Holy Father, Comforter, Lord Jesus; hear the prayers of your precious child as her mother stands before you. Let your child stand upon the hope and truth of your word, and comfort her during this time of bereavement. In Jesus' Holy Name, Amen.
Shalom luviee,
I pray this helps you in your grief concerning your mom. If she was born again, then take heart you will see her again. If you had been praying for her and believing the Lord and are still are unsure, please let this testimony minister to you:
I wanted to share the praise report of my dad going home to be with Jesus on Wednesday, November 30, 2011. There was a battle for his soul, but my dad is now in the presence of the Lord. He was 81. The following is the account of what happened...I want to encourage anyone with unsaved loved ones, don't ever allow the thought of their loved ones not being saved to take up residence in your thought life.
On Wednesday, November 29, 2011, my dad went to be with the Lord, and this is the incredible story of his journey of death into life. My dad was 81 years old when he experienced his encounter with the Lord. It's such an wonderful story of God's amazing grace and faithfulness to keep that which we have committed unto Him against that day.
I saw my parent's on Thanksgiving at my niece's house about 2 1/2 hours away. My dad looked fragile and he was congested in his chest. My mom looked good and kept commenting on how sick pop looked.
On Friday, my sister takes pop to the hospital because he is throwing up alot of phlegm. They admit him.
On Monday my sister calls me and tells me my dad is in the hospital, and says pop wants to talk to me. All I could understand was pneumonia and two months...I thought he said two months. I said to him, "pop, could you put Pauline on the phone cause I don't understand what you said?" My sister gets on the phone and says matter of factly,"Pop's dying; he's terminal." I said, "okay." That was in the afternoon.
Tuesday as I'm cleaning the bathroom, I feel such an urgency inside me that I have to go to Georgia today. Then my niece calls, "pop is dying, he may not be alive when you get here". I call my husband, and he, my son, and I travel to Georgia. My mind is whirling...asking the Lord all kinds of questions...when I see my dad, I lean over and say in his ear, "Pop, I love you. Choose Jesus." Several times I sat beside him and held his hand praying in the Spirit.
Then my sister says something that set alarms off in me..."Pop was telling me the other day he saw three 'shadow people', and that they were coming to get him." I said to the devil, "I don't think so!" My son and I went down to the first floor to the chapel and began to pray. The Lord led us to different scriptures, and then I started walking back and forth praying, and the word "REDEMPTION" came up out of my spirit and I began to laugh…laugh of rejoicing. My dad's vital signs go up, and never move so I decided, let's go back home about 2 1/2 hours away, get a shower and some sleep and come back. So that's what we did.
On Wednesday morning I call my niece and ask about my dad. She says, nothings changed, his vital signs are still good. About 15 minutes after being on the road I look up in the sky, and it's blue but there look like angel wings up there. I'm wondering if that has any significance. As we leave our state, I get a phone call from my sister..Pop is gray and they can't get a blood pressure. I asked the Lord, "please let me know pop is okay with you" even though I received the word "redemption" and laughter. Suddenly the song, "He's alive, he's alive, heaven's gates are opened wide, He's alive!" I call a friend up and I told her what happened in the chapel the night before, and the next thing that comes out of her mouth is "He'a alive! He's alive!" I said, I cannot believe you said that, that song just came to me before I called you!
Still a part of me, has these little doubts trying to crowd out what the Lord has said. When we get to the hospital, pop is already gone. I go over and tell him, "Pop, although your body is laying here, I know you aren't here. This was just the shell you lived in. I love you."
While I was in the bathroom, my niece and her husband come in Pop's room and are talking to Gary and my son. When I came out, Gary said I needed to share with her and her husband what happened the night before and that morning. When I got done, she was crying, because she had heard Pop mention the "shadow people." Then she tells us her story...just before pop passed, she said pop looked at mom and said in a peaceful manner that he loved her. Up to that time he had been completely unconscious for 24 hours. That's God.
After we left to come home, we stopped at a restaurant and my niece calls me with the most incredible story. When her husband and her had gotten in the car, they started hearing music. The checked their cell phones, no, it wasn't that. It was the radio...it had come on by itself and the song that was playing was Jesus Saves.
