Hear my cry, O God; attend unto my prayer. From the end of the earth will I cry unto
thee, when my heart is overwhelmed: lead me to the rock that is higher than I.
Psalm 61:1-2
I was up early this morning pouring my heart out to my beautiful Lord…
thee, when my heart is overwhelmed: lead me to the rock that is higher than I.
Psalm 61:1-2
I was up early this morning pouring my heart out to my beautiful Lord…
“His face is lovely. His words are warmth and encouragement to a weary soul.”
In the night hours, the Holy Spirit comforts me and speaks to my heart. And today I had a unique sense of the preciousness of the Lord. Truly He's so wonderful! For I have been in great inner pain all this week. My spirit has been utterly crushed. It's more spiritual warfare. Many trials have been coming my way.
In one instance, someone in the media has come forth to launch an attack against my testimony. This person wrote to me exactly on my birthday (June 1), and she cloaked herself in a spirit of meanness and spitefulness. So yesterday evening, in great distress, I took this person's letter to the chapel with me. I tucked it into my Bible, and during our time of corporate prayer, about two dozen Christians prayed over the situation. We prayed for this hardhearted journalist, too.
I asked that all of Satan's works against me be canceled. I also prayed for God to bless this person, and to even remove the scales from her eyes, the way He removed the scales from the eyes of saint-hating “Saul of Tarsus” Nevertheless, these attacks from the evil one (Satan) are par for the Christian's walk. That people come against me is an evident token of God's hands upon my life. And I do forgive all who hate me.
