....And I broke the Pickle Jar
Last week my oldest daughter came running to me for help. I had just bought a new jar of pickles and she could not open them up. Surely, Mom could do it and this was going to be an easy thing. I sometimes wonder how they get those lids so tightly on jars in the factory. I was not going to pull the wimp card but I could not get that lid off. I tried banging the bottom with the palm of my hand. I saw someone do that once. It did not work. I tried twisting it, and it would not budge. I even tried getting a butter knife and breaking the seal by trying to wedge it between the lid and the jar. Nothing was working. Dan was not home and even if he was, I really hate admitting when I cannot do something like this without his help. I was going to get that jar open! Finally I took the opposite end of a butter knife and whacked at the lid. I thought a couple smacks would make the jar open, and it did. Evidently, I do not know my own strength.

Anna,
ReplyDeleteThis resonates with me. I thought I would share a prophetic word that Apostle Axel Sippach shared with his facebook community. He works closely with Apostle John Eckhardt.
"Be it unto me according to Thy word:"
2000 years ago, after God had not spoken to Israel for 400 years, there came a season called "the fullness of time," where a door from the invisible realm of heaven opened up inside the womb of a young virgin. God spoke the Word - the power of the Spirit overshadowed her - she received and conceived. And 9 months later Israel's Messiah - our Messiah - was born.
I believe this New Year - 2013 - will be a "fullness of time" season for many in the body of Christ concerning their destinies, where a door from the invisible realm of heaven will open in their spiritual womb, and they will hear God speak a "now word" to them regarding their future. And in that holy visitation, they will receive and conceive that "new thing" they have been seeking the Lord about.
"Thy people shall be willing in the day of thy power, in the beauties of holiness from the WOMB OF THE MORNING: thou hast the dew of thy youth." Psalm 110:3
Amen :-) Thanks again for letting me share this with your church. Anytime I get to minister it's always an honor!
