♕ Today's Promise: "But they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb and by the word of their testimony." Revelation 12:11
~ Anissa in Slovakia
Dear brides,
I've been going through a crisis this week. The attacks from my EH (earthly husband) do not subside and I still feel great pain as I try not to defend, not to attack back, but to be quiet. The enemy almost convinced me that it would be permanent, that destroyed me.
I confessed to my HH (Heavenly Husband) that I don't rule, the pain exhausts me and I don't want it anymore and that I give up being quiet because it hurts all the time. I told Him that when I was defending myself in the body, although it didn't solve the problem, but at least I didn't feel the pain and that I was giving up and that I would probably at least return to that defense.
I begged Him, if I had to persevere, to give me some sign that it made sense, because I really didn't rule anymore. I further begged Him to help me get rid of the pain.
Girls, the Lord did not wait and act. The next morning, I received a message from the bride Bernie that she was thinking of me and sent me praise from the bride Annabella, who also tells how difficult it is for her, to recover with a EH who still does not know the Lord. Did I need more signs? No, I thanked the Lord and asked Him to help me get rid of that pain. To give me some word that will be like a quick pain pill for me. And the Lord led me to two.
The first verse I say to myself when I feel pain, anger or any other negative emotions. It was again in praise from Ruby, who also learned it quickly: “Whoever is in Christ is therefore a new creation. The old has passed away, and the new has come.” 2 Corinthians 5:17 and the second, which I read often, was, "And the God of all grace, who has called you to his eternal glory in Christ Jesus, he will perfect and strengthen you, strengthen you, and establish you." 1 Peter 5:10
In a few days, the Lord led me to read all the praises of the bride Annabella (by clicking on her tag), who seems to be struggling with things like me. I gained incredible hope and strength. Many of her testimonies touched me with many of the thoughts she had noted, whether from RMI (Restore Ministries International) books, what the Lord had taught her or told her.
Did you notice anything important? At this stage of my journey, the Lord led me again to the testimonies of our brides. I confess that I stopped reading them, thus losing my big weapon. Because, "But they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb and by the word of their testimony." Revelation 12:11
Dear brides, I want to encourage you, do not stop reading testimonies, even if you are already restored, and especially if your EH (earthly husband) does not yet know the Lord, the enemy will try to take advantage of it. The Lord has given us a great weapon, so let's use it and strengthen our faith, because it will weaken and weaken over time. Next time, I'll tell you more about how the Lord is helping me get rid of my pain. Be Encouraged! 🙂
