Conference

This week God is showing me quite a bit as I prepared for the past couple of weeks for the Black Rock Church annual mission conference. I always loved attending each year; and I am honored to be a part of it this time! I used to go to the missionaries' tables and I prayed for the day God would send me as my heart for missions continued.
A word God has been reminding me of this week is "protection". I need to be in prayer to protect myself from the "evil of this world", as Jesus says in the Bible. In order to stand firm, and not to be swayed back and forth, I need to be grounded in His protection. Jesus promises this protection when He declares Himself as the Shepherd in John 10:10 in those famous passages "the sheep know my voice...no one can snatch them out of my hand". It is so important for me right now to be guarded with all the armor (Eph 6:10). I, like all the saints, have the authority of Christ at my fingertips!
In my life right now, counseling families going through drug abuse and recovery; I sense it getting more difficult in my spirit. This is not something that I can do alone. I need the power of God. This is why He tells me about "protection" now so that I will be keen and savvy against the schemes of the enemy when I am in Lebanon.
Please pray with me in this! I appreciate it!
