Yesterday as I was getting ready for prayer, I unplugged the phones, got my bible, anointing oil, communion, I lit a candle and took off my shoes.
I went to the computer and "x'd" out of everything. I then entered a site from Princeton University where you can play vaious masses that were put to music from the `1400's. Absolutely beautiful background for praying.
I began to pray and enter the presence of God. All of a sudden the music stopped and I heard moaning coming out of the speakers.
I ran to the den and I HEARD Terri. I also heard Bob Schlinder speaking to her and could hear his words so clearly and Terri's responses of moanings.
I went to my knees and in almost a trance like state and began warfare.
I was pretty shaken, I wondered if some wires got crossed and it just got picked up, I don't keep up with all the details of Terri's case, but I scan through and pray. I knew there was some kind of tape that was made. Bottom line, because of the prayer that followed this experience, I believe it was from God.
This morning, I went through the same preparation for prayer, I went back to the Princeton site, but chose another mass. Again, I heard the music and then I heard Terri again. I had the presence of mind to write down the transcript. It starts out by Mr. Schlinder saying "Are you going to smile for Daddy?" Has anyone heard of such a tape? I believe that God took me into Terri's room and allowed me to hear them. I need wisdom and I usually keep things to myself, but not this time, I believe it needs to be shared.
My only response this morning was deep sobbing.
Heavenly Father,
I just heard Bobby Schindler on Glenn Beck's program saying that they are working at getting emergency legislation passed today in FL to save Terri.
Father God, we pray that if it be Your will, that You will speak to the hearts of these legislatures. Soften their hearts, Lord, and give them an urgency they've never felt before to work quickly and in unity to save this precious woman's life who is fighting so hard to live.
We thank You for Jesse Jackson's support for what is right, and ask that You work through this unlikely person to save Terri also.
Lord, it's a miracle that Terri has held on this long, and so we come before You expecting more miracles that will show that YOU are in control, and we know that YOU will get all the glory, not man.
We ask You to preserve Terri's life Lord; give her food and drink that we know not of. Just as you preserved Moses' life for 40 days and 40 nights without food or water, we ask that you preserve Terri's life as long as is needed until she can receive nourishment and hydration once again.
We thank You and praise You and ask all this in JESUS' NAME, and for His glory, Amen.
May our beloved Terri be surrounded with Ministering Angels, singing glorious anthems of praise to You, O God. May their presence touch the depth of her soul with comfort and ease. The time for the release of her beautiful soul is at hand, yet we continue to pray that she be redeemed from the pit. May the conscience of a nation be pricked for a murder thus committed, that moral outrage might hold sway over the Merchants of Death, that they be swept away.
May the God of All Comfort walk with the Schindlers as they see the end approach. May there be many things that come back to bless their hearts, for they have given this nation a beautiful picture of a loving family, with faith in their God. Speak to their innermost being, O God, with assurance that Terri knows their love, and they know hers. Overwhelm them with an outpouring from those who have loved their beautiful daughter, that they might be sustained. To You, O God, be the Glory ... even in sorrow, great things You continue to do. In the Name of Jesus, we pray, Amen ...
What an amazing experience you had! I believe that when we make ourselves available to the Lord through prayer and when we are fully committed to being useful to Him, we'd better be prepared for anything! How wonderful that You were there for Him, ready to pray, ready to be an instrument of His peace and love!
Do not worry about wisdom. You are a New Creation and the Word tells us that Christ has been made wisdom unto us. You have His wisdom, His power within you! I am so glad that You were willing to stand in the gap for Terri. May His Name be glorified in Your prayers and may Terri be blessed because of Your commitment to His love, His power, His truth, and His Will. We shall give Him all the praise and glory! Thank you, PTL, for sharing your experience.
