I wasn’t sure whether I was to post this praise. The enemy was trying to steal it by telling me if I’m still worried about the OW and my EH then I must not be putting my HL first. he was telling me if I posted it on here that you all would think I’m not maturing. etc.
Then I heard Him say “post it, I answered your prayer”!
So my praise is He answered my prayer. I’m not sure if I’ve ever posted regarding my EH still staying in contact with the other woman, but I have commented regarding the issue. Not only when we were first restored we were giving the other woman rides to work but after that was over they would still text each other just about mutual friends etc. so I have prayed a few times a month, since August, that she would find somebody new. I prayed the hedge of protection around my husband, and that she would lose interest and find another. It finally happened. She found somebody and has no longer tried texting my EH any longer.
Thank you sharing Hope-Darling! Nothing more encouraging than hearing prayer to God is answered. Our Lord is good!
It seemed like it would never end sometimes but, of course, He is faithful. I’m glad He used it to encourage others like you. 💕
Thank for sharing hope. One think I love about our heavenly husband is that he loves to hear our concerns and he desires to bless us with with the desires of our heart. Like he tells us in his word that delight yourself in his word then he will give our heart desires.
Thank you for that reminder. 💜
1 Don’t worry about the wicked
or envy those who do wrong.
2 For like grass, they soon fade away.
Like spring flowers, they soon wither.
3 Trust in the Lord and do good.
Then you will live safely in the land and prosper.
4 Take delight in the Lord,
and he will give you your heart’s desires.
Ps37:1-4
You were RIGHT to post PRAISE for many reasons, here’s a couple:
1. HE deserves the praise, and you proved you care more about HIM than what anyone thinks about you (though the enemy is a liar and no one thinks anything negative).
2. GOD answers prayers like this once we DON’T CARE. The fact is, this proves you ARE mature. You don’t care like you would when you failed to let go, but that’s the point.
WELL DONE YOU!!
“THANK You my Darling for this answered prayer proof that Hope is “delighting herself in YOU” so you lovingly “give her the desires of her heart” once her heart was YOURS.”
I appreciate you confirming what He told me, He would want me to post this praise. 💗 I could eventually tell the enemy was trying to make me feel foolish for wanting to post.
Psalm 37:10 ESV In just a little while, the wicked will be no more; though you look carefully at his place, he will not be there.
You reminding me of this scripture l stood on when it felt like eh would never stop communicating with ow and He worked with her too so it was really hard for me, l used to pray and beg for Him to remove ow. He was faithful to remove her just like what you shared here but only when l was able to let go. He not only removed the ow but ow sister attended the church we attended as a family.. we not only got remarried but I had my restoration baby at the same time ow sister had her 1st child…. Its been years now and God has completely RESTORED my marriage. We even moved to another town.. He completes the good work HE starts in us 😍
I’m sooo glad like Erin said you listened to His voice and came to share because this is a platform where we need to share because there’s so many women that are in this part of their journey coming to visit this blog and website that’s needs this encouragement!! 🙌🏾
Atarah, thank you for that scripture and reminding me that you have also went through similar issues in your journey and the Lord has brought you through. 🥰
Thank you for following His lead and sharing Hope! I am amazed when I read about answered prayers, for His glory, and that should be shared to encourage other women who are currently facing what you were facing, to give them hope and encourage them to keep on praying and trusting. We never know who needs to hear our testimonies and who He leads to listen to our testimonies.
I’m glad our HL could bring some encouragement with this trial. It seemed like it would never end sometimes but, of course, He is faithful.
You are right, we never know who might need to hear it. 💕
