ABORTION

Recently, I have been confronted with the reality of multi abortions in the lives of many women, even "Christian" women. Some women subject themselves to as many as five to six abortions which is simply unimaginable.
 
Well, very early one morning, Holy Spirit woke me up with the statement "Call a spade a spade" as He referenced the discussions that I had been privy to.  I am aware of that phrase from various strata of our society, but I looked it up anyway. 
 
Wikipedia says, "To call a spade a spade" is a figure of speech which explicitly calls out something as it is; by its right name.  The implication is to not lie about what something is and to instead speak honestly and directly about a topic, specifically topics that others may avoid speaking about due to their sensitivity, unpleasant or embarrassing nature."
 
Well, I realize as a seasoned Prophet, up in age, that truth must be spoken in due season and in love; so I simply listened to Holy Spirit as well as reflected on the teachings and information derived from some Pastors, Church Leaders and some Medical Experts as to the origin of a life.
 
As many of them believe, I also believe that life takes place at conception, and that the taking of that life equates to murder (a hard word); and numerous abortions equate to mass murder (a harder word); and the continued practice equates to serial killing ( no other word for it). 
 
Women have abortions for various reasons...rape, health problems, unmarried, married and not ready; etc.  Whatever the reason it is worth being conscious of what the act really is in order to ask God for forgiveness which He will readily grant when you are sincere.  To ask for forgiveness (to repent) means to regret an action and to determine not to repeat it. 
 
Years ago, a well known Pastor publicly stated that he had ministered to scores of women who had constant nightmares, hearing babies crying and seeing visions of babies everywhere, after having their abortions.  He walked them through a healing process of acknowledging the truth of the act, repenting for it, and receiving/accepting forgiveness which led to their healing. 
 
There  has to be a place of acknowledgement in order to receive the deliverance because James 5:16a advises us to "Confess your faults one to another, and pray one for another, that ye may be healed."  You don't have to tell the world necessarily, but you do need to make a confession and to ask God for forgiveness because this deep seated hurt, grief, anger, secret, or doubt manifests in various physical, mental and emotional maladies.
 
We pray that you are never or never again in a position to face making such a decision, but if you are we pray that  knowledge and the grace of God will guide you.

Receive It All!

Why are so many Christians living defeated while pretending to be "Blessed"? They might have a great job/position, house, vehicle or ministry, but they are depressed and oppressed, sad and sick, angry and mentally disturbed, fearful and uncertain, full of doubt and unbelief. I heard The Lord say that many even come before Him "flogging"...pretending one thing when it's really another. We might not tell each other the truth about our actual situations, but God wants you to approach His throne with honesty because He can deal with your "truth." Through truth you can receive help for your spirit, soul and body. Life is real!
 
Many are just doing church with no real joy and no real victories. This is not pleasing to Father because He provided for all of this at the cross through His Son Jesus. Take inventory, and get real with yourself and with God. It grieves Him to see His children faking it. Holy Spirit reminds us that "For the kingdom of God is not meat and drink (stuff and things); but righteousness, and peace, and joy in the Holy Ghost."
 
 God's way is real and it works. We just have to stop settling for less (religion) and go for the real thing (true relationship with our Heavenly Father). He is waiting!
 
 
Yes, someone said that many need a "De-mask-us" road experience as Paul had. Let it be, Lord, because there is deliverance in truth...in knowing the truth and in telling the truth
