Heart and Soul

Being Domesticated

Dear Mothers at Home,

The Bible tells the older Christian woman to teach the younger women to be domesticated. Domestication is the womanly art of homekeeping. It is the inner voice of wisdom and instinct. The believer and unbeliever have this instinct. But the world beats it out of the unbelieving wife through feminism. Domestication is so easy to have that you need help from feminism to misunderstand it. It is that inner calling to go back to the land and make a place for the family. It is the calling to sew and cook and bake and have babies.

The Lord leads the birds through domestication to fly south for the winter. He speaks to the bears to hibernate and the bees to make a hive. He speaks to the ants to store food for the winter. It is that inner instinct to do what comes natural. The Bible speaks in Romans 1 about the natural knowledge of God through seeing creation. And when a person won’t receive the natural, then God gives them over to the unnatural. In other words when a woman refuses the natural place as keepers at home, she will go to the sinful place of feminism. And this is such a basic truth that Mother’s place is in the home. And when you need the discerning of spirits, you can always fall back on this basic truth.

Prov 14:1 Every wise woman builds her home and the foolish tear it down with her hands. Notice the word EVERY. That doesn’t mean that some women don’t have to go by this scripture because they are educated and the rest of us are dummies and stay home because we are stupid. But as a wife and mother who loves God this is how she grows in the reality of Christ. As she grows in God she becomes more and more domesticated. Just as a bird who stays behind for the winter isn’t more spiritual or smarter then the other birds who fly south. The foolish grasshoppers played all summer as the ants worked. The same as the feminists are playing now, while we keepers at home work and pray.

We all know that to save a nation we need good mothers.

And before I go on, “Thanks, Phillipa, for encouraging me on the phone yesterday about this computer.” Anyway, back to domestication.

To be at peace in the home is a sign of spiritual growth in Christ. To act quickly when the Lord calls you to do something out of obedience as keeper at home is a spiritual victory. To be at peace with your husband. To submit to him as your priest and lord on earth is a spiritual victory.

Feminism chases one god after the other. One idol after the next. She refuses to be domesticated and submit to her husband. So she runs out of the home and submits to all kinds of idols. She is submissive and a helper by nature. So she submits willingly to every kind of boss who is a man usually. He pays her, that’s why and her husband only gives her grocery money. These women are like prostitutes who will work for another man for money and leave their place of service to God for this world’s goods.

Now I realize some women are ignorant and not taught this stuff. They are growing in Christ and as they grow in love and dedication to Christ, they will see this. But some women see this and know better. They have walked in the meat of the Word but have decided to do their own thing. So they quit and then they use the excuse that can only come from the milk of the Word. But they can fool a few schnooks and that is what they want is the applause of man. But to our own selves we must tell the truth. Each of us must stand before God and His Word. And, of course, there is no example of feminism in the Word of God except Jezebel.

Discerning of Spirits

OK, the basic teaching of the Bible is that Adam sinned, and we are all sinners and we need a Savior and Jesus Christ is it. But the way we walk out our new life in Christ is the order of the home. The mother and father are to care for the children. We are to disciple them as parents and teach them how to be saved and after that the order of the home. For those who don’t want to marry, they should somehow help the failing Christian families about them.

We need to lead folks to Christ and then show them how to live a life that will glorify Christ. No one as a believer has that right to do their own thing. You are blood bought and saved for a reason. As you receive Christ, you have received His anointing. If you don’t use the anointing, He will take it off of you.

We as Christian wives and mothers are to multiply and replenish the earth with godly boys and girls. This command in the Bible is not to the unbelievers but to the believers. I have heard crackpots on TV speak this verse as it is only meaning spiritual fruitfulness. But they ain’t foolin’ anyone. We all know this means to have children for the Lord. And as long as they try to hoodwink us, they will continue to say offhanded to all of us that abortion is fine and birth control for the believer is fine. You can’t do more for God by not having any more children. This is all a lie of Satan as he is afraid of the godly seed.

Love,
Connie

Radio

Dear Mothers,

Boy am I prayin’ about bein’ on the radio! There are some obstacles that I am prayin’ about. I am just casting my cares upon Jesus. Oh, mercy, I want so much to be able to go into the home of mothers with a live message. I want Mothers at home to hear me say, “You can make it. It’s OK. All is well!”

I think my greatest burden is for the children. I know what it’s like to have heartbroken children who cry for their Daddy to come home. I taught my children to pray at the table, “Thank You, Jesus, for bringin’ my Daddy home.” I know what it is like to be broken hearted for my husband. And I know what it is like to have people who were supposed to be Christians say horrid things to me, adding insults to injuries. And it should never have been that way. And the Lord gave me victory. He gave me double blessings for all I suffered.

We as believers should be the counselor to the broken in heart. So many need a counselor in this age. My heart goes especially to young families. Oh, for them to be able to turn on the radio and hear an older mother say, “It’s OK. Jesus came to bind up the broken in heart and to set the captive free.”

The mourning and grieving that so many Mothers face alone is not the will of God. I used to cry bitter tears when I was alone and forsaken. I would pray, “Lord, you have called the older woman to encourage me — where is she?” Yes, the Lord has called the older Titus mother but she refuses to come. That isn’t Gods fault that so many of you young moms are forsaken.

As a child, when my brother and I would come home from school as children, we always called, “Mother? Mother?” when we came in the door. And we knew that Mother was there and ready to listen to our stories about school. And we knew that in a few hours a hot supper would be on the table. It’s not like that now in our country. And so many of our children’s souls are almost silent, having cried out into darkness for so long and no one answered.

