He has heard your prayers and has granted me grace because of your intercessions. I PRAISE HIM, AND I THANK YOU. Confession: My husband also was doing very well.... except that he fell into temptation and engaged in an argument with someone... and then i think i also fell into the same trap and contended with that same person - in defense of my husband... i KNEW what was happening, but i was just too self-righteous to let someone slander my husband. I need to be so careful with such things.... since now who knows what kind of foothold i have given Satan.... and certainly does not aid godly living and then this affects my walk in very subtle ways. And i think all this happened because i was just not feeling well at all and did not interceed/pray: "And when He rose from prayer, He came to the disciples and found them sleeping from sorrow, and said to them, 'Why are you sleeping? Rise and pray that you may not enter into temptation.'" (Luke 22:45-46) PRAYER PRAYER PRAYER PRAYER.... i cannot stress enough how important this seems to be..... May i and my husband become ever more cautious in regards to our spiritual walk.
