So for a while now I have been a bit like Noah, building my boat in the desert.

I believed God when He called me to England, even though I had no proof.

So I started to build my Ark, to I step out and do the things that God called me to do.

I did all I could do, and then I did as the Scriptures say, I stood.

I stood and waited on the goodness of the Lord.

For a season I saw not a speck of rain, not a drop.

I stood, declaring God’s goodness over my life.

I stood amidst the laughter.

But I am not going to lie, I was starting to droop a bit. I was starting to make other plans.

And then it happened….

Out of nowhere I felt a drop of rain, more than a drop actually, many, many drops…5,000 actually.

Yesterday I received an anonymous Cashier’s Check for 5,000 dollars to go towards England.

Yes, you read that right, $5,000 dollars!!!!!!

I am praising God for His goodness!!!!! I am publicly thanking the sender of the check!!!

You are awesome and I believe that God will reach many people through your generosity.

The money is now safely tucked in a separate savings account waiting for the door to England to open up.

My heart is not about going to Europe but doing Gods will. And God is faithful to bring to fruition that which He wills.

So now I wait on God with renew hope. Knowing that it will happen. God is good!!!

If God has put it on your heart to give towards England I will include a link below.

If you feel led to pray know that I covet your prayers.

May God bless you mightily as you seek and do what He has called you to do.

Know that I am praying for you to, that you may feel the rain.

Please Join me in Praying for this

I have been called to England and am willing to sell everything and go.

Yet, I need an OPEN DOOR.

I am trusting God to make a way, and I know that He would not have led me here, except to show how good He is.

But I have given notice and need to be moved by August 1st.

I need my next steps and an open door.

My 30 day fast is up on the 3rd. I am hoping to hear something not long after.

So to my Christian Brothers and Sisters, I am asking for you to join me in praying for an open door to England for me and my son.

God told me ministry and yet not which area. I am willing to go wherever He leads.

If you are in England and feel led to share any ministry related openings, my email is abbasyaldah@outlook.com.

God bless and please put any prayer requests that you have below and I will pray for you.

What signs does God give someone at 3 a.m.? This kind!

Filed under England, Thoughts on Trusting God

I woke up at three am, and while usually I wake up amidst Christian songs filling my head and good thought for my day, for whatever reason (maybe even for the purpose here) I woke up and the doubts started coming.

You know the doubts that come when you attempt to trust God against all odds. The doubts that say, “You know this will not work right?” “That you are going to look foolish in front of everyone you know?” “You know that you are going to do a disservice for Christ by showing those on the fence how you can get your hopes up and God will not be faithful to come through?” “You know that you are blowing it, big time….better to quite, hide, shrink back. Give up blogging and give up hope of ever going anywhere for God or doing anything great for Him…When it comes to having success….let’s face it you are just not the type!”

Wow…so glad I do not wake up with these thought on a daily basis!

So anyway here I was….it was the middle of the night and the odds were stacked against me to have any kind of a great day…..but then my daughter heard me get up and wanted to remind me of something she called me (at 3 am) after talking with her I decided to check and see if there was any texts (at 3 am), there was only one.

Before I tell you what I said you must know a few things

My name is Lisa
My friend works at night, at an apartment cabana, where she is there to give night visitors the packages that came in the day
She sent the text hours before I receive it

It said that a package came in from the United Kingdom for someone named Lisa.

Now while some may think that is not really a sign from God, keep in mind that it was three am, doubts were filling my head and I believe it was just His way of reminding me that He is in this! He is the orchestrator and perfecter of the plans that He has for my life and yours.

Every time along the way when I have needed a boost to my faith, there was a small sign to keep me believing that I was going in the right direction.

So while one little sign may be like a snowflake, you get enough of them and it is a blizzard that cannot be ignored.

God will let you know if the path you are on is the path He set before you…just look for the signs.

Why God wants us to appear foolish

Filed under About Me, Bible Verse, England, Thoughts on Trusting God

I am confident I will see the Lord’s goodness while I am here in the land of the living. (Psalm 27:13, NLT)

People think I am crazy, that is no joke.

They think I am nuts to believe that God would be so good to me, that even though the odds are stacked far against me, that He would get me a job in England and give me money to move there.

But doesn’t the word say that it is our faith that moves mountains! It is not our “kind of-maybe-sometimes-a-little-bit-half-hearted-belief,” but our Faith!

What is faith?

The Bible says that “Faith is the confidence that what we hope for will actually happen; it gives us assurance about things we cannot see.” (Hebrews 11:1)

I have been assured by God that His will for me is England.

When God gives us a call on our life it is wise to give it back to God saying “I am believing that you are calling me to do this, at this time, if it is not you God then please redirect my steps.”

If He does not redirect our steps then He wants us to just have faith and believe.

He wants to open the doors for us to the miraculous so that other Christians will be amazed at what He has done and begin to trust Him to work in their life in a greater way.

God wants unbelievers to see our faith and hunger for God’s hand in their own life.

What is the radical thing is God calling you to believe for?

Have you given it back to God?

Have you stepped out in faith and shared with others?

If you are waiting to share about Gods goodness until “after” He makes “it” happen, then you will not have the “FAITH IMPACT” on others that you were supposed to have.

Jesus never told anyone “your kinda believing has made you whole” or “Never have I seen such great half-hearted belief.”

I believe that God wants us to look like fools, so that when He comes through people will notice!

Jesus is calling you out to the deep.

Believe Big and when God settles in your heart what to believe for, Share Bigger!!!

I have no idea what is in store for me there but I know that God’s plans for me are good.

As are His plans for you!!!

So believe your marriage will be restored!!!!

Believe that your sick child will be made whole!!!!

Believe that you will succeed in your business!!!!

And even believe that God will make a way and a life for me and my son in England!!!!

Remember…

We are call believers not watch-wait-and-seeers!”

Watch God and be amazed!!!!

Why I am standing here

“having done all … stand firm.”

(Ephesians 6:13)

God is faithful!!!!

If I go to my grave never having grasped anything of real importance, I know that I know this, God is faithful, steadfast and true!!!!!

Right now I feel a bit like the Israelite’s who have been lead out of slavery, but have their captors giving chase and have been lead to what looks like their certain doom by a God who says He loves them.

They are facing the Red Sea with the Egyptians getting closer by the second thinking, “this is where we die.” They have no idea the AMAZING thing that God is about to do. The path that He is about to make open up before them.

Likewise, I have followed God to this place. He told me to give notice to my landlord, He told me to leave my job, He told me to prepare for England, and what jobs to Apply to, He even told me to start this blog and share about His faithfulness.. I have the Egyptians at my back, getting ever closer and I have an ocean before me which cannot be crossed without a miracle from God.

So I will Stand!!!

I will dig in my heals and believe and declare LOUDLY that God, MY GOD, is faithful!!!

That God is trustworthy!!!

Sit back and watch and be amazed as He parts the red sea in my life. And Believe Him to do the same in yours.
