The Lord unexpectedly used me as a mouthpiece to speak a word people needed to hear

Last Sunday at Revol Church in Asheville, NC, we had a beautiful start to the service with worship to the Lord and an amazing testimony from our Sister in Christ who used to be an addict living in a trap house, being used and abused while she herself was using. BUT GOD!!!! He brought her out and as she got desperate and decided for change and took action to get in a sober living house and start going to church regularly to get in a positive community of believers that would support her and help her to stay clean, God moved in such a beautiful and mighty way in her life! Now she's helping others get out of what she herself was healed and set free from! After that, Holy Spirit was giving me a big nudge to get up there and tell the Pastor that God wanted to move today and call people to lay down what they've been struggling with and put an end to what has kept them addicted or keeping them away from the Lord. I didn't know what I was doing, and it was embarrassing to just boldly get up there but I knew I had to do it and was being obedient to let the Lord use me to speak what He wanted people to know! That word spoke directly to many hearts!!    People came to the alter to lay it down, let it go, and surrender to the Lord. They laid down physical objects or laid down spiritually what was holding them back that they were struggling with that very morning and almost didn't come to church that day because of the battle! There was lots of prayer, repentance, and forgiveness and the Lord moved in such a beautiful way! I would like to encourage you to find a church home and go regularly to worship, pray, hear the Word of God preached, and get plugged in to groups that help you, encourage you, teach you how to live life in Christ, find true joy and peace and abundance in life as you live out your true purpose! We're not meant to do life on our own! We're not meant to struggle or go through hard things alone! We need community! Sometimes we need an extra push to give something or someone up that we wouldn't have been able to do on our own! Sometimes we need someone to pray for us because we're going through so much pain we can't get ourselves to pray. Sometimes we get healing as we help and serve others and the Lord works through us and the ones we're serving that way. We get all that and more in a church community!    You can't experience the fullness of what happened last Sunday at home in bed listening to church online. Bedside Baptist is not what the church is supposed to be. Get up! Go to church and worship and pray or get prayer! Get plugged in! Surrender to the Lord and give Him your yes! And do it alongside your Brothers and Sisters in Christ! And watch the changes that happen in your life!
