Hi All,

Today the Lord did some turning the light on. Have found out that Dylan and I both have sensory processing disorder. We are both hypersensitive and Dylan is undersensitive in some areas. For instance I am hypersensitive to movement, can't stand it around me and Dylan is undersensitive to movement and can't stand to sit still, he has to move, which can drive me absolutely crazy or him, if he is required to sit or I don't want to do anything I have to just be. It is a nightmare and we have different things like that. Also he revealed to me that we may need to see a neurologist, here I thought the testing was over and now another area has opened up.

The Lord revealed how much he loves us and now I realise that the path we were on was because of our needs to be able to function and deal with our environment. He opened up a path for us to walk on, so we could grow in him and be fed by him and he just loves us because he just rescues us and frees us in so many ways. Everybody has given me a hard time about this path and now it seems that we have to be at home and we find groups, places with a lot of sensory input etc...extremely difficult to deal with, actually it can be a nightmare at times. I was told yesterday that my path was wrong because we didn't go to a church or a congregation, we were not answerable to elders, but I am so glad that we are answerable to the Lord, not man. Jesus said this and this is what I said to that person. The Lord answered that need for church and showed us online Church so we could be able to go and it would be a blessing for us. He also delivered me to this site so we could connect all over the world with our brothers and sisters. He also delivered work for us to do for him from our home and it is awesome.

The Lord also revealed the evil that I experienced in this town is still happening. One lady said to me that she had to take her children out of the Local school because it is so bad. People have stopped talking to them. Not only that they are spreading rumours about them and they run the local shop, this town could bankrupt them if they wanted to, and I wouldn't put it past some of the people to try and do that. I was going to the Post office when this woman told me that and I was able to just be there for her, listen and understand where she is coming from, give her a hug.

I have prayed for them, doing casting and binding work, I ask for people to stand in agreement that this nasty, evil spirit leave this area, because it is not only here it is in another three towns as well. People have been really hurt because of this behaviour and it needs to stop now dear Jesus, let the oppression stop dear Lord, in Jesus' name, by the power of the Holy Spirit, amen.

The effects of this evil had led people to isolate themselves, so now instead of us looking like the odd ones out, we look like a lot of people here. However we know why we don't go out, for others it is the problem with the gossiping and exclusion practices that creates a lot of people not to have much to do with anyone else. There are people that are really hurting and just don't feel loved and are so lost. So the Lord has given us this prayer ministry for this town that we can do at home, he has shown us that he needs us and we can be effective for him. How great is our Abba, amen.

I ask for people to stand in agreement with Dylan and I we need the Lord to do a miracle, or if he wants us to walk this path and deal with these sensitive, medical, oppression issues that he strengthens our inner man and we walk through this journey into his image and likeness and all things just fall away from us, or fall off of us as we grow closer and closer to him, in his prescious love and under the blood of Jesus, amen. ...

"For this cause I bow my knees, unto the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ. Of whom the whole family in heaven and earth is named. That he would grant you (us), according to the riches of his glory, to be strengthened with might by his Spirit in the inner man. That Christ may dwell in you hearts by faith; that ye being rooted and grounded in love. May be able to comprehend with all saints what is the breadth, and length and depth and height. And to know the love of Christ, which passeth knowledge, that ye might be filled with all the fullness of God. Now uno him that is able to do exceeding abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that worketh in us. Unto him be glory in the church by Christ Jesus throughout all ages, world without end. Amen." (Ephesians 3:14-21)

love and blessings in the Lord,

I will be in prayer for you and Dylan against oppression. May you and Dylan recieve God's promises as His word says that "we must believe that he is and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him. " and it also says that I will keep him in perfect peace whose mind is stayed upon me." Is your post saying that you will not attend a church at all because of having been hurt by a church/es?

Hi Grace and Faith,

thankyou so much. We find it difficult to go to a church building it is a sensory nightmare for us, not only that we can sense the presence of God not there. It is really bad, it is so dry instead of leaving Church feeling blessed, connected with other brothers and sisters, u leave feeling out of sorts and ill at times.

I have prayed for the churches in this area, especially the one here, Dylan and I can feel death there and we received the passage Follow me let the spiritually dead take care of their dead. I go into the Post Office the lady is Christian, yet she is really angry, I very rarely see her smile, it feels hostile as do a lot of the environments around here. We have trouble enough dealing with sensory input to try to have to deal with hostility as well.

The good news is, my friend reported the church she has been attending for over two years and also has felt what we have felt, was so excited that on Sunday she could really feel the presence of God in the church there for the first time since going. She said a person with the annointing of the Holy Spirit was singing a song and God's presence went right through the church. I was so happy for her because I know the pain she experiences.

Dylan cries in church, it can hurt him or he squeals in pain and it is so stressful to be around and people there look at us like we are interupting, yet no one comes over or lays hands on him or anything. If they really experienced, God, Jesus within them they would feel compelled to pray, or offer something, instead they reveal themselves, they reveal their distance and their weaknesses/inadequacies and this church here is not effective nor caring, just controlling.

