The Internet is a POWERFUL tool when used appropriately!
Due to the nature of my career (a Virtual Assistant), I spend alot of time networking with others on various social marketing/media sites. It’s important to note–the Internet is a powerful tool, when used appropriately!
Within the past month, I’ve had reason to be “suspicious” of others wanting to connect with me on Facebook. I connected with a couple of “so-called Godly men,” and communicated with them thinking it might be who God had in store for me, or possibly a Godly business connection. Being on my guard as a Godly woman expecting only God’s best in my life, I listened with my spiritual ears. Keeping in mind several things: ”Out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaketh.” “Only good and perfect gifts come from the Father of Lights in whom there is no variableness, nor shadow of turning.” ”He who findeth a wife findeth a good thing.” Please allow me to expound….they will find me/us, I won’t find them! What was really sad was that both of these men used a “fake relationship with God” on their pages to draw the women in. This should tell real men of God what women are seeking…..right?
I wasn’t seeking, but I was open to God’s leading. Let me repeat…Open to GOD’S LEADING! As I conversed, things just didn’t line up. So, I saw no need to continue any of the conversations, except to pray for those who were attempting to use women in their game. That’s Biblical too. “Pray for those who hate you, and despitefully use you.”
Then I received a couple of messages from women that were also connected with these individuals. That’s when the TRUTH was revealed! These men were attempting to play us as fools. One of the ladies who wrote to me inquiring about the individual I was connected with turned out to be a Sister in the Lord half-way across the state. So, I prayed with her, encouraged her, and the light exposed the darkness. Women, we are PRECIOUS TO GOD!
One lady wrote about her experience, and I think it’s important for other women on Facebook to be AWARE that these con-men are out there. ”There is NOTHING hidden that shall not be revealed.” So, before you attempt to coerce a woman of God, just know…”If God be for us, who can be against us.” I pray each and every woman who sees this will take heed. Always be on your Spiritual guard! We are MORE THAN CONQUERORS in Christ Jesus!!! God has placed the SPIRIT OF TRUTH inside of each and every one of us. The Holy Spirit will prompt you when something doesn’t seem right! He was prompting me, that’s why I became very suspicious, and ultimately disconnected the connection! God is FAITHFUL!!! So please read, please be sensitive to the Spirit of God, and please know that God sees you as VALUABLE!!! Go, and be safe on the Internet!