Later my twin calls from Israel…I had told her earlier about what happened in the chapel and of the word "redemption." As she is talking to me, she says they visited the valley where David slew Goliath. The rabbi that was there on the tour spoke on the subject of REDEMPTION.
Yesterday, my niece expanded on what happened with my dad just before his last two breaths…she said his face which had been gray and mottled became lighted and his eyes which had been fixed and glazed looking, suddenly became blue as he looked straight at his wife, and mouthed "I love you." He breathed two last breaths and was gone.
NEVER give up hope for your lost loved ones, NEVER! Commit them into the Lord's care, and be persuaded He is able to keep that which you have committed unto Him against that day. Don't let fear rob you of the promises of God. During this whole time I had a peace…even when doubts came, I had peace…doubts come from the soul realm, the realm of the will, mind and emotions, but peace in your spirit carries you if you won't let fear and doubt get a foothold to rule over you. Always allow the love of God, His life, to flow in how you speak, in how you act, your attitude, your behavior towards those who are unbelievers in your family.
God bless you all!
My testimony:
Our God is faithful!
My sister's testimony of our dad going to be with the Lord rejoices my heart. I want to share my side of that testimony.
On November 28, I received a call from my sister, Jean, telling me that our dad was in the hospital with pneumonia, unable to swallow or drink anything, and in fact, diagnosed 'terminal'. Our trip to Israel had been planned for many months, so the decision to be made was, what to do. Do we stay or go.
We choose God.
The next day, while ironing this scripture came to mind. There is a man whom Jesus called to follow him. This man said, 'let me go bury my dad first.' Jesus said, "let the dead bury their dead" I asked the Lord about this because I never thought or meditated on it. This is what I received. This man whom Jesus called, had seen the many miracles, people healed, raised from the dead, demons cast out, yet, not once did he ask Jesus to restore his dad back to life, instead, he was going to accept this death and go bury his dad. He saw no hope for redemption. Then the Lord said, 'ask me for life for your dad', so I asked for 'life' for my dad. All of a sudden this song comes on my kindle: "Dance with Me"
Behold you have come over the hills upon the mountains
To Me you will run
My Beloved you've captured my heart.
Won't you dance with me O Lover of my soul,
To the song of all songs.
Dance with me O Lover of my soul
To the songs of all songs.
With you I will go
You are MY love, you are my fair one.
The winter has passed and the springtime has come.
Won't you dance with me, O Lover of my soul,
To the song of all songs,
Romance me O Lover of my soul
To the song of all songs.
Peace and rejoicing came upon me, a wonderful knowing the love of God pouring in.
I called a friend whose husband plays the shofar and asked that he play the shofar for my dad (I felt the Lord wanting this). So he did.
We leave for our trip that evening, and when we arrived in Israel on Wednesday, after I got my travel phone, I called my twin and found out our dad has passed away to be with the Lord. Then she shares with me her amazing testimony, and then our neice shared this on -banned site-, of which I share a portion:
"As we drove to Toys r Us, we heard a noise and we both thought it was our cell phones. We realized it wasn't ours. I thought it may have been my granfather's, but it wasn't his either. We looked up and our stereo had turned itself on and this song was playing. This following verse was playing as I turned it up: "You save. You heal. Restore, reveal, your Father's heart to us. You rose to raise us from the grave. Your Spirit lives in us." ..(and) I knew he wasn't a lost soul, but with the angels...'
God is faithful to them who press in and believe His word. It is not his desire that any one perish but all come to repentance. When we know the word of God and His will, we are able to say:
And this is the confidence that we have in Him, that if we ask ANY THING according to His will, He hears us. If we know that He hears us, whatsoever we ask, we know we have the petitions that we desired of Him. 1 John 5:14,15
Father, I pray for each person who reads this testimony of your faithfulness to us. I ask that each one begin to have hope for that person with whom they have prayed and prayed for and yet have seen nothing.
While we look NOT at what we see, but we look at what we can't see. We call forth those things that be not as though they were.
In Jesus name. Amen
I pray this helps you in your grief concerning your mom. If she was born again, then take heart you will see her again. If you had been praying for her and believing the Lord and are still are unsure, please let this testimony minister to you:
