
today…feeling a few raindrops…should I go back for my umbrella…???”
First off, I never take my visa.
It was on the table last night and I felt the Spirit telling me to take
it today. I was actually having a
conversation with HIM saying, I don’t want to buy anything to eat and I don’t
want to carry any packages back on foot!
This flesh is something! Lol
And the journey
begins. I followed a 16 year girl to
work and shared the gospel with her. She
and her grandmother attended Saint…something…I don’t remember, but they don’t
use the bible and I could tell that she wasn’t really interested. But HIS Word will not return void and we
shall STOP and PRAISE HIM FOR THAT PROMISE!
Next, walking and reminding the Lord that I’m now headed back to dad’s and
nothing yet…Lol
He led me Sean who was 20 and waiting at the bus stop. He said he grew up in the church and he’s
known God since he was little. I shared
the GOSPEL of Jesus Christ and asked him to pray about entering into a
“relationship” with the Lord and making his own statement of FAITH! We had a yummy talk and he was so appreciative! GOD will do a work in his heart for
sure! And the best for last. I saw “Leroy” a homeless man. I asked if he wouldn’t mind sharing his
story. He did. Sadly, lots of abuse in
his youth. I asked him if I could buy
him a meal, (the reason GOD said to take my visa). He was so delighted. After coming back out … he was running across
the street to meet me and get the food.
I smiled and said, “Let’s go back over where you were sitting, I’d like
to talk to you about something.” He
agreed. He allowed me to pray over our meal. I started talking about my FAITH
and asking if he knew the Lord. He said
no. He did not believe in God. I kinda knew that would be his response because
of his past. I shared God’s plan of
salvation and I even told him that GOD is a God to the Fatherless and if he
would be willing to take a step of FAITH…even asking GOD to reveal Himself to
him, that GOD would do it. LISTEN TO
THIS: DURING rush hour traffic…a truck
is at the red light. At this moment in
TIME, HIS PERFECT TIMING…no other cars and no other people. A gentle voice says from the drivers’s
seat: “Listen to her, she’s right!” I looked over and the driver was listening. I mean the guy didn’t even have to raise his
voice or yell from the window! He heard me
and told Leroy “Listen she’s telling you the truth! I cried and said, “GOD sent me here from
North Beach, Md., to talk to you Leroy and Jeff just confirmed it.” Leroy started to tear up. He used his shirt to wipe his tears. He did not make a decision, but he’s never
going to forget that Denise told him about GOD being a Father and using Jeff, a
complete stranger at the red light to confirm our conversation! I told Leroy that I loved him and that I know
deep down inside he has been longing for love and acceptance. I told him I used to also. I shared that the Lord will never stop
pursing him! HE thanked me, and I
BELIEVE that the HOLY SPIRIT will exchange Leroy’s heart and give him a NEW
one!
Talked with
Maxine. I was calling to tell her that
I’d like to have coffee or tea when she is able. She went on to say some things about waiting
on the Lord still and that she thought I’d be the WORD for her this past Sunday. I reminded her of some of what I shared and prayed over her in
the ACME but because of the noise, she was probably a little distracted. I told her that there was a long period of
silence from Malachi to Matthew…that the Israelites waiting much longer that
she did and that King David was called in his youth but did not get the crown
until 13 years or so later and not to mention how long Joseph was in jail….we
were having church right there on the cell phone…NOTHING BUT THE HOLY SPIRIT!
Then my newest little sweet, firecracker brother Steven called. He’d called by mistake, but we had
fellowship. OH Yes we did. He was doing God’s work and missed his
bus. After speaking with the lady and
her daughter that God put in his path about being aware of false preachers and teachers, the lady gave
him a ride! GOD YOU REIGN! Give Steven favor in his interview and I pray
even now, that Kelly’s hearing went in her favor from yesterday’s meeting. YOU ARE GOOD even when we cannot see good in
the moment. Thank YOU for being with
Alex last night when I was unable. Thank
You for the MSG Version!

June 19, 2018! -------------WOW AGAIN GOD! I rolled out of bed so
ready for my prayer walk. It looked like
it had stopped raining so off I go downstairs and out the door. It was still raining. So (I decided) I would walk the halls instead. My dad’s building is a High-rise with 13
flights and in the winter, I walk inside.
The HOLY SPIRIT said, “get your umbrella." I listened and began walking…looking for God
moments! I saw this girl…those men…that
girl…and then stopped at McDonald’s (to powder my nose…lol) and when I came
out, the Holy Spirit said, “That one over there, at the bus stop. I listened and walked in her direction. LONG Story short…she was sad-face and looked discouraged. I introduced myself and shared a bit of my
story and told her about the LOVE, GRACE and FORGIVENESS of the Lord Jesus
Christ. Her eyes were so tender and ears
so attentive. I asked her had she ever
hear anything of “this before.” She
nodded, no. She was 21 and I said, “When
I was your age, I wished someone had told me about the Gospel of Jesus Christ!” I asked her she wanted to know HIM and become
HIS. She said, “Yes.” I asked if we
could sit for a moment and if she’d be willing to confess her sins and
acknowledge that He died for them. She
did. And afterwards, we prayed, and she
received Him! CHURCH I wish you could
have seen the look on her face when I first walked up to her compared to the
THE GLOW that was instantaneous upon RECEIVEING Him! I saw it with my own eyes. I said, “You can’t see it but you’re
glowing.” She said, “I feel different! I told her, it’s just the beginning! We
talked for a few more moments and hugged goodbye just as the BUS ARRIVED! J Look at God’s Perfect Timing!
TO GOD BE THE GLORY!
THANK You JESUS for Julia’s response.
She was looking for YOU and didn’t know it! FATHER GOD, cultivate a relationship with her
and as she opens the bible, may Your Holy Spirit give her wisdom and
understating, growing her in the knowledge of YOUR Character! In Jesus’ name, amen!
Also met Rosemary and Ron waiting on the bus! They know YOU Lord. Rosemary used to sing in the church
choir. I asked her to sing and she
didn’t feel comfortable, so I asked her favorite song. She said, "OUR GOD IS AN AWESOME GOD" and Ron
started singing it. We had sweet
fellowship, right there at the bus stop.
Later, I ran into James and Jaime.
They are looking to get a place together. LORD YOUR WILL. Jaime had one testimony after another about YOUR GOODNESS and MERCY in
her life! We prayed right there on the
sidewalk opposite the library!

