How do you deal with abuse?

After hearing how Joyce Meyer was abused by her father, it’s natural to want to know how she handled it. How does one deal with abuse? So, I got these tips from Joyce Meyer herself and I hope it helps.

Abuse means misused, used improperly, used up, wasted, to use in such a way as to cause harm or damage or to be treated cruelly. It could be sexual, abuse, emotional, physical, verbal or mental abuse and all are damaging. Any time we are misused or used for any purpose other than which God intended us is damaging.

Joyce’s story serves as an inspiration to many who may have been hurt and abused in the past. Though she had prayed to God severally to get her out of her predicament, God didn’t but rather gave her strength to go through it.

Joyce said she was grateful for what she passed through because it made her a better person than she would ever have been if she had not gone through it. It’s simply to say that if you had gone through abuse in the past or you are going through it now, God is able to turn that ugly situation around and use it for your good.

Abuse is something the victims are ashamed of talking about but rather than keep it hidden start by talking to God about it openly and honestly. Then talk to yourself openly and honestly. You have to get it out to get it over with. Don’t keep it hidden.

The reason why Satan wants you to keep it hidden is because as long as it is hidden , you can never get free from it, at least not completely. It could be something you have done or something done to you that you are ashamed of. Anyone being abused can fully recover. Joyce is the proof. God healed her sexually and emotionally because naturally someone who went through her kind of traumatic childhood never grows up a normal person. Only God can do this.

In abuse, be determined to survive. Don't give up. Don't give in. Look up to God.

There are more capabilities in us than we can ever begin to imagine but Satan tries to demean us, diminish us, belittle us through people mistreating us. Even though you may have been abused or abandoned, right in the midst of it God has a plan!

Celebrities sell their souls to the devil for fame and fortune

It is said that most Hollywood celebrities, to get to where they are today, made a deal with the devil...they sold their souls for fame and fortune. By selling their souls they submit to Satan so that he totally uses, enslaves and possesses their life, body, mind, will and soul. Satan's goal and agenda becomes theirs. Their life is no more their own. So let it not surprise you when their songs or movies serve Satan's purpose of driving men into deeper darkness. These celebrities are idolized and literally worshiped but clearly they serve Satan and channel demonic spirits through their music and movies. From the likes of Madonna,Jay Z, Beyonce, Lady Gaga, Rihanna, Nicky Minaj ,Eminem, Bob Dylan and so so many others, these are known to be demon possessed having sold their souls to the devil.

Late Hollywood actress, Marilyn Monroe, told Billy Graham, "I don't need your Jesus."

She had the perfect life anyone could dream of; remarkable wealth and great fame. Despite all that, Marilyn kept all of her sufferings to herself. One day during filming, a preacher named Billy Graham visited her. He said the Spirit of God had sent him to preach to her. After hearing what the Preacher had to say, she said: "I don't need your Jesus". During that time, Monroe who was allegedly having a romantic affair with the President of the United States, John F Kennedy. A week later, she was found dead in her bedroom. Theories of her death started to spread. Some say she was assassinated because of political conspiracies and in the end, the most accepted theory up to this day is she committed suicide. It shows that she was suffering from a severe depression. In fact it is actually the right time for her to seek God, asking for help, not to take the easy way out by taking her own life. *Hmmm... One day soon I will write on Marily...

See how music is used to cast spells...(A must read)

We love music, but do you know there could be more to music than we bargained for? The devil is desperate and we should not be ignorant of his devices and this is one of them. One weapon that he always uses is subtlety . Here's what I pulled from a Wiccan website concerning Magickal music or let me say how they cast spells in music: "A magick spell is the integration of an intent with a physical representation of that intent. "For instance, when you make a Witch’s spell pouch, out of a cloth and some herbs and oils and objects, each of those items represents a part of your intent. And in the magick, you are binding those two things: your intention and the physical world. "This brings your intention into form in the physical world. That's how magick spells work. In magickal music, the intention is wrapped up into a song, and bound into it. "When I create magickal songs, I do it with the guidance of the Divine. In a meditative state...

You think watching porn is a harmless fun? Ex-porn actress, April Garris, gives a glimpse into the ‘spiritual’ side of porn

Many think that watching porn is a harmless fun but few realize the spiritual consequence of indulging in it. The story you are about to read is a part of a testimony by a former porn actress, April Garris. While she was praying for those involved in porn, God opened her eyes to ‘see’ the demonic reality in the porn industry. The vision involved one of those porn shoots she had been involved in. She recalled what happened in the scene. As she visualized herself having hardcore sex and the people all around her, God gave her an insight into the demonic realm that controls the porn industry. She said: " In the vision, I saw a room literally filled with demons. The people involved in the production of the video including myself were completely oblivious to this horrific reality- the total demonic regime which was present. The demons themselves were doing various things. Some of them were watching us have sex. Others were roaming around ...