We need multitudes of young mothers to come back home to the family. We need a multitude of older Mothers to call them back. And I am not the only one tryin’ to get on the radio. I bet there are many older moms who have heard this call of the Lord. But it has to be in the Lord’s time and I am waiting on Him. I am not going to worry over it. And I don’t want anyone else to worry over it, either. It will all gel and come together.

The Greatest Deception

Ya know women preachers are such a deception. They tell the truth for the most part. A deception is never a deception without truth. Because no one would be deceived by a person who told only lies. So these women stand up and preach the Word except for the Word concerning Keepers at home. How much heart does it take for a woman to preach and forget the children? The children are to be protected, loved and cared for. That is one of the main jobs of the wife and mother. How can any woman preacher preach and forget the children?

When Cain killed his brother Abel, the blood of Abel cried out to God. Think of the blood of 1.5 million babies a year who are right now crying out to God. And do you think God is standing there like a deaf man watching TV? And why do the lady preachers get away with all this deception and your money? Because the older woman has blasphemed the Word of God. She has hidden herself away to seek her own comfort. She has allowed lady preacher to take over and to be the voice of authority. And it is killing the heart of the young mothers, not to mention their children. Abortion thinking began in the church. I have heard of churches that made it mandatory for the young adult members to get fixed after a couple children.

Our world is not overpopulated. It’s just that no one wants to move to where there is no electricity or roads. So many are after the almighty $$$$$$ and they refuse to rough it. But any family with a pioneer spirit could have plenty of land to build a house on. Who needs electricity, anyway. As long as a person is warm and has food and water and a roof over their heads, then that is all they need.

I often wonder how many prophets of God and handmaidens of the Lord are dead at the dump because their mother and dad didn’t want them. Our population is getting so old. My own mother at 83 has the best of health care. Medicare and health insurance from my Dad’s pension. He had a good factory job. These jobs used to be pretty easy to come by. But now our nation takes the best of care of our old folks and kills the unborn, the new blood. But the older women in our day seem to have a window of opportunity here that they may not have coming up. We are, for the most part, safe at least and can teach the young mom what we know.

I was a stay at home mother. But I never expected to have my own car or cell phone or computer. Jim paid off the house so I can stay home now and care for children. I hope to cause the devil some damage as I stay here and do my work. And I don’t care how I do it. On the radio, on TV, or just through my email machine. But I do plan on causing some damage.

I am already in the soup and the furnace has been turned up three times hotter. In the middle of the night last night, reality hit me, that what I was asking for was my own radio show? My heart started to pound and I thought of all the reasons I couldn’t do it. Like Sanbalit asked Nehemiah, “Who do you think you are?” And the Syrian King stands around me telling me as he told Hezekiah’s people, “You will never get it done. Bigger guns than you have tired and I took them over and I will take you down.” But God delivered Nehemiah and Hezekiah. And trust me, I ain’t goin’ out to fight the King or the unbelievers in any way. I am waiting on God. And if He puts me over and gets me on the radio, it will be His doings.

I ain’t gonna cry to you all for a million dollars and then give you a free pen with my name on it? No, I ain’t gonna play that game. But I am saying that had the older Titus 2 mother been on the job, these lady preachers would never have gotten so far. For hundreds of years the lady preachers were not allowed to preach as the Mothers at home outshone them. Mother at home taught her daughters to stay home and run the homestead. And back then we didn’t have divorce and birth control as we do today.

Simple Meals

And ya know what? We live in dangerous times. Some of you Mothers who get to stay home don’t know how to cook and bake basic things. You all need to know how to make biscuits and gravy. I mean some of you would starve to death with a bit of meat and flour in front of ya. And ya know I threw out a lot of my biscuits to the birds as they were so hard no one wanted them. But I actually got good at it later on. But practice, Dear Heart, and you will become a good biscuit maker.

Get some self-rising flour. It costs a bit more them regular flour. Put 2 cups of flour in your bowl and add a fourth cup of shortening or lard, whatever. Rub the shortening into the flour with your fingers until the mixture looks like tiny peas. Make sure all the shortening is rubbed into the flour. Then add some milk about 1 cup. And stir this up and make a dough. Then flatten the dough on a floured surface. Don’t roll it with a rolling pin. Just pat it with your hands. It should be about an inch thick. Then cut the dough out with a table glass or the rim of a tin can. Bake in a hot oven for about 15 minutes. Be sure to preheat the oven to 450 degrees. This is a quick bread and needs to be baked quick and hot.

You can even take this dough and roll it out thin and put butter and sugar and cinnamon on it and slice it and bake it like cinnamon rolls. You could put nuts in this or raisins. Once you learn to make a biscuit dough, you can make a lot of things. Dumplings are made like plain biscuits that you can drop into a bubbling stew and they bake under the liquid. But do learn to make homemade noodles and from scratch pies and cakes. No, everything won’t turn out perfect but just keep practicing.

Happy Homemaking.

Love,
Connie

That’s Revival

Dear Mothers,

This morning I was watchin’ TV. And I got in on the end of a message by Bishop Eddie Long. And he was talkin’ about how some folks want to give God their money, thinking that this will pay for their sins. They are in sin and so they give a big amount of money and this soothes their conscience. And when he got ready to say that, my ears just perked up because most TV preachers want money at any cost. They wouldn’t care if it was from a pimp.

