  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

Being still and waiting on God is awesome, ya' just can't beat that! :thumbsup:

I don't really know if this is His wisdom, but praying so....The tempter that is in your path and is someone close...is ususally...like Job...how God gets our attention that someone we love may not committed to Him. Now with that said...most people in my life, including a jewish family tempt me daily in some way shape or form "to give up my faith in Christ".

I always look at all this like...Well, if I wasn't close to our Lord...satan would have "no" reason to look at me or care what I was doing! I would already be his. So the refining fires or threshing floor sometimes feels like God isn't close. But, it all is just a test of faith...will you give in to this person? Or will you stand in Him? This imho...is why I believe we have ugly moments with those we love, and with the world in general...because HE is teaching us just like He did with His own apostles, so through trials... maybe like me you could just "hold HIM" and pray! Amen!

Sorry to have rambled on about this...but my life and my family "are" hard to deal with and there are ugly moments...but I "try" to chalk them up to learning something new, or look at it like...God loves me, satan knows and therefore is roaring about seeking to whom he may devour. Let it not be you, me or anyone else here! Amen!

JUST STAND FAST IN YOUR FAITH IN HIM AND ALL WITH BE WELL WITH YOUR SOUL, AMEN! :hug: the resident banana "hannah" :wave:

Thank you so much for the encouragement and the blessings that was very sweet.

I need a word, as I'm about to realize God has turned His back on me.

Don't give up - God would never turn his back on you.

I personally think you need to go back and re-read some of the posts here. If I am not mistaken someone gave you a word to go thru and make sure that you have nothing standing between you and God.......I also believe you indicated that you had and that there was nothing - however you also said something about reading certain books......are these books still in your possession? Just asking you to really search deep...........

Rose,
I am sorry you believe God has turned His back on you. He hasn't. There's a reason for all of this that you are going through.

As for a word, do you not realize that a "word" would come directly from God, and if you believe God has turned His back on you, why would He give someone else a word for you?

I'm not trying to be mean at all. :hug: I am just trying to speak some truth here in love.

Thank you for saying this. I believe God has spoken to Rose as well through many of the postings here the past few days.
I'm glad you brought the subject of the books up. That opens the door for me to say what I wanted to say the other day, and did not, but here goes. deep breath...
Rose, God would not have you to read those books. They are not from God. The time you have spent reading those books and searching for other answers, you could have spent reading His Word. Not once have I read that you have searched the scriptures for Him saying a word to you directly. There is always encouragement in the Word of God, and there is nothing, I repeat NOTHING like having God speak a Rhema word directly into your life.
In Philippians it reads that we must think upon thngs that are pure and holy, just, kind, winsome, gracious..Not other things. That would be like me picking up a spiritual warfare book and spending time reading on how to do battle with the devil, when I could pick up the Bible and read how much He cares, and reading about the battles the people of the OT did, and how Paul standing in dung clear up to his knees in the jail was singing praises to God in the midnight hour, and he did not give up. God sent an angel to bust Him out. But, Paul was immersed in the Word. He held it constantly before His face night and day.

I, too, am going through a particularly trying time, and I believe that God would have me to help you, encourage you, to remind me of His goodness and faithfulness to His children..
I am holding on to Him for all I have in me, but, I know He is holding even tighter to me.
I pray that you find Him, Rose. For He is right there.

Praise Him in anticipation that He will provide, praise Him for just who he is.

I will do this.
On the book, I returned it to the library. There are some books which carry bad things; i.e. astrology books, but I would not even glance upon that stuff.
There is nothing in my house (not much in it anyway!) that is unGodly.
I only own a bible.
There is nothing I have done. I pray all day and all night. I do read His word.

Rose,
There is only one thing left that can be gotten rid of....your mindset. You have so many prayer threads and you speak the word that God HAS abandoned you, God hates widows and orphans, God HAS turned His back on you. God cannot turn from man, only man turns from God. You have claimed it as a declaration. Please be careful! Words to the Father are powerful!
Even Job sitting in the street, covered in sores, rags, with nothing and no one never proclaimed that God had abandoned him.
I beg of you to stop proclaiming this as what is in God's mind.

Gal 6:7 - Do not be deceived: God cannot be mocked. A man reaps what he sows.
I will continue to pray for you and that you change your mind.

Rose,

Read Psalm 22....

You're experiencing emotions that our Lord Himself experienced.

Dear Father in Heaven, show this precious woman and mother that you have not abandoned her, but that you are actually using this difficulty to perform a work in her heart. In Jesus Name

Okay, Rose we hear you and we don't want to be Job's comforters in the midst of the storm but Jesus loves you and remember we are to praise Him in the midst of the storm.

WE break the generational curse of poverty in Rose's family in the name of Jesus, and we declare for Rose and for all of us, that our heritage is to be prospered by God for He will not harm us and anything else is from the pit of hell.

Matthew 6:19 Lay not up for yourselves treasures upon earth, where moth and rust doth corrupt, and where thieves break through and steal:

6:20 But lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth
nor rust doth corrupt, and where thieves do not break through nor
steal:

6:21 For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also.

6:22 The light of the body is the eye: if therefore thine eye be single, thy
whole body shall be full of light.

6:23 But if thine eye be evil, thy whole body shall be full of darkness. If
therefore the light that is in thee be darkness, how great is that
darkness!

6:24 No man can serve two masters: for either he will hate the one, and
love the other; or else he will hold to the one, and despise the other.
Ye cannot serve God and mammon.

6:25 Therefore I say unto you, Take no thought for your life, what ye
shall eat, or what ye shall drink; nor yet for your body, what ye
shall put on. Is not the life more than meat, and the body than
raiment?

6:26 Behold the fowls of the air: for they sow not, neither do they reap,
nor gather into barns; yet your heavenly Father feedeth them. Are
ye not much better than they?

6:27 Which of you by taking thought can add one cubit unto his stature?

6:28 And why take ye thought for raiment? Consider the lilies of the
field, how they grow; they toil not, neither do they spin:

6:29 And yet I say unto you, That even Solomon in all his glory was not
arrayed like one of these.

6:30 Wherefore, if God so clothe the grass of the field, which to day is,
and to morrow is cast into the oven, shall he not much more clothe
you, O ye of little faith?

6:31 Therefore take no thought, saying, What shall we eat? or, What
shall we drink? or, Wherewithal shall we be clothed?

6:32 (For after all these things do the Gentiles seek: ) for your heavenly
Father knoweth that ye have need of all these things.

6:33 But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all
these things shall be added unto you.

Rose, I once read a book called "The 'I' in the storm." I don't remember who wrote it but do you see what is happening here.

In the midst of life's storms who are you centred on?


God never ever turns His back on you.

Mar 12:30 And you shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your mind, and with all your strength: this is the first commandment.



We all need to examine ourselves in light of that verse not just you Rose.

:hug: Love you!
