Hi guys: i just wanted to give you a testimony.

you probably think I'm a brave prayer warrior or some foolishness that I go around speaking my mind and praying over people, but i'm not. I dont pray out loud. I'm worried I'd say the wrong thing. I know I shouldn't listen to the whispers but sometimes they whisper truth you just have to find the other half they are leaving out. so the whispering is "God told you that you are a prophetess so you have the power to bless and the power to curse with you spoken word, its better if you just don't speak." Remember most of my life i was surrounded by non Christians. of my family only my youngest brother has converted to Christianity and that was due to my sister in law taking him to church with her, not any act of mine except silent prayer for their salvation. Most of the christians (who belonged to the Episcopalian church) told me that there were other paths to God besides Jesus, though it didn't sound right I didn't have the words or courage to refute and rebuke them. Well I'm learning to speak the voice of Truth though most don't want to hear it pertaining to their lives. Nice idea the truth, except when it makes the person admit they have sinned and are in need of Confession, repentance and forgiveness/mercy.

No I refuse to not speak against the darkness. the other half they left out that I am learning to trust and believe is "God is in control, no matter what you say or do. If you do it with a pure heart and out of love, then God will understand even if you make mistakes. He will read your soul and not just your words and make it good and right before His eyes and so His glory will be revealed to the world. All you need to do is believe and walk in faith, that is all God requires of His people and His prophets."

So I know its sillly but I forget to pray out loud sometimes and this is a testimony of how important it is to say OUT loud a prayer for you family every night before they sleep. My kids have been waking up the last few nights, but last night I prayed out loud with them this prayer:

"dear Lord thank you for your many blessings that you have given us today and in all our lives. Please continue to bless and guide us. Surround us with your angels to protect us tonight from the forces of darkness and do not allow them to trouble our sleep. Lord Your power reigns on Earth as it does in Heaven and Your glory and Majesty rules the forces of Light. Let your light surround and protect us. engulf us so that we may shine forth and be beacons to call Your people home and back to You loving embrace. All this we pray in the name of Jesus Christ our Lord and savior."

Guess what!!! the kids haven't woke me up because of nightmares last night. my daughter didn't want to go to sleep until 10 pm because she was thristy, had to go to the bathroom, etc but normally one of them will wake me up at 2 am or something and i'd be a little testy the rest of the day and physically exhausted, but i'm actually feeling good this morning.

Anyway thanks for reading, perhaps I'll grow in faith and courage and be able to speak my prayers out loud to those who really need to hear heartflet prayers for them and their lives. But right now I'll just practice saying/typing prayers to you guys. :)

Dear Lord Bless this site and those who truly seek your face. Keep the wolves in check and make them uncomfortable attacking your flock who have gathered here for fellowship and to better seek Your will for our lives and let your sleeping giant rise and catch those demons by surprise, show the world that YOU reign and demons have no power over any follower of Christ, because you have said in Your Holy Word: the least in the Kingdom of Heaven is greater then the King of Darkness in this world. We are Your people Lord, let us see through your eyes so we may be your hands and your feet. Give us your heart so we may speak Your words to the world so the Whole world HEars and sings praises to Their KIng for HE LIVES! In Jesus name we pray, Amen

well here are some songs:

My theme song throughout High school when I believed in Jesus and believed the lies of the demons that said I was unworthy and did not act or speak my faith for my fear of failure and my lack of faith in myself.
I just took it one step at a time, cling to the hands of my Heavenly Father and His angels.

YouTube - Step by Step + Lyrics

OH GOD your are my God and I will ever praise you. I will seek you in the morning and I will learn to walk in your ways. Step by step you lead me. i will follow you all my days. I will praise you, Lord forever and ever.

confession: one of things that scare me is speaking out loud. I actually don't normally say much out loud to people. I pray for them to God in my heart but not with my voice. I think God would like me to speak the blessings out loud so the person will know it is GOD that blesses them not some other thing or being.

one of the reasons you haven't seen me on webcam, which i do have one, but haven't quite found the courage to get on and SAY the prayers, lol maybe tonight. we'll see. now to beginning the day in prayer and bible study, its now 5:41 am.

James 3 comes to mind

7 For every kind of beast and bird, of reptile and creature of the sea, is tamed and has been tamed by mankind. 8 But no man can tame the tongue. It is an unruly evil, full of deadly poison. 9 With it we bless our God and Father, and with it we curse men, who have been made in the similitude of God. 10 Out of the same mouth proceed blessing and cursing.

i would post the whole chapter but...i leave that to the reader to read it :)

we ought to watch what we say and walk in the Spirit for there is much power in the tongue !! it can really hurt us or really help us..just as Jesus also cursed the fig tree and it withered... Or when God spoke the Earth into existence... Praise Jesus

John 1
In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. 2 He was in the beginning with God. 3 All things were made through Him, and without Him nothing was made that was made. 4 In Him was life, and the life was the light of men. 5 And the light shines in the darkness, and the darkness did not comprehend[a] it
