Intercession Prayer by the Holy Spirit
Переглядів 1155 років тому
This is a lengthy recount of how God miraculously prayed through me for a person I'd never met before to "provide everything I needed." I'd later meet her that day. This story is about earnest prayer, seeking God through His word, being obedient to Him, and having Him answer prayers so specific and measured you know it is Him. This is one of the many ways God has used my "poor circumstances" to...
Coffee on God - How God Built Our Relationship More Through My Financial Need - Testimony
Переглядів 1315 років тому
A brief story about the building of a relationship with God through Him simply showing me how He is for me, even on buying me coffee in my need. He doesn't see some things as frivolous. He used my need to build my relationship with Him more. I love that!! It's funny how the Lord uses my poorness, financially, to build a more experiential relationship with Him. I love Him, providing for me every...

Willingness to give a monetary surprise to my friend in the form of theater tickets opened the door for God to surprise me and her.

Poor in Spirit; Rich in Grace

Video about a revelation I had when I was trying to take authority over what I was feeling and feeling like I was going through the motions and being fake. Knew I didn't really feel the power or authority. I felt poor in spirit. I looked that up and found a Billy Graham response to someone's question about being poor in spirit and juxtaposing that against being rich in spirit. He cleared it up....

Malachi 3:10
Such a great testimony
Glad you think so. Hope it was as helpful.
There are 2 Tithing ordinances in the Old Testament, not one ; Deut. 14:22-27 and 28, 29. Both of them required the Israelites to give produce, and livestock once a year, not money Hear the word of the Lord speak for itself on my video. Scheduled to be released on my UA-cam channel, According To The Scriptures on 2/6/2023
Please can you tell me how it is now
Elizabeth - Hello. I am having the same issues still. I will say that when I saw the greatest change, and when the spots on my thighs were practically unnoticable, was when my diet was the cleanest - lost of fresh veggies, fruit and brown rice is primarily what I ate all month. I just saw your response from a month ago too, and I definitely think refined sugar does play a role despite docs saying sun is the cause. I will keep in touch with you should something change. I am bummed to see what you wrote about the no dairy and eggs - I have a lot of both :( Hmmmmm. Here's to our beautiful legs one day...:) Holly
@@hollyobrien2664 I went very dark this summer ' i think they will.vanish when the tan does ?? They are truly awful !
Hi did it clear up. Medical medium.said no eggs dairy sugar ..I have so many and feel very sad
I know God is So Awesome an Faithful. I put my tithe in mail Late Sunday night Mon am the neighbor knocked on the door to give us 120. IT WORKS GOD WORKS.
I love stories like that. It's cool how God works. I'm glad for you to have these "proofs" of God for you too. Awesome, yes, and faithful, too! He is good.
I beleive you im a witness to it becauae i have a testimony... my pastor aproach me to give $100 per month for the building that the church had just purchased and the funds were so low that pastor was not paying himself because the building incurred olot if unexpected expenses due to the purchase of the building. I was offended when he asked because i was only making 12.50 an hour and i had to pay my share of rent and all other expenses . I thought well doesnt he know how much i make ? I barely have enought for my expenses and he wants 100.00 a month !!! I didnt obey right away but 3 months later somehow someway i noticed that after i would pay all my bills and rent and gas money and car insurance and food i always had $100.00 extra!! So God said to me ... see you do have $100.00 to give to the building fund. I obeyed God and started giving 100.00 per month and six months later God bless me with a job that paid $18.00 per hour and evert year i would get a raise.
I love it. His faithfulness is so cool. I love how we get to see Him at work in our lives to build our relationship with our heavenly father♥️
@@hollyobrien2664 Amen and Amen...
Halleluyah,,, Praise the Lord,,,, God is Almighty and our Father and is always loving towards us,,,,, thank you Lord Jesus Christ for giving your life for us and taking away our sins and washing us with your Holy Blood🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

