Please pray for Bobby

hillsbororiver:
Bobby removed his own posts and deleted his own account, he needed time to be alone with the Lord and work some things out.

He has been a dear brother to me and many here, I suspect we will be seeing him back in a short time. I am sure he would greatly appreciate being in your prayers.

Bobby will be in mine.

His Peace to you all,

Joe

Hello everyone

Under this section Testimonies / Prayer Requests / Fellowship, Bobby wrote a post to Victoria where in I quote him as follows:

"...First I want to make it clear that I do not attend any institutionalized church of babylon. God revealed to me the lies and deciept that comes from it and I have no desire to return.

My trials are all of God and it is He and He alone that works in me according to His good pleasure. I am not perfect and still have a long way to go but my faith is in Him and He alone is in control of everything.

Satan has no power over me or anyone that is in Christ Jesus. Can satan decieve and try? Yes he can but he is no match for God because God also controls him."

These words are the truth...but I would add, that in or out of Christ, God is in control because to quote Ray in an e-mail responce he wrote...."distinguish between God's  "will"....and God's "plan" to achieve His "will". ...God's will...live righteously. His plan..first live UNrighteously. ...to..be humbled in...utter inability to do God's perfect will...repent of..weakness and wickedness....understand....We sin voluntarily from our hearts...so...it is only right and good that we should be punished...and...converted...into the Image of God's Son.  God be with you, Ray"

This is not to  trivialize or make light of any pain Bobby is experiencing...non of us like to suffer...although we are told to count it all joy. I don't think that means God is telling us to have a jolly time when we are hurting or to be fearful or distrusting of God when He takes someone under trial.....This sounds cold and cruel I am sure, but it is not meant that way at all..All I want to bring is hope and confirm what Bobby wrote to Victoria....God is in control.....I  pray that God remove my weakened  faith in HIM as I fear what I do not know or understand is happening. ???.... I know this is Unrighteous!....

Hi Arcturus,
God knows what we have need of before we even ask Him, but I once prayed that He would increase my faith, and He did just that!
I still marvel when I think about it!  How awesome is He? Beyond my wildest imagination! Wow!

Deborah-Leigh:
Hi Marie

Yes you are right to ask God to increase your faith and that He gave you that desire and then satisfied it too is just like God. What He has showd me is that if I fear what I do not know then I am in for a bigger surprise when God shows me the extent of what I think I know compaired to what I do not know. What I think I know is a blip on His radar screen!  ;D  I pray for wisdom because in the scripture God confirms He will provide! :)  He knows I need it! He let me know too :)

Arcturus :)
