How has God worked in your life?

[Schrodinger's Hat]

There have been quite a few times in my life when I strongly suspected that God has tried to tell me something.For example,once I happened to find several stapled pieces of paper in my yard entitled,"The Commandments of Jesus,"and to this day I have no idea where they came from.This may not seem significant,but to me it really meant a lot.Several other "coincidences"have happened throughout my life as well.Anyway,I started this thread because I'd love to hear from any of you who have had miraculous thing happen in their lives.God bless you all.

Welcome Qwerty35

Great to see how you see God moving in your life and the signs that he gives! God has always been there for me and has shown me many signs and indications to what he has in store for me. Sometimes I don't see it or realize it even when it's right under my nose!

I have MANY testimonies that I have published online as they happen and they are still many more that I know I will be writing! I would like to share them with you for you to read, revealing how God was there in my life even when I was backed in the corner with so much evil and wrong been done upon me. I'll put a link here since I don't want to fill your topic with pages of pages of text Vision of Hell – Jesus Christ Saved Me « mysaviourjesus

He has shown me how he was there when my mind was clouded with pain, suffering and hurt. This lasted 30 years and God was there all the time because in my heart, he saw Love, compassion and forgiveness even when I was pushed beyond what any human being can cope with in this life!

But for the past two years I know and have seen him move in my life and has fulfilled many promises for me. Sometimes nothing happens for weeks or months but I am patient and wait with excitement because I know that he is working to bring me to the next step.

One thing I can say was that, I stumbled upon my old hard drive which was hidden away in my cupboard. I connected it up to my pc to see what was on it. I couldn't believe my eyes what I had found. A small jpg image similar to these...

Before I moved from London to Edinburgh during my parent’s separation, I was looking for this on the internet. I have no idea why, why on earth did I search for this question on how to be saved and enter Heaven? But this was because deep down this was going to be where I will be after all the turmoil that proceeded after this point!

I had no idea why but God knew, I had to go through it so that I will come to a point where I will confess to Jesus that he is my Lord and Saviour and then I was saved. Now that I found this image a few weeks ago, showed me that God was there all along and gave me these images to tell me what is planned for me.

I guess I was looking for away out, away out from been hurt by my parents, school, church, friends and this is probably why God lead me to find this. To tell me this is the only way to break free, to reveal to me that he loves me more than the world does.

Why he gave up his only Son to die for my sins so that I can have eternal life and to be with my father, my creator. But first I had to go through 10+ years of turmoil before I can get there. I'm glad I did where would I be if I didn't!

If only people would open their eyes and ears which have become blind and deaf by the things of this world, they can see that God is there and that he loves them and wants them to turn from their wickedness so they will not perish.

But today's world is full of distractions that keep people's eyes, hearts and minds fixed on the ground and living their dreams and living the Rich life thinking this is all I need.

How can they then hear and see God's signs and wonders or even hear his voice when he talks to them if they are busy with this world!

God Bless

Richard

Hi, I think we can see GODS work in our lives alot if we look for it, The HOLY SPIRIT moves in us to do all things if we are listening. Just resently I was at the hospitol with my daughter and I got this notion to call afriend from church that hadnt been there much lately. I didnt have his number on hand and I blew it off figured I was bored. I could have gotten the number if I had tried. Any way I get home with my daughter about a week later, go to church the following sunday and discover my friend had killed his self. I do believe I was being motivated by the HOLY SPIRIT and I didnt do what I was suppose to. I listen better now.

I want to share 2 things about what God has done in my life.

1. When i was in school, i was deep into the heavy metal scene (i still listen to the music but not as much) -- Well, at one point, it felt like God wanted me to delete that music bc i had it all stored on my computer -- had over 4,000 songs+ on my hard drive. So, i began going thru my songs/folders and i started deleting the songs. After I was about half way through deleting, this feeling of Deep Peace started to come over me (at that time, God was feeding/speaking to me thru my feelings when i was a baby christian) -- After I got done deleting i don't know how many songs, that deep peace grew and my whole body was filled w/ this peace -- it felt so comforting and good. I thanked God for the peace and i believe that feeling stayed w/ me for several hours before it started to fade away.