Anyway, the Bishop said the alter is a place to burn the flesh. As in the Old Testament they burned the sacrificial animals. And this was a picture of the true Lamb of God in the future — Jesus — as He gave His life for our sins. And the Bishop said, “God wants your life and not your money.” And when he said that, I tell you, the Holy Ghost snapped in me and I shouted, “That’s Revival. That’s Revival!” It was like I saw the first spark of revival in our country. Boy, that took a lot for that preacher to say that. And it hit me like a rock in the chest. I felt like I had seen the birth of revival. PTL.

We live in the worst of times and best of times. And God is preparing many of you on this group to see signs and wonders and to shout the victory in God. Give Him your life and let His Word be your authority. Where sin abounds, grace much more abounds.

Love,
Connie

TV Preachers

Wow, I don’t know what will come out of me this morning as I feel so full of the Holy Spirit. This oughta be good! I guess I will just jump in and hang on.

I wanted to write some about Christian TV. You know I like some of it. But you have to have discernment! One thing the Lord really showed me lately is about this giving to these ministries? These prophets of God can get way off on that. They could preach the gospel right on the internet for almost free. But they beg for money like hound dogs. And they tell the poor schnooks that watch their stuff that if they will give to their ministries that their prayers will be answered. And ya know that rigmarole is all the law. It’s Old Testament law. But the truth of the New Testament is that we give our LIFE to Christ. He doesn’t need our money — He wants our heart and soul. If my husband Jim had just given me just money and never love, I wouldn’t have the testimony that I have. I always wanted Jim’s love and devotion.

And ya know I don’t ask anyone for money and God does take care of me. I wanted a ministry of caring for the children. I could take in more children but that would be too much and I wouldn’t be able to have a homelike atmosphere here. So I wait upon the Lord. And He gives me money. And sometimes I give money away if I see a poor person in front of me that obviously needs something. But I don’t give to a TV ministry. I give my time and my energy to children and to upholding my husband’s honor.

If anyone should be asking for money on TV, it should be to sponsor children in our country. I think it is in France that the government pays women to stay home and have babies. They pay Mothers to have babies. Because after years of abortions, the country doesn’t have enough young men to build an army. I imagine it is like this in most parts of Europe. China won’t hardly allow girls to be born. Our country is young and it takes awhile for us to catch up on sin. But we as a Free Country should take a look see and see what is happening to countries that have been using birth control for many years.

Christian Joy has gone to Ireland many times. And she told me that it’s against the law to get a divorce because they don’t have a welfare program. The parents are ordered always to care for their own. Once you are married, you can’t get a divorce and remarry because that gets the records mixed up and by law there are no stepparents.

Well, anyway! But with these TV preachers! Man, they brag about their new cars and how many they have and new homes. They say God gave it to them? Well, they are heaping guilt and condemnation on all these poor folks. That they don’t have their prayers answered because they didn’t give to their TV ministry. The older Christians see through that mess. But the young new believers don’t. So TV preachers manage to keep his audience poor and needy and controlled by fear of sin and condemnation. And God don’t need your money so that you can hear the gospel. The gospel is free? I mean with the internet, you can preach it for FREE. And Preacher Buster Brown don’t need all of that money. I mean Jesus Christ didn’t have to have a new airplane to preach the gospel and, heck, He barely left town. But God either publishes us as teachers or He don’t. He knows how to broadcast us.

Jesus wants your life which costs you a lot more then your earning power. We don’t have to pay the King so he can pray for us so that we can have blessings from God. Sure, tithe if ya wanna. But not so that you will be blessed. Because you will be more blessed by giving your life to Christ and doing His work out of your love for Him. As stay at home mothers, we can truly give. But TV preachers will make you think you can do more for God by getting a job and giving $$$. This lie is how we now have birth control in the church — and Christian feminism. It’s business as usual $$.

Prophets of God

The Bible sure shows us that prophets in the Bible were not sinless by any means. An anointed person is a sideshow, I think. They have to be sorta interesting or no one would watch ‘em. I mean they have gifts and they are sometimes all over the place with them. The gift is subject to the prophet. They can get way off the mark and yet when they are on the mark, look out!

See, we each can have the Holy Spirit. The Bible says that we need no man to teach us as we have an unction from the Holy Ghost, and we know all things. But this is the deal. We are responsible to know the Lord apart from the church. And when a prophet of God tells us something we should be saying, “Wow, this is what God has been telling me for a long time.” Or if it is strange to you, then don’t listen. A person who is whimsical and creative will create from what is going on in them at the time. This is how a prophet is. If you don’t have some idea of a truth to start with in your own heart, then you won’t be able to discern a true prophet from a false one. Oh yeah, the Word is a guide. But you need the “Alive Word” that you have prayed over in your heart. So that as the days ahead get darker and more error is taught, you will know the truth and who to follow. No, I know we need to be taught. But the true teacher is Jesus Christ. And any prophet you encounter should be adding to the truth you have been taught in your prayer chamber by the true teacher Jesus Christ.

A woman who judges her husband and tries to take spiritual authority over him is just looking for an attack from Satan. The bottom line to all of our understanding as Christian wives and Mothers is wisdom. Wisdom is the foundation and everything else is to bounce off of this. Proverbs 14:1 says EVERY wise woman builds her house and the foolish tear it down with her hands.

