I recently saw a video from a Christian creator about someone asking the Lord for a sign during a storm. According to the video, lightning appeared in shapes that looked like the letters spelling “Jesus.” I don’t know every detail behind it, but it made me think about signs and faith.

Today there was a thunderstorm near me, and for a moment I was about to ask the Lord for a sign too. But then I stopped and prayed something like, “Lord, I’m sorry. I don’t need a physical sign to believe in You. It would be nice, but I trust You either way, and I’m grateful for whatever You choose.”

Not even 20 minutes later, while I was driving home

, I saw a beautiful rainbow. I hadn’t seen one in a while, and it really stood out to me. I’m not trying to say I know with 100% certainty what God was doing, but it felt like a gentle reminder that He sees me and that I can trust Him even without demanding signs.

It almost felt like he was saying "because of your faith in me and letting me know that you're fine without a physical sign, I will show you one regardless."

Hi everyone! I’m a Connecticut metal detecting hobbyist looking to get permission from private property owners who may be open to allowing metal detecting on their land. I am originally from Windham County and now live in Middlesex County

I’m especially interested in older properties, farm fields, wooded edges, old home sites, or places with local history. I’m not looking to trespass or bother anyone — I only detect with permission.

I always fill my holes, remove trash I find, avoid landscaped areas unless specifically allowed, and I’m happy to show the property owner anything I find. I’d also return anything personal or identifiable.

If anyone has private property they’d be willing to consider, or knows someone who might be open to it, feel free to message me. Thank you!

I don't really think I need to evaluate. Since I don't preach in person. Yet, or maybe not even at all, I'm wondering if it's good to go into Reddit groups that need the Lord the most and try my best to teach about him.

I no there will be hundreds of people if not thousands who will be against me and get upset with me and everything like that, but I want to do my best to share the message with everybody I can to where if at least one person sees it and starts thinking and maybe eventually decides to turn to the Lord even that's a big win.

More rejoice if one sinful person comes to the Lord then 99 non sinful people. Luke 15:7.

I see people and I believe I know some people who have demons and are irritating, selfish, crazy, and very prideful and arrogant, and even people who seem to just cause trouble to cause trouble.

Regardless of if these people have demons or not, did Jesus give us authority to cast demons out of people? If so, how do we do it? It seems like it doesn't work for me when I try in private and say prayers.

I am part of the Southern New England relic hunters group and I recently joined last Tuesday. And when I look on their Facebook page I always see people posting about how oh I got permission to metal detect here and I find this and I find that.

​

I myself seem clueless on how people find these old places and how they seem to get so much permission from all these people to do things like this. I'm the youngest person in the group and I don't really know how to get permission from landowners or even find places that could be historic or have amazing things like that.

​

I'm 21, I have a touch of autism and I am high in ADHD, and I was wondering if anybody here could help me. I want to look for things like old military pieces and maybe things like really cool like relics and other things like that. Any ideas or thoughts.

​

​

So, just recently like maybe the last couple weeks, I got into the idea of not only wanting to follow God's will but also wanting to preach the message to people as well. I felt like the Lord was saying all right now I believe you're ready to try to also spread the good news.

So I have been seeing a lot of videos about people preaching it even if they're just shorts on YouTube. A lot of people seem very hating and pissed off towards these people that are preaching. One person had somebody up in his face and was snapping at him and another person unplugged the guy's microphone, and a lot of people that were lgbtq where he was preaching at were pissed off at him too and they tried to tell him that he couldn't be there. He remained calm and kept preaching and I was amazed because that's awesome to do under all that pressure.

Well, for this morning I woke up and I had this amazing dream.

Here it is: I was at my old church and there was a few kids with demons inside and I was brought there to CAST THEM OUT! I had no experience doing this but I went over to them and I kept saying things like IN JESUS NAME I CAST YOU OUT! GET OUT OF THIS CHILD NOW! BE GONE AND NEVER COME BACK. The kids started thrashing around and we're a lot stronger than any kid at 5 or 6 years old should be. Maybe 7 or 8. One kid went under a table and continuously hit his head against a metal bar under the table. I kept asking them to say JESUS IS LORD and they couldn't. They kept saying Jesus name in a distorted way that wasn't Jesus.

