The story needs to be told to build Faith in my book and Faith in God.

NOW I SEE THROUGH A GLASS DARKLY: This style of preaching or story telling I call concept preaching, that is speaking from a conception or a conceived some thing that I believed came from God in the first place. This I call concept ministry whether I am right or wrong with this thinking it don’t matter I am going with it anyway because this is the only way I can explain. Let me begin by telling you where I was and at what time of my life this was. I was at the Manila, Philippines Airport around December 20th 2003 I was hot and sticky after a long hard, and hot day. It was time for me to go back home to Australia and I was on my way! I had said good bye to my new wife Erlinet (we were married December 10th) as she was not ready to travel with me because of a visa she was waiting for! So now it was decided that I was to travel home alone as my travel ticket was about to expire. I had lost completely my reading glasses a couple of days before this and I was having troubles seeing. I remember how I lost my reading glasses; I had left the reading glasses on top of a taxi cab as I was thumb ling for change to pay the cab driver. He drove off and I forgotten my glasses that I had placed them on top of his cab, just for the moment, but now I was without glasses because I had lost them this way. O.K. so here I was at the Manila Airport 5.p.m. just coming off the domestic flight to change to the International flight due to leave about 7.p.m. or so I was led to believe! This is what actually happened because I could not see too well I asked the travel agent on the domestic flights to put me on a flight to interchange with my International flight. However when I got to the Manila International Airport after saying good bye to every body being, my new in-laws and my new wife Erlinet and all friends there in Dumaguete. I was now very much alone not being able to speak the language and in Manila International Airport, ready to go through the barrier I was told by the ticketing personal that my ticket was outdated by one day and I would not be allowed to fly on that ticket. I would be allowed to fly on that same flight if I was to purchase a new ticket. However that ticket I was in precession of was now not valid at all under any circumstances. I said to all the attendants there that there must be some mistake, as I could not see to well the ticket I had asked the domestic flight booking agents to connect me with the International flights in the booking. I trusted their judgements, as I could not see; my eye sight was getting more blurred the more I would try to see. As I was told this new concerning my ticket my heart then did sink at first then as the reality hit my despair went into panic and anger and rage and desperation, more panic, feeling of abandonment filled my body, soul, and spirit. I remember feeling for the first time in my whole life so much alone, so it seemed, very much alone, and desperate. I was alone many times in my life, but never until this day did I fell alone. I remember thinking and saying in my mind (my God, my God, why have you suddenly left me) I said out loud what am I going to do? Lord Jesus Christ what am I going to do? You see this trip to Philippines had not been so filled with preaching or teaching the word of God like all the other times, because I got married. It was a sudden decision that I had made and now I was thinking maybe it was not with God’s approval. But how can it not be I thought with all my knowledge of the Word of God, with all that I had gone through with God’s teachings over the many years of study. My thoughts was that I have studied to show myself approved unto God a workman that needs not be ashamed at all. (2.timothy 2:15) How could it not be approved by God / he whom takes a wife, takes a good thing, and wins the favour of God? All these scriptures and so many others were flooding through my mind, as I thought to myself, is there some thing wrong? Why have I found myself in this dilemma, a predicament that I don’t know what to do next? So I knew as I was walking through the International Airport in the direction of the door and the hot sunshine out side. I knew I was to find myself a cool shady spot and start praying and asking God what am I to do now? Did I do some thing wrong to find myself in this predicament? If so was there some kind of repentance needed for me to find the mercy and Grace of God. I put Hebrews 4: 16 into practice here? Then it suddenly dawned on me? I was in not only a real test of faith, but a real challenge? Yes this was a challenge just like Job had gone through. I was feeling just like Job, for in Job chapter one we see that Job had not done anything wrong to be in this fight with the devil. It was a fight that Satan had picked a fight with God, and using Job Satan had said lets see if Job would stay in Faith or curse god and forsake his belief in God. You may not have heard the story of Job that way but truly this is what it was all about! And still is today. Yes that is Old Testament? Yes times have changed since then, we are in the new testament now/ but the test of Faith and the challenge of Satan, the test of the flesh or the spirit is still the same. Satan uses the flesh thinking to challenge the Faith thinking. All of us don’t matter how long you have been a Christian, or how long you have walked by Faith, don’t matter how much miracle signs and wonders you have seen in God. You will still be challenged by the devil to go to the flesh thinking. When the times get tough and things seemed to be going wrong the thinking is the