Day 56 18 July 2011

Sex, masturbation and oral sex

What is your opinion? Is sex okay before marriage? Is it ok to just “pet or petting”- (masturbation and oral sex transformed on each other) after all we are not having sex we are just enjoying each other....Where do we draw the line? What does the bible say, what are we allowed to do and what not? Are you depended on a sexual relationship to feel loved?

I have read allot of books about staying pure and keeping yourself for your husband. It was amazing and I got allot out of it but I am a divorced, single mom that has been there, no secret there, my son is seven. I have tasted the life of sexual intimacy and stepping back into purity is a cliché to most of the books I have read, so I decided to investigate myself and ask the Lord to guide me and explain to me how far is too far.

Well we all know that we cannot have sex before marriage. Do we practice these principles today or have we been sucked into the worldly system that says it is okay. I have heard people say that I have been married before and I am not making the same mistakes so I will test drive before I buy. Some ask how you would know you are sexually compatible if you do not try it out. I have had boyfriends that said we need to enjoy each other some way or the other so petting is fine...Then the best is “we are going to get married anyway” If I had to believe that from every guy I have dated I would have slept with so many thinking that they will marry me...no girls please do not fall for that one.

Sex has become an industry. Everywhere we see the image of men and women being used to sell products or to simply stir the passions. It is not sacred, holy and pure anymore. The marriage bed is defiled and we are confused about the love that lies within “making love” So I had a look at Corinthians. According to history the ladies of Corinth was very promiscuous and Paul said “do not be sexual immoral” which meant no adultery, no sex with animals, no sex whilst a woman menstruates and no sexual idolatry.

Idolatry is the use of an object to obtain that which only God can provide. Makes you think about how pornography has been portrayed and how you see and understand sex today. I want more "X" in my life. I will use this object to obtain more of "X". “X” can be any emotional state for example peace, security, a heightened sense of well-being, promise of a better future, a rejuvenated sense of meaning and purpose, place or power, I desire, I want, I have. Sexual immorality finds its grounding in the "objectification" of other people. Think about the term "sex object." Think of the use of images, the manipulation of surfaces, the airbrushed ephemera, and the pixilated ghost on a screen. We make others into objects to obtain that which only God can provide. We love objects and use people. We use people as objects. And what is it we hope to gain, perhaps the restoration of certain emotional ends such as a renewed sense of security or peace or power or place or assurance?

God created sex as a physical, emotional and spiritual experience, and petting, porn and sexual relationships before marriage is a partial representation of it. It is clearly just a substitute for the real thing. So the question is not what am I allowed to do but does it divert my devotion away from God, does is cause spiritual confusion and damages our discernment of right and wrong. Does it give you a “deluded heart” which misleads you? Sexual immorality grieves the Holy Spirit within us and then we feel sick mentally, emotional and physically afterwards. A sexual addiction is connected to your thoughts, have you build an altar for sex thoughts in your mind, where sexual thoughts seem to rise above everything else. This thought process will mean going through life loving things and using people rather than using things and loving people.

If you want to let go of this and you want to love people rather than things you can pray this prayer:

"Father God, I confess that I have sinned through idolatry in these specific ways: ……(name them all). I see these activities and attitudes as sin and I ask Your forgiveness through the blood of Jesus Christ. Lord I ask that you will help me destroy any high places I have made in my mind for sin. Thank you, Lord, for this forgiveness I have in Jesus. Father God, I turn from my sinful ways now, and I surrender every area of my life that has been a source of idol worship: ....(name them all). I cast my idols behind me and close the door to them once and for all. I break the altars of sin I have made in my mind and wash them away with the blood of Jesus Christ. I commit myself to serving and worshipping God. In the name of Jesus I pray, Amen. I renounce my sin of idolatry and any evil spirits associated with it. I command you in the name of Jesus Christ to depart from me and trouble me no more. I close the door to these idols, bar it with the cross of Christ and seal it with the blood of Christ. In the name of Jesus Christ I pray, Amen."

My Dearest Child,

The words you speak are not your own. My Spirit is within you and you will know when to speak and when to refrain from speaking. The work you are doing is not your work, it is Mine. Your work is not your own doing in your own strength and might; it is done in My strength and might. I am a God of judgement and a God of war as well as a God of Love. You must continue to gather My children together. You must proclaim My Word and tell my people to continue to take back what the enemy has stolen from them. I will use you to rebuke those who rise against Me, saith the Lord. Call on My strength. When you encounter evil forces go forth in boldness. Use the power of My Name, My Word and My Blood. Rebuke every enemy in My Name. Do not ignore the world the flesh and the devil. Overcome them by the word of your testimony and the power of My Blood that was shed for you. You must continue to give this message to My people.

