Rhema | It\u2019s OK We\u2019ll Make It<\/i><\/p>\n

Granted, this post is from a Spirit-filled perspective.<\/p>\n

Have you ever heard the preacher preach, and you can\u2019t really remember much of what was said, yet you had to respond to the altar call anyway?<\/p>\n

Have you ever shared \u201ca Word\u201d (Rhema) with someone else, and you can\u2019t remember much of what you said, but it was exactly what they needed to hear?<\/p>\n

Over the years I\u2019ve come to realize these occurrences happen all over a Pentecostal<\/a> church, not just at the altars. You never know when God is going to encourage you, or compel you to take a small step of action in response to His leading.<\/p>\n

Furthermore, you\u2019re never sure what you\u2019re going to remember from these divine moments. Will you remember the experience, the Rhema, or both?<\/p>\n

It really is going to be OK<\/h3>\n***
** Yesterday before church we were having table fellowship. I know what started the conversation and I know what ended the conversation, but I can\u2019t recall all the details. It was an experience, a divine moment.<\/p>\n
** During those moments it was said to me, with some authority, \u201cIt really is going to be OK.\u201d Or at least something very similar was said.<\/p>\n
** I cannot express the comfort this one line brought to me. I\u2019m in a discerning process like I have never been in before. I have big decisions to make. To recount this Rhema, even now as I write, brings a calm to my interior life.<\/p>\n
** We\u2019re going to make it<\/h3>\n
** Knowing full well that there will be a storm, Jesus still says, \u201cLet us cross over to the other side\u201d (Mark 4.35, NKJV).<\/p>\n
** Seasoned fisherman forget these words of Christ as they face the greatest storm they\u2019ve ever faced. Yet they knew in advance, the storm would not be their demise. They would reach the other side.<\/p>\n
** Can I latch on to Rhema that precedes the storms of life? Maybe there won\u2019t even be a storm.<\/p>\n