June 18, 2018! Prayer walk!!! WOWOWOWOWOWOWOWOWOWOWOWOWOWOWOWOWOW
Fellowship with Chet first thing! Prayed for Roberta. She had on a McDonald’s uniform and had just
dropped something in the mailbox. I
waited for her. She is a Christian and
there was a shooting in her neighborhood last night.
No one was hurt, but she asked for prayer!
I then wanted to wash my hands and potty. DEVINE APPOINTMENT, AGAIN! Kelly, a woman that I did not know, called out to me and asked if I walk
everyday…GOSPEL Opportunity….I told her I was doing a prayer walk and she said,
“What’s that?!” I asked if she had prayer
or I think she asked if I could pray for her.
I asked her to pull into the parking space because “I knew it would not
be brief.” LOL
NOTHING BUT YOU LORD!
Earlier, Chet gave me a bracelet with crosses going all around it. He told me to pass it forward. He said, “Maybe your new friend. The Spirit will tell you who.” God YOU know I can still be #selfish. I wanted to keep it and wear it for a
while. THE SPIRIT told me to give it to
Kelly. I laughed because I didn’t even
get to wear it back to the apt. Lol
NOTHING BUT GOD.
Left at 0730 and returned home at 1100.

June 16, 2018… … …NOTHING BUT A YUMMY DAY! Yesterday’s AMAZING GRACE! I just absolutely love the LORD! He is so attentive and I’m leaning in…
I was so proud of “myself” for driving up until 3pm without
eating and pigging out on the road! Lo…but then I kinda, sorta got hungry. Decision, decisions, decisions! Convenience store with unbelievably healthy
choices…nope! Quizno’s…nope! Panera…nope!
Now…Chick-fil-a or Wendy’s…..I don’t need another milkshake…I do but I
don’t. Lol…so Wendy’s it is. OH YES THE LORD ANSERWED MY PRAYERS
CONCERNING DIVINE APPOINTMENTS AND THANK YOU FOR THOSE WHO PRAYED THE SAME!!!
I walked out of the restroom and two young employees were
changing the trash bags. One asked if he
could ask me a question about “defending yourself.” I said, “If I answer your question, will you
answer mine?” We agreed. After talking about the working relationship
with his coworkers…I asked him about his relationship with the Lord. He shared some sad news regarding members of his family.... I leaned in listening and extending condolences
and compassion. I walked with him out to
the trash dumpster and gently told Him about God’s grace and mercy. He asked if he would have to stop smoking weed if he became a Christian? I told him how I used to drink and then by
the Power of the Holy Spirit, lost the desire. His coworker was leaning and listening. I told them about the possibility of not
seeing the end of this day if they were to get off work and by unfortunate circumstances,
get hit by a truck! “Would you go to heaven?”
Neither knew and I began to share the gospel. We continued to talk, walking back into
Wendy’s.
THERE were NO customers and I
continued talking with them and they continued listening and so did their
coworkers, Brittney and Julia. I told
them that the Lord sent me from North Beach, Md., to tell them about His plan
of Salvation. I shared some of the
mistakes I made at their age and how HIS Grace Saved me and forgave me. The two girls were believers, but one was estranged
from God and said she needed to come back to him. The other was tearing up…Abraham was still
questioning me and lo’ and behold, in walks Steven. His wife was in the eating area and overheard
me talking and told him that I was a Christian.
He walked up and joined the conversation. He is a 19-year-old ON FIRE FOR THE LORD! He used to smoke weed all the time and his
mom kept interceding for his life. He
gave his life to Jesus last year and God convicted him. He stopped smoking and married his
girlfriend.
IT was absolutely the HAND
of God all over our uninterrupted time together. We
talked and talked and prayed and it was all consuming, ALL about the LORD! I was off the grid for over 3 hours and had
no idea. My dad texted looking for me.
LOL… END result, Tiriq hugged and thanked me. I pray for Abraham's soul. I pray that Brittney will return to the
Lord, she’s 20. I pray that Steven will keep his fervor. He went to a church and
the Holy Spirit in him could not be contained and the church was telling him
indirectly to tone it down. He was
discouraged. He and his wife are sweet aromas of Christ in need of strong Christians to
come alongside them. MAY THESES SEEDS
BARE FRUIT FOR Your Kingdom and may HIS SPIRIT do only what HE can! TO GOD BE THE GLORY!!!!! LORD continue in
Your will to set aside my flesh and GLORIFY Your Son! In Jesus name!
