This is part 2 from my previous message on the Family Redeemer.
My Testimony:
In 2021 my family began doing bible studies together. The presence of God was inevitable and He was moving in the midst of our gatherings together. My son accepted Jesus as his savior and was reading the Bible. He always grew up with our family leading worship and going to church. So he knew and heard about Jesus, but this time was different. He was now older and made the decision on his own to follow Jesus. He was very attentive in our Bible studies, looked very happy and seemed to enjoy blowing the shofar.
I began to notice him excluding himself from our gatherings we had together. I didn't think anything of it really because he was still coming but instead of sitting on the couch where he would normally sit with everyone, he started to sit in the kitchen all by himself. Then it seemed he eventually lost the interest to come anymore. This is where the dreams started from God. In the dreams God was giving me at the time, I am either holding a gun in my hand and I'm standing in front of the intruder, dogs barking viciously, or seeing 3 people dressed all in black clothing running after my son and I am holding ninja stars in my hand to throw and I hit every single one of them.
I didn't do anything yet at that point, but I am asking myself, "why am I having all of these dreams about my son?" Just then, God, with His mercy, grace and love gave me a dream I will never forget!
Job 33:14-16
For God speaks again and again,
though people do not recognize it.
He speaks in dreams, in visions of the night,
when deep sleep falls on people
as they lie in their beds,
He whispers in their ears,
and terrifies them with warnings.
In my dream I fly out of my body and I’m above ground. There is a huge unseen face in front of me. Then just as fast as this happened I am back in my body and my phone rings. It woke me up from a slumber and I answer and say, “hello.” On the other side of the phone call I can hear my son crying. I jump out of bed in a panic and I felt like I overslept and missed my alarm. I am frantic at this point and I no longer hear him on the phone. I walk down the hallway to the kitchen and my dad comes walking in with mail in his hand. I go rushing towards him still in a panic and stumbling over my words. All I could say at that moment was, “Dad, you have to go get him.” End of dream.
This dream bothered me and I will never forget the experience I had in this dream. This dream caught my attention for sure. During this time, my son for the first time ever, wanted to leave for the summer to stay with his dad. He was throwing everything away in his room and it felt he couldn’t get away from me fast enough. I was gripped with fear and pain while battling invasive thoughts in my mind. All I could do was cry. I made a very smart and important decision during this moment.
I love my family, and God knows I’m very close to them. All I wanted to do at this moment was run into my dad’s arms and cry. I wanted to feel his comfort and loving arms hold me. I needed something to ease this pain I was feeling. I grabbed the door handle to run over to my parents, but I chose not to. Instead, I let go of the door knob and walked over to the place I meet with God and I cried! I cried out to Him and asked Him to give me a Word. Something I can hold on to. With unstoppable tears running down my face I cried out to the only person who can help me, and that was Jesus. I grabbed my Bible and looked up to the ceiling sobbing and asked the Lord for His Word.
Abba Father was already waiting for me in “our spot” to comfort me and to give me the story about Hannah praying for a son. I felt the Lord wanted me to do something that I had a hard time wanting to do. He wanted me to trust Him. He wanted me to let go and give my son to Him. All my mixed emotions and feeling overwhelmed because of my dreams, I had to trust that God was going to take care of it. And from then on, I sowed seeds in faith over my son William. Time passes and someone blessed me by putting a small garden with flowers in front of my house. I was not expecting this and this came out of nowhere. This was around the time of Mother’s Day that year. This person who planted these seeds of flowers in front of my house put the empty packages on my kitchen table. I looked at them to see what flowers were planted and to my surprise, my eyes fell upon one package. One package stood out to me and I grabbed it, held it in my hand and it read Sweet William!! I never knew there was such a flower, but you can bet every time I look for flowers, I search for the Sweet William’s. I have this package to this day and I don’t believe I will throw it away anytime soon. This is a reminder to me that God was showing me that God watches over His Word to perform it. He showed me that although I couldn’t see what my prayers and decrees were doing, God revealed I was sowing seeds!! When Hannah prayed for a son and the LORD blessed her with Samuel, It says in 1 Samuel 2:19 Each year his mother made a small coat for him… God was showing me in Scripture that my prayers and decrees over my son’s life were covering him. The name Samuel means “God Who Hears” And God heard my prayers!! Jesus is so good! God showed me in the natural what was happening in the spiritual. And I thank Him for that all the time.
Like I said, God watches over His Word to perform it, He keeps His promises. And when I cried out for Abba to go and get my son, He was showing me that He was at work because it was my faith that pleased Him so well. Using His Word is powerful and it cuts deep. It exposes our thoughts and the intentions of the heart. Only He can go where no one else can. He can only reach where no one else can. It was that sense of trust, security and affection in the “secret place” with Him. This is the kind of relationship between my Heavenly Father and His child. The childlike faith is something precious.
In this place, you begin to believe that God wants His best for you. This is where God reveals a part of Himself to you that’s sacred and holy. We should always be seeking after more of this secret place with Him.
That was the beginning of getting involved with #DontMessWithOurKids. God opened a door for myself and my family to be a part of a grass roots movement. A call to the Capitol in 2024 was so profound and humbling that God would allow me to represent my state of North Dakota to pray, fast and stand in the public square for family! Not just for family, but for generations and future generations to come.
Family redeemer means to perform the role of a kinsman. It refers to a close relative who is responsible for restoring the rights of a family member or avenging wrongs done to them.
Luke 23:28 But Jesus turned and said to them, “Daughters of Jerusalem, don’t weep for Me, but weep for yourselves and for your children.”
Proverbs 14:26 Those who fear the LORD are secure, He will be a refuge for their children.
I truly believe that God the Father wants to deal with His people in this hour of any wounds that had festered from any past relationships. I felt the Lord say, “Many people do not know Me as their Father.” And I believe He wants to invade the hearts of the people to bring healing. To restore the family’s in this time so they can cross over with the blessings of being lavished in the oil that He bathes the feet to move ahead in provision of abundance of His love. He is giving us grace to move and do His will. The Lord brought to my remembrance what He sang over the Israelite people in Numbers 6:24-26
The LORD bless you, and keep you.
Make His face shine upon you and
Be gracious to you, the LORD turn
His face toward you and give you peace!
In closing, God showed me that when we accept Jesus as our Lord and Savior, we become a new creation. We become a part of His Family!! The Family that God wanted from the beginning.
John 19:25-27 Standing near the cross were Jesus’ mother and his mother’s sister Mary ( the wife of Clops), and Mary Magdalene. When Jesus saw His mother standing there beside the disciple he loved, He said to her, “Dear woman, here is your son.” And He said to this disciple, “Here is your mother.” And from then on this disciple took her into his home.
HaMishpacha: It is the celebrating of family and loved ones.
Mishpachah: is the Hebrew word used for family.
Mem: Gem.#40, Water, Ppl, Nations, Languages and Tongues
Shin: Gem.#300, Teeth, Sharp, Steadfast, Return (Power of Speech)
Pe: Gem.#80, Mouth, Word, Expression, Vocalization, Speech, Breath
Tav: Gem.#400, Mark, Sign, Signal, Monument (pictograph is a cross)
He: Gem.#5, Behold, Look, Divine Breath, Revelation, and Light
If you add up these letters in the Hebrew alphabet you get the number= 825(new beginning, double, grace)
I thought this was interesting while searching out these letters in the Hebrew word for family. It could read something like this:??
"Behold the Divine Breath of Revelation and Light on the cross as a Mark and Sign, Vocalizing with Expression the Word that destroys and cuts through with power for every Tongue, Nation and People."
