Miracles of God Part 20–7 Years, Samaritans, Facebook & 7 For Perfection
1 year ago today, June 11th 2009, I was at Crewe Train station waiting to get on a train to Preston to meet my 2 sisters. Sadly I had not had a relationship with them for 7 years.
Samaritans Poster — It’s Okay Not To Be Okay
At the station, I saw a Samaritan's poster and immediately connected with the message, so I took a photo of it:
Preston Museum & Facebook Update
When I got to Preston Museum, I was a bit early. It was a beautiful, inspiring location and I felt led to do a Facebook update on my feelings having seen the Samaritans message. Here is the update I typed out at 8.26am:
7 Hours Later
My sisters and I spent 7 hours together this day. It was a beautiful, deep reconciliation. On my train journey back home, I was on my phone and I could see that I had received a text message at 11.08am earlier in the morning, from Rammie Vive.
Rammie Vive
I first met Rammie in October 2005. At that time Rammie got in touch to see if we could help them design a new website with my one-man-band PRWD, and we ended up working together. His company at the time were one of our 1st ever clients.
Whilst working together, we exchanged phone numbers and connected on Facebook. We finished working together in January 2007.
I met up with Rammie a couple of times since then, mainly at Manchester United to watch a few games, and once down at his home.
Prior to receiving a text message from Rammie on Tuesday 11th June 2019, we hadn’t seen each other or been in contact for around 10 years.
Rammie’s text message on Tuesday 11th June 2019
I was taken aback. I never expected to receive this message from Rammie, having not had any contact for so many years. I replied with this:
Wednesday 12th June 2019 — The Day That Changed My Life Is Today
I arranged to speak to Rammie on the 12th June 2019. We spoke for over 2 hours. It was one if not the most profound, life-changing conversations I had ever had in my life.
I shared with Rammie in a few days time on Sunday 16th June, I am getting Confirmed. I shared the following:
I know I am going through my spiritual awakening, and speaking to you today, it would be absolutely brilliant if I could call you now and again for your advice as I go on my journey.
Without a second of hesitation Rammie said:
Absolutely yes it would be a pleasure.
After the call I got out my journal. Here is what I wrote:
6 Months Of Gods Incredible, Glorious Wisdom From Rammie
What followed from here, over the next 6 months through 2019 as I stepped into Christianity and deep spiritual warfare, Rammie gave me a quite profound amount of his time on phone calls, chats and simply sharing wisdom and the Gods words — typically at perfect moments in my Christian journey.
I praise God for bringing Rammie into my life back in 2005, and bringing Rammie back into my life in June 2019. Rammie has been one of the most important people I have ever met in my life. The wisdom Rammie has shared with me since June 12th 2019 until today as I write these words is utterly profound.
What does the number 7 mean in Christianity?
The below is taken from this page — https://www.biblestudy.org/bibleref/meaning-of-numbers-in-bible/7.html
Used 735 times (54 times in the book of Revelation alone), the number 7 is the foundation of God’s word. If we include with this count how many times ‘sevenfold’ (6) and ‘seventh’ (119) is used, our total jumps to 860 references.
Seven is the number of completeness and perfection (both physical and spiritual). It derives much of its meaning from being tied directly to God’s creation of all things. According to some Jewish traditions, the creation of Adam occurred on September 26, 3760 B.C. (or the first day of Tishri, which is the seventh month on the Hebrew calendar). The word ‘created’ is used 7 times describing God’s creative work (Genesis 1:1, 21, 27 three times; 2:3; 2:4). There are 7 days in a week and God’s Sabbath is on the 7th day.
The Bible, as a whole, was originally divided into 7 major divisions. They are 1) the Law; 2) the Prophets; 3) the Writings, or Psalms; 4) the Gospels and Acts; 5) the General Epistles; 6) the Epistles of Paul; and 7) the book of Revelation. The total number of originally inspired books was forty-nine, or 7 x 7, demonstrating the absolute perfection of the Word of God.
Invoice number 7 — utter, glorious perfection from God
Recently I went back to the start of PRWD, almost 16 years, to see when I actually started working with Rammie and his company at the time.
Here is the 1st invoice I sent to Rammie, dated 5th November 2005.
Father, I thank You for quite simply everything You are doing in my life and the lives of everyone in my family and around me. Your word says God works in all things for those who love Him, for those who live according to His purpose.
I glorify You for Your miracle-working powers and for Your utter perfection.
In the name of Jesus,
Amen
