They are speaking of where they need to be. They speak of the long line and still speak of their new wares they are taking home for their own desires. Now in a store, like a grocery market, food is generally the theme. YOU hear the "I want", with the response, "That is not a vegetable"......and then the conversation ends with a "snort" or something close to it.
Yes, people in lines can be excited about going on the next ride, like at Disneyland, Magic Mountain or what about those lines at the movies? I remember seeing a line clear around the movie theater in a small town in Wyoming when Saturday Night Fever came out. (yes, that was the 70's) And I am not sure why there was such a line. I did not think there was that many young people in the city, ourselves included, but the size of that line made me think, "not all of them are getting in to see the flick"!
Then I remember the times I wanted the 405 ramp and was in the extreme "left land" of the highway. Of course, could I not see the super LONG LINE to my right that started about a mile back? No! Let's see now, if I drive another two miles and exit off, I can cross over and drive back about 5 miles to get back on the highway, but be far enough back to stay in right hand LANE to exit onto ramp for 405. Okay, no hurry that way or taking the SUPER LONG WAY AROUND! What was I thinking when leaving work?
But there is another line, I am thinking about. It is composed of women of any age who have been mistreated, abused, the beaten, the betrayed, the abandoned and the left for dead. I see a line of women who should be honored for their gift of having a child. I see women who had homes, but have been left to fend for themselves in a world that seeks to lust after youthful things. I think today of women who need a loving hug in friendship, not in how much they can give the other. I see women who are left to their own devices of not having a job, not having a real education but raised a family only to be abused by the spouse and left to live what life they have remaining in loneliness, and despair. What a broken spirit she must have!
Yes there is a line of women who know not their true identity in Christ. Their world is nothing of order, but is seen as sickness, sadness and loss.
They are weighted down with ugliness others have placed on them. But there was "no shame" in the garden.
Genesis 2:24-25
24 Therefore a man shall leave his father and mother and be joined to his wife, and they shall become one flesh. 25 And they were both naked, the man and his wife, and were not ashamed. NKJV
There was no shame in the garden of Eden. It was not known, for God did not give them shame to know. It was when satan entered the garden that shame appeared.
Genesis 3:9-12
9 Then the LORD God called to Adam and said to him, "Where are you?" 10 So he said, "I heard Your voice in the garden, and I was afraid because I was naked; and I hid myself." 11 And He said, "Who told you that you were naked? Have you eaten from the tree of which I commanded you that you should not eat?" 12 Then the man said, "The woman whom You gave to be with me, she gave me of the tree, and I ate." NKJV
Proverbs 3:35
35 The wise shall inherit glory,
But shame shall be the legacy of fools. NKJV
Fools attack others. They come with "their own desires" and take from those who are considered the lesser,yes, the weaker, those with little or no self esteem! Those who have done this to women will leave a legacy that only fools can leave. For God truly wants those who have been the wounded, the abused, and the abandoned to know He is watching. And He will have His day! HIS JUSTICE WILL ROLL ON LIKE A RIVER!
Amos 5:23-24
23 Away with the noise of your songs!
I will not listen to the music of your harps.
24 But let justice roll on like a river,
righteousness like a never-failing stream!
NIV
We must lift women up to Him, and pray for their security to come in Him. Let's lift those who have no one to walk with them to their final day and their final breath.
Amos 5:23-24
23 Away with the noise of your songs!
I will not listen to the music of your harps.
24 But let justice roll on like a river,
righteousness like a never-failing stream!
NIV
We must lift women up to Him, and pray for their security to come in Him. Let's lift those who have no one to walk with them to their final day and their final breath.
Psalm 44:15-16
15 My dishonor is continually before me,
And the shame of my face has covered me,
16 Because of the voice of him who reproaches and reviles,
Because of the enemy and the avenger. NKJV
For women who have this outlook see themselves like the verses speak above. They are the covered in shame. But it is the adversary, the devil who continues to voice the hurt, the pain, the loneliness and tears speaking that no one cares!
Women are more than just a body, Women have minds, and they have the ability to bring forth a child when conceived in their wombs. Women are of value. They nurture babies. They bring them forth in love and never leave them to fend for themselves. For most women, they endured to have their child or children AND bring them into a home with much love and care. In that Father, I would ask You to keep them in the bosom of Your love. Thank You for protecting that woman in her day of deliverance of child and answering her prayers for the baby of her love.
Women of all ages today stand in a line, waiting their turn to be released from that which seems endless. Their plight was begun in the garden of Eden, but it does not mean they have to remain in it. For we truly have a Savior who died for those who would believe in Him. Romans 4:24-25
for us who believe in him who raised Jesus our Lord from the dead. 25 He was delivered over to death for our sins and was raised to life for our justification.
Deuteronomy 32:28-35
28 "For they are a nation void of counsel,
Nor is there any understanding in them.
29 Oh, that they were wise, that they understood this,
That they would consider their latter end!
30 How could one chase a thousand,
And two put ten thousand to flight,
Unless their Rock had sold them,
And the LORD had surrendered them?
31 For their rock is not like our Rock,
Even our enemies themselves being judges.
32 For their vine is of the vine of Sodom
And of the fields of Gomorrah;
Their grapes are grapes of gall,
Their clusters are bitter.
33 Their wine is the poison of serpents,
And the cruel venom of cobras.
34'Is this not laid up in store with Me,
Sealed up among My treasures?
35 Vengeance is Mine, and recompense;
Their foot shall slip in due time;
For the day of their calamity is at hand,
And the things to come hasten upon them.' NKJV
There is a group......a nation...if you will.....of a people (men)..who are the void of counsel. They have no understanding. They see not nor understand truth and the importance of Godly wisdom. Those planted into the world's system and the culture, are established on a rock of "me, myself and I". Their intent is to take and take....speaking much like Proverbs 30:15.........15 "The leech has two daughters.
'Give! Give!' they cry.
Somehow society dictates women are to be submissive, but they ARE NOT TO BE SUBMISSIVE TO HARANGUE OR ANY KIND OF ABUSIVE SITUATION. The one who bullies another is the individual who are gall as they deal out pain, their demand for their own way, and they inflict with words of venom toward the woman they violently harass. They are the bitter and the cruel in their demeanor. They are hostile and seek evil against women.
But God is the "women's " Advocate, and He will deliver. For those mistreating a woman in any way will find that calamity will come hard upon them.
for us who believe in him who raised Jesus our Lord from the dead. 25 He was delivered over to death for our sins and was raised to life for our justification.

