Diamonds From Heaven - By Gavin Cox (tavistock, England)
December 3, 2003
God is active and living, He is able to surprise and amaze us, He is supernatural. The Bible calls God?s miraculous acts ?signs and wonders?. We remember at Christmas when the wise men worshipped, and gave treasures to the infant Jesus. Now in these last days the Lord is giving treasures to His Church.
I had the privilege of travelling to Seattle, USA, to take part in three days of glory meetings. The meetings were led by a Canadian worship leader called Joshua Mills. He spoke about being a worshipper and living in the realm of God?s glory, where His power is manifested. It was a most amazing time - I saw God move in signs and wonders, confirming His Word.
I had a personal taste of that glory. As Joshua preached, gold dust poured from His Bible, onto the floor, everywhere he walked. I saw people sitting at the back with gold flecks on their faces and hands, gold was everywhere. The presence of God in the meetings was tangible, causing people to spontaneously break out in joyful laughter. Even more amazingly, when someone prayed for me, the Lord caused a diamond to appear on the carpet next to me! I was completely amazed, as were other people who saw it.
he next day I went with friends to a restaurant and showed them the diamond, which I had in my pocket. I attended the next service, but noticed my diamond was no longer in my pocket! I remembered I had left it in the restaurant on my napkin! I was terribly upset! At the end of the service my friend phoned the restaurant to see if it had been handed in; no. During the prayer time the Lord did another miracle: He caused the diamond to re-appear on the stage! I was completely overcome by God?s love and grace, He had restored what I had foolishly lost. During those meetings two other diamonds appeared, even bigger than the first. I saw the Lord move in tangible ways, which as a Christian I find incredibly exciting and faith building. Jesus is able to save, heal, meet out needs, amaze and surprise us!
Since returning, I have had the stone analysed by professional jewellers, and yes it is a genuine diamond! As I write I have sent some gold dust to be analysed, it too, as previous test results have confirmed, will prove to be genuine gold of incredible purity. These things are real, a sign and wonder of the Lord?s power. This Christmas as you remember the story of the wise men?s gifts, give Him your worship as your own personal treasure. He too will meet you in miraculous ways. I attend Kings church, so if you want to see my diamond, or the gold dust, just come along! I?d love to show you, and share the love of God with you.
Have a glorious Christmas!
