Need Encouragement?

New to DAB and in need of some serious prayer and encourgement....
Hello to you all out there and may you all be blessed with Gods grace. I am truly blessed to have found a way to get closer to God by lisenting to his word. This has come to me at a very crucial time in my life.

I became saved at the age of 7, and everyone else in my famliy was catholic. I remember getting in trouble for making such a choice. As the years went by one by one my immidate famly was also saved(my mother then my step-father). I always knew i was special but didn't know why I went through the things that I did (sexually abused at 4) and my dad left us when I was 5. Throughout my entire life I grew up with anger and rage. The men in my life were always not the best choices.

Today I have a 14yr old son and am a single parent. This year has been a very wierd. I have been expierenceing getting up at 3 am without wanting to. I pray at that time and ask God to guide me through his word. Everytime I tell people and ask what this means, no one seems to know.I have always been very spitritual ever since I was a child.

Lately, I feel the enemy is attacking me with all this might. I have been praying to go back to school and God has opened my doors. Now I am having a huge issue with changing my schedule at work in order for me to attend school. My boss is making it impossible for me to change. I feel and know that the devil is trying to intercide with my blessing. I am asking for some prayer warriors to assit me in defeating this. I am asking for prayer. I refuse to be defeated and know that with faith and prayer everything is possible. I am also asking that you all pray for me to get closer to God and achieve my calling. I know that once I get to the place our Lord wants me I will be moving and changing peoples lives. I want to be able to make a difference in peoples lives and show them that God is alive and real.

May God bless you all and please pray for me as I go throught this fight. I refuse to be defeated.

Sueann,

That's a great post from you. I'll join you in prayer. God will use you, because of your available heart. Don't assume to know how He will accomplish these things. Walk daily and keep asking. We don't always get to see the fruit. If we did, we would call it ours and the Lord knows that. He is so kind.

Love you,
Ray

Sueann,

Thanks so much for sharing on here. We are all victims of evil and sin, unfortunately. But, I do believe that God can work all things for the good in your life and especially in your eternal after life with him in Heaven! He will bless you beyond anything you could ever even imagine for all eternity for the heavy things you have suffered! Trust me, it's coming for you in Heaven if no place else!

Also, I wanted to comment about you waking up at 3am. I am no Bible expert - and that's for sure. And please don't be afraid when you read the following. I will explain what I say and what I see. I believe that 3am is considered the "witching hour". (A significant time for those who are Satanists - basically). And that is because it is the opposite time of which Jesus died on the cross - around 3pm in the afternoon. And from the other comments you made, it just sounds like the enemy is attempting to attack you. That 3am waking time almost sounds like a message and confirmation that you are somebody extremely important in completing the work of God and the enemy is SHAKING in his boots, basically. But please realize, that the enemy is after you intently because he's aware of the plans you have and how intense your work will be on getting others Saved and or drawing them closer to God. (Doing HUGE work for the Kingdom of Heaven, baby). This is not something the enemy can stop, so he will do everything he (thinks) he can to discourage you, set you off track etc. Don't let him! Use your awareness of his attacks to realize how awesome your strength and Godly influence is on the world around you. The Lord has HUGE plans for you! The brighter you are to God, the more of a target you are for the enemy. Take that as a HUGE compliment! I'd say, take it one day at a time and EVERYTIME you wake up like that, or you feel attacked, stop and get deep in prayer in the moment, if you can. The LORD is right there!! Email me if you want to talk. And I'll be praying for you!