One kid I continued with and he was free..he said it 😭I was relieved. One kid couldn't quite say it but he seemed a bit more gentle and peaceful. I wasn't sure though but it was implied he would come back if it didn't work.

However, after that, I was at my house in the dream, and my door started randomly closing and slamming. My dad's truck was also getting shaken and attacked. It felt like demons were coming to try and torment me and my family. So I gathered everyone in my family up and we all said the "our Father who art in heaven prayer." The house felt like it was shaking and there was what seemed like growling, so I stepped up and I kept saying JESUS IS LORD. LEAVE AND DONT COME BACK. I think the door that was slamming came off the hinges and fell apart but that stuff never happened again.

Then another dream right after happened and I'm at some large haircut place in line getting a haircut by a huge beach lookout that's connected by a river. My friend TY jumped in and was saying it about it being cold. It was a beautiful sunset but the sun had just started setting and it was orange-ish gold-ish, I saw some amazing big shells looking down from the walking bridge that connects to the beach. Anyways what happened was I went into this haircut place to get a haircut and they only had enough room for one person left but there were like 10 or 11 people that were there and they all waited in line to get a haircut.

So I started preaching the gospel and some people were upset with me and some people were mocking me while others came closer to listen. They were asking me questions about the Bible and I told them that I don't have all the answers. They told me "we're doomed." I told them it wasn't a big deal because I don't have the greatest memory and I have a touch of ADHD and autism and besides, I also told them that even doctors have to look things up on the internet to figure out what someone might have. But they said we're doomed again if they're doing that.

At the end I think like seven or eight people left but three people's hearts came to me and I was able to I think change them. I told them peace be with them I think which is odd because I don't usually say things like that, and everybody then left.

When I woke up this didn't feel like a regular dream I woke up with a face like this. 😲

And that was everything that had happened.

I believe in the father, the son, and the holy spirit and I know that through Jesus, he is the way to when and he took the punishment of sins for us. I will admit that I've become kinder, nicer, wanting to help people out of kindness and joy rather than just guilt, and I do many things through him that I know he would be pleased with.

But that's not enough 😔

I still choose to sin at times and there's one that I cannot stop and it involves masturbation. I deliberately at times choose to do it without much resistance and I feel I only care about that at the moment in the act.. This has gone on for years. "How can I be reborn if I still choose to do things I know are bad?" 😔

I know the Lord has amazing love for me and I think about the story where the son took his inheritance and spent it and then fed pigs but decided to come home to his father in guilt, and the father wrapped his arms around him and celebrated, but that's not enough.

I know if the rapture were to happen today, I wouldn't get taken up. How can I be saved if I deliberately choose to sin at times? How can I be truly reborn if my actions are not? I don't feel the love really. I feel that he's waiting to strike me down, waiting to judge me, waiting for me to approach the judgement area and him saying "I never knew you. Depart from me." That's the worst part.

I know that he's not waiting to strike me down and that he cares about us so much that he sent Jesus to die for all of us, but I never feel that love usually, and I don't feel like I'm saved if the road to heaven is very narrow. If the road to heaven is very narrow, then how can I be saved?

I want to preach the good news and show everyone that Christ is the way to heaven and that he and the heavenly father are both very real. However, I always end up saying the wrong thing and turning people away more. I've only done it a few times but still.

I don't have any idea where to begin and what to say. I also forget things in the Bible very easily and can't remember verse names for specific verses. I love praising and praying to the lord and Jesus and the holy spirit, but I believe it's time to go farther and preach. Any advice?

I am 20 years old, I'll be 21 in June, I have ADHD and a touch of autism, anxiety and I take medicine for it, and a bit of depression. Just thought I'd let you all know what I have because I feel like this might also be hindering what to say a bit.

Now I know this is going to sound like a troll or something stupid but I have a pretty interesting battle. Both are alive, both are monster vehicles, and both are red, and incredibly powerful. Both also act animal like