With Love your Father

Day 54 14 July 2011

There are Biblical meanings for symbolic methods we as Christians use:

So what does all this mean and why can we use things in the physical to symbolise our beliefs and what difference will it make?

1 Cor 15:46 “But it is not the spiritual that is first but the natural, and then the spiritual”

God’s principle namely that we need to give expression to the domain in the physical first, before its spiritual equivalent will materialize in the spiritual realm

A prayer shawl or Tallit:

ü The prayer shawl or tallit in Hebrew is a sign of God’s covering and authority

ü To humble ourselves under that authority is to wear the prayer shawl whilst praying

ü It also represents the covering of the Holy Spirit

Anointing oil:

Exodus 30:23-29 “Take the finest spices: of liquid myrrh 500 shekels, and of sweet-smelling cinnamon half as much, that is, 250, and 250 of aromatic cane, and 500 of cassia, according to the shekel of the sanctuary, and a hin of olive oil. And you shall make of these sacred anointing oil blended as by the perfumer; it shall be a holy anointing oil. With it you shall anoint the tent of meeting and the ark of the testimony, and the table and all its utensils, and the lamp stand and its utensils, and the altar of incense, and the altar of burnt offering with all its utensils and the basin and its stand. You shall consecrate them, that they may be most holy. Whatever touches them will become holy. You shall anoint Aaron and his sons, and consecrate them, that they may serve me as priests.”

ü Myrrh To be a true disciple to God, can be bitter but gives of a lovely aroma

ü Cinnamon A life of passion and integrity towards God

ü Fragrant Cane A powerful relationship with God and seek righteousness and truth.

ü Cassia A life of worship, bowing down before God

ü Olive oil Binds all the spices together to form unity

Shofar

The horn of a wild goat is the shofar of the Bible, the horn sounded in the seventh month at Yom Teruah [Feast of Trumpets] and at the close of Yom Kippur [Day of Atonement]. It is reminiscent of the ram caught in the thicket, tangled in the bush by its horns during the binding of Isaac. It is the sound of God’s provision of perfect Atonement.

Leviticus 25:9-10 “9 Then you shall sound abroad the loud trumpet on the

tenth day of the seventh month [almost October]; on the Day of Atonement

blow the trumpet in all your land. And you shall hallow the fiftieth year and

proclaim liberty throughout all the land to all its inhabitants. It shall be a jubilee

for you; and each of you shall return to his ancestral possession [which

through poverty he was compelled to sell], and each of you shall return to his

family [from whom he was separated in bond service].”

A shofar was blown to announce an important event such as the alarm of war or the coming of peace. It is the sound of victory, as with Joshua and the city of Jericho. The shofar was sounded during the greatest event in all Israel’s history… the LORD’s marriage proposal to His People and the giving of the Ten Commandments at Mount Sinai [Shavuot]. The blowing of the shofar is the only specific commandment for Yom Teruah the “Day of the shofar blast”. Just as the trumpeters used to announce the presence of mortal kings, the shofar is used by Israel to proclaim the Coronation of the King of Kings, Yahweh the Messiah, GOD THE KING.

“Wake from your [moral] sleep! You are asleep! Get up from

your slumber. You are in deep sleep. Search for your behavior.

Become the best person that you can. Remember God, the

One who created you!”

Sound the trumpet! Anoint your heads, humble yourselves and pray to our Father

Fill the air with proclamations of the King!

Walk for life

By Silma van Deventer

Looking back at your life do you wish you never made that choice or took that turn, maybe you at a place where you regret a decision you have made bringing you at a place of regret, shame, stagnation and depression. The past cannot be changed that we know neither can you take back what you have said. Every day of our lives we make mistakes, nobody is perfect. Changing your attitude and adapting to your incident you might just learn something rather than being a baby. Nobody said it was going to be easy, but you do have the ability to walk down

Experience Lane

and become skilled at life rather then carrying a stone of regret with you. It is never too late to change circumstances no matter how bad it seems and if you do not have control over it let it be, time will heal that wound and remorse will knock at you door. It is your choice to open and walk through it.

