i buying an umbrella tomorrow. a nice big one. 72" like the one i left with anna in virginia.
no, really. why? it wasn't raining. in fact, it was a beautiful spring day at the end of january. yeah. it was weird.
so, i'm buying an umbrella tomorrow.
um, my spirit told me i needed one. yeah, ok, i hear ya. i'm weird. no, actually, i'm not.
my bible says to ask the Lord of the harvest for rain in the time for rain.
it's winter. that means it's time for snow- not rain.
yes... and no...
i'm buying an umbrella tomorrow because its a prophetic act.
something happened at walmart today that rocked my world. let me see if i can describe it to you...
i was nearing the end of my shift (as a cashier) and this woman came up and started loading her items on the belt. i looked at her, noticed that she kept her left arm tucked really close to her body. i asked her if she had had a stroke recently.
two months ago. ok. that's recently.
[not a good enough reason to constitute an umbrella? ok then.]
so i rang up all of her items and then she paid with her credit card. after i loaded everything into her cart, she thanked me and started to walk away (ok, it was more of a half-walk, half-drag) and i thought: you idiot, you should have prayed for her...
i wanted to say, "ma'am wait! come back..." but i heard myself say, "Susan!"
she sort of half turned and looked at me kinda dumbfounded and i commanded her body to be made whole in Jesus' name. [yeah, this was in front of everyone at walmart.]
she kind of shook her head and then started to walk away... normal... she took four steps, realized something different and turned her cart around and looked at me with large eyes and sort of terrified, and asked... "what did you do to me?"
i told her i didn't. Jesus healed her.
y'all, she paid with a credit card. i didn't see a name on a check or a signature on a receipt. she swiped the card herself and signed the computer.
oh. and then there's the funny part... the reaction of the people who saw it happen...
the next person in my line started to put their things back into her cart so she could go to another lane cause she didn't know what she had just seen.
so. i'm buying an umbrella. it's gonna rain.

what do i attribute it to?
well, a couple of things.
first, i actually started to believe what i said i believed.
second, i realized that i believed that the whole Bible was true and inerrant and completely applicable to today.
third, i scrapped everything i learned over the last 7 years about prayer.
and fourth, i just gave up. i realized that i needed to simply step and walk out my faith.
let me also say, i got sick of hearing testimonies and wanted to live them.
i wish to express that i am not the only seeing God move here. that others are seeing people healed from cancers and diseases. i am simply blessed in that i am stepping out on what the Word of God says and i'm seeing that He honors His Word.