Having said all of this — I have really been taught lately by TV preachers. Not that I listen to all the snake oil ads and superstitions they come up with. I know they are trying to get a new car. But mercy! I have to say they are striking a chord in my heart. It’s like those ol’ boys are getting into some real firewater and leavin’ the soda pop for the kids. God told me a lot of things after Jim died and how heaven was right in the midst of me. And this is what a lot of these prophets are saying now. I wouldn’t have believed all of this from these prophets had God not told me before they preached it. My friend Jill is a prophetess and so was Dixie. They ain’t perfect but touched by the Holy Spirit. And when I talked about Jim being with me always, Jill said, “Flesh and blood didn’t tell you that but the Spirit of God.” I know our son John told me, as I told him that I had never grieved for Jim as I knew he had never left me. Johnny said, “Mom, it’s a gift that God has given you.” I knew Jim would never leave me and he never has. His body wore out but his spirit never will. But the preachers aren’t saying talk to the dead. But they are saying that heaven is not up in the sky someplace but is about us.

The Bible says there is no marriage in heaven but we become like the angels. The angels go back and forth easily. The parable of the rich man and Lazarus explains that, once you are in hell, it is a prison that you can’t come out of. But heaven is a place of freedom where you can come and go. Not that all the spirits in heaven come and go. Some would and some would choose not to.

Baby Maya Grace is here — have to go.

Love,
Connie

What Makes ‘em Tick?

This morning I was watching TV and waiting for Olivia J., age 4, to get here. Anyway, I like to watch Gloria Copeland every once in a while. I just watch these lady preachers to try to see what makes ‘em tick. As I watched Gloria, I thought, “Ya know I like her style in a lot of ways.” She kinda has a West Texas kick in the pants way about her. And I mean she does have a message, it seems. But I just laughed out loud at one point and prayed out loud. “Now, Lord, if Gloria would just adjust her motor, she could be so much more powerful and do so much more good than she does now. If she would just exalt the teaching on Keepers at Home and wifely submission, and the virtuous woman, man, she would be a knockout.” I mean she could still say what she says now but she would be aiming it at the woman of obedience, the Homemaker. I know she would be helping her own daughters a lot, and her grandchildren.

I do believe that in about 5 or 6 years, many of these lady preachers will bow their knees to the teachings of keepers at home. I mean if they are to last at all. Homeschooling came out of the grassroots of the radical Christians. It never came out of the church. The church finally got it, though, and thank the Lord. But this teaching on Keepers at Home is a new message. It is God breathed. Oh, I know the old time Mothers believed it, of course. But there is a new awakening of it now.

Feminism has proved itself and any thinking Christian Mother knows it is a farce. This is a farce along with “Give 10 bucks to God and He will give you a hundred bucks.” That has proved itself over the years to be a false teaching. Yes, we give of course! But a housewife gives out of the work of her own hands, not her husband’s hands, his money. I give my writing to the Lord. I give a lot out of my own life as a homemaker. There is profit in all labor. But had the deal worked of 10 bucks to get a hundred, we would all be rich by now. None of us would have to work or do anything but give money out of the money God gave us out of the money we gave Him.

And right now, it seems lady preachers are as common as weeds. And they will have their day, bear fruits of evil, and then be spiritually hung as witches. Just like the public school system has been hung out to dry. And just as abortion has been proved to be murder, as we now can see the baby from all sides through advances in ultrasound. God is patient and waits for evil to have its day and then shows us the truth. If we won’t accept the truth, just ’cause “He said so,” then judgment comes.

And ya know I have decided to really pray for the lady preachers. They could do so much good and our country needs them to do good. They have a lot of faith. If they could just adjust it. Their pride actually keeps them out of the blessings of God. They are so overwhelmed with all the money coming in and all the crowds screaming a worship to the God of Christian feminism. Satan has told them that if they will fall down and worship him that the whole world will be theirs and they did and it has.

But the true woman of God will come out of the secret place in God with a spirit of humility and true worship. You couldn’t give the true woman of God all of the gold in California. That is not her true treasure. In fact, God will test a true woman of God with having everyone run away from her and not like what she says. But will she just go on because she wants to serve God in truth?

Mother Has Left the House

Ya know as we look at our nation, we see child abuse and abortion. We hear of teachers having sex with their students. We hear of incest. Man, I have never been molested, thank the Lord. But some of the ladies in their 30s tell me this is pretty common stuff. Usually it comes to the daughters through Mom’s live-in boyfriend or a stepdad. One lady told me that it was common for the stepdad or the boyfriend to pretend he has two wives and give the teenage daughter an engagement ring. The Mother works every day as the boyfriend don’t wanna. And I could go on and on but won’t ’cause this is making me sick.

We have so much instability in our world. And from what I hear, the USA is one of the worst nations, as far as sin. And God tells me every day that with all of the instability in the world, stick with the marriage covenant. Don’t get off on who should get a divorce and remarry. Just tell everyone to stick with who they are married to. Because we will all get so confused, we will just go crazy. I mean folks are just goin’ nuts living with this one and that one. As they do, their spirits become one with this and that personality as they become one. And eventually they will go crazy. We are meant to have one personality and it is the one God has given us.

Well, anyway, I said all of this to say that if a woman really has a heart for God, she would see the problems before us and want to change them. She would see that what our nation needs is a good picture of the Mother at Home caring for the children. If a woman really loves God, then she will hear the cry of the aborted babies and teach mothers how to be Keepers at Home. She will want to teach wives to stay in the marriage for the children’s sake. She will want to teach young women who have been abandoned by their own mothers to be keepers at home.