Bless you holly
Peter - Hi. Thanks for the blessing :) I have been for sure. May you have been too with the words from this video, somehow. The word is powerful and living and when it comes to life in my life, I love it so much! : ) Be well. Thanks.
hello Holly, thanks for the video. I have the same condition. I have not been officially diagnosed with it but the pictures I see online are same as the ones I see on my thighs ,upper and lower limbs. I have same white spots under my eyes too.. However, I feel like some ingredients in cosmetics also causes causes their development. Shame there is no cure .. I am in my mid 20's and my Dad has got a couple on his limbs too.. I wonder if this skin condition has a genetic factor to it.
My apologies for this very late reply - I am just seeing I even got this. I will tell you what I have found in my six months from both physical observation of when the spots actually started clearly up - I cleaned up my diet - I cut out sugar and I began taking probiotics. Then, I also noticed that using Tretinoin cream also worked. It must be prescribed - I'd gotten it for my face for a complete different reasons, but researching this more, I found that that is a very positive treatment for it. Another video I posted talks about it, but you can look it up and also look up the research on Tretinoin and Idiopathic Guttate Hyomelanosis and you can see the results for yourself. Now, it shows a lightening of all the skin, but it does seem to work. Sun is a factor, too, and that is what my cousin, a dermatoligist, and other research indicates - that the sun does exacerbate it, but my thinking is maintained, if there was not a problem with my body in the first place, the sun would not pose an issue. I have talked to more and more people who have this - seems it's extremely common, mine just seems to be so presenting to the degree that is it highly visible. So, i wish you luck - a (processed) sugar-free diet, probiotics, no sun and Tretinoin cream. This is what I found in my 6 months of research - I quit after period of time as it seemed nothing else made sense to focus on beyond the systems I already had. Good luck to you. Thanks for writing in! Holly
Hi do you think a plant base diet can cure this ?
Hi try Barley Grass it clean out the systems
How are yours now
Can u tell me what did the dermatologist prescribed as i m having the same? Im being asked to take 10min sunbath in alternate days 2hrs after having octamop
Night Walker - Hello. My apologies for this reply being so late. I did not know I had one. Pleases see what I wrote to the previous writer re: what I had done. I was told by the dermatologist to stay out of the sun, so I'm not sure why you'd be told the opposite. Any word or progress on your skin condition? What's octamop?
@@hollyobrien2664 haha I reply fast... U know what I'm happy as I'm now. This is me, n my condition is also not so severe or so much noticeable, except my back. I know my condition has no cure as docs even don't know the root cause...named Guttate Hypermelanosis. I'm cool 😁neway octamop is tab taken 2hrs prior to UV rays🤫and no progress but it's not so much neither so much noticeable🤫
@@Dip3268 Yeah, that's the thing - they don't know the root cause - I just figured I'd try and correct everything associated with it I could think of with not a lot of last success. Well, good luck to you. Sounds like you can hide yours well :) Take care!
@@hollyobrien2664 it's about being yourself 👻
Have you seen any improvement in your idiopathic guttate hypomelanosis ?
Rebekah - Hi. I did after 3 months and it was amazing really, but it has since come back full force. My third month was when I went off processed sugar and focused on my gut health also by taking probiotics. I also used, only about 3x times though, Tretinoin cream, and I'd been out of the sun for like a month. That combination really had me searching for my white spots on my thighs. They are more prevalent on my calves, but had majorly diminished b/c, I believe, of what I was doing. In writing this, seems I must stick to a strict diet and perhaps get more cream b/c they are back in full force. Also, I apologize for this late reply - I did not even know I had a message. Thank you for your inquiry. If you have it, I wish you luck! :) Holly
Loveeeee

Ok, I started to study tithe. A month ago I lost my job. I decided to give the tithe out off my husband's paycheck. A week later i was offered a job.
Hi Noom - Halleleujah! That is so great. God is true to His word, and I believe, in my case anyway, He has used my finances for me to grow closer to Him, and to develop my faith. May you love your new job, and share the word. :) Take care.
Great testimony. I wish you all good and ininfinite blessings 😇

Thank you for the inspiration in my giving to God in Tithing! I've always givin from my net pay after taxes etc..and sometimes I miss that week giving God's money 10% cause I think to myself I don't enough? so I leave it for the following week! Well now I put God first and give from the first fruits of my pay the Gross before taxes etc.. deduction! and what ever in my net is left thank God! I will not miss giving 10% tithing each week to God! I think of the poor countries and even the homeless those who have nothing on the street's etc.. I am blessed with life, my job, family and all the Glory goes to God I pray amen!