Many of these are women are those who just want to please. They think if they over extend themselves into some unusual behavior some guy will think more about them and truly care with love for the. But you cannot please the devil. He came to steal, kill and destroy.
Today, I reach out with others who will read this and take it to heart that we must pray for those who are our sisters in the Lord. God is merciful and is much more merciful than human beings.
Today we pray for those in the abusive lifestyle, those who think they need to remove their clothes to be loved, and for those who are left, those in their 50's and 60's after many years of sacrifice, love and service to family members, are now counted among those without hope or any love. We seek to pray for those coming out of the situations to let go of any resentment toward others. May they know the grace of God that sets them free to experience God's love and trust. May they see clearly the abusive behavior, the hatred, strife and rage and any decisive harangue speaking as to any sexual, physical and verbal content.
God has much more for His ladies. For those who love HIM, He never leaves or forsakes. To any of the women found in this kind of human torture, should be looked after by THE children who were given life in early years. Grown children who ignore the abused "mother" look a lot like those who would rather forget their mother than to honor them! Judgement will come to them, the grown children, if they continue to ignore the environment of bodily harm their mother may be experiencing. And choosing to give no help is not good. For we are to honor our parents all the days of our lives.
Matthew 15:3-9
3 Jesus replied, "And why do you break the command of God for the sake of your tradition? 4 For God said, 'Honor your father and mother' and 'Anyone who curses his father or mother must be put to death.' 5 But you say that if a man says to his father or mother, 'Whatever help you might otherwise have received from me is a gift devoted to God,' 6 he is not to 'honor his father' with it. Thus you nullify the word of God for the sake of your tradition. 7 You hypocrites! Isaiah was right when he prophesied about you:
8 "'These people honor me with their lips,
but their hearts are far from me.
9 They worship me in vain;
their teachings are but rules taught by men.'" NIV
For women everywhere, may the God of mercy speak to each in their situation. Lamentations 3:22-24............22 Through the LORD's mercies we are not consumed, Because His compassions fail not.
23 They are new every morning;
Great is Your faithfulness.
24 "The LORD is my portion," says my soul,
"Therefore I hope in Him!" NKJV
For those who were married, let those men come to their senses. May they know that God brought them, he and his wife together in a faithful union. As the wife of his youth, he the husband is to keep covenant. That is, he is to hate divorce. For our God hates divorce and cruel men. May these men control their passions and never divorce their wives for any reason.

Any women who walk in generational curses of this nature are over-comers by the Blood of the Lamb and by the word of their testimony.
Women who are in dire straits must look for truth in God. Any uncontrollable anger or rage is a curse and should be dealt with as such.
Order, Order, Order come to these who desire to leave the abuse behind. Father be their Gardener. May any vile thing, any cancerous evil be thrown into the garbage never to return to any of their lives.
Father God, in Jesus' name, we pray for women who are the abused and considered less than equals to man. Jesus was sent to bind up the broken-heart and to heal pain. Father You sent Your Word and healed them and delivered them from their destruction. Help them know it is not over. They still have lives to live and bring praise to You God for delivering them. Father, You love unconditionally. For those growing weary in their day to day existence, may they find joy, peace and love in YOU. May they see truth and light in that which comes from the Father of Lights of whom there is no changing. YOU NEVER CHANGE YOUR MIND! (James 1:17)
Father, we pray that these women who desire the way out of this kind of bondage, would know that any anxiety and fear will neutralize their faith. May these women speak and affirm their faith is in You. May they make definite requests for their needs and cast all care on You for YOU care for them.
Father, Your best for them is found in Your Word. It is to encourage them, build their faith, and regard You as their God. Help them not to be passive about change. Help them to see where change must occur to come out of hurtful bondage.

Lord help them to be always forgiving and show any who may not be doing that. Expose the recesses of souls so they will not be locked up by any unforgiveness. Enable them to love their enemies as You Father have commanded in Your Word.
Today I also pray they would desire to choose You and walk free from the death that unforgiveness brings. Enable them to walk in light and be cleansed from all sin. Thank You for the plans and purposes You hold for their lives. Today You are their Healer, Deliverer, Provider and Redeemer. Comfort them in this day. Show them the way of true worship. Give them words of praise to sing out of their mouths and may a joyful step come back in their walk.
