Tag: Prophetic art

I used to post my art on my old website, Jocky.de, which wasn't solely dedicated to my art. I now want to gradually post the pictures I posted there back then here:

Post from July 5, 2018:

I was home in Naila over the weekend to celebrate several birthdays. It was the perfect opportunity to paint pictures and hear what Jesus has to say to the birthday children (and to all of us?).

This picture gave me the impression that Jesus is calling us to look away from the darkness that so easily draws our attention (all the negative things, things that go wrong, disappointments, wishes that have not yet been fulfilled...) and to look toward the light, toward Jesus.

We can focus on the good things. On everything that Jesus is and has already done for us, on his nature, his character, his promises, but also on all the good things that have already happened to us, the grace we have been able to experience...

"Those who sacrifice thank-offerings honour me, and to the blameless[ I will show my salvation."
Psalm 50: 23

There is another unusual story related to this picture. At a gathering, a friend purchased an art print of this image and then left it at home. Her daughter, who was 8 years old at the time, had a remarkable experience with the art print. I have permission to share it here:

A short time later, my friend wrote to me and gave me permission to share this testimony.
Folgendes hat sie mir geschrieben:

"My daughter had a healing experience with your picture. I'll quote some of her words: She had “severe stomach pains.” She then discovered your picture and looked at it more closely. Because she liked it, she moved closer and closer. As she looked at it, she experienced that her stomach pains “suddenly disappeared completely.” She thought that was “totally awesome.” And I was happy, hallelujah!"

That alone is remarkable, that God heals through an image without anyone praying for healing. But it goes even further.

So I shared the report card in various Facebook groups and got the expected reactions. Nothing unusual there. But someone asked if it had been my intention to draw an intestine. I was surprised by this question (people see all kinds of things in my pictures that I never intended). Fortunately, I asked her why she was asking that. She replied that it would look exactly like the inside of the intestine and posted a picture of intestinal villi. The resemblance is amazing! I think that's really cool.

Especially since I myself have recurring stomach and intestinal problems and there are also recurring difficulties in this regard within my family.