We need women in the body of Christ who will tear at the hearts of young Mothers. We need her to be holy and righteous to prick the hearts of wives and mothers whose hearts are worldly and hard as stones. So many of you dear wives and mothers are learning to be Titus 2 Mothers as you don’t give up on your own marriages. You have been to hell and back, I know. But Christ was chosen to go to the cross as He had suffered in every way as we have. You can’t speak to crowds of hurting women unless you have been there and done that. But many of you are called as trail blazers to settle a wild country that is almost hopeless.

The wisdom of God must be taught and it comes from the inner court. From the ground of the heart of Mother, who has allowed herself to be broken ground for His sake. As her tears spill upon this barren land, the anointing comes as no other way. When you are persecuted for righteousness sake but you go on anyway, you are beating the devil to death. The sword hangs in your heart and you feel the cold steel of it. And yet you go on. This is when the blood of the martyrs is spilled. That blood mixed with tears is precious to Jesus. It moves heaven and earth. Your life is precious to Him. Don’t give up or count yourself out.

What the world calls foolishness moves the heart of God. We press on the Word of God and prayer until we knock the hell out. It’s just like if a woman starts watching soapies and keeps goin’ with it. And then she decides to have an affair and what have ya? She is pressing on evil and she will reap a reward of evil and death. But if we as Sisters of a New Revolution keep pressing on the Word of God and prayer, we will see the fruit of righteousness come forth. As we don’t give up or become weary in well doing, we will reap if we faint not. Sure, we suffer but we don’t give up. We put the cross before us and the world behind us. We are not afraid of what evil will do to us.

We won’t see a victory we haven’t fought for. And the main fight is the fight to get His anointing. He looses heaven for us.

My Darling Husband

Oh, Papa fought his way back to this house many times. He was rebellious and wrong to leave us. And once he thought it over as he hitchhiked out of town, he eventually came back. We have both fought for our family. I will never know how much he fought for us.

I was sort of a thorn in Jim’s side, I think. Ya know he used to work in restaurants. I would look at some of those waitresses and envy them as a young wife and mother. They would stand there chewin’ gum and smokin’ cigs, tryin’ to look busy. I longed to be more “everyday” as they were. I often thought that Jim would have loved me more had I been more run of the mill. I do think at times the more average wife is a better wife. She is easier to get along with, sort of. I mean if she has a good husband to start with ya know? I mean I think sometimes she makes a better help mete than the really spiritual wife as I was. I would have my head in the clouds with Jesus a lot. Well, it was just what made me tick.

I mean Jim would come home from work to about anything and I would be as calm as a cucumber. I would be real sick and not want to go to a doctor. Well, I knew Jim didn’t have health insurance. I probably helped him to have his heart attack as he worried so much about me. Well, Mary and Brandon did, too. But I probably had a share in that. Sorry to say! But I know Papa loved me, anyway. He has forgiven me now if I did make him crazy. I was always paid up in mercy and that was my insurance. And I knew that Jim would always forgive me as I had always forgiven him. What comes around goes around. Papa and me weren’t anything special to be married for almost 40 years. We were just two good forgivers. Be always quick to forgive your husband, as you never know when you as his wife will goof up. I almost burned the house down twice. Jim never condemned me once. Not ever! And the fire burned up all of his clothes and his bed. Well, our bed. Now there is a prince of a guy, huh?

The worst thing I did was tell him he wasn’t having a heart attack when he was and he died. But ya know Papa was a good man and I know even in heaven, he loves me and has forgiven me. Jim and I had a trust in each other and a peace between us. I have not grieved for Jim. I really haven’t. He told me he was dying and he prepared to die. I miss him, yes, I do. But I know where he is and that he loves us and wants his family to go on.

In my home is so much rest and peace. This was the house that Papa and me built spiritually. He will always be here with me. The Bible says that there is no marriage in heaven but we become as the angels. I feel Papa’s spirit in this house as I feel the angels. I never doubt that he is right here with me still. I am comforted by him as I always have been. I say all of this to encourage Sarah and Jen on our group who are young widows with children.

I feel my husband was as important as any great man and I plan to make my home a precious memorial to him. I try to do right and live an honest life before our kids in order to bring honor to Jim. I never want him to be forgotten or our Love Story not to be told. I loved Jim with a love everlasting. He fought for me and I fought for him. I know I was never perfect and he knew that about himself. But if we did anything right? We were right in the fact that we never gave up on each other or any of our kids. No matter what our 6 kids have done, we have walked with them through the valley of the shadows of death. Jim stuck up for Johnny, no matter what, and now I stand for Mary on earth and Jim stands for her in heaven. We are shaking heaven and earth to see her come to Christ. She is our youngest daughter, age 21.

Yes, I know I am free to remarry. But I don’t want to. Jim was my husband. The only love of my life. And I am content to just live here in the house he gave me. I want to continue to write and honor and reverence my husband’s memory.

Daughters of Zion

Dear Mothers,

Well, I have baby Olivia Rose (5 weeks) this morning. She is sleeping so I will have some time to write.

Mercy! I was watching Joyce M this morning and man alive. She is just out and out putting down the submissive wife. She says that a preacher tried to tell her that her husband should preach and she should be quiet at home. So her husband tried to preach and he didn’t know how. So she preached and won many to the Lord. And she told how the crowds followed her. None of what she said was backed up by scripture. She is getting her calling from looking at her experiences.

