She is fragile due to abuse, abandonment and disappointments in her early years. A dear sister in the Lord.

Today, she had an unexpected setback. She was starting to reach out, wanting to trust and quick as a slap - it seems the person betrayed her fragile trust. We do not know why or even what was behind this.

Prayer: what plaques her will be bound and tossed aside
her eyes will be on the God of Creation not this world
she see beyond her pain and stop the fear
calm down
and find close fellowship


as for what set her back, it makes no sense, so i am just guessing we are talking demonic activity here and if so, then that person needs some real prayer too! and no one seems to know anything about them....

thanks.

Praying for her in Jesus Christ is Lord.
In witness, from one whos heart was broken and crushed by abuse.
Tell her that Jesus doesnt just heal her heart, He gives her a new one made from His Spirit, strong and filled with His protective and perfect love.

God bless

Chip--thank you! :)
It would take pages for me to write what I have prayed for this dear lady...
so in deference to those who come after me, I'll keep it between the Lord and me.

I thank our faithful God---He is near to the brokenhearted. (Psalm 34:18) A bruised reed He will not break, and a dimly burning wick He will not extinguish. ♥
(Isaiah:42:3; Matthew 12:20)
One of our daughters has been betrayed by friends to the point she spent a few years not wanting any friend other than her sister.
Thank God! she is beginning to want to reach out again. My husband and I prayed for her, and spoke with her about the situation, and we could see no unforgiveness in her heart. We asked others (at church, people we knew would be honest with us) and no one could see sin...just a time of being alone (with Jesus :) ).

I pray this lady will also have this experience--that, after spending time with the Trustworthy One, she will reach out again. I did ask God to show her IF there is unforgiveness in her heart toward any...from any time, for her own sake, that no bitterness take root in her. I know from experience this can be such a subtle thing. (I think I prayed that because I could easily see myself doing that. :( )

Trusting the Lord, who is ever faithful,
ellie

Father God the restore of life, Lord when you have been walked on by everyone you have ever trusted. You come to the point that to reach out to people is to get hurt . Do not let her fear of people stop her from becoming all you have created her to be. Lord, reach down to her help her to trust you , pour your Spirit on her in a way that she never feels alone and know that come what may she can always find rest in you. Lift her spirit remove I pray the Spirit of bondage let her feel the lightness in her body and mind that comes from a close relationship with you. Lord heal the pain that runs so deep it has become the very anchor of her soul. The anchor that she was never met to carry. LORD I pray you bring someone into her life that understands and will be a source of strength and guidance to help her true inner beauty come to the surface. LORD as these mountains in her life start to shake it is a most critical time for her let her not run and hide within herself but reach out to the strength that surrounds her open her eyes to see this I plead . I pray LORD, that as you remove the hills that she see how far she has come and not look at the mountains that may still stand. The fact that the mountains are shaking shows they will to come down in time. In Yeshua’s Holy name I pray amen.

Isaiah 41:10 Don't be afraid, for I am with you. Don't be discouraged, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you. I will hold you up with my victorious right hand

Isaiah 54:10 Though the mountains be shaken and the hills be removed, yet my unfailing love for you will not be shaken nor my covenant of peace be removed," says the LORD, who has compassion on you.

God placed you in her life for a reason,
She is blessed to have you!

My heart and prayers go out to her!

May she value herself in the eyes of Jesus.
If what people say to her is not from her Heavenly father...
let it fall on deaf ears.
Lord give her Your Spirit dwelling in her every moment of the day.
In Jesus Name, Amen

Thank you for your prayers. I hope to see her soon and get a better handle on things. It really does not make sense and she had an emotional breakdown several months ago, perhaps it was too soon for her to out on her own again. sigh.

Shekaniah, no one is better than one whom has suffered similarly......
