The time? It was the exact time that the Holy Spirit had nudged me to pray for her.
What if I had not heeded the urgency I felt? I cringe to think what would have happened to my mother on that night if I had delayed in obeying. Being sensitive to His still small voice and doing what He said to do when He said to do it brought the intended results.
The second incident I am sharing occurred many years later. This time I worked in concert with the Lord using a language unknown to me, but given by Him. I was awake praying around 3:00 a.m., when I told Him that I would not resist His Holy Spirit’s gifts anymore but I wanted to be sure they were His gifts, and not some counterfeit. I then saw in my mind’s eye a ticker tape with a language written on it. As I whispered the unknown words I saw a picture of a young lady. I recognized her as one of the teachers in our Christian school.