most important thing now. So now I am at the International Airport and been told that I would have to purchase another travel ticket to go to Australia, I did not have any money at all I only had the airport departure tax in my wallet. I had no money what so ever, I had no friends that I could call on to help me. I called two people in Australia and was rejected by both as being joking; I was stranded completely, because I knew the family I married into was a poor family also. I did remember however that I had a brother –in-law Edward that I had never met, I was only told about him and maybe I spoken to him one time over the phone. We did not know each other, but he was told of my dilemma and my bad circumstances, and being stranded without a ticket. He said to me on the phone Brian have a sleep on the benches outside the Airport and I will try to get to see you tomorrow. So this is what I did, not knowing what I was to do next. I found a bench in the crowded airport and prayed that the Lord could restore my mind, as I rested. Yes it was crowded as people were not allowed into the airport too early for their flight, and if you did not have a flight ticket at all, then you were not allowed to be in the airport at all. So here I was in the crowded airport with people talking all around me, but I was able to switch off by Faith and go to sleep. I had experience in doing this, but not under these circumstances, but by the Grace of God I was able to do this. I believed that God was going to tell me what to do, and where I was to go now. To my surprise the night came in just like someone switching of the electric lights. I woke up suddenly it was 6 a.m. next morning, people was talking about Christmas I heard them and they was speaking in English. Good Morning the security guard said you been here all night he exclaimed. I said yes I have, I am on my way to Australia and now I am stranded because…………I told him everything. Well the Security Guard said what you are going to do now! As if I had the answer already? Well I said to him I told really know how this is going to pan out but I know if I don’t get this ticket validated then I will be stranded here for a long time. How long the guard said? (Like as if I was legally in trouble) “Like for ever I said.” The guard was only thinking of himself really, but then all of a sudden, he started to believe me like he never believed me before? So he said “Man you gotta’ get the message through to the management here that you are stranded and unless they serious do some thing for you, we have got an international incident on our hands that will make news headlines” This should have been music to my ears but it was not! However he insisted on me doing some thing to make a decision as to what I am going to do? So I made my way back inside to the managers table of the Philippines Airlines I am not allowed to mention any persons names here. But I did speak to the highest authority possible in the Manila Philippines Airlines. I found this man to be a real Filipino gentleman and after he could see that I was never going away. After 3 or 4 attempts of changing his mind. He said “you do your praying Sir I will do whatever I can to help you?” But it not up to me alone I will have to get special permission from 2 other supervisors that are not in the country right now! One off the supervisors is in Australia and the other in the U.S.A. and all 3 supervisors have to agree to validate this ticket for you to get home on this ticket? He went on to say “if this happened this would be the first time ever?” So I immediately went into pray finding a quite place in the International Airport was hard to do but I found the toilets to be the best place, it also had a power point so I could charge up my cell phone. Not that I was in anyway quite when I prayed I was noisy in so much a way I frightened persons away? From using the toilet at all. I was putting into action all the teaching that I had preached over the years including some that I have never practiced personally for years. Then it happened my mind became invaded with the thoughts of one of my favourite teachers when I was at Bible College, (names no mentioned here) my mind was invaded by the power of the Holy Spirit saying NOW I SEE THROUGH A GLASS DARKLY this has become the title of my subject here! When I was in Bible College there was a teacher whom taught us that we are to see what we are praying for and call it into being. Up to this stage I had only been seeing the black stamp over my none valid plane ticket and travel documents saying “NOT VALID” (to cut a long story short) this whole dilemma that some people would refer to as their worsted night mere, this took 3 days to over come. The main thing I was to overcome was the negative thinking, that the travelling ticket was stamped “NOT VALID” in big black letters. So the teaching I am referring to is 1 Corinthians 13: 12-13. For now I see through a glass darkly; but then face to face: now I know in part; but then shall I know even as also I am known. These are the words that penetrated my thinking; I knew one hundred % that this was God speaking to me! I thought to myself at that time, I should be rejoicing because this has come to me from God. So I did I started singing and rejoicing right there in the toilet the echo was loud and the devil got mad, I got removed from one place to the other by the faculties, authorities, and security guards, over and over, until they all knew me by name. Each time of course they asked for my papers for I.D. so now I was getting the full run of the airport, and people knew me by name. I became so familiar to the