The title of the book, The Journey of a Disciple, gives an indication of the content to follow, but what was the reason for writing this history? For the last 27 years, the author has kept a journal of significant events and revelations as he walked the path of divine obedience and destiny. In stating that he walked the paths of divine obedience and destiny, it must not be assumed that the writer makes any claims to perfect righteousness or superiority. Rather that he has strived as all humans do, who have a desire to obey God, to live a good life by obedience to the laws of the gospel, inasmuch as his capacity has given him the power to do so. The path of a disciple is not an easy journey and has required much effort along the way. The writings relate predominantly in purity to the relationship of the disciple with Heavenly Father and Jesus Christ and give a great deal of insight into the individual's life and struggles, along with the support, love, guidance and direction received from the Lord over many years, while striving to stay grounded on the straight and narrow path which leads to eternal life, for all who are true followers of the Lord Jesus Christ. The book will comprise of (1) The actual record of events and reflections taken directly from the journal, (2) Historical information from the author's memory to give the journal extracts context of the writer’s life at the time of writing. (3)The actually recorded revelations from the Lord Jesus Christ to the author, which increase in depth and maturity over time. It is important to note that The Journey of a Disciple will comprise of several books and this is “The Journey of a Disciple: Book 1 South Africa.”
Genre: RELIGION / Christian Life / GeneralThe Book was previously published for a short time without any sales for editing purposes. The book has recently in the last few days been republished on Amazon and other online bookstores like Barnes & Noble.
This is book 1 in a series of 6 or 7 books. My intention is to write a new book every 3 to 4 months.
6 June 1994 (second entry)
A few days ago I had an experience which I feel that I should write about, but I have not as yet because I have been trying to fathom its meaning. I will now relate it and my thoughts of it:
I was asleep and in my dream Satan came and went inside of me. It was as though he were inside of me looking out of my eyes and his thoughts were my thoughts and I was conscious of his feelings and the ecstasy he felt in his evilness. The most horrific scene was unveiled before my eyes and his eyes. I was conscious of his incredible evil and of his insanity and his desire to destroy all of God’s children. Satan tried to press me in such a way that I felt that these were my thoughts and my desires. I was horrified.
In my dream, I said, “Heavenly Father please help me, please help me in the name of Jesus Christ.”
I was then lying on my side in my bed. I opened my eyes or thought I opened my eyes. On the far wall of the room, I saw a bright light shining; it was wide at the base and pointed at the top (like a triangle). This is my closest recollection of it. As I looked at this I thought it was a church. All fear left me and I felt calm.
Later I awoke again and got out of my bed. This time I was really awake. The room was totally dark. The thick curtains were drawn and no light could penetrate. Even if moonlight had penetrated it would never have been so bright.
Whether I saw this with my natural or my spiritual eyes I know not but I know that Heavenly Father came to my assistance. I thank thee heavenly Father in the name of Jesus Christ.
