I believe in holiness & live that way. I’m not perfect but I do not practice sin. I’ve been kicked out of churches that want to tell people you can live in sin & go to heaven, I’ve been ostracized, beat up in my island home. I’ve been struggling now financially for years & I’m in my 6th homeless shelter because of these problems. Right now I’m in a place where there really is not time limit & we have to go out & raise money for our rent & get a commission.
For over 10 years now people have gone out of their way to find me no matter where I go & cause me problems. They love to spread the story that I am a lesbian even though I’ve been celibate for over 20 years. They tell women I like to stare at them & I have a dirty mind. This causes problems on whatever job I have as everything I do & say is interpreted through these lies. Men & women ignore me when I try to witness about Jesus.
As usual it is costing me on my job. I have a lady who is in charge of the office that sends us out to different areas to raise money who is a lesbian & she can not stand me. She hates me for saying telling people I believe that sex outside of marriage is a sin. Well, she’s not the only one.
Wherever I go & I’m doing well, she sends people to that area when I’m not there to spread these rumors. So my commission has seen a huge drop. I’m still alright for now but I’m used to making less & less until I’m making nothing when it comes to commission only work. So, I’m getting stressed because it’s been happening the same way for over 10 years now.

Please pray for my deliverance. I’ve posted on other prayer sites & people never pray for God to deliver me & stop these lies, they pray for peace. Please, please pray for deliverance & that God would oppose, frustrate & defeat my enemies.
1 Peter 3:12(AMP)
12 For the eyes of the Lord are upon the righteous (those who are upright and in right standing with God), and His ears are attentive to their prayer. But the face of the Lord is against those who practice evil [to oppose them, to frustrate, and defeat them].
Philippians 1:19(GNT)
19 because I know that by means of your prayers and the help which comes from the Spirit of Jesus Christ I shall be set free.

3leelee,

I want you to know that I have been praying for your deliverance. I will continue to do so.

Timothy

I'm praying for you too, 3leelee.

I hope this helps some,

Often times those in Christ focus on eternal judgement and the lost dying and going to hell and carry the guilt that if they dont tell EVERYONE then they will be held accountable before God. Then you get those who dont tell anyone because they believe that God for knew so they dont have to do anything.

What we lack in the Christian faith is discernment and wisdom. I to am learning and growing no matter what some may think. I found out that the time to share is when it is Holy Spirit lead, not self driven. Remember Jesus said do not toss pearl to swine... you are dishing out pearls of great price and it is costing you more grief than all the blessings God has for you. Rich or poor isnt the issue of who is qualified to share salvation but if you are poor in spirit , your offers of eternal riches, most will reject.

Your life example will speek louder than words, not the words with the stress in it, they will push you away and I don't blame them. And I to have been guilty for this same issue. You are not alone in this. Yes God can use you at any point in life up or down and out... but what God is interested is in you, getting you restored, if you are full of frustration ect, that is what is going to come out.

Just to let you know, it wasnt the preaching of others telling me what I was doing right or wrong that changed my life, it was those who let the Holy Spirit do his own job while they just showed love to me. When I got hungry enough I asked. I understand Christians suffer persecution but often Christians persecute eachother and the nonbelievers. Let the Holy Spirit do his will in us all.
