I am a police officer. I follow Jesus. He saved me.

This is a room for testimonies.

“Come and hear, all you who fear God, and I will tell what he has done for my soul.” - Psalm 66:16

Other people’s stories. Mine too. Men and women who met The LORD - miracles, encounters, ordinary lives He interrupted.

Not only people in uniform. Not a speech. A conversation, sometimes on camera.

I have tasted and seen that The LORD is good. I want this to be a place where people speak about the joy of The LORD - not as a performance, as something they have actually met.

If God has transformed your life and given you hope and joy, this is a place to say so. If you are tired, ashamed, dry, or hanging on, this is a place to be told the truth: you are not disqualified, and you are not alone.

You will find prayer here, and encouragement for people who look fine and are not.

“The LORD is near to the brokenhearted and saves the crushed in spirit.” - Psalm 34:18

If you have a story you have never said out loud, you are in the right place.

The part I can't shake is him getting up off that classroom floor and running. I lived some of this out in high school. I'm a grown man now...different roles, family, career...and being bullied didn't age out with me. People still try to shrink you when they think the room will look away...Classroom or work.

Proverbs 15:3...shows us the eyes of the LORD are in every place, keeping watch on the evil and the good. That walkway wasn't hidden from Him.

Heavenly Father, I pray the Holy Spirit comforts the family, and that their reliance on Jesus increases, along with their faith... That those who were involved in any wrongdoings are convicted and have changes in their hearts that align with Yours..in Jesus's Mighty name.

Did God Really Say? Yes, and it's always out of context

...specifically when Satan quotes it. The enemy always cuts out & takes scripture out of context.

Matthew 4:6, Satan says, "If you really are the God " he said, "throw yourself down. For it is written: "He will command his angels concerning you, and they will lift you up in their hands, so that you will not strike your foot against a stone."

Here, he is quoting Psalm 91: 11-12.

What does he exclude? The. Next. Verse.
Let's look at what that is:

91:13 - "You will tread on the lion and the cobra; you will trample the great lion and the serpent"

Satan leaves out that "He will trample the Great Lion (who prowls around looking to kill, steal, and destroy)... And The Serpent"

The Father of lies, or half-truths, always conceals & twists everything we need to overcome the Enemy.

@JohnScottysibj Hey John. Can we ask what's going on with your dad? I would love to pray for him, and would love if you could share a little about how I can direct my prayers?

[Paul Ülmer @thepaululmer]

@bongoey Greg... Does your dad have a relationship with Jesus yet? I would love to pray for him.

[Paul Ülmer @thepaululmer]

Joanie... another day of tests and still no answer is a long day. She wants to go home and she doesn't understand why she can't. I'm praying the Charlotte team and infectious disease actually find something they can name today, and that her parents don't have to carry the advocating alone.

I pray for divine wisdom for the medical staff, for patience with EVERYONE involved, and for an increase of faith and a decrease in confusion. In Jesus Mighty Name.

[Paul Ülmer @thepaululmer]

I am sorry to see this brother. I can't imagine what you're going through, and I'm sure nothing that is said here will help out your anxiety, grief, confusion, anger...

But I do pray that her passing, will be used for goodness. I pray your faith is increased, and for you to use your time to fine comfort in the Word, in scripture, and that the Great Comforter, the Holy Spirit will guide you through this. We pray toure surrounded by wise counsel, friends/family that will lift you up, and for Godly men to minster to you through this time.

In Jesus's Mighty name

Matt... Ethiopia is worth lifting up here.

Jesus was the best thing that happened to that kingdom in Africa. Not British rule.

Aksum was already Christian in the 300s under Ezana. Acts 8 already names an Ethiopian who heard Isaiah, believed Jesus, and was baptized.

Monasteries there kept the Gospel in Ge'ez. The Garima Gospels are still in Tigray. Some of the oldest illuminated Christian manuscripts we have.

The Brits later took books from Maqdala.

That isnt how the Word first got there.
Jesus reached that part of Africa early. Ethiopia helped keep the pages.

Super cool history recorded in scripture 🙌🏽

[Paul Ülmer @thepaululmer]

Erika... Solomon wasnt asking for a building that could hold God. Heaven cant even do that. He asked for a place where the sin issue could be settled.
Personal sin. National sin. Both destroy. Forgiveness is not extra. It is how you survive what sin does.

