Hi
While I was elbow deep in dishes, staying at Alistair and Caroline's in Finaghy during SummerMadness, God spoke to Angie and I. That was July 2004. Some months later after discerning that it was, in fact, God we put our house on the market.
After a long time ('the first million years are the worst'), well in March 2005 I sensed that God was saying something about the end of the Hebrew month Nisan. I, really to be honest, didn't press in to hear God clearly on this and I wasn't at liberty to share this with everyone but Angie.
We changed estate agents, we tidied like crazy when people came to view...
Then in early 2006 Angie and I prayed about the timing of the house sale. I did sense that it would be sold by the end of Nisan 2006. God allowed me to share publicly that the house would be sold by the end of the month (the Hebrew month overlaps in March and April most years.
On the 23rd April the Pastor and elders of Cornerstone Community Church prayed for us, sent us out and released to minister in Belfast.
On Monday 24th the estate agent rang to ask could we let a couple view the house at 6pm. They came and viewed.
Tuesday: the estate agent brought us the couple's offer, below the asking price...We prayed about it and sensed that the asking price was a fair price, so on...
Wednesday: the agent heard us and put it to the couple, they agreed and offered the asking price. But we sensed that we needed to wait on God until 430pm Friday, I wondered about Friday and when I did a websearch found that Friday the 28th April was in fact the 30th Nisan. The last day of Nisan!
Thursday: we waited even though the agent was getting edgy.
Friday: we waited through anxious phone calls from the agent and finally eased his misery and accepted the asking price offer.
The house is SOLD. Sold before sunset on the 30th Nisan. Hallelujah Praise His Holy Name. The zeal (passion) of the Lord God has accomplished this.
