Feeling a strange apprehension....

[nlt4him]

Okay, bare with me here... I am not a prophet, nor am I the type to go around saying that I have this foreknowledge or that. But, since yesterday, early evening, I have had a weird sense of apprehension. I have taken it to the Lord and, as yet, He has neither taken it away nor defined it so that I know how to pray.

Is anyone feeling this?

Yesterday I felt that way. And also angry. Had to pray about it (alot!). These are anxious days to be living as we watch and wait for the great Event.
Blessings to all my RR sisters and brothers,

I get apprehensive when I think about what's going on in Washington and how we, as a free democratic country, are slipping fast.

But I just watched Pastor Livingston and was reminded that God is stronger than all those who think they are in control. That as long as He is with me it doesn't matter who is against me.

I also find myself being angry more often. Angry at Obama, Muslims, non-christians, then it spreads to my christian brothers and sisters. These are tough times.

I was angry for awhile, but realized it wasn't doing me or anyone else any good. It did make me feel tired and stressed, so I'm just resting in His will now and enjoying the blessings He gives us.

I have felt a stirring as well, something undefinable but discernible in my spirit. I posted a thread in Christian Chat about "The boards are busy today . . . " about this very thing. I can't explain how I feel, but it seems that several of us are feeling the same way. It is easy to give in to feelings when we see the events of the world, especially this past week. I know that feelings are transitory and we shouldn't rely completely on them, but as we see events unfold, I think our excitement and apprehension may grow. Then again, perhaps things will settle back down and it will have just been another birth pang, and we will have to wait for the next one. But one day, the "next one" will be the last one for us!! Watch and be ready!!

I am feeling this too. We don't have alot of time.

I am a bit weirded out by this thread, because I too felt similar yesterday, and off and on a great feeling of joy unspeakable seem to well up in me, I thought to myself how great it would be to go in the rapture right now, I thought about receiving a glorified body, I think those thoughts were what brought me joy.

I've never posted on a thread like this, but I thought I would share this. I was just now writing my journal entry and was lamenting about Obama's actions and statements in Cairo.

I finished the journal entry by quoting Zechariah 12:3. Midway through the verse, I had a strange feeling and it is difficult to explain. It was anxious, apprehensive, a bit foreboding. Yet I am not really disturbed by it.

I am also feeling a stirring in my spirit. I was unable to sleep the other night and felt the need to pray for unsaved loved ones, the state of the world and many,many other things. Eventually after two or three hrs. had passed I drifted back to sleep I still feel the need to pray almost continuously. I have never felt this way before. I don't know what is going on.

[ThankfulHeart]

Feeling the same way here. I've been praying every day that my heart and mind be lifted to Him in praise and worship. Songs have been going through my brain I haven't thought of in years. And then, this morning as I was feeling discouraged, the song by the Imperials "Praise the Lord" popped into my head, specifically these lyrics:

For the chains that seem to bind you
serve only to remind you
that they drop powerless behind you
when you praise Him

He holds our longing hearts in His hands, and I for one cannot wait to see Him and kneel at His feet in praise and worship.

feeling it too

For the last 2-3 days I have felt this way as well. My friend tells me that our Spirits are at war with the evil around us and it is thick. It has been one thing right after another over here. I pray a lot. I haven't slept well either.
I tend to be very sensitive to people's emotions.
I hope it is soon!

I am just going to say "ditto" to this post and others I've posted on...I've no words left to explain it anymore....just "ditto".

[Witness4Jesus]

yep, so I am immersing myself in bible study. makes me more clear and at ease.

[Miggy]

My right eyelid's been twitching all day, but I might just be tired.

I've had these feelings you're discussing, but just not today. It's usually after thinking about the Rapture for a while, so I chalk it up to just general excitement.

Just going to post this............ I use Tim LaHaye's prophecy bible.... He says the morningstar referred to in the book of the Revelation could possibly mean Christians will all have a general sense, (feeling) prior to the Lord's return. He gives a much better explanation. lol Just an interesting thought.

I posted this on the thread Musician referred to:

Okay.....sympathy pains anyone? When a woman is pregnant, there are times when the husband will "feel" some of the things she is going through (back aches, morning sickness, head aches, etc), they are called sympathy pains. Then, when the husband is in the delivery room, and as he is telling her to "breathe!" he too will "breathe" with her as she clamps her nails into his hand. As labor progresses there is that small moment of calm, then they start up again, only getting a bit closer each time. As they come closer, that moment of calm seems to last a mere few seconds. What I have been going through myself, is feeling a very quiet calm and a sense of "not yet". Then I will go through times where I feel that same urgency you all feel (as I am right now) Yep....sympathy pains! Just my take on it.

These are the days Moses and all the prophets longed to see, and they died seeking what lies immediately ahead of us.
It is no wonder there are stirrings and feelings of imminence. Sometimes I think my spirit is going through a little earthquake, and is trying to find it's balance.
Somebody play "I feel the earth move under my feet" by Carol King.
Only our Savior has gone this way before, and the few (Enoch etc.) He took with Him.
This a new thing, and as we get closer to the day, the more real it will become.

I have goosebumps!
Feeling the same way. In fact my sister here and I were just talking about the fact that we feel anxious but can't say why. I thought that it isn't anything until I read this post.
