In January 2017, I had an encounter with God in a dream. In that dream, as some of you know, He called me to a place which later discovered to be the BSSM. In this encounter, I heard Holy Spirit and He answered some questions I had made Him, also I saw my husband there for the very first time.
One of the last informations I had was a name that was in a huge necklace, full of precious jewels/stones, and next to the name three steps of a woodcutter. First it was starting to prune the tree, in the second it was already in the half and, finally, the whole pruned tree.
What can I say about a dream given by God that I’m watching to happen?
It’s impossible to don’t be amazed by God. The way He sign His name in my life is nothing but wonderful! He is presenting Himself and the way He likes to work in my heart.
Since I’m walking through the door of my 29th years old, I’m meditating what He is doing since we start to walk together, and I notice that He was never far from me even before I made my commitment to Jesus.
Today, I was at school and during worship I just watched all those people around me, they were burning, worshiping and expressing their love for Jesus. I asked myself, is this revival? That’s what we mean revival?
Very wise and participative, Holy Spirit answered me that revival comes when our hearts are truly headed to Jesus. Then He spoke about Azuza’s revival, the hearts where deeply and intense crying out for Jesus. The purity of the hearts that are wielded to Jesus.
Where is my heart, Jesus?
Even living in a supernatural life, we still human and the journey of God pruning me is still happening. I found myself worried about what I need instead to find my heart wielded and surrendered to Jesus. So, I simple tough: “Holy, my heart is right now looking to things I need, but I honestly want to come back to the place of rest, I want my heart in Jesus. Not just because I want to be revival, but because I want Jesus”.
Have times in our lives that even when we are living the accomplishment of promises and dreams, we still breathing hard and it is ok, because God is not worried or mad with our process of learning. The goal is to recognize this, because it just affect us, He still patient waiting us to walk one more mile!
I’m someone that truly believe and live miracles every day, that real, this is the truth. But, as the disciples in the storm, I still need to grow in faith and trust. I need to learn how to rest even when the hormones of pregnancy try to control my feelings, because I don’t walk by feelings or emotions, but by faith, through Jesus Christ.
In my second year of pruning (during this season of 3 years God gave me), I can say that it has been painful but, beautiful and honestly amazing. Nor even one day I doubt that He will come, even though I got worried in “What should I do for help”, what I’m just understanding that the best is rest and wait, taste and see.
Pruning is uncomfortable, is challenging, but in the middle of the way He still sending you your favorite flowers, just to remember that it will end and it will be good.
Happy Birthday Amanda!
If he is pruning it means also that the roots are growing and the tree will grow, will have fruits, the tree is receiving treatment for what is not good.
So, happy birthday to me! Happy birthday to my process, that is so amazing, pure and worthy. I’m in this process for a reason, and no reason can be better that become closer to Jesus, to build a family, to grow in His ways.
I’m thankful, because nothing is impossible to God and His love never ends.