When you where a baby lying in your cradle, fragile, dependant and content, you did not need much other than be fed and changed, totally dependant. Then you got a bit older and it was your first day at school. Wearing your uniform, carrying a oversized, box suitcase instead of dragging your security blanket behind you, you where ready to face the world, still innocent and no wisdom you took on the challenges of life because you where convinced that you are all grownup now. Saying your goodbyes to your trusted friend the dummy, it was no longer applicable to hold on to certain securities, still being dependant but starting to grow as a person and developing your personality. A personality has to grow and develop as you go along so that you can be strong enough to face life’s blows, experience is what molds you, but let’s argues the fact, “my dummy worked for me then why not now?” It would be a valid argument from a hypothetical perspective, but when you put it to practice it would be furthest thing from the truth.

Assume for an instant you are fresh out of varsity, you have been working for a year or two, you starting to grow in confidence of who you are and what you are capable of however this is still in a framework of reference that you have adopted and made your own in the past by your parents example or friends. You have now in truth started you’re journey in the real world with your nappy still securely tied around your waist.

It is times like these that you need to stop and re-evaluate your life, where you at, how you got there, and what you need to change within yourself to adapt to your changed environment. Put the same amount of energy into your life that you would in a business or a project, you owe it to yourself. Not all changes are as evident as cradle to school but if you do not change you would die inside. The world changes, friends change, circumstance changes even your day’s change, constant change that you need to deal with and adapt to. Apply your experiences to your life and make it better, try harder ad never give up.

Look at last year where you where at, compared to this year maybe single and now leaving your mere self-absorbed existence in the past and moving into the compromising fifty percent of your life stage. Maybe you where married and this year you are facing a, coming out of nowhere, divorce. What ever changes you are facing you need to move on; you cannot reach new shores if you are anchored in the harbor. You need to let go of the past and move forward. Stop drifting in the waters of shame and regret. Sure there is a period of mourning to express the pain you are feeling but you will have to make the break at some point so that the healing process can begin. Pursue you must and pursue you shall. Be bold, vigorous, focused, alert and passionate.

Complications you will endure, what exactly no one can tell, but if you made the choice to move on roll up the anchor and set to sea. It does not take a genius to know that the sea is unpredictable so their will inevitably be many things to deal with along the way. Destinations, especially when it involves other people, never come with a list of “how to do or what to do”. You may get a few hits or storms along the way but looking back at the end of a voyage it served a purpose.

Inside you will always stay the same person, you are not lesser a YOU, because of your circumstances, but we need to adjust to our environment and not by one set of rules because every situation is different in life. When life changes around you so should you, it does not make you a weaker or more feeble person than the other it just makes you adaptable, compatible, faithful and dependable. It is not your behavior that defines you, it is what you believe in, who you are inside and what you dream of. It is the same as believing that your character changed every time you changed according to your circumstance. You need to adjust your behavior without compromising your character.

Do not leave your circumstances in state of infancy. Grow up and learn, make it your own. Your walk in life depends only on you; nobody can make the decision for you. People can only encourage you and support you. Nothing happens without a reason, you are placed in that situation to learn from it and pass on the knowledge or benefit from it yourself, and if you make the same mistake again see it as an opportunity to be better this time. Regret should not be part of your vocabulary, you cannot change the past, learn to forgive yourself and stop looking back you may just turn into a pillar of salt.

Day 52 12 July 2011

There is so many books out there for young girls that has not been married before, but what about the advice we need when we are divorced and getting back into the dating scene, maybe you just a little bit older than the newly graduate (being gentle on some of our ages) and you need to know. There are his kids, your kids, our kids to consider. There is definitely an x-wife in the picture and two homes, so how should we handle our relationships responsible?

Make God centre and Head of your relationship
Do you have similar vision and desires
Are you equally yoked in all areas
Are you best friend
Can you pray together
Do you bring out the best in each other
Do you miss each other when you not together
Do you communicate
Is he/she well respected within their local church, by family, friends, colleagues and the community at large
Can you visualise him being priest in the home
Are you honest with each other with the highest integrity, sincerity and trust
Are you both faithful, loyal and steadfast
Can you both say "sorry" and admit fault if/when necessary
Is there romance, affection in the relationship
Have you both completely dealt with the past (including past relationships) or are you carrying baggage
Does forgiveness come easy in the relationship and leave what lies behind and press on towards the goal set before us in Christ Jesus
Have you met his/her family
Is he/she in a good relationship with your children and is good with and/to your children
Have you got peace
What is your spirit saying to you
Fear and being nervous are two separate things. Fear is not from God and should be dealt with.
Are you HAPPY
Can you cry and laugh together
Financially are you both financially sound and not deep rooted in debt
Are you sensible with finances
Responsible - in terms of holding down a job
When your relationship is established you need to go to the same church. Being in two different churches invariably means two different visions/pathways.
“Attraction” do not get so caught up in how sexy/gorgeous that you over look the spiritual side of things which is more important.
Loving someone is a choice.
a) Spirit b) attraction c) heart d) maturity ect.
Making love is for marriage and it demonstrates a culmination of love shared/expressed between you. It is an integral part of marriage and not just based on "needs". Try to keep your physical relationship for marriage. There are many ways to express love to each other in the meantime