Ya know my daughter Christian Joy told me once over the phone — as she calls me often — she told me years ago, “Mom, anyone can get an audience. There are so many crazy people out there.” She told me that on the internet, you can sell about anything and someone will buy it. I have always remembered that. Just because a lot of people follow you, it don’t mean you have the truth. In fact, if crowds of women follow you in this sin sick world, it probably means you don’t have the truth. But it just galls me that so many women are following Joyce. And now so many women preachers are coming forth.

It bothers me that on Christian TV, there is no representation of the women of strength and dignity. I wish I could be on Joyce’s show and, man alive, I would tell it all. Let me tell ya. What bothers me a lot is the old church women on TV who are screaming at the young women to not live in an abusive marriage. It’s so sick. You get out of abuse by going against God’s word? The abuse starts in your own heart and must end there. You need to be built up in God. Getting a divorce isn’t going to change you inside. You will bring your tattered and torn personality into the next marriage, too.

Then Joyce has this woman on there who had a testimony of living in abuse and how she got out and happily married someone else. Oh, God help us. But when that woman was being abused, a Titus 2 Mother should have come to her from the church and showed her how not to be abused. Women who are so torn down are torn down to start with … without an abusive husband. And there are men this way, too. Some men are just battered by their wives but won’t say anything, as they don’t want to lose the home or children.

Letting yourself be abused is self destruction and it’s no one’s fault but yours. I feel like a fart in a storm again trying to write this stuff. Abused children are different as they don’t know how to get out of the situation — because they are children? But what are some of these women going to do when they reach heaven? Blame their lives on their husband? And then they think they will be excused because they didn’t trust in God?

Especially Christian women need to learn to love an abusive man. A Christian is called to love more, not less. We are to love our enemies and bless those who curse us. Vengeance is mine saith the Lord I will repay. God is to fight our battles for us. And most women in this age are abusing their husbands. The wife is to submit, but a man should not submit to an abusive wife. But when dealing with an abusive husband, you should know right from wrong and not submit to evil. You must be as Esther was before the King. You can pacify your husband but you have your own agenda with God in your heart. No one owns your mind except for God. These Christian women that have to be LARGE AND IN CHARGE don’t have the guts Esther had. They win a few battles but always lose the war.

“Oh, Father God, encourage and raise up true women of God in this hour as lights in this present darkness.” So many watching Christian TV are being led to Satan’s pit. Arise, oh daughters of Zion. Come forth, dear Daughters of a New Revolution!

Ya know no one in their right mind would ever publish this stuff I write about wife abuse. So I am glad I have my own group. I guess I publish it myself.

But ya know Lady preacher takes out the cross of Christ. She speaks of Christ at the cross. But no one ever speaks about the death of self. About crucifying the flesh as the Bible speaks of. Or taking up our cross daily and following Him. The death to self and the exaltation of Christ is the teachings in the Bible. No, what we have in the modern church is death to Christ and exaltation of self. Joyce teaches about the confident women. And God says our confidence comes as we abide in Him and crucify the flesh. We are not to exalt ourselves but we are to exalt Christ.

Many are scared spitless in this present day. With wars and rumors of wars, we are much afraid at times. And so people try to get a false sense of security by acting tough and trying to be confident. Well, Jesus is the conquering hero, not us. Let me tell ya somethin’, Darlin’, we are in a mess in our country. I don’t trust either party. I live daily with Jesus. Yes I get afraid. But each new day, I give my fears to Jesus and I wait upon Him.

We want quick fixes. If we do this and that, then we will be OK. We feel confident as someone gives us a formula for success. But it is not us who will take ourselves through but only Jesus. 1 Peter 2 and 3 says in the King James version that Jesus is the example to the abused wife.

Love,
Connie

Teach Your Daughters to Wail

Dear Mothers,

This morning as I prayed, I cried and the wounds of hurt for Mary were again broken open and the blood of my broken heart seeped out as tears in my eyes and wailing unto the Lord. And the Holy Ghost came upon me and the Lord spoke in anger at the devil and Jesus said to me, “Connie, every prayer you have prayed and every tear you have cried is not forgotten. When your harvest comes it will be earth changing.” The Lord gave me a picture of Mary whole and complete and mighty for the Lord. And as I prayed, I heaved crying words out of my belly to God. He said, “Connie, if you didn’t weep like this for Mary, you would be no good to me. I call the wailing Mothers for my kingdom.”

And God reminded me of Ezekiel 8 and 9 where the Lord called the writer to mark the people of God who sighed and wept for the sins of His people. Some say it was a mark of the cross put upon the Believers who had God’s heart. But it was a mark of some kind put upon those who weep with God for the sins of the people. And the writer had an ink horn at his reins. Our reins is our conscience, or our inner court. But when God judged Jerusalem, He saved the ones who were heartbroken for the sins of the people of God. And God started with the church and had the deacons killed first.

We hear that when Judgment comes, we who are Christians will be saved. But, no, those who do not weep and wail in our country do not have the heart of God. This does not mean that we go around sad all the time. But when the spirit of mourning comes upon us for a family member or the sins of our people, we should go ahead and get before God and cry out to Him until the mourning has lifted. It is a call to prayer. Just pray and then go on. But the true People of God will be in much prayer and fasting.

