πŸ’₯ Ahead of the event, God knows what we should do and God tells us and we win because we believe what God said and follow HIM


Dream given by God to Pam Padgett, August 23, 2024  (Storm ahead)
 
I was with some other people in a car. A man was driving and I was in the backseat behind him. We were going south on a road and stopped at a traffic light.  We were in the far east-most lane. 
 
While looking out the front window, I saw a funnel cloud south of us in the distance and pointed it out to the others in the car. Then the funnel cloud extended on both sides. At first, I thought it was dissipating, losing strength. 
 
 But then, suddenly, we could see very strong winds damaging buildings on the west side of the road a little south from where we were. Buildings were very damaged and we saw papers, including checks, blowing around. Then I realized that when the funnel cloud looked to extend on both sides, we were probably seeing debris picked up by the tornado that extended toward the outer edges of the tornado. 
 
Our car was not affected by the winds at all. We didn't even feel the wind pushing against the car.  We just watched what was going on, the destruction in front of us. 
 
* Destruction ahead. Suddenly.  Problems moving faster than we thought they would.
  
(Storm didn't affect our car.  But we are totally out of debt.  No mortgage, house and car paid for, no debt of any kind.)

Beth Martin's dream of July 26, 2024
 
I was in a building where something  (not a person) was coming to kill and destroy someone else in the building. I was directing the avoidance action of moving from place to place ..... placing myself between the destroyer and the intended target
 
 The destroyer was breaking down walls, shooting bullets and emitting loud noises .... it was like a war zone .... the destroyer was in constant pursuit of the other person. It was terrifying. 
 
After quite awhile, the destroyer left.  We got some rest. Then we could see the destroyer returning and braced ourselves for another battle ...... it was exhausting.  
 I knew that if I did not continue the fight, the person I was protecting would be destroyed.

Comments by Pam Padgett, member of the body of Christ
 
Well over a year ago, Joan Boney told me she felt God was showing her that severe financial problems are coming.   In addition, Joan, as well as other members of our church group, have had dreams which show financial problems ahead. 
 
Joan (who has lived at my house in Colorado Springs, Colorado, since an accident about 6 years ago) and I made some adjustments, including the following:  
 
- Although we still have bank accounts, we withdrew some cash
- We started storing up some non-perishable foods

πŸ’₯ We each lead a debt-free life (led by God to do as far back as 1975 till now), having no debt of any kind.

***

Yesterday, a headline popped up on my computer which caught my attention:  "The country that is asking its citizens to keep cash at home: “Hard times are coming…” "  
 
I stopped and read the article which is at MSN.com.  
 
The Polish government is seeing how dangerous the global economy has become and is urging its citizens to prepare for potential serious problems ahead.  The article began with the following paragraph:

* Amid growing economic and geopolitical uncertainty, the Polish government has made a bold appeal to its citizens: save cash at home and prepare for potential challenges ahead.   This move comes as Poland braces for what it sees as an increasingly unstable global financial landscape.
 
The Polish government has made recommendations for individual citizens which include:
 
- Save a reasonable amount of cash at home
- Reduce debt
- Building a reserve of non-perishable food essentials
   
***
 
Reading this reminded me that God knows all things, including the future, and prepares HIS people, often before any problem is apparent to us.  

I'm grateful for the adjustments we have already been led to make ... especially being out of debt as far back as the 1970's and teaching us to live debt free lives continually through the decades.

(Comments by Joan Boney)
 
I have lived these scriptures since I was born again in 1975:
 
* Joshua 1:8   This book of the law (the Bible) shall not depart out of thy mouth; but thou shalt meditate therein day and night, that thou mayest observe to do according to all that is written therein: for then thou shalt make thy way prosperous, and then thou shalt have good success.

God would call a scripture to my mind, and I would do that instruction and continue to do that scripture, sometimes for months or even years, even to the current time.

The most recent scripture given to me as I can recall: 
 
πŸ’₯   2 Peter 3:10-14  But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night; in the which the heavens shall pass away with a great noise, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat, the earth also and the works that are therein shall be burned up.

11 Seeing then that all these things shall be dissolved, what manner of persons ought ye to be in all holy conversation and godliness,

12 Looking for and hasting unto the coming of the day of God, wherein the heavens being on fire shall be dissolved, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat?

13 Nevertheless we, according to HIS promise, look for new heavens and a new earth, wherein dwelleth righteousness.

14 Wherefore, beloved, seeing that ye look for such things, be diligent that ye may be found of HIM in peace, without spot, and blameless  

Colossians 3:15  And let the peace of God rule in your hearts, to the which also ye are called in one body; and be ye thankful.

Romans 14:19  Let us therefore follow after the things which make for peace, and things wherewith one may edify another.

And doing the following scripture has comforted me a great deal and given me another layer of "peace".

1 Timothy 2:1-3  I exhort therefore, that, first of all, supplications, prayers, intercessions, and giving of thanks, be made for all men;

2 For kings, and for all that are in authority; that we may lead a quiet and peaceable life in all godliness and honesty.

3 For this is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Saviour;

(I've certainly prayed for our congressmen in USA as they develop a plan to finance the government to keep it functioning.)

God is able to put ideas into the mind of "kings" and those in authority and the Bible tells us God turneth the heart of kings whethersoever HE will. 

 Proverbs 21:1    The king's heart is in the hand of the LORD, as the rivers of water: HE turneth it whithersoever HE will.
 
πŸ’₯πŸ’₯πŸ’₯
 
For us:
 
Philippians 4:19    But my God shall supply all your need according to HIS riches in glory by Christ Jesus (the Word of God brought to our minds by the Holy Spirit of God)

So be sensitive to those thoughts brought to your mind by the Spirit of God and do those scriptures and ideas brought to you, making changes as appropriate.

I have often prayed for wisdom:

James 1:5  If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God, that giveth to all men liberally, and upbraideth not; and it shall be given him.

I've noticed the last few weeks when I've thought of adding something to my life and have prayed asking God about doing this, God has stopped me from doing this and has made me content with what I have, showing me even that what I have is better than what I considered buying or doing.
 
I've felt to just let money accumulate ... I have no debt of any kind.
 
Romans 12:2  And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind (by reading Bible), that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God.
 
If we have fear, commit that fear to God asking God if there is any adjustment we need to make. 
 
I've noticed concerning TV streaming stations, they tend to stack up.  One thing I want to do is check my TV bill and eliminate stations I don't use.
 
So I would say I'm being led to cut back on unused expenses and just allow money to accumulate.  (And pray for those in authority.)
