I was SCARED!

 Not so good morning,


  I can use your prayers today.  I was attacked by the enemy in the night!!  I've had a cold for about a week but yesterday it was almost gone.  Then during the night I suddenly couldn't stop coughing and I mean coughing.  There was fear too--fear that I couldn't get another breath.  Fear comes from the enemy.  2 Timonty 1:7  "For God has not given me the spirit of fear but of power and of love and of a sound mind!"

  During the attack last night, though, I went into panic mode and guzzled lemon juice with vital reds.  That's how I recovered from swine flu about 5 years ago.  Still I couldn't stop coughing.  I kept crying out to the Lord and He reminded me how I used reflexology when I couldn't stop coughing this last time I had Covid.  The throat reflexes are at the base of the thumbs so I pressed there and worked out the painful spots.

  Finally I fell asleep somewhere around 3:00.  I woke up about 9:00 this morning without a cough--NO COUGH.  My throat is sore from last night but I don't even feel sick--just tired.  That's what makes me think the enemy of my soul attacked me during the night.  The fear that was present also has me convinced that they were trying to take me out--again.

  I do realize that I sound paranoid!  However, when I ponder how my Christian energy work is destroying the lies those creeps so carefully get people to believe about themselves, of course they want me dead.  I guess the Lord still wants me here so I'm here.  I really need your prayers today though!!

  In my last post I shared how THE PASSION TRANSLATION is encouraging me in ways I never have been before.  Recently I found their daily email which is full of love for God.  The passion that God has for you and me is real.  We just have to tune into it.  It's like the old radios that were scratchy, then fuzzy, then clear as you searched for the station.  

  Here's today's devotional.  Feel free to sign up for them yourselves here: 

The Passion Translation 

  Once again, please keep me in your prayers today.  Also, as the Holy Spirit leads you, please keep my work here at "Links to Healing" in your prayers.  I sense there is a pretty important session I am to give someone today.  Why else would the dark side fight so hard to take me out last night?  I NEED your prayers to continue!  May God bless you for each one!!!

Encounter God in Prayer…

Holy Devotion

Lord, unite my will to yours. Spirit, soul, and body—I consecrate myself to you and depend upon your grace. Let me be so fully devoted to you that nothing will ever turn my heart away. Remove the barriers I have unknowingly created. Burn away everything that is contrary to your Holy Spirit. I want every moment of my life to revolve around loving you. Whether in worship or in my daily tasks, guide me into a lifestyle of adoration. I want to be continually aware of you—the beginning and end of all I think and do. No matter what is happening around me, may I be eternally drawn to your presence.

 

In you I lack nothing. Your very name is power and majesty. Your presence is peace, joy, and full provision for every situation. I want to experience the fullness of your love. To worship you in spirit and truth—with unrelenting, unyielding devotion. May everything I do flow from a heart of pure and holy devotion. I give you the pleasing offering of my life.

Psalm 54:6

The Passion Translation

 

Lord, I will offer myself freely, and everything I am I give to you. I will worship and praise your name, O Lord, for it is precious to me.
