“So instead of being negative and allowing your circumstance to dictate your life. Turn it around and kick your shoes off and instead of fleeing from your affliction, start feasting on your affliction.” by Apostle Bobby Torres
This has always been me. When the fire gets hot, I’ve always wanted to go. This was the case in my marriage for the past three weeks.
My heart was cold, hard, and negative words regurgitated from my lips. I was like a spewing fountain with nothing positive to say. I had planned on leaving and divorcing my husband and. I felt that all my reasons were justifiable and right. And, he finally knew it.
But on the inside, I was crying out to the God of marriages, healing, and restoration. I knew that if anyone could change the current situation, my God could! For this time, the majority of the problem wasn't him--it was me.
Psa 50:15 “And call upon me in the day of trouble: I will deliver thee, and thou shalt glorify me.”
He promised to deliver me. I was trusting Him to do so, cuz this was a matter that only He could handle. I felt I was losing and I was desperate.
Psa 145:18 “The LORD is nigh unto all them that call upon him, to all that call upon him in truth.”
I have found that in the midst of the fiery furnace, if I would be humble and be truthful, crying out to God for His salvation, He is a faithful, tender merciful God. I think we get into lots of trouble when we feel like we can handle it ourselves. We mess up, when we won’t wait on the Lord and, instead, trust in the arm of flesh.
Isa 40:30-31: “30Even the youths shall faint and be weary, and the young men shall utterly fall:
31But they that wait upon the LORD shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; and they shall walk, and not faint.
Trials will come. Tribulations must take place. But they aren't easy. Sometimes, there are no words to say; there are no people who, without the Holy Ghost that will understand. Shux! Even you don’t understand why you’re going through that crazy trial sometimes. There is only your spirit man that can cry out to God. I am a witness, He (God) can and will hear your faintest cry!
And that is exactly what has happened. Yesterday, God brought the most powerful breakthrough that I have experienced in a long, long time. The Lord began to melt my cold, stony, heart like a ball of wax in his presence. Repentance and healing took place in this home, and once again, the devil has been defeated and my God has been exalted. (which is what I love to do!)

Hi, Sharonda,it's me, Pastor Tommi. I have been thinking about you and praying for you. One of the reasons is it will soon be National Day of Prayer and you were the first person to tell me about it. We miss you and love you. My email is the same, let me know how you are.
