Vicki,
I have sold the Lord short as far as miracles my whole life. Recently, I have been asking Him to show me how to believe in miracles and in the miracle working God.

>> Some time ago, I asked if anyone spoke French on this list. This had to do with words I spoke, two words, only two words, to be exact, which I spoke in tongues one day out in my office. They were spoken without prior thought and were plain as day, yet, I had not even thought of speaking in tongues, or English for that matter, when they came from my mouth.

>> These two words sounded like she and gee spoken together as a single word. It sounds like she with a letter g in the middle. The second word was easy and was spoken as papa. I figured, since the two words sounded French to me, that papa easily meant father or daddy but the other word, the word in front of papa, was more than a little foreign to me.

>> Although you may not believe this, I pray in four languages when speaking in tongues. Of course, the most obvious is English; my native language. I also speak something which often has Spanish words in it and friends who know Spanish and asked me if I knew some Spanish when they have heard me pray. Thirdly, I often find myself praying with what sounds like a French accent so I easily recognized the two words as likely being French. Fourthly, I pray with some Asian language that sounds Chinese to me but easily could be some other Asian language; it just sounds that way to my ears when I pray. I shared this to explain why I felt the two words were French. No, it does not bother me if you don’t believe me.

>> I asked a lady in church if she spoke French the other day and she said know but asked me why. I explained it to her and she recommended using the internet and a translation program. This I had done but she recommended another one and I went home that day and tried it. I hit on it the first try. It said the two words were, in French, “papa is” or “father is.”
>>
>> Sitting in church recently, these words came to mind and I felt the Lord explaining that the meaning of the two words is “God is.” I felt joy spring to life within mean as I thought on the concept of God is. Stop and think how final, how absolute, how eternal, how holy, and how powerful those two words are. I challenge you to think on this statement of, “God is,” and let the Holy Spirit touch your thoughts. You may be surprise of the results.