Fruits of the flesh

….you just met him. The ‘him’ you’ve been waiting for your whole life. Gorgeous perfection, delicious…..his body a mountainous landscape you’re dieing to explore. Sculptured by the Master, masculine magnificence defines him as feast for the eyes. His mere presence is an invitation for hours and hours of ‘happily ever after dreams’ and then….Warning signals flash in red. Alarm sounds. Be alert, be alert. A heavenly defense team is deployed to assist you in your moment of love struck moral combat.

The urge to undress seductively is strong….Slowly you take of your service sandals. The sandals you received for serving God in all walks of life. You forgot the Diesel sneakers of discipleship you prayed for to finish the race with…..This is not the time nor is the place to talk the walk you chose…this now you….and him. As you struggle ahead barefoot the angelic team run ahead to remove the rocks and stones in your way as devilish thorns are waiting, ready to devour the fresh flesh of un-scorned toes. The Holy Spirit releases his top marketing executives to show you’re the new catalogue of shoes……. But the him…the one’s whose footsteps you are blindly following….

All reasoning is beyond you….it is you and him, alive and breathing. Every second is an invitation and then…..you accept. The thunderous overwhelming pleasures of pain and fantasy, reality and dream that throw you into a spiral and within the haze of a whirlwind you are facing the hypnotic eyes of The Snake. A drop of juice dribble down on your chin as your teeth dive into the fresh flesh of the forbidden fruit and you know the time is here to face THE NAKED TRUTH

Day 48 8 July 2011

For you to print and keep and remind yourself daily

HE IS FOR ME
Time is not the enemy; things can change in a day
Don’t judge yourself, bad will automatically burn-off
Stop trying so hard
Focus on WHO not DO
No competition or comparing, just a race to run your own course
Be-ing NOT Do-ing
It is not a bunch of rules, The Bible is A LOVE LETTER
Believe what HE says
Expectation is the womb of manifestation; ask for good to come your way
Doves eyes, they have single vision, only on JESUS
Think Victor NOT Victim
I have the right to divine protection
I am destined for a great plan
I have the power to STOP things through prayer my choices and my words
FAITH not FEAR
Focus on the positive
Stop thinking B.C.
Remember what you have and not what you have not
Harvest always comes
GIVE
I want more to give more
Yahweh solves poverty
God humbles me by blessing me when I do not deserve it
Poor in Spirit is dependency on God
I have favour
Thanks giving, the highest form of faith
Opposition is producing invisible progress
Peace in the middle of the storm
Treat your tongue like a sword with scripture
Anxiety is a signal rather than a condition
Decide to be happy today
Certainty = joy
Only good not to harm
Do not settle for mediocrity, EXCEL
Do not blame others
Refuse to excuse lack of support
Faith finds a way
Put effort into finding a solution
Change focus to “who is for you”
Breakthrough the wall, because it’s the walls holding back abundance
Falling is not failing, I may fall 7 times but I get back up
Jesus is praying for me so I am victorious
Bad turns into good
What goes down must come up
I am “success”, it is not a thing
Decision is a doorway into reality
Keep on asking, seeking and knocking and doors will open
Think BIGGER
Seed meets need – seeds determine harvest
What is stolen will be restored 7 times
Moving into Gods will expect the blessing
Miracle turn around Esther
God increases money, love and time
Expect the suddenly from God
Perfect love cast out fear
Realize your value
You do not have to change in order to be loved
I am NOW in God’s presence
Live by what God says not by what you feel
Tithe
Take action
God can open a door that no man can close
Expectation produces manifestation
It’s not your length of prayer but strength of prayer
Try to listen more to Gods words than interrupting Him with prayer
It is God’s business whether it goes well with me or not
A double edge sword, God spoke a promise now I must speak and live it

Day 47 7 July 2011

Fear and forgetfulness

We forget what a life of slavery we had very quickly; sometimes we look back and wish we can have the “good-old-days” again. But you have forgotten what it was like...The oppression , slavery and pain you experienced with that guy when you where dating, but we do forget. Our memory has a way of deleting the bad and filing the good times in an easy access memory bank long after a breakup, but do not be fooled. Rather go to your dusty basement and retrieve those bad files and remember why before you make the same mistake again. Forgiveness does not mean forgetting. We are Christians not doormats do not let people use you too clean their feet.

