You have no idea how many times I have laid hands on and prayed for our cars.  God was faithful to send me help if if it didn't start.  

I lost count of the times I was having trouble fixing a printer at work, laid hands on it and came back from lunch to find people had moved my tools out of the way and we're using the printer. Problems never returned.

We ALL stress over stuff like that, LK, and may the Lord bless your husband's uncle for giving you a price break.  I will pray you get your Jeep fixed ASAP.

Took it out Wednesday. No issue as I know of. Didn't go anywhere on Thursday. Then went to go somewhere on Friday and it was dead. No lights, no sound just dead. I check to see if anything got left on

That is normal for a totally dead battery.  

Real problem is why it went down in the first place.      when did you drive it last?

 

Took it out Wednesday. No issue as I know of. Didn't go anywhere on Thursday. Then went to go somewhere on Friday and it was dead. No lights, no sound just dead. I check to see if anything got left on like my lights. No nothing I see that has been left on. It is not cold out so that shouldn't be the issue. I have a love hate relationship with my Jeep.

Things can develop power drains that are normally on all the time that you don't turn off.  We had a clock go nuts in our camper and would run the battery down in three or four days... but the clock still worked LoL.   my experiences have been a short internally in the battery is usually the cause.  Especially if you got it at Walmart. There are many things that can cause it.  The diodes in the alternator can do the same.  The shop has tools to quickly isolate most problems.  It is good to have someone to trust.

Thank you. Since moving into town I don't freak out as much as before when I was living 20 miles from the grocery store. At less I can walk it here if I really need something. :D

Where did you buy the battery ? If it is just a year old you may be able to return it being it would likely still be under warranty. Most batteries last at least three years. One going dead in a year could be the battery itself.

The battery is one year old, but how old is the Jeep?

Could be as simple as the battery cable terminals at the starter or the frame ends being corroded.

Everyone checks the cables at the battery, but few check the other ends.

And though the battery is not fused, much else in newer vehicles are. So it could be a fuse perhaps  to the Electronics box, the brain. If so find out why  it tripped if possible don't just replace it and have  the brain go bad.

Did you have any warnings, engine "coughing" sputtering" etc?

Mostly  praise God for an uncle eh?

And it could be angels spitting on the spark plug wires to keep you safely away from the accident you would have had otherwise. 

If so, we praise God for the delays in getting to your destinations.

    • Exhortation - October 24, 2024

      Albert Finch posted a blog entry in Albert Finch Ministry,

      You are coming up higher in this season – above the assignments of character assassination and verbal arrows sent to manage you, contain you, and derail your purpose. Where you have had your dreams and sleep robbed, as well as your peace and clarity robbed – leaving you feeling foggy, confused, and heavy – God is, right now, bringing freedom back -- now you will clearly see the smoke and mirrors that were set to distract you and you will disengage.

      Right now God is declaring a "no access zone" around you, and your enemies will no longer have any entry point into your life. Oil is being poured over you to restore the years that the locust ate and give you back your passion. This is where you will feel a fresh roar begin to erupt from your inner being, and a call to leave the trenches behind and begin your odyssey in your Christ calling moving you to bear fruit that remains as you minister to and disciple others into their Christ identity.

      This is where you leave the trenches and scale the mountain to fight from a different place, from victory, from peace, and from rest. Now watch as God leads you up higher above all the noise, above all the chaos, and shows you where you have been seated all along with Him in heavenly places where you are UNTOUCHABLE. This is where you leave the soul fight, and the mind battle, and learn to fight differently.

      You will know how to live like an eagle and lead others to the same place of safety and protection that God led you to, which broke you out of the silent prison you were in. Put your war boots on and get ready to fight back! Refuse to lay down -- get out of bed and rebuke what is coming at you. Remember where you are seated and live from that place.

      Acts 1:8 - “But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you, and you will be my witnesses … to the end of the earth.”

    • The Simchat Torah War -- Is this a Water Breaking Moment of Revival?

      George posted a topic in Biblical Topic Videos,

      George Whitten, the visionary behind Worthy Ministries and Worthy News, explores the timing of the Simchat Torah War in Israel. Is this a water-breaking moment? Does the timing of the conflict on October 7 with Hamas signify something more significant on the horizon?

    • Understanding the Enemy!

      George posted a topic in Study Group,

      Understanding the Enemy!

      I thought I write about the flip side of a topic, and how to recognize the attempts of the enemy to destroy lives and how you can walk in His victory!

      For the Apostle Paul taught us not to be ignorant of enemy's tactics and strategies.

      2 Corinthians 2:112  Lest Satan should get an advantage of us: for we are not ignorant of his devices. 

      So often, we can learn lessons by learning and playing "devil's" advocate.  When we read this passage,

      Mar 3:26  And if Satan rise up against himself, and be divided, he cannot stand, but hath an end. 
      Mar 3:27  No man can enter into a strong man's house, and spoil his goods, except he will first bind the strongman; and then he will spoil his house. 

      Here we learn a lesson that in order to plunder one's house you must first BIND up the strongman.  While we realize in this particular passage this is referring to God binding up the strongman (Satan) and this is how Satan's house is plundered.  But if you carefully analyze the enemy -- you realize that he uses the same tactics on us!  Your house cannot be plundered -- unless you are first bound.   And then Satan can plunder your house!

    • Abraham and Issac: Pictures of the Resurrection, Part 2

      George posted a topic in Study Group,

      Abraham and Issac: Pictures of the Resurrection, Part 2
      Shalom everyone,

      As we continue this series the next obvious sign of the resurrection in the Old Testament is the sign of Isaac and Abraham.

      Gen 22:1  After these things God tested Abraham and said to him, "Abraham!" And he said, "Here I am."
      Gen 22:2  He said, "Take your son, your only son Isaac, whom you love, and go to the land of Moriah, and offer him there as a burnt offering on one of the mountains of which I shall tell you."

      So God "tests" Abraham and as a perfect picture of the coming sacrifice of God's only begotten Son (Yeshua - Jesus) God instructs Issac to go and sacrifice his son, Issac.  Where does he say to offer him?  On Moriah -- the exact location of the Temple Mount.
