The enemy doubles his efforts when a breakthrough is right around the corner...I was reminded of this truth while reading a book this weekend. It made me think of all Hubbin has gone through the last few months and caused me to pray for the breakthrough that MUST be right around the corner!
Yesterday we were supposed to go to the lake with D for his birthday celebration, but he texted me at 2:30 pm to ask that we not go to the lake and just hang out instead. Since it was his birthday celebration we readily agreed.
When he got to our house he promptly told us he could be fired from his job for showing an icon on his computer....immediately my thoughts went straight to "The enemy doubles his efforts when a breakthrough is right around the corner."
Its a tough situation, and it stinks because he is getting ready to make a HUGE commitment to the Lord and take a GIANT step of faith in literally one month. Please pray that God works in this situation to bring Himself glory and D's good. If he does end up fired pray he is able to find a job right away-either here or where he is moving in a month. This weird circumstance clearly shows God's leading in D's life right now. Pray he is able to take whatever happens in stride while knowing he is doing what he was created to do.
I heard on the radio this morning that prayer is "the most talked about thing that no one does" in Christian circles....we talk about it all the time, we talk about doing it, we talk about our wonderful experiences and amazing answers to prayer. But all this talk is wasted breath unless we put our hearts where our mouths are and JUST DO IT!
Pray people, pray for Mr. D, He needs it right now. Hubbin needs it right now. And I am sure you can think of people in your own life who need it right now. It is my firm belief that the Holy Spirit prompts us to pray for people by bringing them to our memories and into our minds. Don't just think about them and enjoy the memory, PRAY for them! Take action!

UPDATE ON D: D did not end up getting fired. In fact, he got a call from an agent in Okyland last week and has a meeting/second interview with her on Friday. THe lady practically hired him over the phone! Yay! He has found roommates and a duplex to share with them as well. God is GOOD!
