Over the last few months God has been working on me. I have been thinking about long forgotten things of the past that I havent thought about for years. Hurtfull things that has happened to me.Right out of the blue. But it is not just that. I also have been able to work through these things and come to terms with them. It even happens in my dreams.I have been able to let these things go and have peace. Have any of you experienced the same thing.

That is great! Praise God for Him bringing peace of mind to you :clap I will pray that God will continue to work in your life.

Well as far as my story goes, the last 3 to 4 years of my life I have fallen away and become the dreaded "lukewarm" Christian. It is something I always thought about and never liked but never did anything to turn my Christian life around. Then about 3 months ago God really began pressing things on my heart. I felt a need to be more in Gods Word, to pray more, etc... I began reading 3 chapters of the Bible a day and started have intercessory prayer and normal prayer. I really felt a change in me and a piece of mind as far as how I felt about my relationship towards God. Then I fell upon Rapture Ready's site. I always was interested and amazed by eschatology and this website helped bring that part of me out again.

In short, the last few months have changed me from a "lukewarm" Christian to one who had a strong confiction to actually BE one and to try to live a life that would make Jesus smile.

I guess all I can say is what perfect timing to come back and rededicate my life to God. I mean the world just seems to be stampeding to the rapture.

God started pressing on my heart HEAVILY back in October of 2005. It was/is such an incredible experience.

I am so thankful that you both heard God and listened and turned back to Him.

I too have been a lukewarm Christian for the last couple of months but in the last few weeks God is drawing me back to Him. I am so thankful for Rapture Ready and fellow Christians who share some of the same experiences. I am now reading my Bible again and praying for God to transform me into the Christian that He wants me to be. Every day is a struggle but I thank God that He has not given up on me.:):

I've noticed that God has been keeping me close to him lately. Just the fear of being left behind has kept me close to his word. Thank God for this feeling. I was backsliding months ago but i thank God he has brought me back to him.

I can chime in with the me too, too. :lol :lol

I was backslidden until July 2005. Since November, God has really been pressing me about praying and reading the Word. My walk with the Lord was never like this in my entire life before and I've been saved for over 30 years.

Yep, me too, rdy, the Holy Spirit has been working on me like never before. It's the strangest thing I have ever experienced. I feel HIS presence every day and am burdened to pray throughout the day and night. I keep praying, "I just want more of you, Jesus and less and less of everything else" and "make me the Christian you want me to be. I willingly submit. I submit everything" and I think he is answering in a mighty way. Can't explain it, but I know lots of others are feeling it too...
