STANDING UP FOR THE TRUTH!


      Blatant satanic attack came upon on my family.  During this time, I told the kids they must obey the Word of God by obeying Mom and Dad or things could happen that would not be good.  If they disobeyed, the Enemy could come against them.
      Normally, I ignore calls from all research companies because I either don't have the time, or the hours for the amount is not worth it.  However, this one time that a certain research company called, I looked at the caller ID, and I felt the Holy Spirit encourage me to answer.   It was impressed upon my heart, "It's a friend."
       I picked up the phone only to realize it was a research company calling.  Like I said, the pay had to be worth the effort.  Well, it was just that, so I decided to let them interview me.  I was sure, they'd drop me, but they didn't!
      So, I went to the research survey event that was not being held at their company building. As I was just getting there, driving through the parking lot,  the Holy Spirit put in my heart that I was going to be interrupted in the middle of the survey because of an injury to one of my kids.  Just moments later, my second born daughter called and said, "Mom, can we cook cookies?"
      After saying a quick, 'yes,' I hung up.  Suddenly, I remember what the Holy Spirit had just acknowledge in my heart, and that my husband, during an earlier discussion, had told me the kids should not cook cookies while home alone that day.  I quickly called back my daughter, and told her not to do the cookies.  I shared with her what had just gone into my heart before she called.  Her answer was, "YES MOM!"  She had just stuck a tray of cookies into the oven, so she pulled them out, turned off the oven and put everything away in the frig.
       Later on, I heard the story from the kids perspective.  My oldest daughter had no idea why she told my second born daughter to call and confirm with me if it was okay.  I figured that she had overheard my husband and I talking.   Whatever the situation, the Lord was watching out for our family and wanted me to not be interrupted.
       While at the building where the survey was to take place, one of the leading ladies mentioned what happened during the previous survey group.  A guy had walked in who was sick wanting to still participate.  They refused him, so he requested that he still receive his money.   They once again said no, and asked him to leave.  His response was that they were discriminating against him because he was a Christian.
       Right away, I knew why God wanted me there!  I spoke up that we are waring against the demonic realm.  Let's just say, God had me standing up for this misunderstanding, and guided my words to speak the truth He wanted out.  The other three that were in my survey group were listening intently!  One nodded his head in agreement, one stay quietly looking down in her lap, and the other seemed very interested to the point he asked me what church I attended. 
  
                                    Always be ready to speak the truth in love!
