Hi prayer warriors,

I have missed church for three weeks now and I am concerned that I may be drifting somewhat.I have heard that the enemy attacks christians who don't stay close to the flock.Please pray for an extra dose of protection till I can get my sleep patterns in order so I can make it to church on a Sunday morning.Prayers are very much appreciated.

Thanks,
Mooky.

Hi Mooky, Sometimes we feel the need to please others, if we are in a set routine. Do not be anxious or afraid it's says in the bible. That's exactly what you should do. The lord knows our heart , so you have nothing at all to worry about. Take time out for yourself because your health is important. Pamper yourself, xx Your lovely x☺

I haven't heard that thing about straying from the flock, but I think church is an important part of our lives.

Mooky, Just want to encourage you in the Lord... On the days where you don't make it to church, I want to encourage you to continue to have "church" right from your home. I know there are so many reasons why we simply don't make it to church & its true that if we don't keep ourselves "spiritually fit" at all times, we can easily let our guard down & be an easy target for the enemy. I have been through times where I would miss church three weeks in a row, but I have decided when that happens, I will still have church in my home, just me & the Lord:) I usually will listen to a teaching recorded or on the internet & spend time in the word & remembering to always give praise to the Lord for all the goodness He has blessed our lives with. I really feel the strength in my spirit by spending this time with the Lord on the Sundays that I miss church. I know fellowship is very important for our spiritual growth & staying connected to a church family really is important. I just have realized that if church is missed, I will still have "home church" The enemy cannot enter into your life unless you open the door for him. Keeping your eyes on Jesus & always remembering to have those "quiet times" with the Lord is priceless.
Lord Jesus, I lift up Mooky to you in prayer, that you will help her get the sleep that her body needs. Bring peace to her spirit & may she draw close to you at all times. Protect her from any lies of the enemy & help her to stay strong in You. In Jesus name..
