God Promised, God showed me, God Told me.....
Ok, so I have a woman at my church who told a few sisters privately that God promised her a certain man she will marry. She said God showed her this man in a dream. Well, this man has been attending our church for a year now, knows who she is but has not bothered to approach her. In fact he has shown interest in another person.
I'm happy for her but really I'm not sure if this is biblical or not. What are some bible verses on promises? I wasn't under the impression God would promise anyone the affections of another person.
Remember-Leah wanted very badly for Jacob to love her as much a Rachel. However, God did not make Jacob love Leah instead he compensated for her neglect by giving her many sons.
Sometimes I feel that people in the church will say "God Promised", "God Showed me", "God told me" when its really their own desires they they WANT to be a word from God.
What do you think??
