During the last couple of months, I have discovered the book JESUS CALLING. It is an amazing devotion book that has facilitated my time with Jesus each day. My husband and I have seen the movie WAR ROOM three times already! Prayer or, more specifically, doing battle in prayer has moved to the forefront of my life. There are certain battles I have been praying about for a while, even years, but I wasn't fighting. I saw them as "issues", not battles. I now realize every issue truly is a battle in the heavenly realms and I must be more diligent to fight those battles in prayer.
The Lord has been teaching me this principle at this time for a reason. I have been charged with the responsibility of teaching women in Haiti while their children attend Bible club. I have asked the Lord to show me what to say; what they need to hear. This is it! We must realize that Satan is real and that he wants to wreak havok in our lives. He wants to steal our joy! It is our responsibility to fight back in prayer and trust God to fight for us. He is the victor!
So, for the next couple of days I will be praying and preparing. We leave next week! Would you please pray for me and for the women who will attend?
Pray for - me, as I prepare
- the person who will translate
- the Haitian women, that
nothing will keep them away.
- hearts to be open to the
gospel message
- Satan to be bound & tossed!
- the whole mission team, as
we evangelize, teach children
and lead in worship.
- safety & health.
- all luggage to arrive with us
and unharmed.
I say "Thank you", in advance,
for your prayers!