Our Joy comes daily as we pray and seek God and feel a release in our Spirit. Each prayer and groaning in the Spirit is a labor pain. After each pain, there will be a time of joy and resting. We will rest and cook and sew and be happy. We will put up food for the winter. But when we hear Him in our garden, calling us as His handmaidens to pray, we should drop our buckets of vegetables and run unto the Holy Secret Place to hear His voice and pray. He may call us several times a day. Or He may call us in the night.

We must be instant to hear His voice and run to Him, our true Husband, to weep before Him and to wail for People of God who have no mark of the cross upon their foreheads. They have no heart for the marriage covenant. God is a covenant God. You who pray against your husbands outside the marriage covenant will never see answered prayers. You must obey God and honor your husbands and submit to them as unto the Lord. Jeremiah 9:20 says Teach your daughters to wail. We are in the days as of Noah. So many then were so calloused and never paid any mind to the thought that judgment was coming.

I watched Joyce M this morning. I am always tryin’ to figure her out. This morning she said that she knew she must have a gift or an anointing. Why? Because everyone obviously loved her and she made a lot of money. Well, yes, she has me there. Everyone seems to love her and she sells a lot of books. But the big and obvious problem for Joyce is that she is running cross ways to the Word of God. The Bible tells her to sit down and be quiet in the temple of God. And that if she is going to teach anything, it should be to teach mothers to be keepers at home. But ya know the women of God don’t want to put up with children or do the dishes. So Joyce leads her merry band of women along.

We live in such an age of deception. Oh, can you all hear me when I say this? While the Christian Mother is out having a hay day, patting each other on the back, who is minding the children? I see women chasing signs and wonders and leaving their nonspiritual husbands at home. That’s because he is too smart to go with ya. Oh, I could say a lot here but I won’t.

In the last days, the Bible says, seven women will want to be married to one man if they can just have his name. And it’s for protection. As women go on with their feminism, they are becoming reduced to sex objects. God knows they can’t keep house! And men don’t need them as they are taught that wifey ain’t good for nothin’ except sex. So, hey, now we have men who are trying to make sex slaves of women. These women won’t submit to God and to a good husband. They won’t do it God’s way and so God turns them over to their own lusts. And you know it won’t be long in our country before the men start treating the women as they do in the Middle East. And women will need the protection of one man and, if she marries him, she will have more rights.

You talk about abused women? The feminists in our country are the most abused women in the world and are out there in full force trying to teach all the young women how to be abused. A woman of God is not as submissive as these women. HELLO? Catch that last sentence? It’s not a mistake. I said the feminist is more submissive than the women of God. Because a woman of God will ONLY submit to her husband as unto the Lord. The Christian Feminist will submit to Pastor over husband any day of the dang week. She will submit to an ungodly boss and build his ungodly kingdom over her husband’s Christian household. The Christian Feminist will submit to other women in the church and what they think over the top of husband’s opinion. They say they are putting God first when they won’t submit to their husbands but to the preacher? No, they are simply putting preacher first over husband and over God. They not only do that as Christian women in the church but they teach by example the young women to do this, too.

Because the wise woman of Titus 2 won’t stand up and teach keepers at home, then the counterfeit comes in. It’s hard to be a Titus 2 Mother. It means you had to be faithful in your home with your own children and husband. And women ain’t bein’ faithful. And they aren’t only hurting their own families, they are hurting 60 or 70 other young Mothers who are watching them. These ungodly Christian Feminists are evangelizing the world with an unholy gospel. They are multiplying and depleting the earth instead of replenishing it with Godly boys and girls.

Oh, arise, oh, Daughters of Zion, and take back your home lands. Build back up your walls and fight with a weapon of homemaking in one hand and in the other hand a weapon of spiritual warfare. Get a whole lot of shakin’ goin on. Shake yourselves loose of feminism and rebellion and take on your aprons and rolling pins. Make a home, dear daughters of God. Get out in that kitchen and shake some pots and pans and make a meal. And when He calls you away to wail in your temple, be instant to obey Him.

Daughters of a New Revolution

Mercy! I feel such an anointing on this teaching that I don’t know if I even have enough energy to keep up with it. I feel like a 25-year-old woman in an old body. I feel like I am teaching about the vision of the dry bones of God’s people — I think it’s in Ezekiel — how God called the prophet to call the dry bones forth to dance? I want to speak this anointing into all who read this.

Come forth, oh, dear Daughters of a New Revolution. If we have to go out as martyrs, let’s go clad in aprons, and at least pregnant. But before we go, let’s leave a testimony that we were good and faithful Mothers of homemaking. Mz Violet is such a godsend to encourage me in my homemaking. Go, Mz Violet — keep feeding it to us. I am a bit slow on the draw lately.

But let’s get that lantern or candle lit on our dining table. This is to signify to us that Jesus is the light of our world. I try to keep my lantern lit and oil in it to be a symbol that I am ready for my groom Jesus Christ to come. The oil is the symbol of the Holy Spirit. And then I lay a Bible beside it, open to a scripture for the day. And then the rest of my homemaking runs around all of this.

But, oh, you would have loved to hear Dixie teach on this even the week before she died. “Connie, the weapons of your warfare are your cooking tools.” Dixie said this with cancer and her husband had married someone else. She taught this until she entered heaven. I hear her heart as I stand here writing. “Connie, stand up and be strong — you can do this. Don’t be afraid.”