2. Again, when i was in school, i had another thing happen to me. I was taking this class called Divine Healing and the last day of class for the semester, the professor asked if anyone wanted prayer for healing -- well, i immediately stood up. I have a medical problem n i'm in pain literally 24/7. Anyways, prob like 6 students stood up so the prof had 4-6 kids surround each student and pray for them. Well, while my group was praying for me, i felt my legs beginning to tingle a little bit and they prayed for me for at least 10 min if not more. But, after they prayed, i stood up to go speak w/ the prof and he told me that when he looked over at my group, he could sense that something was happening/taking place. Well, let me tell you, that as i was walking back to my room that night, i began to run and guess what?!? i had no pain in my legs/feet at all. I began jumping up and down and nothing hurt me. I shared this story w/ a few of my good friends and told them what happened. Also, while I was still in class, God again gave me that super deep peace and that peace kept flowing up and down my legs -- that peace stayed there for an entire day -- i was soo happy -- i thought that God really healed me. But, then after that 1 day as i was in bed, i felt the peace leaving and i also felt the pain coming back. I prayed against it and prayed for the pain to go away again, but, since that day, it never again went away. However, to me, that day, God showed me that he is IN Control of my situation and problem and he can heal me if he wants to but, i guess he doesn't want to fully heal me of it yet?!?

That is amazing! I have something almost the same as this! My dad still downloads movies online and stores them on a digital media device to watch on his TV. I used to do the same thing, Although I have MANY, MANY proper copies of DVDs/ Blu-Ray films that I did buy but I also had downloaded films I use to store on my PC.

After I was saved, there came a point where I started to feel the need to delete all those illegal movies off my hardrive for good! I wanted to do it, but at the same time I put it off, like I'll do it tomorrow or later! At one point I wanted to format one of my spare drives but not knowing which drive I selected I formatted the drive with all the illegal movies on it!

Only realised after when I thought "Hold on... I formatted the wrong drive!!!" But I checked to see that it was the drive with all the movies I had stored on it and then I felt overjoyed, not sad that I lost some stuff on there that I didn't want to lose. But loosing those illegal downloaded movies was worth it!

I was so happy and I said "Thank you God! Thank you! You made me delete those movies when I kept making excuses not to do it right there and then!"

Sk8brdkd and MasterRich,I very much enjoyed reading both of your stories;it's always good to see how God still influences our lives.Plumbernater,that was a great story you told us about as well,and I'm sorry for what happened.Does anyone else have a story to share?

 

[sk8brdkd]

master rich -- thats a cool story too

i have one more story to add and this one is more recent then the other 2

my grandma passed away on march 11, suddenly -- she was 101 yrs old -- she led an amazing life!! -- no one was expecting that to happen, not even her. I had a very good relationship w/ her and we were close -- i loved her sooo much! Anyways, the Saturday night before she passed away, i went to the hospital to visit her and tho she was asleep, i spoke to her and held her hand and while i was speaking to her, i felt her hand squeeze mine, several times so, i think she knew i was there even tho she wasn't awake. Anyways, during those 3 days she was in the hospital, i felt "at peace" -- i initially thought it was God telling me that she was going to be ok and pull through this, however, after she passed away (that Sunday morning), i realize God gave me that inner peace to tell me that she is would be fine and although I did cry that day she passed away, i still had that peace and, after that initial day, i didn't cry anymore. It's not that i didn't miss her. Sure i do -- i loved her so much but, I think the holy spirit was working thru me and telling me that she was ready to go and that she's in a much better place now. A place that she was ready to go to for a long time. I had joked w/ her several weeks before she went into the hospital and said that whenever she gets to heaven, she has to take good care of my previous dog (Teddy) -- her response was, she would def take good care of him and give him a big hug n kiss for me -- that made me laugh but thinking back to it, makes my eyes fill w/ tears but, the holy spirit does work in mysterious ways sometimes -- sometimes u don't always understand how he is working until after the fact.

My grandma's life was filled w/ following jesus and she showed it in her thoughts/actions. She was a great christian role model for me. She loved everyone else more then herself. For her, Christ came first, everyone else came second and she came last. My mom even told me that the day they put her on the morphine drip, she prayed w/ my mom for ALL of her children/grandchildren/great great grandchildren and her great great great grandchilden and spoke each of them by name -- for me, that was an amazing testimony bc even tho she Knew she was dying, all that was on her mind was her family and uplifting them in prayer. How cool is that?!? I wish she was still alive tho -- i miss her -- this house isn't the same w/o her laughter!

That was a great story,and I'm very sorry for your loss.Just remember,though(although it seems like you realize this anyway),that your grandmother is now in a place where she will never experience any pain or unhappiness.God bless you.
