Dear Partner and Friend,
Last week I shared that I was deeply impacted studying how much God loves multiplication. But how do we do that? Are you confident about sharing your faith, about ministering to others, about discipling another younger believer? Most of us, including me, are overwhelmed, perhaps even terrified at the thought. Even if you want to, you may not know where to begin.
Oswald Chambers writes today in “My Utmost for His Highest “The natural heart will do any amount of serving, but it is the heart broken by the conviction of sin, and baptized by the Holy Spirit and crumpled into the purpose of God before the life becomes the sacrament of it’s message…God takes us out of our own ideas for our lives and we are battered to “shape and use”. Before God’s message can liberate other souls, the liberation must be real in you.”
The Lord has called Love UnVeiled to set women free, to reach as many as we can, to minister to the brokenhearted, and to make disciples who will teach others. Only the word of God can bring healing and freedom to women, and it begins by experiencing His healing in our own lives. We are crumpled, but God is healing and multiplying our leaders, equipping them to teach the word, and empowering them by the Holy Spirit to liberate others.
Here are two reports from our leaders in North Carolina and India. God is using them to multiply and disciple others:
North Carolina: (Samantha directs a ministry to rehabilitate and mentor broken women in NC). She writes, “Liz, this last LUV training changed the way I was using Love UnVeiled teaching. Let me share what God is doing. I am meeting with 2 ladies this week to spend 3 days with them to teach Workshop 1. One lady will do mentor training and the other lady will possibly do discipleship training with my graduates. PRAISE GOD. I have been trying to do classes myself and do the teaching. God showed me in our training, you need to teach others so they can teach others. The ladies He wants me to teach are ladies inside the church who have been praying for God to use them. I am in awe that God wants me to teach these ladies, the very ladies that I ran from for years. God is working in our midst. I give Him all the praise and glory. Thanks for the encouragement and the tools. As you walk along beside me then I can walk along beside others. Yours in Christ, Samantha.”
India: (Martha is our Lead Coordinator in India where we have over 35 groups) “Liz, I am very excited about our butterflies. As a sign of growth, in one of my groups, God started showing us the “unsaved” women. So through God’s leading we had 2 days fasting and prayer for 1 village where there is no church. I praise God for giving us the vision to reach out to them first through prayer. I have seen my butterflies develop a greater sense of responsibility for the Kingdom and the dying souls. Matthew 9:37,38. God is still at work in them, doing Inner Healing at a deeper level. Nita, as you know has experienced a lot of freedom, found her identity in the Lord, but He is digging deep in her life. Suddenly on Monday I had to have inner healing session with her at my home and the Holy Spirit set her free from deep pain and gave her great freedom. She is also discipling one butterfly. God is is also working through Sarah and her group in another village. The Holy Spirit is convicting one of them of immorality, another of adultery, they are confessing it and receiving forgiveness and freedom in their butterfly group. Sarah whom I trained is so happy to see God using her to help these women at a deeper level in their lives and showing His love, freedom and purpose to her butterflies. Glory to Jesus!”
Praise God for His transforming love and His healing word. “He sent His word and healed them” Psalm 107:20.
Please pray for Samantha staring her new groups in NC and for Martha and the leaders in India who are impacting their villages and cities.
Yours in His precious love
Liz