I can feel a lot of emotional pain from different people also and I can feel a lot of stuff that makes it really uncomfortable to be around including the negativity, it makes me feel ill. In the local church their is also an imbalance, I noticed that all the people were sitting on the right, Dylan and I were sitting on the left. The church here desperately needs God's breath, life and vitality and flame to go right through it and especially his Love. The yeast of the pharisees is dominant and also every difficulty I have encountered I ask God where are ur people, and someone else asks where is God's people when tragedy hits. This person said to me, for all the crisis they had with their family, the minister over in his town only visited his family once to offer something in over ten years. I have been visited once in a year and asked to do bible study, yet they told me not to bring Dylan and he cold not telephone me if he needs me. Can u imagine how it feels to a mother with a child with special medical needs to be told if u come and ur child needs u, we would prefer it if he doesn't call as we don't want the study interrupted? Something is really wrong here and the Lord brought me here to pray for this area. Not only me other Christians have moved here and also have been required to pray for it.

So we don't go to church here, also I was told what I have to offer is not wanted or welcomed and I won't even get into what this person said to me. Also what they were teaching Dylan and I had learnt it long ago, they tell what is needed, yet they don't offer any how.

We do go to church when we are down in Sydney and it is the same one that has online church. For the first time Dylan and I feel like we are learning something. When we come home though we have to recharge, although last time after we were baptised we came home feeling rested, instead of stressed and burdened. We go to online church and also we are in the Body of Christ and the Body of Christ is God's church and I felt the invitation come, the call to come into my body, it was also at the time I came to this site, and it felt so good to be finally welcomed and have a place finally. Ever since then we received and have done more than we could possibly think possible. God delivers people for us to fellowship with, however this too places burdens on us at times, at other times it is wonderful.

I also would like some understanding with God's children, because I am tired of having to explain things and have people look at me as if we have two heads...this is what part of the letter from the specialist said:

Forcing them to participate in group situations which are so rich in the aversive sensory stimulation will only provoke more anxiety and perhaps lead to them being out of control or shutting down. She then goes on to say Forcing them to cope with busy environments would not help but make things worse, because there are underlying sensory processing problems. These need treatment with a specialised desensitisation program.

What is required for us to do is very overwhelming the program is huge because it is broken down over time and we can only do so much at any one time. We have been told that we will have to live with it and we can learn to manage it and it will be a journey. This is only one of 14 medical problems, that are all hidden we are dealing with each of them is awful, chronic and have been told permanent. It looks like there could be more all hidden, all to do with neurology. I also homeschool Dylan, because he can't go to school or learn in that environment and am trying to restore this home for the Lord, as well as doing the Lord's work and I have one pair of hands most of the time very little support and understanding, however God supports us and he helps us, this is nothing for the Lord is with me.

Hebrews 11:33-40 was the answer that came to me and is the answer, acknowledgement for this nightmare and so I walk in the Lord's faith, with his patience, courage and live this path that he gave us right to the end. Going to keep walking, for the Lord is with me...

Thankyou Grace and Faith for being here and praying for us, thankyou for offering support at different times, it has been a real blessing.

love and blessings in the Lord,

I am sorry, I don't quite understand your and Dylan's " sensory problems" but from what I read of your posts, it must be extremely diffucult for you both. Would your conditions be related to Autism?
My grandson,9 is diagnosed as mild autistic. He is better now, but had sensitivity and sensory difficulty. So, I can relate a little. He has trouble socializing somewhat. But he is a lot better now. I will be in prayer for you both. I am conccerned about your church situation. I will pray that God's Spirit guide you both into the right church where the truth is taught, the people and leaders have love one for another and you can grow in faith and knowledge of God and where you can serve God. I really believe God has a place for you either now or soon. Paul tells us in Hebrews 10:24-25 " And let us consider one another in order to stir up love and good works, not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as is the manner of some, but exorting one another and so much the more as you see the day approching." I know you have limitations, but I believe God can and desires to heal you and that the circumstances change for your better. He gives us the desires of our hearts as we trust Him and are pleasing to Him. You both need human person to person ministry and fellowship of other christians.

Hi Grace and Faith,

Yes our difficulties relate to Autism, Asperger's syndrome and several other things which is due to Dylan's nervous system and one another one that is rare (Dylan has at least 10 medical problems that are chronic and ongoing). It is so difficult, yesterday was a day of screaming, Dylan is in pain from his growing pains, however just prayed with the Holy Spirit and it stopped towards the late afternoon and I had resprite around lunch time. Not many other people understand our sensory needs, you are not alone in this. However found another lady that has the same problem, the Lord sent me to minister to her and to see her faith become a live with boldness and her eyes full of light, it was awesome because she was trying so hard to hold it together when we went to her.

yes we do need human fellowship and we do have that from time to time, however the Lord's call on our lives is stronger than man's. Jesus said where two or more are gathered that's where I'll be and Dylan and I make up two. At present we can not fellowship with the believers around here, there is a lot of stuff happening and the Lord is protecting us. There is a lot of false images about God, the Church and even about the word and some have tried to discourage me from doing the Lord's work. Legalism is strong in this area, and has had its stronghold here, however that is breaking as the Liberty of Christ is coming into this area.