Amazing testimony of what God did for you through tithing
Hi. Yes, He is amazing how He turns back to us when we give. Have a great day! Thank you for the feedback. Happy you liked it.
> Here are many reason why tithing does not fit into Christianity, and never will... 1. Tithes, all three, were paid to the Levites, with some of the tithe consumed by the tither, and some of the tithe given to the poor and needy. The focus was surrendering the tithes to the Levites; do you know any Levites you can tithe to? 2. Tithing was established and commanded by God in the Law of Moses, sometimes called "The Law," "The Commandment," or "The Torah;" no matter what The Law was called, we as Christians are not under The Law, we are therefore not required to tithe. 3. Tithing was primarily established by God to support the Tribe of Levi and their Priestly duties; there are no Levite Priests ministering to the New Testament Church, no Priesthood to support, no need for tithing. 4. The tithes were the personal property of the Levite; God has never transferred ownership of the tithes from the Levite to any Apostle, Prophet, Evangelist, Pastor, Teacher, Church, other Ministry, or anyone else. 5. Some tithing teachers claim that we should "tithe as Abraham did," there is no scripture in the entire Bible, New or Old Testaments, insctructing Christians to tithe as Abraham did. 6. All tithes were restricted by God to be fruits, vegetables and clean animals from the Promise Land grown or raised by farmers and ranchers; how many Christians do you know who are farmers and ranchers living on the Promise Land? The tithe is tied to the land Israel received under the Old Testament. The tithes did not come off of any other land except the Promise Land. 7. God never instructed or permitted Gentiles to tithe. 8. No Apostle ever instructed tithing, asked for a tithe, rebuked any person or church for not tithing, or received a tithe. Not one of them. The early church (i.e. Book of Acts) NEVER tithed. We have NO record of them doing so. 9. After the death of Jesus Christ fulfilled the Law, the New Testament nowhere commands, or even recommends, that Christians submit to a legalistic tithe system, or any other tithing examples. 10. The New Testament talks about the importance and benefits of giving. We are to give as we are able. Sometimes that means giving more than 10 percent; sometimes that may mean giving less. It all depends on the ability of the Christian and the needs of the body of Christ. 11. Malachi 3:9-10 does not apply to us today, it was written to the Nation of Israel and the corrupt Priesthood. We can always learn about various truths and principles from any part of God's word, but that does not imply that scripture such as Malachi 3:6-11 is directly speaking to us as Christians. Some scripture is speaking directly to us, as Christians, some is speaking indirectly to us; unless, of course, you believe we should all be building boats such as Noah did? 12. Nowhere is tithing mentioned when commands to give generously are found in the New Testament. When Christians are instructed to give to the poor, they aren’t commanded to give “the poor tithe.” Instead, they are instructed to be generous in helping those in need (Acts 2:43-47; 4:32-37; 11:27-30; Gal. 2:10; 1 Cor. 16:1-4; 2 Cor. 8:1-9:15). For example, 1 Corinthians 16:1-4-a passage often cited in popular circles in support-doesn’t mention tithing; it relates to a one-time gift for poor saints in Jerusalem.
Mark - Hi. I"m glad you sent me all this information. thank you for these perspectives on scripture. You are well "versed"in your scriptures. Cool. My experience is what I wanted to share because I felt it showed God show up where he was needed and it directly, to me, references scriptures. I"m not telling you or anyone you have to tithe. I'll still tithe because I believe to whom I give my money, they are helping the poor and needy where I may not be able to at a given time. This morning I watched Joyce Meyer Ministries and what good they are doing around the world. I welled up and over many times grateful that my contributions over the years are going to good causes and helping in lots of ways. "Work out your own salvation with fear and trepidation"comes to mind. I've worked out for myself that it's alright to tithe. Maybe it's not mandatory, but I'm happy to help those in need and to help support the ministries who help me. Holly
Is she reading a script?
Hi. Yes. It's what I wrote about the experience. I read what I wrote so I didn't forget anything.
nice Holly!
That was great you shared that. God bless.
Hi. thank you for your response! Happy you liked it. Holly
Thank you for posting this. It's helping me in a situation that I'm in now. Great words of encouragement!
HI Bella. So glad! Happy you are encouraged! Thank you for telling me:) Holly
Yes what you wrote is pure truth! When you give, God always gives back more :)
Amen!
It's true:) I have found that much of what God does seems unbelievable I think for Him to show Himself to us through circumstances, especially circumstances that align with his word! - so we doubt less and believe more.
This is true God forgive my unbelief,
Yes, Ahkeeia, it is true:) Hope on.
