I was in school earlier today and i had written on my notebook "Jesus loves you" as a reminder, and this girl read it out loud while we were in P.E. and she went around to another girl and said, "hey, jesus loves you" and looked at me and laughed. the other girl laughed too.

I feel kind of lame writing this because i know that it happens to everyone... but i just need a little encouragement. thanks

Hi Silverdawn,

Well, when you walk around the world, remember that you are in the enemy's territory. You experienced the mocking demon in that girl. When you come near this girl again, and as you approach her, you say, I bind all mocking, and interfering spirits to silence in Jesus' Name.

Now speak those words in authority and in faith. And don't think anymore about, because if you do, then Satan will come along and make you feel weak.

Remember, when we submit to our Lord, the enemy will flee.

Remember, that we are a servant of God, our Lord Jesus Christ.

And remember most of all that you never wave a RED FLAG at a bull when you are in his paddock.

Take care
Love in Christ

Dear Silverdawn

Don't feel lame, feel glad. For it was noticed and responded to. We are called to witness and you did it in writing!!!


Don't live on others reaction. It is JUST vanity. She will have a chance to think about this as time passes. TODAY you planted a seed. It will now depend on what type of ground it falls on as to how it will grow.


If you don't get that type reception from some folks then your not doing what JESUS instructed us to do.



Do you remember how JESUS told them to shake the dust off their feet if their were not accepted???
Well the same goes for you!!!


DO NOT REBUKE THAT GIRL!!! AS THEN YOU WILL GIVE HER GOOD REASON FOR HER ACTIONS!!! ( at least in her mind )


Next time you see her smile and tell her:

" JESUS LOVES YOU!!! "


For the LORD said:

" IF YOU ARE ASHAMED OF ME IN THIS WORLD I WILL BE ASHAMED OF YOU IN THE KINGDOM "


I HOPE WE GET A LOT MORE FOLKS JUST LIKE YOU DOING THE SAME THING, SO REMEMBER:





X Even though you can't see him, GOD is there!!! O
( click on the x and drag to the O ) ( then see who is with you ) steven

Don't be ashamed. This is nothing to be ashamed of at all. By writing this you let people know who you stand for. God has given us armor to wear. Today you took a shot to your armor. Sure it hurts but it didn't kill your faith. People get hurt in battles. Now you have to get back up and keep on fighting. Pray that God would work in her. Be a blessing to her. Be bold for Jesus.

Well you wrote the truth on your notebook. People may laugh at it till the day they really need it, then God reminds them about the words you wrote. It can even get to the point that you may have saved someone's life. People can't hide from God's love; it seeks them out.

Billy Graham always says to people "God loves you and so do I." After awhile people stopped laughing, because the Holy Spirit used those words to touch their hearts.

So .. keep that on your notebook. If they laugh, they laugh.

Yes, silver.......this world is the enemies territory - they don't know God and so make fun of things that are of God. I would ignore their mocking and just be christ like towards them

:hug: Pray for the girls who laughed at you. They may become Christians one day too. I was Jewish all my life and while I would not have laughed at your notebook, I would have probably thought it was silly when I was in high school. But, I remember some of my classmates in highschool who tried to share the Lord with me. I know now that they prayed for me and now I appreciate that. I still remember some of them and I am so glad that they prayed for me.
So, I encourage you to continue loving the Lord and when you face discouragement, to pray for those who persecute you. :prayer:

My boyfriend knew someone in High School who mocked him and called him lame for being Christian. Today, she is a Christian herself.

Just realize that this person does not know God and is mocking because they do not understand... don't take it personally, don't feel silly! You are being true to yourself and God.
