Beneath the Fig Tree; Washed by the Blood

Welcome to Episode NINE of Flame of Grace! In this episode, after being unsafely discharged from the hospital to a rehab center, Rowell is brought back to the ER the same day and the unending journey of advocacy for Rowell's safety once again began. After a difficult few days Adriana describes this moment as a “Red Sea” moment, in Gods infinite mercy and grace He delivered them in record time to be admitted and it really gave Adriana a new perspective on her faith and control of the situation. GOD WORKS WHILE WE WAIT! A lesson she had to live, as she continued to surrender her own will for Gods will over this situation. God sent many angels to guide and protect her and Rowell and the desire to just let go and let God, was stronger than ever.  “Wash me in the Blood of Jesus”she cried out. It always astounded her how detailed the Lord is when He sends help, it always seems to be exactly what’s needed because God cares about the details of our lives and just like Nathaniel under the Fig tree, He hears us even when we don’t think anyone does. Our suffering is not in vain and we cannot allow fear to confuse us of what it means when we suffer. 

For it is written: “For you have not received a spirit of slavery leading to fear again, but you have received a spirit of adoption as sons and daughters by which we cry out ‘Abba! Father!’. The Spirit Himself testifies with our spirit that we are children of God. and if children, heirs also, heirs of God and fellow heirs with Christ, if indeed we suffer with Him so that we may also be glorified with Him.”  Romans 8:13-17

May we stand in the truth that we are children of God and that fear has no dominion over us and that God hears us and cares for us and loves us so deeply He sent His only Son to die for us, so that we may have freedom. When you cry out to God know that He hears you and He’s washing you in the Blood of Jesus, bringing you closer to Him, cleansing you and pruning you through this suffering and helping us understand that 

“….The Everlasting God, the Lord, the Creator of the ends of the earth Does not become weary or tired. His understanding is unsearchable. He gives strength to the weary and to the one who lacks might He increases power.” - Isaiah 40:28-29

Join Adriana in Flame of Grace as we explore these troubling moments of her testimony and overcome with faith and see how God leads us!

Jesus LOVES you!