The definition of insanity: Returning to the same situations over and over again expecting diffirent results

If you broke up with your boyfriend, there was a reason you did that, many a times we are faced with a “return” policy that makes us go back to the same vomit that caused us so much pain in the first place. We are creatures of habit and it is of course easier to go back to what you know. There are these memories that start flooding your mind, only remembering the good times or making excuses for him “well you know what, actually he was not that bad”, “at least I had someone to go to”, “he has enough money” or “did I make a mistake to break up with him? He is a Christian you know”, “we knew each other so well” Whatever doubt your mind is preoccupied with I can promise you that going back would be like the Israelites believing that the oppression in Egypt was better for them than their freedom in the dessert.

Fear makes us turn back, scared to go into the unknown, fear is not from God, the opposite of fear is love so walking in God’s love would erase the fear that we have of the future. Sometimes I wish we can just erase the past as if it never existed because allot of our fears are fruit of the hurt in the past. It is the unknown that we are afraid of,”what if’s” that creates doubt and makes us go back to our vomit. “What if I end up alone?” “What if this was it and I just blew it?” “What if I...................”

The boyfriend that hurt me the most was the one that I broke up with 4 times and went back into the relationship with new hope and closed eyes time and time again. Every time we broke up it broke me even more and caused my self confidence to become trampled into nothing. My self-worth was non-existent and tarnished by the abusive words that got worse and worse with ever breakup. Our last breakup was initiated by him and he made sure to tell everyone what a terrible person I am and how awful his time was with me. That I was too overweight for his taste and that I was unbearable to be with. Looking back today none of it was worth it, the emotional abuse as well as the self-destruction I have caused myself. It is 3 years later and I do not miss any of it, I had the privileged to see him again at a recent wedding and noticed what a messy eater he is, there was food on the table cloth all around his plate and I mean really scattered, he got totally wasted and slurred the words “so Silma how are you these days” he has picked up weight and seems old and tired. Why did I not see that before, but I can say with a very thankful heart, closure!!!!!

Day 46 July 5

Getting your Joy back....

Joy is more than earthly pleasure and more than what we call happiness. Joy is the enjoyment of God and the good things that come from him. Happiness is circumstantial, Joy is continues. If the bible provides us the wonderful words of life, Joy supplies the music. If the way to heaven is an arduous climb, Joy sets up the chair lift. Joy is the fuel God intends us to run on called strength

“May the God of hope fill you with all Joy…” (Romans 15:13).

Ever notice how some people go through incredible difficulties yet still have Joy, while others who don’t go through half as much struggle to keep their heads above water? What’s the difference? These people have a well within that they draw from daily; a well that can’t be drained by what’s going on around them. Nehemiah said

“…the Joy of the Lord (the joy that comes from knowing that He’s Lord of every situation) is your strength” (Nehemiah 8:10).

What’s blocking you from experiencing God’s Joy? Choose to move into Joy, It is a choice only you can make today!

Try these simple steps to help you get your Joy back:

DAY1:

Spend some time thanking God for the Joy that can only come from him. Ask God to fill you with his Joy today.

DAY 2:

What do you think about God being Lord of every situation? Do you really believe that He is? What situations are you facing that you haven’t recognised God is Lord of?

DAY 3:

What situations do you need God to fill you with his Joy so that you have the strength to see it through?

DAY 4:

Do you find it easy to ask God for Joy? Or do you struggle because it seems greedy? Ask God to help you ask him for more and more!

DAY 5:

Who do you know that seems far from being Joyful? Spend some time praying for them and their situation. Pray that whether they know God or not, that their day will be full of Joy.

Day 45 July 4

Life and testimony

Baptism of suffering

Mark 10:38 Jesus said to them, "You don't know what you are asking for. Can you drink the cup of suffering that I must drink? Can you be baptized in the way I must be baptized?"