Supervisor because all these reports was getting back to him that there is an Australian in the airport and it looks like he will be here for Christmas. He is stranded here you know and he is a man of God believing for God to come to his aid, and so forth and that. I did not have to tell anyone anything any more every one was being told by the next person Filipino people are so good at that. So now it was up to me and God I used this teaching, NOW I SEE THROUGH A GLASS DARKLY. The teaching goes like this, the Apostle Paul was not saying the glass is too dark to see through, he was saying now I see through a glass darkly this is the way I understand it, The way of seeing from the natural to the supernatural or from the flesh natural realm to the Spiritual realm of supernatural, is seeing through the dark glass that the Apostle Paul was saying a glass darkly. I am not a natural thing for any natural person to see into the spiritual realm, any time we would like. However as we press into God praying in the Holy Spirit and using your own imagination to see some thing you need to be able to see, then the Spirit of God get’s involved and help’s you out! I started to press into God praying in tongues and worshipping in the Holy Spirit calling those things that be not, as thou they already were! I was doing that and all of a sudden it was like a jigsaw puzzle coming into being, just like I saw the black stamp going onto my ticket saying “NOT VALID” I started to use my imagination and see a stamp going onto my ticket saying “VALID NOW” and this is what is says in the column of my bible that the word darkly means (Riddle or puzzle and the glass is a mirror) so as I understand it glass darkly means a mirror or puzzle that you cannot easy see, says Paul. He did not say he could not see through it? He said “NOW we see through a glass darkly” meaning he could see through it but it was hard because it was dark. So here was me now seeing through the natural realm into the Spiritual realm, and seeing my old travelling ticket being “VALID NOW” and this is exactly what happened next. I was back on the bench this was the third day and Edwin had sent his wife to see if they could find me amongst the busy people waiting to go into the International Airport. By this time I had people staying away from me because I was stinking and had a three days old whiskery face it was obvious to everyone that I had been living rough. The bench I had chosen to sit on and sleep on was right outside the supervisor’s office, and he had me now in his sights. I was on my next visit to ask him if anything had changed today being the third day, I caught here him saying in English this man is stinking now and has a 3 day old beard looks a terrible sight and O yes! I forgotten to tell you this man is a Reverend a missionary to Philippines.” So as I heard this being said over the phone I knew he was talking about me to most likely one or both of the other supervisors. As he put the phone down he said I have done all I can do for you my brother, its up to God now! Will you please come back in 2-4 hours? I knew there had been a breakthrough I felt it in my spirit so now I had accepted an invitation from my brother-inlaw’s wife Luzvie said to come and clean up, at their home. I was only going into the supervisor’s office to tell him that I would be away for a couple of hours to clean up? As I told him that he said NO NO Sir don’t do that you will miss your chance here! So I said o.k. I will be here in time don’t worry. I went to Brother Edwin’s and Sister Luzvie humble house it was a very small house but I felt the love. The hospitality hit me in the face and they insisted that I was to have a short sleep in their home. Well maybe you can guess what happens now, they told me the traffic is so bad there is no way to get back to the International Airport until early morning so have a night sleep and then go back. So I did that I felt in my spirit it was the right thing to do, so I stayed the night we had wine and song and a good night sleep. The next day Brother Edwin had gone already to work, Luzvie was talking me to the International Airport in this Open Jeep it was great fun in the traffic. We got there I thought in good time I knew the Supervisor office did not open until 8a.m. But to my surprise it was open all night and the supervisor had been waiting for me, as soon as he saw me he said quickly give me your old ticket! I thought what is he going to do now tear it up maybe? NO> NO of course not I had already seen it in the Spirit Brian; this was going through my mind. YES what I saw in the Spirit happened exactly the way I had seen where the ticket said “NOT VALID” was made “VALID NOW” one flight only. The supervisor said there is a flight in a couple of hours get going now and don’t miss it? This story is a true story and happened just they was I have described. I call it faith in a teaching “NOW I see through a glass darkly” What do you see, how do you pray? Lord teaches us how to pray? Pray thy kingdom come, Thy will be done, how many times has this happened since then! Well believe me this was a breakthrough and everything I receive from God I receive the same way, and this has become my method of prayer now. I hope this has been informative and will be life changing, and bring a discipline into our thinking, hence this is another form of discipline of the mind.THIS BOOK CAN BE PURCHASED ON DVD WITH ALL THE MISSIONARY PHOTO'S AND BY THE HARD COPY SEEN AT http://www.revbrian1.com Written by Reverend Brian Richards.a.i.p.c.[M.A.C.A.] “WORD OF FAITH MINISTRIES INTERNATIONAL” AUSTRALIA. “Jesus and the Word are One”
