am i right or wrong

[Mazelyn Abad]

I don't know if what i did was wrong or right...a few months ago i posted a prayer request in one of the christian site to my husband's co-worker because i felt bothered with their souls for not knowing GOD because of what they are commenting in my post in facebook regarding GOD or bible verses i posted there. They even insult GOD and tell things that are bad. After 4 months one of his coworker found about that and i don't know how he found out about that post...since the site removes the previous prayer request there. Now they're all mad at me and my husband and his boss told my husband that his career is over and he will banned him so he will no longer go on board even to other ship. Why they are like that i only ask for prayers and the my wrong is that i posted their names there. I don't know if what i did was right that i ask for prayer request for their souls. and now my husband is mad at me and doesn't want to talk to me. I am feeling now that the devil is working so hard to brake me. It puzzled me that after a long months it's only now that they found out that prayer request. And now i am thinking that i shouldn't done that...i just felt that as a christian it's my responsibility to pray for them and ask for prayers from other but the prayer i ask that they might see GOD isn't work they see the prayer request. Don't know what to do or what to say. I feel so bad about it.
And one more thing is it right if i email his boss and apologies for what i posted there. I need some advice and prayers too.
Please pray for me and my husband that he can find another ship to work with and stop blaming me for what happen.

thanks a lot. GOD BLESS YOU ALL

Wow! Some life lessons learned here, huh.

Fear not, for the Lord is with you. Mazelyn, this could end up being a blessing....?
God may have other plans for you to prosper?

Take a step back and look at the lessons learned here.

For one, it seems like they can dish it out, but they can't take it.
Oh, they can critisize your God, put Him down, spit on Him, crusify Him alright.
But turn the tables and show some christian love, offering prayer...Hah!
Mazelyn, the shame is upon them! Not you.

Okay, maybe you could have been a little more tactfull??? But this is a lesson learned for you.
Don't print specific names. Okay, you got that one. Perhaps in the future say simply, coworkers or
aquaintences, something a little more vague. God knows who they are.

Seems like the boss is also offended by your God. I do not think he would accept an apology.
Some cultures this would make matters worse. If you feel you need to apologize for any thing,
say it to God and let God deal with it in your heart. You serve God, not your husband's boss.

Did you perhaps have a laps in judgement in posting the prayer request?
Maybe it was too specific, but in your heart you were doing what most good christians do,
seek prayer and a building of a hedge of protection for your husband and asking God to
open the eyes of the heathen. If the eyes of the heathen can't yet see, at least you held
to the love of Jesus and what He stood for. There is no shame in that.

So, you stood up like a christian ought to do. You got hammered for it. They threw you down,
beat you, spit on you, cursed you and your husband. CONGRATULATIONS!!!!
Blessed are those who are persecuted for His name sake.

You Go Girl!

And remember this, the devil will try to divide the church. Husband against wife,
friend against friend, christian against their own faith, etc...
But you hold fast and tight to Jesus, Mazelyn!
He's the answer in all of this. Sometimes you have to fight the good fight.
Put on your Armor! Stand strong! Pray on it. Ask God for wisdom over this matter.
Listen for His answer. Pray for your husband in all matters. A strong and devoted wife
is a vertuous woman in the eyes of God.

I remember the prayer request you posted here at the Oasis. I prayed for your husband
and his "partners in business" (actually I spoke each name as was printed )

The devil has his hand in this. Rebuke him in Jesus name. In your house you serve Jesus Christ!
Ain't no roaring lion lerking about going to scare you! If he should come knocking at your door,
you let Jesus answer it. For Jesus resides in you now!

So we've learned some life lessons here. Good for you, Mazelyn! Now you have aquired more wisdom.
See, I told you maybe God has something better in store for you and your family. Don't cower to the
world. For, He, that is in you, Mazelyn, is greater than he that is in the world.

YOU GO GIRL !!!

You got my prayers. I'm standing with you and your husband, Mazelyn.

Your Brother in Christ Jesus,
Timothy

wow, great answer by Timothy
I agree your intentions were good but should have left out the names. How did they find it after post was deleted? Sometimes you can google a name and it will show up... even old post may slip thru.

When someone doesn't believe in God the way we do, then anything positive is seen as slander. My husband goes to Catholic church on Sundays. He believes he is good because he does but doesn't see the little things he does in life that would be hurtful to God as being wrong. So if someone said he wasn't a Godly person, he would think they are wrong and be upset.

Why did it happen now? You have been getting closer to Jesus and understanding and wanting more so enemy will use anything to try to get in your way.
You have been getting closer to Jesus and understanding and wanting more so maybe God has another plan for your husband that changes the ships he usually goes on.

mazy... right now, ask Holy Spirit what He wants you to do
take out a pad and pen and write as you feel.

Father, I ask that you bless mazy now and give her ears to hear and eyes to see
take off the blinders that this has caused
peace and comfort
knowledge and wisdom
and no more fear
in Jesus name I pray
amen
say out loud... I bind the evil influences in Jesus name... I bind my own thoughts in Jesus name because I want to hear from you alone Lord.
Then ask Him to forgive your sins, known or unknown... give them time to come and ask forgiveness for each or forgive those you need. You may have to forgive these people and yourself but let the Lord guide you.
Then ask God not why but what you need to do now. I will sometimes write down a question as I ask so I remember what the answer goes to.
Don't stop to read what you are writing because that will stop the flow...wait until you are done.

Fear is from the enemy and he will use it. Faith is opposite and of our Lord so keep going forward in faith.
Your husband is mad right now so don't try to push his forgiveness... show by example that you believe God has this.

wooohooo! Thank You, Holy Spirit, for the wisdom given in this thread.

Praying for all concerned here. His perfect will be done in and through this. He does have a plan!

in Jesus,
love momo

[Mazelyn Abad]

thank you all for the wonderful replies to my message. I want to ask you all to continue to pray for me because i am feeling broken and weak. I know that GOD has a plan for me but still i have this fear inside of me. Maybe because i love my husband so much and i don't want to lose him. He's coming home this saturday and I don't know if he's going to live here or what and that's whats makes me more sad and afraid. Please continue to pray for us.
Love you all and may GOD bless you always

[Timothy]

Lord, I pray in full agreement with deetu and momof3.
Amen.

Holy Spirit sends some great ideas to us through deetu.
Thank you Holy Spirit.

Prayer continue.

[ServeGod]

In accord to what was replied from the Holy spirit spoken through our sisters and brother Tim, we pray that the lord gives you words and actions. As much as you love your husband, put no man above God.
May he take your worries, and give you strength and guidance... your not alone, don't forget the power that abides in you.

Wow, talk about good timing. I was just reading about the Iranian pastor who will probably be executed if he doesn't recant his faith in Jesus. Then I was reading about the teachers in Tennessee who were ordered not to pray publicly today in front of the students who gathered to pray around the flag pole. There sure is a lot of people lately ordering Christians to hide their faith. I think if someone orders me to hide my faith, I will tell them it is against my faith to hide it.

I am in agreement with the other comments and will pray for you all. These guys at Oasis are great.

Keep us posted? It is good for your soul to stand up for Jesus. Good on you. Gods blessings on your day.

...love it Flute...can I borrow that??

[flutemusic67]

Momo, most certainly! Glad someone else found humor in that statement. Love you!

[momof3]

awww, Fluteloops...thank you! Love you too!

[chrisday]

I am actually glad you are open about your faith, it seems we need a bit more of that.

People seem to treat prayer as taboo in today's society and it makes me pretty sad.