Rom 8:17 since we are his children, we will possess the blessings he keeps for his people, and we will also possess with Christ what God has kept for him; for if we share Christ's suffering, we will also share his glory.

We have heard of fire baptism and water baptism but did you know about the baptism of suffering?

You have chosen to walk the walk with Jesus, and satan will not leave you alone he will try and win you back anyway he could. He has a limited time left here on earth to get as many as he can for his kingdom do you think he is going to give up the fight before the fat lady sings. He will probably still be trying while she is busy singing because he is so rude and abrupt. So why so downcast if you know that it takes a certain amount of suffering to walk the walk and talk the talk?

Do not fret but focus on Joy because Joy is what gives you strength. I always tell my son, when his sitting with a big fat lip and arms crossed with a winner frown on his forehead. You have the choice to change your attitude. You have the choice to become joyful in your circumstance because that is WHAT WILL GIVE YOU STRENGHT!!!!I do not know about you but when I get angry it takes so much energy that I am exhausted afterwards, it drains your strength.

So make suffering light by changing your attitude

Day 42 July 1

One Sunday morning in January 2010

Sitting in church watching every one taking their places and greeting familiar faces, I got lost in my own thoughts; it is just you and me Lord. I am comfortable where I am and who I am, but yet have no idea who I am suppose to be, yeah maybe I am just still fast asleep, Tian and I did jump out of bed very quickly, maybe I am just comfortable being here with You or am I wishing I had someone, a partner, someone to share my life with. My thoughts get interrupted by the worship team that starts up in front and everybody takes there places as if rehearsed…. And then in a moment I remembered….I had a dream last night about friends in my past and God turned to me and said: “When are you writing your book”

I am writing this blog for you Lord.

Day 41 June 30

Woman is the beauty of creation

Ever wondered why satan likes to attack woman? The first woman he attacked was Eve and he came to her as sly as he is and convinced her to eat. From then on he made it his priority to breakdown the beauty, innocence and being a “good servant” Abuse started even in the Biblical times, woman were chopped up into pieces and send to the far corners of the land to make a statement, woman were abused and used and raped even then. We were slaves and did not have a voice, not allowed to get educated or taken seriously. Many years ago in a town called Sodom and Gomorra; men wanted to see Lot at his house because they wanted to have sex with the visitors. (The angels of the Lord) and Lot started negotiating with them to give his daughters instead. Now you would think that it is the most terrible thing that any dad could do but yet in those days woman was worth much less than the men visiting his home....satan hates beauty.

Woman gets spread on sports cars with only strings to cover themselves. Do me a favour when you watch a music video again please switch of the sound and look at the woman on that music video, her legs are open, she is exposed and made cheap in front of millions of men. How many of us have been so indoctrinated that we do not even see anything wrong with it anymore or maybe you wish that you could be that sexy and have the guts to parade on a music video? The more perverse satan can make us look, the more satisfied he is. He was after all the most beautiful angel in heaven, jealousy is what he operates on and he will destroy any beauty that he sees because if he cannot have it he will destroy every little bit of beauty out there.

The Bride of Christ is how God sees His church, comparing it to the female. Why female? It is beauty; it is purity in the highest form. I asked the Lord once why did you appear to Mary Magdelene first after the third day and not to his mom or a disciple? Jesus said: “Because she is the type and shadow of the Bride of Christ that waited faithfully until the end, prayed and stayed at My grave until I rose on the third day, she is like the Bride of Christ waiting for my return on judgement day so stay faithful and pure just like Mary because I will return for you, my beautiful and pure Bride”

Every little girl has dreams of being swept up into a great adventure, waiting for her prince on a white horse and being the beautiful princess. Sadly, while we grow up the dreams of being this princess shatters into millions of pieces and effect our future decisions forever. The design for woman was of unbelievable beauty, to be romanced and to play an irreplaceable role in an amazing adventure with a wonderful family of her own. Jesus came to recover our hearts, to set us free to be that princess. You are created in the image of God; your beauty is why you were made, so that it can be revealed again with freedom and the vision of all you want to be. You have the strength and the beauty to offer, that is what YOU are created for. God has been wooing you since forever. Do not make your beauty cheap or give up your purity and beauty for anything other than your husband that God has for you. Pray and ask the Lord to help you and protect you from the enemies’ attacks. You have the power to stand up and make a difference; we have been oppressed for generations and generations. It is time to stand up and be BEAUTIFUL again!!!!!!!

Woman is the beauty of creation
