Puppy, if you have some kind of direct connection with him. Then ask him what is wrong with her. Change her... Soften her heart.
Right God told you...
No more like you need too, to fill your own belly.
Now the bad part is, if he really did. You went to the mountain, removed your sandals and he told you. Your face is white now.
If I'm saying he didn't tell you and he really did. That is blasphemy of the holy Spirt. That is unforgiveable offense.
So which is it. You lying, or did I blasphemize?
Because If I blasphemized, then I'm doomed....
Phil,
I did not lie, because I only asked a question for you to consider. I asked you to consider "what if I -- what if ALL of us -- werean answer to my prayer?
Phil, you say I'm good at praying. Do you believe that God answers prayers? The Word says that "the effectual, fervent prayers of a righteous man availeth much." On June 25th, this is what I prayed for you on the forum:
Quote:
Heavenly Father,
I pray first for your forgiveness in how I've dealt with Phil. I was frustrated, but more important is his own pain, and his family and especially his children. Please forgive me.
I also thank You for the fine people You have sent to try to help Phil, and for the patience that You have blessed them with.
Finally Father, I lift up Phil to you and ask that you bless him and his family. I pray that Your Holy Spirit will guide his interactions with his wife, and that You will grant him wisdom. I pray that You give him patience in dealing with his wife's emotions, and I pray that You will give him humility and that he will submit himself to YOUR will for his life and for his family.
I pray in Jesus' name,
Amen.

And on July 7th, I prayed/posted this:

Father God,
Thank you for Your extra grace that you have given to Phil and his family thru this difficult time, and thank you for answering my prayer to bring him wise and PATIENT counsel. We have seen Your hand at work in the support he has been given recently.
Lord, I can see where Phil is getting frustrated, and is near his wit's end. I pray that you could show him some progress, even today, so that he may be encouraged and know unequivocally that You are at work in his family and his marital situation.
I also continue to pray that You will soften his heart, and let him see where he is contributing to the situation, and give him wisdom and discernment so that he can do whatever is necessary to help his family. I also pray for Your divine protection against any physical harm or further emotional harm to him and his wife that the enemy is trying.
In Jesus' name,
Amen.
Yes, I believe I have been led by God Himself to post to you, just as I felt convicted by His Holy Spirit to post the above prayer of repetence and petition. I'm asking you to consider now, Phil, what if God ANSWERED that prayer on June 25th? What if what Jack, and Amy, and BrandNewDay,and Hoosier, and everyone else that has been posting to you the past four months, what if they are ALL answered prayer?
What if God Himself has been trying to speak to you all along, while you in your flesh keep ranting and rebelling and imploring "God, why won't you speak to me??"
Phil, I'm sure you've heard the joke about the man, the rising waters, and the three boats. I think it's even been referenced on your threads once or twice. I believe God has sent you not three, but three HUNDRED and thirty-three boats, and you keep pushing them all away.
I will respect your wish, and not post to you again, unless you ask me a sincere question (which I'd be more than happy to answer) or I feel strongly led to do so by Him who made you. But I do implore you to consider what everyone is trying to say to you. For your kids, for your wife, and for yourself.
We do love you, and want what's best for you and your family, and so does our Lord.
