Prayer Answered! Update by Santi v. at 4:16 am on Tue 4/14/2020 Hi Prayer Warriors,
I need to share this with you all who prayed for Oscar and us. With his death, I was devastated. I was angry at God for wasting a life, a dream, a ministry. I did not understand... but throughout 2019 God showed me different things and He is definitely healing my broken heart. So here is it. I believe that Oscar made it to Heaven. Right after he died and I finished talking to the family, I went on my knees and prayed and asked God to show me where he was:
I saw in a vision that Oscar was standing in front of Jesus and he was totally confused as to what he was doing there. See, Oscar thought he was rubbish and that he did not deserve love nor forgiveness. So he was confused about standing in front of Jesus and Jesus said to him, Yes, you are here, because of the prayers of a faithful wife. The vision ended and I said to God that if this is true, please show me another two confirmations as I don't want to think that this was just conjured up by my crazy mind.
A few weeks later the mother of his first child - he had a baby when he was 21 - called me with a dream she had. We speak as our children are siblings and we want to keep the connection. She, however, is not allowed in his family so she basically only has me to talk to. I do because I'm not someone who hates for resents past things. There is no sense in it. Anyway, she calls me to tell me she had a dream about Oscar. Her dream was this: She saw Oscar in his room with his mum scolding him, he was dressed all in white. I said I will pray about it but the Holy Spirit showed me immediately.... His room represented everywhere he ever set foot, his mother represented everyone, family, kids, friends aquintances. Her scolding him was everyone that judged him and pointed out his wrong doings etc. But he was dressed in white - JESUS HAD WASHED HIM WHITE AS SNOW. This for me was my second confirmation. More time went by and about October last year, the third confirmation came. We were having a prayer meeting at church the one Wednesday night and we worship first.. as we were singing, the one line went: because of death there was life! and at that moment the Holy Spirit highlighted those words and I knew that Oscar was saved. His death was necessary for him to have life in Heaven. I don't know what happened with him in the hours before he died, but I want to believe that he cried out to God and asked him for forgiveness. As hard as it is, our salvation does not give us rights here on earth but it gives us life with God after we leave this sinful world.
To Nina and the warriors that kept us in prayer over this past years, may God greatly bless you. I pray also that in this crazy time we are dealing with this virus and everything that comes with it, that we remember that we are children of the Most High God that said we should not fear and promised that He will meet all our needs according to His Holy Word. May you find continue to LIVE knowing that He has You/Us safe in His Hands.
Miya has not found God yet, so we continue to pray for her salvation. She was born with a purpose and has received the prophecy of Esther over her life. This for me was a confirmation on a few things. God also gave me her name before she was born - her name means sacred temple and increasingly beautiful. Esther was chosen by God to lead her people and the King use to look at her and saw that every day she was more beautiful. Anyway, Miya needs Jesus. She needs to see herself the way Jesus sees her. Her heart is still so broken. She is in her final school year but has no focus. Please continue to pray for my child. I would greatly appreciate it. Thank you.
God bless you all. Sending love from my house to yours. xxx
Original Prayer Request
please pray for my partner and I. He got himself into trouble years ago and had to deal with serious consequences. Since then, God has been good to him and has made a bad situation bearable. Us praying here believes that he will not leave the place he is at until he has given his life to God. We are back in a new relationship after 9 years and I have had numerous confirmation that we are meant to be together and that God has open doors for us.
1. We have a 13 year old daughter 2. He's Mexican and I am South African - which will also take a miracle to get papers for his permanent stay. 3. He is stuck in Las Palmas waiting on the outcome of a case. 4. I'm stuck in SA - frustrated and struggling with trust - even in God, even with all the words He has given. I have amazing people around me and God is faithful. I see God's GRACE in our lives everywhere. My mind knows that but still the trust part is missing. Not sure how to. I have been working on it since the early 90's. 5. He has two other kids in Mexico - long story - but we desperately need his ex to find someone that will love her the way she deserves. 6. He cheated on me and I know he wants to change and I know he really loves me, but I have so many insects in my head. She's a manipulator. 7. Oscar's weakness - his self worth and the fact that he can't provide for his family. Not an excuse for cheating but he always told me how he didn't know what I saw in him. I loved him from the moment I saw him. Never been with another. Not even when I left him in 2006. 8. My weakness - insecurity - not feeling good enough - lack of trust
God says to me that He has opened doors that no man can close, He says that I have to trust him, He says that He will do miracles.
Yet I am struggling here. Devil knows where to hit us most. Even if I know he's onslaught, he still floors me. How much more to Oscar that doesn't understand his workings.
He's lost a bit of hope and I am not the one to preach to him as I will push him away. I don't want him to feel like I'm superior to him, if you know what I mean.
I struggle to pray as well. Best I can do is to call the troops together and trust God to confirm with someone and for us to get out of this as soon as possible. We're back together since Feb last year. I've been to see him twice but it's so expensive.
We have a business in mind for when he eventually get here. I wish so badly to have timings and to believe that it will really happen. We both are hoping but again, wondering.
Please pray for us. I thank God in advance for working through the chosen people. He knows my weaknesses and hopes. I have to believe He is busy. I have to.
