It Was The Best And Worst Of Weeks

 

This has been the worst of weeks and the best of weeks. It started out with an individual who became vehemently angry at me – yelling, screaming and cursing at me. I was called a pathological liar, as well as lazy and incompetent. The false accusations struck like arrows in my heart, especially since I had had a casual, friendly relationship with this person until now.

I spent an entire sleepless night picturing this individual screaming at me as I tried to sleep. I must have looked awful the next day, because someone stopped me and said, “You look like you have evil all over you.”

Well, here is the best of weeks part. This woman did not say, “You look very tired,” as I would have expected her to say. The Lord used her words to wake me up to what was happening. This was an attack from the enemy, and I needed to fight back! I had the revelation that this was light and darkness colliding. I asked the Lord to speak to me. I was done licking my wounds. I was ready to hear what He had to say.

I began to pray and bless the person that had attacked me. I went on a walk with my husband and we purposefully walked past her home and prayed for her. I am waiting on the Lord to bless and set this woman free. So, what the enemy meant to destroy me, God has used to grow me and to prompt me to pray for this woman’s freedom! In the end, as it will always be, God wins! The battle was won before it began!
