Dazon, I hope you don't believe God tripped you up in that fall! Don't forget we have an enemy that hates to hear us praise God, pray and do God's work. Don't be surprised when you get attacked after doing God's work. It means you are a threat to the devil! If he feels threatened enough to attack you, what's that say? That you must be on the right track!
Next time something like that happens. remember to pray and ask God to rebuke the enemy and to protect you not just physically but spiritually. Look up the armor of God and practice literally putting that on every morning. Be aware of the enemy and his schemes and don't allow him to take your joy! Jesus used scripture to defeat the enemy and that's our weapon as well. But our defense is our armor of God.
Wow..do I ever have a chance to think about what I posted earlier to you, Pleasehelp....
I see how far I have to go in my limping walk with God. I want so much to hold on to what someone told me that Memory is the handmaiden of faith....when I have bad things happen and I find myself yelling at God...why didn't you warn me? I fell in the basement and that came up. I even yelled at him that I wrote some good things about Him in the forums & why did He let me take the fall. I said...I depend on You to take care of me!!! Where are you!
In the midst of my anger over experiences there are others to bring me back into line, that it isn't all bad....and there are things like you wrote that happen and I have had good things happen. It is my imperfect human nature lashing out in trying to understand.
I guess I am limping away with the thought that God's ways are not our ways! His may seem harsh at time, yet tender & juicy & sweet at others........
I am still glad that you & Teko posted your experiences as I will touch them in my acceptance of how God works.

Wonderful examples of how we can be reached in deep ways. I also believe warnings and ideas for change or the realization for it, teaching things, etc. come in dreams.
When God's word speaks of His love for us, we realize that there is no measurement for the depth, height and width of it......there is no end to His energy, His passion, His creativity ....His "______" in reaching us to draw us to Him.
I believe such moments are special "stones of remembrance"..."special touches" that mark us in such a way, we are changed!!!!
Thank you all for sharing.

Yes. The Almighty can communicate in any way he wants.
Thank You all so much for your response, I greatly appreciate it!!! :) :) :) I also believe that the Dear Lord God will send his angels to protect us and that they watch over us. :)
Teko, I'm very sorry to hear about your dad. :( I'm glad to hear that your were able to speak to him in your dreams though. That was very wonderful of the Dear Lord God to let you be able to do that.
Yes we all have angels that God provides 4us! Whether it be in the spiritual or by dream!!
One night while sleeping, my father came to me and told me he loved me. In a dreamlike state I remember his arms around me. The next morning I got up and noticed I had messages on my phone. My brother had called during the night and told me if I got that message I needed to come to the hospital. Well, I did not get that message and was the only child out of 10 not standing at his bedside when he died. Yes, my dad came and told me he loved me and told me goodbye that night while I slept.
I believe in just about anything happening in our sleep. Aint God Good!
Oh My sister YES...i hve never had it happen but yes God can do that and I do beleive hHe will send His angels to protect us...Praise God......brian
