Deliver Me Softly
TRUST

The Father is so awesome. When you draw close and get to know His heart and his voice, it feels like such a privilege to be with Him and the revelation he shares. I am just... in love!
When revelations come it is such a beautiful moment. But I love it when he goes even a step farther and takes a handful of revelations and connects them into a lesson.
A few months ago one of my sons came down with a mystery illness (most likely strep something). As a mom you might know that feeling that rises, like a knot in your stomach, when it starts to become apparent that your children really are ill.
I hated it, but I had become good at suppressing it. Although it was constantly simmering under the surface and had a significant impact on how I cared for my children, it felt like something I couldn't totally turn off even in wanting to.
I began fasting when it started and stayed fasted for a couple days. No matter what I said I was doing it out of the real (and maybe secret reason) of fear. Fear of what would happen, who else might get it, just fear of the unknown mixed with hating that I could only do so much for their comfort when there is so often the need to just ride it out.
Then as I was sitting in the shade of our yard in a rocking camping chair, reading, watching my other children play, whispering cries to the Father. Then he revealed to me that in this area I was not trusting him and so fear was able to linger.
This revelation broke my heart, because I DO trust him, I thought I was trusting him. With the help of a sweet sister in Christ, I was able to see it, repent it and ask for freedom. There was no screaming, no thrashing, just gentle quiet.
Even though I started to fast out of fear, my good good Father honored that fast and met me where I was at.
I really only knew that I was delivered later on. Because that first internal response of fear I always had, is now gone. The knot in my stomach, the slow but steady feeling of anxiety or my pulse rising. A gentle simmering panic of 'what do I do' all of it, gone.
An unexpected side effect is that good quality olive oil, smells like a subtly sweet perfume. When any time previous it has only smelt dull and heavy.
Moving forward over the last few months I have felt a strong leading to anoint the corners of our property. I had anointed our home but nothing beyond yet. I finally anointed our property maybe a week or 2 ago.
I was not doubtful of the Fathers protection but I did wonder to myself what type of protection is it. Is it it just spiritual? But these were never utterances out loud, simply wonderings.
Fast forward to last night there was an intense storm, this storm was not only loud but ominous, it was sitting right over us. One loud strike woke both me and my husband... the shock sent him out of bed to check the house with an air of fear. I stayed put and the holy spirit reminded me I fell asleep without my usual bedtime prayers. I didn't feel fear but I heard clear as anything in my spirit simply "pray."
So, I prayed. My usual type prayer for a firmament of protection over our home and property with a fiery hedge, and that he would set his warrior angels to guard it. That the Holy Spirit would fill our home from the tip of the roof to the ground below and every space between, burning up unclean spirits and bringing ministering angels of rest, peace and healing. In the mighty name of Yeshua my king amen amen amen.
As we lay and listen over about 15 to 20 minutes there were several strikes, all sounding nearby. So loud that we could feel the ground and walls shake. By Abba's grace the children slept undisturbed. Then it happened there was a draw of energy so hard the power went out for a moment just before what sounded like an explosion right outside the house in the front yard.
After that, there were maybe a couple more strikes around but really, the storm just left.
When we got up in the morning I had a strong leading to go outside and check for damage.
In the front corner of our property there is a huge old pine tree with branches that hang over the road and branches that hang over the neighboring property. This tree was struck on that side and a few branches are hanging but still attached to the tree. The damage is rather minimal compared to what you would think.
Even after I still had a strong leading to look for more damage. While riding to take my husband to work, down the street we passed a house that was absolutely destroyed. It looked like lightning struck it right in the middle and the whole roof caved in and burned and the front door was even half open, burst open with the blast. Utter devastation on this house.
As soon as I saw it I knew it was the Father showing me a proof of His protection over us.
The tree that was struck, if it had fallen there is a high chance it could have fallen on our house and even if part of the tree had fallen on the house... my children's bedrooms are closest to it positioned at the front of the house.
Be blessed, brothers and sisters, the King is Alive!
