In April, I saw a video from a young minister talking about Naomi and Ruth. Her video was to encourage people not to let bitterness grip us, but to walk in love…and her example was about Naomi and Ruth. This was on April 23. For some reason… I read and posted the story of Ruth and Naomi because I felt I was missing something greater, even though I commented on her video that “I need this right now”. Like with all the lessons of the Bible, the application and correction from each story can be applied to our lives in levels. For example, if you read the story and just take it on the surface meaning, you will get a wonderful story of how these two women overcame tremendous odds together and were blessed of the Lord, but a deeper meaning can also be applied that Naomi is like Israel and Ruth is like the Church and the relationship between these two women is a foreshadowing of things to come regarding the Church and Israel. Either lesson will grow you up spiritually, but in order to grab a hold of the deeper meaning, you need a foundation of the word of God and how God works and deals with his people.

We just got out of the 21-day fast and prayer for Israel. I feel so blessed to have been a part of this fast…. my spirit knows that this event was one of the most powerful events in the history of the Church and Israel’s relationship…. like I fully expect that in all of eternity this fast will be remembered as a turning point. I posted about it… just sharing my thoughts about it, but looking at it now, it was a prophecy. I have never prophesized before, so I’m guessing I didn’t recognize what I said for what it was. I say that because another person posted a video this morning giving a prophecy that was in harmony with my post and went further with what he was sharing (he’s way more mature in the Lord than I am, God grows us where we are planted ) Anyway… in his video he sighted some bible chapters for us to meditate on, so I have my plans now to do just that. I’m so thankful to God for showing this to me…. and to my bestie Wanda for making sure I saw the video.

100 million people completed this fast. I was wondering how many came too fast and the last number I saw was 100 million! WOW! Glory be to God!

At the end of the 21 days my thought was first , “What now?” and then the response from my spirit was “wait” and again I remembered the instructions to continue to pray for Israel. I know there are some other things we need to pray about now, but I don’t know what those things are just yet…. it’s like my spirit man is waiting for instructions or something.

The video of the man giving a word lined up with what my spirit was feeling, I will wait on the Lord. But there is something HUGE on the horizon.