2 Chron 7:14 is still the order. Humble ourselves. Pray. Seek His face. Turn from OUR wicked ways. Then He hears from heaven. Then He forgives. Then He heals the land.

If a people wont turn, the next lines in that chapter are not a mystery. God doesnt keep blessing what they refuse to confess.

Israel forsook Him and He let them be uprooted. Captivity wasnt random. It was what unrepented sin already was doing.

I’m praying we don't skip "turn" and still expect the healing.

[Paul Ülmer @thepaululmer]

Danny... the struggles real and you said it plain.
Praying your mom feels seen and loved by her Heavenly Father.. and you do not have to hold it alone.
Jesus stays in the rooms that feel heavy.
Increase Danny's, Give him the words To say And to speak life into her. I pray that Danny Will be guided by the Holy Spirit on How to Help out his mom. I pray hedge of protection over her in Jesus mighty name

[Paul Ülmer @thepaululmer]

Heavenly Father, You see every person who will scroll @WallStreetApes clip about Houston. You see the comments that will stay angry. You see the Muslims who will feel hunted. You see the Christians who will only type and never go.

Reveal Jesus. The Man in the white robe. Not a party. Not a panic. Him. Give Houston believers courage to walk toward mosques and neighbors with the gospel, led by the Holy Spirit, not by the comment section, to spread The Good News. Allow these missionaries to be used to change hardened hearts to soften and to align with Yours Lord.

Soften hearts. Give divine wisdom and discernment. Touch the ones who do not know You yet. In Jesus's mighty name.

[Paul Ülmer @thepaululmer]

@JWheelertv @realDailyWire Heavenly Father, I pray for this woman to be touched by the Holy Spirit, to soften her heart and to guide her back into your Word, Lord. I pray for her to receive divine wisdom, revelation, and for her to submit to You; to have complete reliance on you. In Jesus's mighty name.

[Paul Ülmer @thepaululmer]

@JTMuscle271752 God is good in the all-clear!

He is still God even when the report is worse.

Tonight we can just say thank You with you Sir 🙌🏽
Praise His name, sing a worship song to Him. He's worthy of it all 🔥

[Paul Ülmer @thepaululmer]

@derekgilbert A small choir in a hallway is NOT small whenthe name is Jesus.

Let that be the loudest thing in the room tonight 🔥

[Paul Ülmer @thepaululmer]

@Zachariah998754 My understanding is that the enemy leaves those alone...doesn't temp those who are a threat to him.

God has a plan for you, and Satan is tempting you to sin, because he knows the true King wants to use you brother.

[Paul Ülmer @thepaululmer]

Freedom doesn’t start after the last repeat.
It starts when you come again.
Jesus... Zac asked. Meet him in the loop, not after he climbs out.

I pray for his spiritual ears and spiritual eyes to grow stronger and more sensitive to You, Holy Spirit...to Your whispers and guidance.

Remind Zac to meditate and read your Word, in Ephesians 6...and give him wisdom to understand what it truly means to wear all parts of the Armor of God.

Give him Divine protection, in Jesus's mighty name.

[Paul Ülmer @thepaululmer]

Kristina... hospital waiting plus that kind of anxiety is a lot for one night.

Heavenly Father... be with Kristina's mom in that room. Whatever the medical issue is, we pray in Jesus might name, she will be stable, she will be healed.

Give Kristina one stretch of calm and comfort that she doesnt have to manufacture on her own. Carry her burdens Lord. Remind her that You are present, there, with them.

[Paul Ülmer @thepaululmer]

@DabbieElla Amen Dabbie... thats the whole fight
Shame says hide...That's the father of lies. Jesus says come...He's echoing our Heavenly Father.

Im asking Him to make the second one louder tonight, for you and anyone else struggling with this.

[Paul Ülmer @thepaululmer]

"Was supposed to die" is not a punch line. Its a mercy sentence. It's grace.

Jesus... finish the healing in Clayton’s brain. Wisdom for the people treating him, and let this be a living testimony. Use this story for your Kingdom 🙌🏽 And bring comfort to friends and family surrounding him. Increase their faith in You, and reveal Yourself to those who don't know You yet.

[Paul Ülmer @thepaululmer]

@tim_cook What holds us is older than a camera.

Jesus holds when the picture cant. Grateful for work that points at humanity, not just product 🙌🏽
