And I experienced a very grim vision of people who are headed for hell, where the Holy Spirit impressed upon my heart the need to pray for people so they would repent of evil-doing and come to the Lord.
Take it for what you will. I never have visions like that, but when this one came upon me, it came all of a sudden and it was very dark and grim -- I knew instantly, knowing in my spirit, knowing without having to hear the words -- that I was to pray for people so that they would repent of actions that grieve the Lord and come to Him in repentance, that God doesn't want anyone to perish in Hell, and it was impressed upon my heart to pray over this matter.
Don't mean to sound like I'm on a soapbox. This happened to me, and I'm passing it on. I don't want to offend anyone or twist their arms if they don't want to hear about religion. But his happened to me, and here it is.
BTW, have had that sort of experience about that issue a number of times.
Is probably one reason I have such a press in my spirit to get back to Taiwan as soon as God allows and supports it.
Prayers for your efforts in your network, spheres.
BTW, I prayerfully FORGIVE PEOPLE The Lord alerts me to do that in prayer for--whether I know them or just see them on the street. We don't know what that Scripture about whatsoever we forgive is forgiven--we don't know the reach of that Scripture. But we do know that prayerfully doing Biblical things has powerful results. So, I do so and trust the results to God.
Sometimes, if I'm uncertain about a group of people I'm praying that way for, I'll add the caveat--according to your will, Oh, Lord.
add me to your ping list please.
