First let me start off by saying I hope not to offend anyone. This post is send with a pure heart and the utmost love for you ladies. A little over a week ago when I read the post below (in bold) by Soon2BSands to Prncsz (when she was having problems with the wedding music in the church) the Lord told me to send out a post reaching out to you ladies for prayer.
Let me just go on record and say Satan is mad as Hell about this union and is pulling out the big ones to try and stop it. Fi and I just spent some time praying for you and your future husband. There's a reason he doesn't want you married and if I have to push you down the aisle to a version of Amazing Grace it'll happen... the enemy comes to steal kill and destroy and that's what he's attempting to do now. I'm not normally one to give Satan credit buy this time I'm standing up FOR yall and saying
OK SATAN... WE SEE YOU... YOUR ANTICS ARE NOTED BUT WE ALSO SERVE A GOD WHO IS A GOD THAT HONORS MARRIAGE AND VOWS MADE BEFORE HIM. WE GET IT... YOU MAD... NOW FEEL FREE TO GO BACK TO HELL WHERE YOU CAME FROM. THIS HERE WEDDING WILL HAPPEN.
*adjusts skirt*
SIS... ALL things work together for the good of those who love God. You remember that and you can rejoice in the adversity surrounding your big say.
We have your back and Daddy loves his children. Start right now speaking positives over your wedding in 5 ( the number of grace ) days.
*hugs*
I didn’t do it.
I was totally disobedient because of fear of misunderstanding and rejection.
Ladies I apologize for not having enough faith in you and in God!
So devil fear is not going to hold back our blessings anymore!!!!!
God told me to do this so I know that He has a reason and more importantly He has a blessing that He wants to bestow on the women of this board.
As Soon2BSands (Tasha) has stated above the devil is mad because we have decided to honor God with our commitment in marriage.
The enemy is going to come against us all at one point or another.
Whether it be to attack our finances, our job, our family, and even our relationship with our FI.
The attacks on us are evident in all the post that I see on here requesting prayer, jobs, guidance ect.
So here is what the Lord told me to do.
I am calling on you women to commit to pray twice a week for all the ladies on this AA board.
Pick a day between Monday and Saturday to pray for us.
It doesn’t have to be a long pray.
It doesn’t have to be a fancy prayer.
It just has to be an honest cry to God.
Then on Sunday let us all say a prayer together.
We will stand side by side against the enemy.
Everyone is welcome to participate no matter what religion.
This is a cry for prayer so God can release the power of His blessings into our lives.
God has something big for each and every one of us.
I am standing on scripture Jeremiah 29: 11-13
For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the LORD, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future. 12 Then you will call on me and come and pray to me, and I will listen to you. 13 You will seek me and find me when you seek me with all your heart.
I believe that there will be instant blessings that comes from this. God has shown me that the blessings He has for this group are like a raging river being held back by a flood gate. When we are obedient to His call for prayer that gate will be opened and a flood of His blessing will wash over us. So in addition to my call to prayer God also instructed me to do Testimony Tuesdays. (Don't you just love how down to earth God is.) I will make a post for you all to post your Testimonies of what the Lord has done for you. According to Rev 12:11 this is how we shall overcome the enemy. 11 And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb and by the word of their testimony, and they did not love their lives to the death.
So ladies will you join me? We all have the craziness of planning a wedding, or building our lives with our new husband, and of course the everyday things in our lives to deal with. But I promise you this will only take a minute of your time and the return you get back on this investment will be GREAT!! I can truly say that I have never felt closer to a group of women I have not met face to face in my life. When I first "lurked" on this board the love and positive vibes that I saw was a wonderful and welcomed surprise. (sadly black women are not known for being postive to one another.) I feel you ladies are like a second family. I appreciate each and every one of you, even the ones who just "lurk" on here. May God bless and keep you in this wonderful, crazy, scary time in our lives. Sending you all a big ol (((HUG)))
