GOd has been softening my heart and as a result I feel the hurt and pain I have been trying to fight for years.

In one way I hated and still hate all that has happened, in other ways I feel very hurt and overlooked and mistreated.

In still another way at the same time I feel hope that God will see me through and although I feel bruised I know the bruise can find a refruge in the Lord.

How have you gone through these tough time and how where you able to cope. I am tired of feeling this way and in some ways never allowed to be human growing up. Nice girsl dont talk back, wait until there married, dont make waves, and lets others have the last say. This is the way in some ways how I was raised.

I want deiverance I want my promised land.

Everything that is coming up in you, let it. When the Holy Spirit heals the heart He flushes out all the pain and bad memories. That's why some people say that things get worse after salvation. Just let them come up and leave. You don't have to cling to any of it. Just feel it and let it go, saying bye bye. Your heart has to acknowledge that it was hurt in order for it to be healed. Its a good thing, have hope.

When you are hurt and hate what you hate. But remember that there is a full hope in God. Beside hope in God, there is no help. Where can you seek help when you are helpless, it is only God. Pray to God to forgive you for all the things you have done and ask for new heart. God will definitely help those who seek help. Ask, Seek & Knock. Ask help from God, Seek promise from Bible and knock the heart of God by Praise & Worship. This three tools (ASK= Ask, Seek & Knock) are a strong tools of believers.
A- Ask Help
S-Seek Promises of God.
K-Knock the Heart of God.

ASK and PUSH

P- Pray
U- Untill
S- Something
H- Happen
In this way you will be victoriouse christian. Completely rely on God. God is our refugee and fortress.

Cheers, Be of Good Courage, Forgive yourself and tune onto God Voice. This really will help you to over come your present problem.

Praying for someone else, I have found, is the quickest way to recieve God's Blessings.

Subject: Fw: READ AND RETURN


Amen...

Each and everyone's maybe going through tough times right now, but God is getting ready to bless you in a way that only He can. Keep the faith.

My instructions were to pick four (4) people that I wanted God to bless, and I picked you. Please pass this to at least four (4) people you want to be blessed and a copy back to me.
This prayer is powerful, and prayer is one of the best gifts we receive. There is no cost but a lot of rewards. Let's continue to pray for one another.
The prayer:
Father, I ask You to bless my friends, relatives and those that I care deeply for, who are reading this right now. Show them a new revelation
of Your love and power. Holy Spirit, I ask You to minister to their spirit at this very moment. Where there is pain, give them Your peace and mercy.
Where there is self-doubt, release a renewed confidence through Your grace.
Where there is need, I ask you to fulfill their needs. Bless their homes, families, finances, their goings and their comings. In Jesus' precious name.
Amen.
(If the Lord lays upon your heart to send this to more than four "4" people, you are truly
blessed).

there is an excellent book i recommend you use alongside your Bible -- "Lord, I Want to Be Whole" by Stormie Omartian. this lady was abused as a child and grew up with no reason to live. she had tried to commit suicide several times. after getting saved she went to a christian counselor who walked her through the steps she outlines in this book (and corresponding workbook) and she found freedom. cultivate a deeper relationship with god through bible reading and prayer.

but our promised land is not of this world, it is the world to come.

See Deut. 10:12: ". . .What do you think G-d expects from you? Just this: Live in his presence in holy reverence, follow the road he sets out for you, love him, serve G-d, your G-d with everything you have in you, obey the commandments and regulations of G-d that I'm commanding you today--live a good life." (From Eugene Peterson's Bible translation, "The Message")

To "start" towards this ideal. . .we need "gratitude", "endurance", "patience", "mercy". . .to name a few important qualities of mind and spirit. Take the time to read and study carefully. . .from a good sized dictionary. . .the meaning and origin of these words. . .also look up "good" (it's an amazing word and is ALWAYS how we know we are on the right path. . .when "good" results for ourselves and others whom we touch in our personal and professional lives). . .as well as the Hebrew word, "Shalom" which means far more than "peace", which is what you are seeking right now, like taking the Nestea Plunge in the middle of a hot summer day!

It may also help for you to consider these two "life style" perspectives and realities:

*You are a "warrior". . .which means the need for preparation (continuous!), constant vigilance (being/staying one step ahead so that you can more readily and alertly spot the pot holes on the road and wisely steer clear of them). . .and making "peace" at all times. . .with "war" or "conflict" being the last resort. Deeply spiritual people (and not limited to Jews or Christians!) are, in effect, peaceful warriors. . .and they live and lead by example and not words.

*Appreciate that the human mind is naturally affirmative. . .if you allow yourself to dwell on the so-called "realities" of set-backs, problems, obstacles, etc. then your response to the world will naturally seem to be from "complaint" and "victimization". If, instead, you start first. . .every day. . .throughout the day. . .and before going to bed. . .with "gratitude". . .then this power of affirmation helps you to RISE ABOVE the Game of Life: chance and circumstance dictating one's success. . .and the prospect of a long, consecutive streak of problems, setbacks, etc. What you learn, instead, is the art of making lemonaid literally out of lemons. . .until, in time. . .an amazing thing happens. . .you stop getting lemons. . .and better things happen in its place!

Last but not least. . .per your final sentence. . .don't forget that the Children of Israel did NOT get deliverance (and their Promised Land) for 40 years. . .it did not come immediately after crossing the Red Sea!

Keep at self-improvement. . .and becoming a peaceful warrior. . .daily. . .read and study the Bible of your choice. . .pay close attention to Proverbs, as well as some of Paul's Epistles/Letters that talk about the qualities and attributes of a person in Christ.

You may also find it quite helpful to read Rabbi Telushkin's wonderful book, "Biblical Literacy", especially the last section which details all 613 Torah Commandments and their meaning. Although "Gentiles" are exempt from following these Commandments, it may strike you that a deeply spiritual Jew who follows these Commandments will have much in common with that person in Christ. . .as well as the peaceful and spiritual Muslem, Hindu, Buddist, etc.

(I also love Chogyam Trungpa's "Shambhala: The Sacred Path of the Warrior" - a Tibetan Buddhist perspective but shared in a very Western, secular, and well written and caring style by a wonderful writer and teacher of Buddhism.)

Shalom to you on your amazing and wonderful Journey. . .you are off to a great start. . .be grateful for how "aware" you are now for what needs to be done going forward!

Stop trying to make someone else make you feel good. Whether it's God or your boyfriend or whoever. You are in charge of your own life. If you feel like crap it's because you want to. You enjoy feeling sorry for yourself and out of control of your own life. GET SOME BALLS!!!

God will truly bless your humility as you continue to seek Him.

This prayer is for you: Lord Jesus, please bless this seeker. Continue to soften her heart, comfort her in her sorrows, and help her to find rest and contentment in your grace and love. Amen (which means let it be so).

Grace and Peace to you, Encourager
