Shirley Weaver wants to take you and now yesterday's episode talking to people understand that many of us have the same experience. God has lived in our lives over the years so powerfully in such demonstrative ways that we don't always recall it. Don't talk about it, share it. The psalmist said to bless the Lord, and don't forget those things that he forgave my sin, my iniquities, he healed my disease and he redeemed my life from destruction, just to name a few coming that's just the beginning right. But over time we have an experience with God that includes design interventions, supernatural outcomes and we need to mentally note those speak of those share those with the children and the grandchildren and are met so that the family is made aware that we are serving this powerful supernatural God and I believe that the maturity of the church. The maturity of the body of Christ is invested right there that that's what maturity looks like that we have evidence of this Almighty God that we worship and serve great great great deliverance comes from the hand of Almighty God. He alone delivers us from infirmities and issues as he did at the Red Sea for those who were fleeing the Egyptians, the Hebrew people were between a rock and a hard place. I know this is a favorite Bible story for everyone. Actually, for those that don't even know God or believe him.

They know the story, but for me that that is my experience that is my testimony he has delivered me again and again one experience specifically probably a lifelong ongoing ordeal with sort of chronic pain, lower back pain and there are lots of reasons.

Lots of causes for that kind of expression of pain but I think back to the days when as a kid, I didn't really exercise good judgment and watching for the care of my physical body. When it came to bumps and knocks and falls that kind of thing. I'm sure I'm not unusual but especially for a girl in our culture probably just a little bit rough-and-tumble anyway. Fast-forward to adulthood and you know that chronic pain was very real and I endured that even with the revelation of healing.

I mean even with the revelation of God's healing bore and endured that sort of like you know it was a given, but then I really learned a lot about God's word and spent some time invested some time listening and learning and realizing that that was not necessarily the the end of the story and that I could believe. Beyond that, and there was an altar call in a service that I attended and the one who was speaking administered all over the world. Basically a missionary at heart had seen really serious suffering real deformity and long time agony and as this person spoke, you know my heart expanded to realize that he was the person who had demonstrated God's power in the midst of really impossible circumstances and it was really on that note, and this was not intentional.

I have to tell you this was not intentional but I think it was the spirit of God, who was behind what I'm about to tell you is the altar call was given. Obviously, not for salvation. Almost everyone in that room in that building knew the Lord had come to hear someone with an amazing history with the Lord and the invitation was actually for those who needed the same kind of deliverance that had been shared from places around the world impossible cases and I found myself walking toward the front where does who had the same unction from the Lord were and where this really gentle giant of a person waited to pray for each of us. I plan to talk with you more about this at another time, but I just want to tell you something under the prompting of the spirit of the Lord and really with a knowing of God's love in his heart of compassion for me as I stood there waiting for this person to pray for me. I was completely I guess humble is the right word like what am I going to say what will I say now that I'm here because again it was the Lord who moved me you probably experience that to anyway. This question came to me what is it that you're asking of God today what is it that you're asking of God today and I didn't really express my response is a question actually.

I made a statement and I said I described what I viewed to be the issue with just a little elaboration. Honestly there was no room to talk a lot. Have you noticed that usually in God's presence there isn't room to talk a lot. He just has the preeminence right it's of this wonderful person just put little fingers.

I think it might've been the middle finger and the index finger just write all my four head softly and really took authority over the spirit of infirmity that was the source. The calls, the trouble of Israel. The trouble behind what I experienced again over many years and then just ask God to bless and heal my body and that was it. That was all.

And as I stood there completely taken into the presence of the Lord in the good in his goodness, his love, his sweetness as I experience that just standing there.

Not really even thinking anything would happen. Something did and it was similar to I've described it this way before. To my children and our family.

It was very similar to the effect of a function technology function wherewith where you can click and drag.

Click on an item and drag to move in place that item somewhere else that happened and that click move the presence of that infirmity off to the side like a shadow really I'm just telling you what happened like a shadow. It moved and I realize that had happened and that image of me moved further and further away and then dissipated it a evaporated and has us was there.

I realize the pain was gone. Excruciating multiple years of excruciating pain. It was gone and so eventually I went returned to my seat sat down with friends who hardly noticed that I had even been gone. That's how remarkable this was.

It was carved out for me it was divine it was intentional and it was the Lord no one else. This wonderful Christian speaker was God's agent. His minister of life, but I knew who touched me that day and that affect that healing, deliverance, and that magnified sense of who God really is has never decreased one iota. But I find myself always increasing and that memory when I ponder and think what the psalmist said in Psalm 103. Bless the Lord my soul. Bless the Lord, don't forget this. Don't ever, ever, ever forget this. He made known his ways to Moses but he gave me and the children of Israel. His acts, his acts, he made known to me that day so not sure the origin you've probably heard this chorus or the slow song. Not sure where it originates from. It goes like this. He hailed my body. He touched my mind.

He saved me just in time, and it goes zone to remarkably note the benefits that the psalmist said don't forget does he heal my body. He touched my mind. He saved me just in time.

I'm going to praise his name. Well, he's a good guy and he is not pent up are limited in any way any level.

Please don't ever think that he is he is good and his mercy endures for ever throughout eternity. A man bless you today. Don't forget this. Forget this testimony, he did this for me. He will do this for you.
