This post is a question not a statement.
In Eastern philosophies they often mention this principle...kind of turns up in any karate/kung fu movie worth its salt...."when a pupil is ready...then the teacher appears."
Are there Bible verses hidden by the roadside into God that are cleverly primed to go off as we reach certain points.....kind of Lara Croft Tombraider-style...or Sonic the hedgehog or whatever.

This bomb went off for me when I was carried down to Emsworth by the scruff of the neck by a well-known English prophet. It was either this or stoning...so I took the former. Only to find God simply wanted to lavish his grace on me....and then one of the brothers brought this passage including "Enlarge the Place of Your tents".
After which, while enjoying 2ndleveldom to the full, God brought people my way who piece by piece put the whole 3rd level picture jigsaw together. One set of time release verses kicked in at this time : in Psalm 118 5From my (F)distress I called upon the LORD; The LORD answered me and (G)set me in a large place. 6The LORD is (H)for me; I will (I)not fear; (J)What can man do to me? 7The LORD is for me (K)among those who help me; Therefore I will (L)look with satisfaction on those who hate me. 8It is (M)better to take refuge in the LORD Than to trust in man. 9It is (N)better to take refuge in the LORD Than to trust in princes. 10All nations (O)surrounded me; In the name of the LORD I will surely (P)cut them off. 11They (Q)surrounded me, yes, they surrounded me; In the name of the LORD I will surely cut them off. 12They surrounded me (R)like bees; They were extinguished as a (S)fire of thorns; In the name of the LORD I will surely cut them off. 13You (T)pushed me violently so that I was falling, But the LORD (U)helped me. 14(V)The LORD is my strength and song,

I remember receiving this in my spirit and thinking well how could this be true
in such a nice church with such a strong Presence of God....?
Hmmm.....let's just say it was true...the rest is history. Emmanuel Ferradura went through the same thing in Spain, but when he visited us in Emsworth....with a "trying not to look too crucified" expression, he still managed to bring a teaching on how corn is made into bread
and as in the Feast of Tabernacles...this bread was going to feed the world. (Instead of asking me about this, post him on Facebook...but your answer may be in Spanish).

I just find it so interesting that Lydia Joy and Dan are revelling in this scripture right now.
For me...it is the embarcation point on the boat to the 3rd level. Cos you see the 3rd level is Huuuuuuge....and you need to expand your tents. Think MEGA!!!
---------------------
So to return to my original point . Can I just say that we have a lady in our church who when she brings a scripture, is always crying. Jacqui for those in the know. And the thing is this. Each verse of the Bible is so loaded with dynamite and grace and power....have we really got a verse at all, if it hasn't left our eyes totally welled up, and with us just feeling wasted!!!! So back to the soaking post.....MUSIC is the nearest thing we have to a spirit language in physical format. So it is no wonder that we are to use it to meditate and swoosh around on our insides these great verses of the Bible.

Great post Chris!
FYI - your link for Norman Grubb's book may need to be updated, I can't find the book like I did before, check it out......
"Have we really got a scripture, if it hasn't left our eyes totally welled up..."
THIS statement alone is a traffic-stopper...
Thank you Chris!
Awesome Chris! I agree with Lydia.
I believe that prophecy is often held in a time capsule of sorts...in fact, the first time I heard that it was out of Isi's mouth after I prophesyed something that released more revelation into the very vision that caused them to plant Jubilee. The second time was from Bill Johnson. As someone who has experienced this time capsule (as you have it seems)...I think its a very real principle!
Lydia - I've notified them. Someone has accidentally pressed the HTML button I think
Sheila -what a great phrase trafficstopper is
Ursula- Thought I was being original here....everyone's already discovered this it seems
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
It is encouraging to see you guys are calling by...and that the Yes I am link is being used. It is pretty dense stuff. You may also like to refer to the UnionLife main site of which the link is a part. Apparently I am "preterist"
but I don't think it affects my choice of cereal or toothpaste.
