“But now thus saith the Lord that created thee, O Jacob, and he that formed thee, O Israel, Fear not for I have redeemed thee, I have called thee by thy name; thou art mine”…. Isaiah 43 v 1
There is a spiritual battle going on in my household over the salvation of my husband Ray. I met Ray 2 years ago and we fell in love and married. But there are several things that cause friction between us one is his love of the tv and the difference in our beliefs.
(thank you for all your prayers!). Last night Ray actually spoke out about the Bible having to be taken literally - this was a real breakthrough but the battle commences.
On my morning walk with Cindy I found myself speaking out from the Word of God and in fact some months ago put scriptures on my mobile phone, so I could listen to them. Whilst Cindy was digging on the beach I listened to Psalm 11 and Matthew 5. I also started to sing some praise hymns especially one about making the devil flee. I could only remember some of the words but hummed the rest.
At home still in fear and turmoil, not being able to shake the devil off my back Jesus met me in such a real way. He knows of my insecurities, fears and not being accepted and loved. I was led to the scripture John 11 and the verse was which shouted to me of his love was this:-
“Therefore his sisters sent unto him, saying, Lord behold, he whom thou lovest is sick”
Through this scripture the Holy Spirit reminded of when Jesus came to me when I was sick back in 2004. For those who have not read my testimony the Risen Jesus revealed himself to me in an amazing way. I felt the love of Jesus so much this morning all my fears disappeared and was comforted in my distress. This was the reassurance I needed today.

Heavenly Father, I pray today that you will meet all the needs of your children today, this hour. May they know of your great love for them and that you hold them in the palm of your hands and none can be plucked out. May Jesus shower healing rain upon your children too and deep wounds and hurts taken and plunged into the sea forever! Renew our minds Lord and may we meditate more and more upon your Word and grow to love you more dearly and clearly. In Jesus' name I pray. Amen !
