Afganistan prayer

8/18/21
My husband and I were praying for the world last night, with all that is now happening and as I was praying, I got a very clear picture in my head of a bright white, full moon. And the bottom eighth of it was dripping blood down onto a field of pink flowers, though they looked almost purple in the pale glow of the moonlight.
I don't understand what it means but I figured I'd share.

Woke in middle of night on 8/21/21 and He put this in my heart to write:
"I Am The Lord Thy God of Hosts! I set nations up and knock them down! Is anything too difficult for Me?? Sit silently before Me and be utterly astounded! Behold, just as the tide comes in and goes back out, so do I make nations rise and fall."

The blood dripping from the moon was trickling down into a wine glass until the glass was filled all the way up, then the glass was made to be knocked over and the blood that had filled the cup began to issue forth like a tide, over the field of flowers, flooding and drowning them out.
"Blood will be spilled."

Phone virus dream

I was on vacation with my family at a big house and was listening to my Bible Gateway app. I went to change the chapter or close out the app or something and I noticed the whole interface of my phone looked different!
There were all these spyware looking games and fun, colorful ads for more virus infected games. Stuff I had never installed. A lot of them had cutesy looking anime characters for their pictures.
I kept trying to scroll through them all to find my settings tab to get rid of them but the more I would scroll, the more useless games and ads for apps would appear!
It was maddening and I decided I would have to hold down my home button to get to the "close all" option.
I did this and all the crazy virus apps disappeared off my screen and the phone began unlocking all my regular apps I had already purchased and giving me access to them again.
Then I opened up my Bible App again and all of it came right back again! I was so frustrated by now and wondered if this was because I hadn't done a security update on the Bible app for a while.
I decided I would go to settings and manually uninstall all of the virus adware but every time I toggled the settings bar down, it would scroll back up before I could get to the uninstall option.
It even had this weird timer thing in the bottom left corner that was counting down for how long I had left in order to buy one of the advertised games.
I decided I would turn off the internet and restart my phone but it was really hard to try to find the wifi setting to do it. I finally did and then restarted my phone. When the screen came back up I didn't see the adware so turned everything back on but then it all came back!
I knew I needed Adams help and could have called him up from downstairs but instead I buried my face in one of the big, fluffy bed pillows of the bed I was sitting on and scream yelled into it in complete enraged frustration!
Everybody was downstairs having breakfast without me and I was up there dealing with this adware nightmare, missing out!
I was sure nobody would have heard me because of the pillow but Adam came up and asked what was the matter. I finally told him what was going on and that I needed his help to get my phone back to normal.
He looked at it and said, "oh, boy..."
And then I woke up.

Answer to prayer about asking God to show me His Hand in things

Ok, so I have to share! I prayed the other night that God would start to show me His Hand working in everything and my 7 year old daughter was grumbling to me about how life was so much better before her little brother and how he gets all the attention. At first I had no idea how I should respond but then God just gave me the perfect words and just spoke through me to her. I told her that she knows that's not true and that she also gets lots of attention and that satan was just being sneaky in trying to steal the joy of having a sibling away from her and that he was whispering the lies into her ears about her brother getting more attention than her but they weren't true. I told her that she can fight his lies by recognizing them and saying, "not today satan!"
She promptly yelled that phrase just then with great  gusto and a little later she heard my husband and I arguing over something dumb and she said, "you and dad need to say 'not today satan!' "
We laughed in recognition and told her, "that's right! See? Isn't he sneaky? Thanks Rachel! How bout you remind us and we'll remind you? We can fight satan's lies with God's Truth!"
She excitedly reminded us of how even Jesus was lied to by satan and that He fought it with The Word of God and she even started quoting some Bible verses she remembered on it!
I was so proud of her and a while back she was asking to be baptized but we thought she was a bit young still. Tonight though I am starting to see that it needs to happen.
So that's the first thing. Now the second:
Tonight I was praying for a friend of mine who has been under the bondage of addiction to something that is harmful to physical health. My husband and I just began praying like normal but then I started to strongly feel Gods Presence with us and I started passionately calling to Him in prayer that He would deliver the land from sickness and lead His people to shine His Light into the world that others might see it and come to Him too. That they would then be healed and shine His Light so that another generation would see it, come to Him and be healed and that His Light would be spread this way, in ripples that go out and heal the world.
Anyways, it was a powerful time and I guess I wasn't totally prepared when I asked Him to show me His Hand in things for Him to do it so strongly and quickly!
