Prophecy
I was asked to pray at the beginning of a worship service at a church where I was a member and I said that I am glad to be with the people there because the people are the church no matter where we meet. I don’t often say that but usually say “I’m glad to be here” and said what I said to emphasize that the place is not so important, but whom I am with. And it turns out that, unknown to me, the trustees of the church would inform the congregation during that service that they had been approached by a neighbor and had been offered the opportunity to sell the property of the land/building. My friend chuckled with me afterwards and assured me of his opinion that that must have been God speaking through me. - I only share this one here in this article :)
A man who is barely an acquaintance sees me at a coffee shop and offers me advice that God uses to very specifically convict me of a sin that I have no way of knowing how he would know about it. His advice is very specific and pertinent. Yet I barely know him. An experience much like you can read about concerning the demon in “The One With All Authority…” article. But I figure this man was prophesying because he could share with me about his faith in Jesus. He says since he had a head injury he is quite aware of spiritual things and wanted to talk to me that day. Well, what he said helped, even if it wasn’t easy to hear. I did see him around a few times later but never had a long conversation with him again. I should have. But I was young and kind of wary after the first conversation though I shouldn’t have been and am quite thankful now. - I only share this one here in this article :)
Answered Prayer
I prayed what a Mormon asked me to pray and asked God if I was His child. No immediate answer. The next morning, as I recalled the prayer, I prayed it again and in my mind God spoke “Ephesians 1.” I immediately read the chapter and find a clear answer to the question that distinguishes Christian doctrine from Mormon - in “Doctrinal Exclusivity and Why Christianity Offers more Hope than Mormonism” in the “My Posts” section
While teaching youth about prayer at a summer camp, an understaffed work group of youth prays for God to help us with our week left of a heavy load of chores at camp and another youth unexpectedly arrives in the middle of the session a few days later - in “Answered Prayers and Why Christianity offers Hope even when we don’t get the Answer We Expected” in the “My Posts” section
While with a group of college students about to do evangelism on campus, I sense God wants me to boldly pray, in a way that I can’t recall every doing before, that God saves someone that very day, and He does, the only conversion in that particular semester that would include about 60 man-hours of evangelism on campus during 6 events - in “Answered Prayers and Why Christianity offers Hope even when we don’t get the Answer We Expected” in the “My Posts” section
