A Letter To Ms. “V”

Grace and peace.

Earlier this year, a lady wrote me requesting prayer and deliverance.  A few days ago, she wrote me again a few days ago to update me on her situation and to ask me a question.  Both times she used the prayer request form, which is confidential, so I don’t have any contact information for her, and, thus, no way to get her an answer to her questions or to get her the help she urgently needs.  

Because she was clearly in distress and looking for answers, and in the hopes that perhaps I could minister to others who may be in the same predicament, I decided to do a podcast specifically for that purpose.  It is my hope that she is at least an occasional reader of the blog, because then the chances would be pretty good that she would find this post and the attached podcast (or the episode at the iTunes Store) and be met at the point of her need.

For the edification of the Body of Christ and to the end that we may minister unto someone else out there who needs it, I present her letters here in their entirety.  Ms. “V,” I know you asked me to keep this between you and me, and I did my level best to honor your request.  But because I have no other way to answer your questions and to get you the help that you requested, I chose to go this route.  As you can see, I didn’t use your name, so no one but you knows to whom these letters and this situation really belong.  Please prayerfully listen to the podcast, for I believe the answer to your problems is there. 

Following are the letters I received from Ms. “V.”

[First letter]

Good morning.

Please help me turn away from my sinful desires.   Please pray for me to turn away from psychics and occult stuff.

I have a hard life. My father is sick, I lost my job, stressed emotionally and psychologically.  Every time I meet someone and hope to start a relationship, the same thing happens: they go back to ex girlfriends/wives. I am never left with anyone.

I want to worship God. Why can I not continue on and always go back to bad habits? Please help me. Please pray for my salvation. Please remove this evil generational curse on me.

I have had a hard time. I do pray for deliverance/salvation, but the odd thing is the same thing happens. For example, if I meet someone (because I do want to get married and have a family) they almost immediately after me go back to ex-girlfriends/wives. I am left alone. I try to turn away from psychic stuff / occult every time I say I am turning away I get weak and go back: not like I really want to, but I just do.

Can you please help me and/or guide me onto the proper path? Can this be kept private between us?

Thanks so much.

 V.

[Second letter]

I hope this email finds you well. I want to commit and follow the path of the Lord. I have had severe struggles, and sometimes it is hard to remain focused.

I continue to pray to God for salvation. Unfortunately, my life has continued with struggles: I lost my father, which now I see God wanted me to take care of him: that is why I could not find work.  

Should I continue to pray for salvation until my praying skills become stronger? I am a believer in God and just need your guidance.

Thank you so much.

V.

This is as much as I have in the way of an article.  Normally, I write the article and then do the associated podcast when time permits.  This time, however, I felt compelled to do the podcast first, as I there were some things on my heart that I wanted to say to this dear soul, and I didn’t want to forget them.

When time permits (and when I feel up to it), I’ll transcribe the podcast and produce the blog article.  In the meantime, if you are so inclined, you may find the article at our podcast, The Gospel Light and Truth Hour.  Subscribe to us at the iTunes Store today!

For your convenience, it is also available below.
