Joshua 9:14
” They did not inquire of The Lord ”
As so many of my close friends and family know my husband and I are praying about opening a Christian Cafe……
Infinite Grace Cafe
We had a meeting with the owner of the building and she is willing to sell the café for an extremely awesome price. It is also in an excellent location….downtown Shinnston……
However, my husband and I know that big dreams sometimes are just that …… big dreams. Sometimes our dreams try to take us out of the will of God…. That is why we are covering this decision, this business opportunity with the blood of Christ. In Joshua 9:14 a group called the Gibeonites decided that they would fool Joshua and the Israelites into believing they were a distant land….( relatives so to say) ….. And they fell for it…….why because ” they did not inquire of The Lord” they did not seek Gods direction and they made a horrible choice !!!!!! Because of that one decision it affected generation after generation!!!!!
So my husband and I are not going to take the decision lightly. We are completely and total relying on God . We know a secret that so many do not know…..” That God’s decision that God’s answer is not the right answer ……BUT THE GOD’S DECISION AND GOD’S ANSWER IS THE ONLY DECISION AND ANSWER !!!!!!!
So I am truly asking that all of my friends in family in Christ to cover us with your prayers and agree with us in ours……
Heavenly Father, your word says a people without a vision will parish…..and I have a vision…..a vision that WE (you my husband and I ) will run a café named ” Infinite Grace Cafe” and do just as you have called us to do. To spread the gospel, to show a lost and dying world the love a God, to reach out to our community, to serve, to encourage, to offer help to the needy, and fatherless and the widow. Dear Lord allows us the privilege to impact our community in a way that glorifies you !!!! Allow us to do our part in restoring hope and help to encourage , educated, and inspire all to follow in the steps of our Lord and Savior !!! Lord God I know that my life is not all about me……….every trial every tear, every smile, every victory, …..my every breath in life is a testimony of God’s amazing grace and goodness…..it is to help someone else see, Or to hear and live God’s will out in their lives …… Without judgement……so Lord if it be your will allow finances to come our way to help fund our shop…INFINITE GRACE CAFE ….. and the support of our brothers and sisters in Christ that is so needed. God grant us the inspiration, the motivation, the right direction, and the resources to succeed in our vision that we believe wholeheartedly has come straight from the throne room of God !!!! We do not want no ” what ifs” no “maybe’s” no ” I should have’s ” but only I KNOW THAT I KNOW AND I AM THANKFUL THAT WE CHOOSE TO HOLD THE HAND OF GOD AND STEP OUT KNOWING THAT HE HAS GOT IT !!!!!! HE HAS TRULY GOT OUR LIVES IN HIS HAND!!!!!!! HE HAS TRULY GOT THE INFINITE GRACE CAFE IN HIS HANDS !!!!! Help us to stay completely focused on our goals and you, not stepping to the right or the left but only to follow you day by day!!!!!!! Implant in us the spirit of acceptance and an open our hearts to receive everything, every plan, every word, every up and down in this journey you have ready for our lives. And Lord, let us never get so caught up that we forget to seek you, for you. Let us always want, to completely desire to be in your presence and your will above all things. Seeking your kingdom first and letting everything else be added afterwards. Letting your love flow through us at all times !!!! You’re a great God, a loving God, and a mighty God…..I have no fear, no regrets, no other focus…….. You are my all in all and I will follow wherever you want me to go!!!!!
In Jesus mighty, holy name
Amen
