Title: God Protects His Own
Post by: John 3:16 on April 16, 2005, 10:10:02 PM
(Tsunami Testimony)
We know that 80% of the town of Meulaboh in Aceh was destroyed by the Tsunami Waves and 80% of the
people also died this is one of the towns that was hit the Hardest But there is a FANTASTIC TESTIMONY
From Meulaboh In That Town Are About 400 Christians They Wanted To Celebrate Christmas on Dec 25
But Were Not Allowed To Do So By The Muslims Of Meulaboh They Were Tolded If They Wanted To
Celebrate Christmas They Needed To Go Outside The City of Meulaboh on a High Hill and There
Celebrate Christmas lowed by the Tsunami Waves destroying most of the city of Meulaboh
and thousands were killed The 400 Christians were on the Mountain and were all Saved from the
destruction Now the Muslims of Meulaboh are saying God of the Christians Punished us for
forbidding the Christians from Celebrating Christmas in the city Others are Questioning
why so many Muslims died while not even one of the Christians died there had the Christians
in-sisted on Celebrating Christmas in the city they would have died but because they Humbled
Themselves and and followed the advice of the Muslims they all were spared destruction and can
now TESTIFY OF GODS MARVELOUS PROTECTION this is a Testimony of the Grace of God and the fact
that as Christians we have no right in the World Our right is to come before God and commit
our selves to him Our right is Kneeling and bowing before the Lord almighty and commit our
ways to Him he is our Father and is very capable to care for His children  
PRAISE THE NAME OF THE LORD

John 3:16 -
I've read similar testimonies concerning the Hand of God during that tragedy and others.  It’s interesting how news of these miracles is confined to the Christian community.  Wouldn’t it be cool if the ‘Nightly News’ top stories were of miracles rather than of catastrophe?  How many more people would come to Him if the truth of His miracles were routinely reported by the traditional media?

God bless!

I think of this similarly to the Pharisees.   They witnessed miracles yet were still blinded because they were unable to admit their own unrighteousness.   I suspect if the nightly news aired such, all believers would be rejoicing while the rest of the world scoffed brushing it away with human reasoning, just like they did 2,000 years ago.

Mat 11:25  At that time Jesus answered and said, I thank thee, O Father, Lord of heaven and earth, because thou hast hid these things from the wise and prudent, and hast revealed them unto babes.
Mat 11:26  Even so, Father: for so it seemed good in thy sight.

It takes a humble heart to see the wonders of God....something the world lacks.

Grace and Peace!

The "World" does not want to see the workings of God. If and when they do, they will dismiss it as mere "coincidence".

I agree also....this sorta goes back to what I was saying.   Knowing the reality of Gods workings, would force one to realize their own unrighteousness.....which is why I think the world does not want to see it.

One fish at a time if necessary!  

Grace and Peace!

People always want proof. But they look in the wrong places, unfortunately.
God does good things for me everyday. I live in Los Angeles and sometimes the parking is really bad. There are these signs on the streets by where I live and if you don't move your car by 8:00am in the morning (on certain days) you will get a parking ticket. I forget everytime; but the thing is, I never get a ticket and other people do. This one guy sitting on the curb (he's there almost every morning) he asked me why I never get a ticket, and I simply told him "God is on my side, that's why". He gave me this puzzled look, noddled then said "ok".  :) I NEVER get a parking ticket... and yesterday I went to this place and couldn't read the sign, and someone walked by and said, 'you'll be ok, after 6pm you're fine'.
Interesting, the hand of God even thinks of the little things too.

Man I did not know that!!!!!!!  You are absolutely right it should have been reported on the Nightly News....they did a great job reporting the devastation that occured.  But Satan unfortunately has control of the media to a great extent.  He wants the world to feel all hope is gone, it's part of the deception.......give the masses a sense of hopelessness and they will all be miserable......we are not the devils friends he hates us....and will use any means to get us and is not above using the media.  Thank the Lord the good news still gets out to let the believers and non-believers know.  What a stunning testimony!!!!!!!!!  We need more of that, praise the Lord!
