A Faith Story by Susan Naron
Something personal the Lord had just for me in this message is “expand your territory” was the first thing He ever spoke over me! How fitting is it to use in my first assignment As a team member with TTR! What an amazing way to begin this journey!
This morning while I was on my way to Lela’s house for Jesus and Java, I asked the Lord to speak to me…He brought this song to my heart…which is confirmation of what I thought He has been trying to reveal to me for several weeks. Continue reading “Let Go!”
How cool is it that the Holy Spirit showed Kyle Felke numerous women being drawn to me for counsel during a reviveTUPELO equipping weekend? He encouraged others to ask me how they too could disciple others as the Lord has allowed me to do.
Well, almost 2 years later I was chosen to shepherd the aqua region’s team! How amazing! The Lord equipped me through Celebrate Recovery for such a time as this, as the roles are similar to the encourager coach! Thank you Lord for allowing me to walk in my gifting!
I met with my financial planner this morning to wrap up some lose ends and he suggested I leave my retirement account where it was. He discouraged me from moving it, but I insisted because I kept hearing the Holy Spirit encourage me to break all soul ties with my previous employer so I may find true freedom. What is so amazing is God’s timing. I have only been fully funded as a team member with TTR for almost two weeks and will receive my first pay check from TTR on Friday! He is never early, He is never late, He is always on time! What a neat example of how God’s ways aren’t our ways and His instructions don’t always make sense in the natural. My job is to trust Him and be obedient regardless of other’s opinions.
Another important fact to mention is..due to my decision to move the money, I needed to personally go and get my previous supervisor to sign a document. This was not easy because I thought I had already closed this door. It would have been easier and less expensive to just leave the money where it was, but I wanted to be obedient So, I went, I held my head high, and I had the opportunity to shared how great our God is and how He has given me the desire of my heart to serve Him full time! He also used this as an example to remind me He will give me the strength and the grace to walk out His instruction! Amen?
I shared with my mother I had been having dreams about past relationships and the Lord used these to remind me I needed to return to my first love! As I was telling her this, she stated she noticed my peace had returned. She explained as a small child she recognized a mellow, even keel about me. This simple conversation lead us to Matt. 5:8 and Luke 1:46-55…because I was focusing on personal heart purification, I am coming back to the heart of worship…and because I am focusing on what is in His heart…He continues showing more and more of Himself to me!
What a fun weekend! My team consisted of Doug, Courtney, Yolanda and her daughter. We had First Baptist on the map that was given to us. As we prayed, Courtney felt led to visit her father. It was neat because Doug felt led to go to a baseball field and her father lives across the street from a baseball field!
She and another team member prayed for her father and healing for another one of her neighbors. Then, we went to check out the park. Doug went and prayed for a guy that was sitting on the tailgate of a pick up truck who was a believer and attended First Baptist Church!
As we were talking, a family over heard us talking about the Lord. We were able to share with them about reviveTX and we all prayed for revival and unity between the churches. I explained this ministry introduced me to the Holy Spirit and one of the gentleman encouraged me with 1 Thes. 5:23 “Now may the God of peace Himself sanctify you entirely; and may your spirit and soul and body be kept blameless at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ.” What a glorious day in the Lord!
We began Friday night’s worship with a shofar blast and then she blew for the harvest before we hit the streets Saturday morning. If that wasn’t cool enough…as you can read in the article below…the emergency sirens sounded over all of Dallas for 95 minutes Friday night! Coincidence, I think not!Continue reading “Do you hear what I hear?”
This morning was confirmation for me. During the Wednesday night Bible Study I have been attending, we have been discussing the “5 fold ministry” and “impartation.” Well, the Lord laid it upon Kyle to review Eph, 4:11 this morning during the men’s Bible Study. While he was reviewing each of the roles, I was reminded that Kyle from Indiana prophesied over me about shepherding those around me. How neat is it that Dallas might be the city known for incorporating the five fold ministry into TTR?!? Continue reading “Impartation”
This afternoon my husband called to share that when he walked outside a place of business, there were two young girls selling plaques. He explained they were from teen challenge and one had 6 months of sober and the other 90 days clean. The next comment out of his mouth blew me away. He stated “I prayed for them; you are rubbing off on me!” Wow, God wow! My cup runneth over!
Today was my first day as a team member with TTR! Oh how I love getting to walk out His calling for my life!
About a week ago, Gary stopped to help a young man who had a flat tire. The young man was running late to work and shared he was worried his boss would not believe him. Gary took him to Mac’s Tires when low and behold the young man’s boss was there. Gary spoke to him about what had happened and explained it was a result from what he had learned through TTR. The boss is a fellow believer and manages 7 McD’s in the Tupelo/Saltillo area. As we learned throughout the day, several store managers have been praying for unity and for someone to come in and pray for all the staff! How cools is it that we were an answer to several people’s prayers? We were only able to pray with staff at three different stores but have an open invitation at these 7 locations to pray with their staff and customers! Four people accepted Christ as their Savior and there were 2 healings! We walked around all three stores seven times while praying and then shouted upon completion! What an awesome God we serve!
