Hey, ladies! As we prepare for sleep tonight, here are some prayers to keep our heart and mind covered before bed: “In the name of Jesus, I take authority over every thought, vision, and dream that is not from God. I reject and cancel every attempt of the enemy to influence my mind while I sleep. Satan has no place in my dreams.” “Lord Jesus, cover my mind, my body, and my spirit with Your precious blood. Purify my dreams and keep me in peace and rest. Let every demonic scheme to sexualize or manipulate me in dreams be destroyed now.” “I cover my home, bedroom, and body with the blood of Jesus. No demonic presence can enter, manipulate, or influence me. I am fully protected under the Lordship of Jesus.” Have a great night, ladies!

I actually read this chapter last week and what really stood out to me was (verse 23) the fact that Michal was the daughter of Saul. She despised David’s’ joy for the Lord and if you notice Saul also has a very hardened heart towards the Lord as well. There was rebellion against God in their bloodline and she was perpetuating generational iniquity. I wonder if the Lord shut up her womb so that iniquity of rebellion wouldn’t continue in the way that it was. This is a huge reminder to really know who you end up marrying or even pray for a spouse who doesn’t have a bloodline of rebellion or a hardened heart towards God, God’s people, and the things of God. Where have I become casual with what God calls holy? My body- sometimes I’m so tired from being on my feet for all of my shift at work that I have been putting off going to the gym consistently. I understand my body is a temple for the Holy Spirit and needs to be properly cared for and I feel guilty at times for casually ignoring personal fitness. Prayer- I talk to God all day and prayer journal but I lack discipline in praying in tongues and worshiping intimately in the secret place. I want to be better in this area. My ministry- sometimes I feel like I treat the ministry God has given me as a hobby more than a calling and a true job he has gifted me with in his kingdom. I want to show up for the work he has called me to just like any other secular job. I just wanted to share this with you ladies and hope to see your comments on your Bible study notes for this weeks topic! God bless your day 💕

Hey guys! I want to share with you all something that happened to me earlier today. I was at the mall with a friend and as soon as we walked in two men approached us who began trying to evangelize us into believing there is a heavenly mother in heaven who will be making her return during these end days to reveal that she is the one who brings life. They believe that God the father has a wife who is humanities heavenly mother. I found it odd that just yesterday I was mentioning to this same friend of mine that me and another friend years ago came across this group of people who believed this same doctrine. I was explaining that I feel there’s so many other religions out there that need evangelizing to and sometimes the focus is on Muslim, Hebrew Israelites, etc. It’s funny because I said yesterday that I don’t believe evangelicalism is my calling although I do believe that all believers have to know the word and our God enough to defend the faith. Well today I was pushed into it and now I’m wondering have any of you ladies encountered this same group of people with the beliefs mentioned above. How did you handle the encounter?
