Yesterday's fruit, tomorrow 's wine!!!

Some years after I finally accepted my calling, I remember pleading with God to allow me to preach. But to be called and then be forced to sit in the background and listen to people speak from books of the Bible they couldn’t even properly pronounce was the most aggravating experience of my life. It was during my inner court period that the Lord was developing my gift. I would be in the shower, preaching to bars of soap and washrags. I would be walking through the woods laying hands on trees. All of this might sound comical to you, but I now see these moments as part of a season of fermentation.

I was wondering when it would be my time to stand and proclaim the infallible Word of God. My heart would ache because I knew I had something to offer.

But waiting was far more beneficial because the Lord was working on something marvelous in a secret place. He was working on my character. He was working on my heart. He was working on my nervousness. He was working on my motives. He was working on my wisdom. He was working on me, boiling off every single impurity because there was no way God was going to present to the world an unrefined, unfermented underdeveloped product.

When it comes to winemaking, the fermentation stage is nothing more than a waiting area for the grapes. They have already been crushed, and now the grapes find themselves in an aspect of the process where there is no pain, so to speak. It’s in that transitory moment of waiting that God is preparing you for the next step.
After crushing us, God exercises His grace by allowing us to ferment in the supposed stillness of transition so that we might be ready for the next stage - tomorrow's wine!!!!!

You have great confidence, faith and belief on our God, verily, I appreciate you. I suggest only three things to avoid on this Earth, 1. Woman. 2. Power. 3. Wine. You have compared the human life with wine, it is great and wonderful.

God will allow you to preach His word when you are full of the presence of Jesus in your life. Live like He lived, do what He did and pray the way Jesus did. Wherever He went He was in prayer, talking to His heavenly Father who He loved so much. Do you see preachers and teachers who live a life like Jesus, full of prayer and full of the presence of God in their life? They are the one chosen by God Himself to share wonderful thing He has stored for us. Yes, God wil crush us just as He did to Jesus on the cross. But at the end victory came. He rose from the dead and He is alive forever more. Amen
 
😍. Yes Smilee. Most of my messages are Holy Spirit inspired. They are mostly the paths I had gone through. My only aim in posting these are to soothe the hearts of those who are going through the same path and I know you are one amongst them. Although you are in the waiting period for a blessing Jesus loves you and He is with you. He will never let you down and also will never put you to shame. Love you too Smilee.

Jesus is your strength Smilee. God bless you.
 
Smilee, i dont know whether you can follow what i do. Anyway i write here what im doing.
I get at 5 am positively and I hour I read Bible. A man of God gave me some Bible passages to read everyday for one hour. ( 5-6) He told me whether I eat food or not I must read those passages everyday.( I will let you know what they are). I was a very fearful person and the day I started to do that I don't know where my fear left. This I'm following nearly 7 yrs. Then I start my personal prayer. (praising for 30 mtes). But before starting that I hug Jesus ( imagine myself with Him) and tell Him that I love Him with all my heart, soul.....This I keep on tell Him many times a day. I give Him kisses often. After nearly 15 mtes I claim many of the promises which I love in Bible also those suits my life. Not a day will pass without keeping my hand on the passages of Enoch with God as well as Noah. So, Jesus keeps talking with me and continuously guiding. What a wonderful God we have. I wonder how people miss this God. Then nearly 15 mtes i pray for my family and for the day.
Then noon, after lunch....
( will continue after our family prayer gets over Smilee)
 
After lunch I read some Bible passages.
Night again 8- 9.30, personal prayer and then family prayer. 10.30 I go to bed.
This schedule suits my present situation. Next I don't know what it would be.
I'm an ordinary person but in spite of all my trials and agonies I just clinging on to Him. I LOVE JESUS MORE THAN ANYTHING ELSE IN THIS WORLD. Thats all.