I love you for your concern about us, You touch my heart...the good news is the Lord has answered all my prayers and has given me a figure of 70 weeks, so we only have to go through this another 58 more weeks and I can cope with that.

We will spend the next year in prayer work, doing what the Lord requires of us, doing restoration work, as he is working with me, he is also calling Dylan into prayer ministry...It is so important for us at present to have the Lord's influence in our life, without man's while our foundations have been set in place and Dylan and I continue to grow in him, I relate so much to Paul at present...Plus we can do without being around the negativity, it's horrible.

Correction is happening around here for a lot of different people. The ministers, pastors etc..in this town's community are invisible..when people go through crisis, difficult times Christians are not there...the limited beliefs are awful...for instance I can't help that person they are not a part of our congregation or be careful about doing this work, u may get hurt, think of yourselves first...nor do they have effect and therefore the church is ineffective and spiritually dead.

So here is my life line at present to other believers around the world, I love coming on here, especially when prayers get answered, amen Lord.

Also have some other christians coming into my life, however they are dealing with all sorts of stuff, addictions etc...and will be able to walk free within this year. While our lives are difficult we can't be with them because it is so stressful, only when the Lord guides us to.

The good news is what the Lord is doing is having an effect, my neighbour sent me a card and a fridge magnet in it "In all thy ways acknowledge God & He will direct thy paths" (Proverbs 3:6) and on the magnet it says "The most beautiful things in life can not be seen or even touched, they must be felt within the heart...what was wonderful I needed that passage, words for someone elses prayers and also these are permeating through me...I am also happy because my neighbour responded to the Lord...and it came after I ministered to this other Lady.

This whole town needs an overhaul and with God, he will guide me what needs to be done and he will guide others, because the town's churches are about to go through a correction process as well...

may you have an awesome week,

love and blessings in the Lord,

Hi Walter,

We are doing well and so far no pain for Dylan. What you prayed for we did this morning about 4 am breaking those strongholds and bonding etc...Thankyou so much for you prayers dear brothers. I also don't feel drained but on fire with the Lord's presence and now when I feel like I am about to lose it, I just pray in the spirit and all that pressure amounts to nothing,it is gone. So amen to you Lord and Aen to you Walter...

At present am listening to praise and worship CD and I love CCC worship songs they are so awesome. This one is playing and it is for u, for us I feel chills...

Faithful

I stand before You,
Run into Your arms.
Your everlasting love,
Is in my heart.
Now I've got a future
Written with hope.

Your goodness rains down,
Wherever I go.
You Word is true,
It cannot lie.
I can do all things,
When I'm by your side.

You will never leave me
or bring me harm,
I'll shout it from the mountains,
That You are
Faithful is the Lord our God.
Your love shines down.
Faithful is the Lord our God,
We join with all the Heavens,
Singing faithful is our God

At rese

Praise God. Keep looking to Jesus, the author and finisher of our faith.

Hi Grace and Faith,

He is answering our prayers...we have found a church, I feel over the moon about, he has shown me when Dylan reads he stops crying, screaming and calm is restored and there are so many great things happening....

Thankyou for being there,

love and blessings in the Lord,

Serenity,

All I can say is Praise the Lord for he is the truth, the way, and the Life!!!

The Just live by faith!

A scripture for you and your son!!

The Psalmist longed to be in the house of God.

Ps. 84:1-2
1 How lovely is your dwelling place,
O LORD Almighty!
2 My soul yearns, even faints,
for the courts of the LORD ;
my heart and my flesh cry out
for the living God.

Ps. 84:10
10 Better is one day in your courts
than a thousand elsewhere;
I would rather be a doorkeeper in the house of my God
than dwell in the tents of the wicked.

May the Lord continue to minister to your hearts while your experience his love and grace at this new dwelling place!!

I will be in prayer!

I am happy to hear that. I am sure you will be happy there and can grow and serve God there. The Lord is gracious and great. Praise God.

Hi Grace and Faith, John & All,

Thankyou for your support. I loved being there, however Dylan didn't. He didn't like the children's church part. They called to him in front of everyone and asked if he would like to be saved. He told them no and he said all the children stared at him. When he told me, he said Mum, I'm already saved I didn't want to go. I don't like the signs they have there that you need to sit and be quiet and you can't move (Dylan can't sit still for too long, so he really feels pressured). So I told him he didn't have to go and he can stay with me in the auditorium part. I felt the Lord's presence, however I was also aware of Dylan's discomfort and the unhappy look on his face.

The presence of the Lord is there I felt burdens for two people and the Holy Spirit was praying. One lady told me the Lord's presence felt stronger than usual. Dylan says he will still come to the church, I just want him to feel the Lord's joy that he can enjoy being there and praise and worship with everyone, to feel included and a part of the Body of Christ...

love and blessings in the Lord,

Serenity
