Nothing to report, yet. Haven't really exercised my new ability, though, that I recall. Will have to think of something to test it with. Any suggestions?
Thought about it too late, but I should have spoken that the Giants would win the World Series in a sweep.
You are not going to believe this, bb! I put the curse to the test. Our dog has a lick granuloma on her back foot. Had it for months. Maybe a year. When she is allowed to lick it, it gets worse. Gets bigger, deeper, raw, red. She's on antibiotics for it, and she wears a cone collar. BTW, we've tried lots of collars, and the one she has now works best, but even that one isn't perfect: she can, if we're not watching her 24x7, bend around just right so she can reach the sore.
OK, two days ago, I told her she would not lick her sore anymore. I was earnest. Well, guess what! She didn't lick it all that day! Next day, she did. Pretty bad, too.
So, the curse didn't work.
Told you you wouldn't believe it!

Thanking God for my snow boots,
that I doubted then, and another
believed for me. No, I did not believe;
or, I believed just what you believe;
at least until the moment my little
sister opened her mouth, there
in the car, and made the boots manifest.
I would have waited until I saw them,
but for past experience. I missed what
you would have said/thought there in
the car () and confess that I don't
really get it most of the time, either,
I just say I do.
What if snow boots hadn't been
"God's will" for me? Certainly a more
or less selfish request...but ever since
the day I was saved, when that nickel
manifest in that restaurant, my fleece
answered, I've known something, Timmy.
I just don't really get how I could unknow it?
I mean, I'm herding goats already! You'd
think that would make it pretty hard for me to
utter any stray ignorance...weird. It did for a while;
or more precisely, I guess it came out only around
my mom and sis, hmm...
Anyway, you know everything I know, so...
what would you have said in the car?
To this imaginary whatever, fairy tale,
that you nonetheless were certain was
already manifest? Maybe due to two
being in agreement? Hmm; yup.
So, what principle was/is violated
when two were in agreement on
_______? Your brother, for instance.
Sometimes we speak (or ask/pray) something and it happens. Sometimes it doesn't happen. When it does, we are impressed and we remember it, talk about about it. We (sometimes) believe it happened because of what we spoke or prayed. What would I have said? Most likely "wow!" or something. It would be a somewhat amazing coincidence. (IMO )
When we speak or pray something and it doesn't happen, we may come up with a reason. And excuse. And most importantly, we aren't impressed. We don't talk about it. We don't remember it for very long. And if we want to believe that our speaking or praying actually causes things to happen that otherwise would not have happened, we sure don't post about it!
There was no violation of a principle, that I know of, when my brother died of cancer. It would most likely not be helpful for you to speculate about that. You didn't know him. He wasn't perfect, but he was a good father and would have been an awesome grandfather. He got to see his first granddaughter before he died. He has 9 grandkids now. They are not better off without him, IMO, and if you disagree, you should just keep it to yourself.

Oh, ps. This curse can also be a blessing, btw;
it's completely up to the end user. And, it is a
universal curse/blessing. It works for anyone,
regardless of whether they want it to or not;
just ask their familiars
No time to answer the above right now,
but from a quick scan I'll have to say
that the only proof I have to the
contrary is that you are here?
Or, then why was I suddenly
willing to bet my life that
those boots would be there?
Hmm, or maybe even "whether
you think you can, or not, you're right?"
And maybe that is the whole idea? Hmm

Yes, the opening here seems to be what most are left with, in seeming defiance of Scripture, which you define in the middle. This completely denies Scripture, AND YOUR FAMILIARS, who would agree that you, Timmy, are getting just what you speak, just like everyone else; whether more or less literally in the exact moment is irrelevant, imo.
As to the last, I can't really speak to it; I meant to address what was surely the "agreement" in his healing prayers, since he apparently died in order? But maybe not; any parents still alive at the time? And still, this is not any proof that HE was being cursed (but maybe parents).
But please don't take that wrong, either. Most "Christians" die the sin unto death, I'm pretty sure. I don't think this affects salvation.
