Strange and Unfamiliar chapter in My life..

[Lost Witness]

Entering into a Strange an Unfamiliar chapter in life.
In the physical world I've had one dependency as a man most of my adult life.
The Lord Has taken Her out of my life..
The Door that was open for a place to live locally closed Shortly Before hand as well..
Have purchased a ticket to an undisclosed location and while at the store waiting in line to put the money on the card.. noticed my cellphone was warm so I pulled it out of my pocket and the camera was on..
The very bottom corner I noticed the image of A lion that has Joshua 1:9 on it.
For a few weeks prior I kept seeing different verses saying the same thing.
Brothers from my local church in which I have attended dont want me to go.
Feels very clearly as though I should.. prayed over this many times and so far the urge to go hasn't changed.
No in fact now people are giving me means to afford food once I reach my destination as unemployed and homeless currently.
Just can't help but feel like this has to happen.

Is this a sign from God or something? I will pray for you, that God can help you through these changes in life. If possible, can you upload a photo of the Lion and the verse(s) to this thread? Folks on the forum might be able to help you with this one.

Joshua 1:9 (NIV): "Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged, for the Lord your God will be with you wherever you go."

Explanation: Joshua 1:9 is a command from God to Joshua, as he was about to lead the Israelites into the Promised Land after the death of Moses. The verse emphasizes the importance of being strong and courageous, and not being frightened or dismayed despite the challenges they would face. God reassures Joshua that He will be with them wherever they go, providing comfort and guidance in the midst of uncertainty.

The Lord Spoke Psalms 121:8 over my life when he brought me back as I'm a prodigal Son..
When he first saved me he confirmed it using the Prodigal Son scene from Jesus Of Nazareth...
So Yes.
The Good Shepard takes care of his sheep

Amen to this. God takes care of his people. Looks like I should add this Psalm to my future devotional.


Psalm 121:7-8 "The Lord will keep you from all harm—he will watch over your life; the Lord will watch over your coming and going both now and forevermore."

can you upload a photo of the Lion and the verse(s) to this thread?

Just shared it because it's a beautiful photo and the verse fits it

Amen to this. So, this verse appeared out of the blue for you?

The photo ended up on my phone as I had looked it up once I saw a suggested friends pfp was Joshua 1:9 around the time I started really praying over leaving.
See everything in my life suddenly shutdown.
Haven't found employment, the one person I had relied on for a decade suddenly had to go home due to her mother's health and legal matters.
She left most of her stuff behind because she couldn't take it and she felt in her heart it was the Lord's will she returned home to take care of her mom and her legal matters..
Had been praying Lord be it you want me to stay open a door.
The one door I had to remain closed as the person who was going to take me in for a time was led to help another person instead...
Later on when I went to put the money on the Card as I stated it was the image displayed in the lower corner.
It wasn't the most recent photo nor was it a photo I had took with the camera...

It is strange how an image from somewhat deep within your phone popped up in the lower corner of the screen when you were putting money on your card. Prayers for you and the person you relied on.

Appreciate the prayers.
Ik the Lord is very intentional.
There are no accidents or coincidences.

You are welcome. Also, as your suggested friend's profile picture is/was of Joshua 1:9, you might want to talk to him/her. Maybe that is God telling you that he is going through something.

@Lost Witness , just double checking on you brother. Is everything going better for you, and for the person that you knew. Is her mother's health and her own legal matters getting resolved?


Made a devotional with Psalm 121:7-8. Hopefully it helps
