Hello Dear Brides, if you’re new to our Encouraging Blog, I want to welcome you to our family and church without walls \o/\o/\o/
Today is Friday, the day of LALTour PRs, and if you lost last week Praise Report, please click here to read about what our HH did during the time Tara spent in Australia— it was so beautiful just proof that He is everything that we need. I can’t thank Him enough for bringing me back, so now I can live the Abundant Life He has for me.
The Abundant Life doesn’t mean a life without struggles and trials, but a life of freedom knowing that He is in control of everything. I don’t need to be anxious about anything, of fighting with my own hands, sin is not attractive anymore, that He is the one molding me, and instead of fear the wave of adversities, I can continue walking knowing that He will use it for my good.
As many of you know, the Lord brought me back to my home country of Brazil to spend a time with my family. Before arriving I was really struggling with what should I say or do. I want my family to see my HH in me and I also want the Lord in their lives too. As I said, I do not need to be anxious but I confess that I still do. Yet He is the One who works in my life, so He gave me and my family amazing opportunities to testify about who He is and what He can do!!! I will be sharing more about what He did in my family in upcoming PRs, but I want just want to give you a short testimony to get started 🙂
I took the time to go to the doctor’s when I got back to my country, and one of them asked me for a lot of blood tests. When I went to check the prices, it was really expensive, and I could not afford it. On the way back home, I told my beloved HH, that I didn’t have the money to pay for the tests but I know He could do it, but if not, I knew He would work for good and heal me if I had any problem or disease. I told Him I would not be anxious and not even think about it.
When I arrived home, my mom asked me about my appointment, normally I don’t like to talk about my problems to others, but that day I felt lead to share. When I told her my mom was distressed and anxious about how I would pay for the tests. I told her that I knew He would do something and provide for my needs, as He always did, and that soon she would see His works!!
Then I went to my virtual online office to work and do what I love for Him. I could see my mom staring at me and wondering how the Lord would provide in such a short amount of time the money that I needed. Well, she didn’t need to wait long, just an hour later I received an email, telling that I was given not just a promotion but I was receiving a raise!!! Can you believe it?!!! It was so amazing, and is so the Lord to appear when we are in front of the Red Sea, that I started to laugh and my mom asked me why I was laughing and I shared with her what He did. She stood there with her mouth open, and couldn’t believe what He had done! We begin to praise the Lord together, and she also told the story to everybody what He did!!!!
Not only that she begin applying this principle in her life, and He is faithful, but she also saw the Lord moving in her own life.
Thank you, my Beloved!!!
But because He does far more than we expect, now that I was okay and had the money to pay the tests, He used my aunt to show He does more! She came to see me and asked for my documents. So I gave them to her and went on with my normal day. After a while, she came back and said that I could do all the tests for FREE!!!!! He is GOD and I don’t have words to express my gratitude to my Beloved!!! My mom that was already amazed at what He did before, and then this happened—so she was even more open to wanting more of Him in her life!!! Oh, Brides, there's even more—I can’t wait to share more about what He is doing in my family!!!
When I came to this Ministry, I found the Brazilian website, I was so broken at that time but He used the life of women who shared in their Praise Reports about their HH. It was not an easy journey at first, but today, together with them, I also have My RESTORED relationship with the Love of my life!!! One of my desires was to meet the ladies from the Portuguese team, thanking them for helping me at the beginning and the most critical time of my Journey!! And He gave me this present, to be close to the team, working together to bring the truth and love that we now know, giving this to other women who are suffering.
But as I said before, He always goes above what we can imagine. My HH made a way for me to meet Paula face-to-face! Paula heads up the Portugues Ministry and I was able to fly to RIO for a special fellowship meeting—that today I can call a dear friend and sister \o/\o/ What a beautiful and amazing woman, just as all His brides we've met have been!! Paula radiates His love, is full of His light and completely in Love with Him!!! We talked about Him the whole time, and He took us to Christ the Redeemer in Rio de Janeiro, we spent the day praising and thanking Him for everything!!
I heading to Turkey again, where I will be meeting with Tara again! I know that the Lord is about to do more amazing and new things, and of course, I’ll be excited to share everything He does with you 🙂
Please take the time to visit us on Instagram, we're trying to post a new picture every day now. And take advantage of our FREE courses, that led me to how I'm living now as His bride. Read more about Him in the Praise Reports because most of the praise is all about Him!!
Do you have a testimony of His love and power in your life, or just to thank Him? Then please send us your Praise Report, I know that He will use it to encourage many women\o/
See you, Brides!!!