Love,
Connie

Deliverance

Today I am answering Alaine’s email response. Alaine is a young wife and mom of four children. She has been delivered of feminism lately and from the spirit of Lady Preacher. She has given her OK for me to share her life a bit. And, Alaine, maybe you could write a testimony that we could send to the letters group? Anyway, I want to share her life as I think, to some degree, all of us women fight the spirit of Jezebel. We are not really fighting women in the flesh but we are fighting demons of witchcraft in the spirit realm. Everything starts out in the Spirit first.

Satan has always been after the godly seed. Satan comes after the Marys, the ones who carry seeds of Christ. In the Bible, in practically every book, the devil is trying to kill the believer and their seeds. We as godly mothers evangelize through spiritual seeds and through our bodies of flesh. So, of course, we know that God doesn’t want any true Godly mother to be on any form of birth control. The devil’s crowd don’t care how many seeds they plant. But it is so called “common sense” for the Christian mother to use birth control. Where would we be if Mary, Jesus’ mother, used birth control? Or Elisabeth or any of the great mothers in the Word of God? Satan wants us Christian mothers to think we have no place in God until we tie our tubes and begin to act like Matthew, Mark, Luke and John. As if we have no place of power in our role as Marys.

Mary is our example. Mary didn’t care what anyone thought of her. She was a woman of prayer and knew that the Son of God would be born soon and to a virgin. And when the angel spoke to Mary she was ready to believe God for a miracle. She had confidence in God and confidence in herself as His child. She didn’t go back to church and have a deacons meeting to see what they thought about it. She just waited on the Lord and waited for her husband (to be) Joseph to have the dream from the Lord. Then, long story short, they ran outta town. Mary was a revolutionist — she was a very free thinker. She knew how to submit to her Joseph but no one owned her mind but God. She was a Joan of Arc on a mission.

I wish I had enough faith to believe for a supernatural birth as she did. She believed it when the Lord overshadowed her, and she conceived a supernatural seed from God. That’s beyond me! But I do believe that many of you will live to see the day that many women of God will conceive a baby supernaturally. This should be normal in the body of Christ. Sarah conceived supernaturally and so did Elisabeth and others in the Word. When Naomi’s daughters-in-law wanted to go with her? Naomi said that she had no more sons to give them. Naomi didn’t say she was too old to conceive a seed and bear a son … because Sarah was her mother of faith. But Naomi said she couldn’t bear anymore children as she had no husband. I think it was a normal thing in Bible times for women of God to bear children up to 60 years old. Because of the scriptures about the widows marrying again and bearing children if they are under 60.

See, our college of the Spirit is taught to us through childbearing. We are saved from the deceptions of this world through childbearing. We learn the gifts of the Spirit and the fruits of the Spirit through our place as Keepers at Home. And God knows (and I hope you all know) that I have learned everything I write THE HARD WAY! Well, I know you all know I didn’t learn it at church.

I understood the Covenant of Marriage. And I let this cover me and keep me in His will. I let this marriage promise lock me in a prison the first years of my marriage. But then later, as I was faithful, my marriage covenant took me to a joyful place where I was set on a pedestal by my dear husband. But in the prison, I learned how to be set free to enter the palace and to be a queen.

It is God who exalts us or publishes us.

Lady Preachers

And ya know, Alaine, I knew I had such a call on my life from God when I was a young mom. Out in the garden, I would preach to the trees. It would just come up out of me — then I would rebuke it in Jesus name. And I would tell Christians about it. That I rebuked the spirit of preaching in me. And they thought I was quenching the Holy Spirit wihin me. My own mentors would tell me that I was a lady preacher and there was nothing I could do about it. Many thought I would be free now to become a lady preacher since Jim died. No. Heck no. If God had wanted me to be a lady preacher, I would have been one, with or without Jim. But I could see early on that I could do a lot more damage to the devil by being a Titus 2 Mother.

The plan of Satan is to discourage, and to cause fear, to the Mother in her Home. Because Satan knows that God is raising up an army of children right now that will be mighty warriors for Him. I mean, we are in an all out war in our country. The heavenlies are ablaze right now with spiritual activity. It suffers violence and the violent take it by force. There is a part in the Bible where it tells the writer to mark the people who are not grieved and do not sigh while the temple is being torn down. And the ones who did not grieve and sigh were killed.

See, these lady preachers are a curse to the church and to God’s people. It’s not enough that the Mothers have left the home and the child predators have taken over. Now the Mother has left the body of Christ.

The Spirit of Christ cries with deep intercessions for the Mothers to come back home. He cries for them to quit killing their babies through abortion. How many John the Baptists are dead at the dump? Put there by Christian Mothers? The Holy Spirit bays and vomits grief for these children that are His. He knew them in their Mothers’ wombs. He knew them. He talked to them. He made them. They were not just flesh but they were His own. How can our hearts as Mothers not do something about this? Well, it’s because our hearts have become hardened.

Lady Preacher ain’t worried about abortion or your marriage covenant. Lady Preacher is up there being seen and flaunting her new clothes. I often think, had these women been wise, what wonderful Titus 2 mothers they would be. But, see, the hidden woman that God uses for His glory is a woman of dignity and honor. She doesn’t have to be seen. She is like Mary. She knows the times and the seasons of the earth. She knows the heart of God. She is the same on stage or alone in her house. Because Jesus is her confidence and not the applause of man.

Ya know, a lot of times, I write on here and I think it was good. And no one comments on it and I feel so lonely, needing a shoulder to lean on or to communicate with. But I know the Lord tests me. “Connie, will you write alone in your house with no one caring one way or the other. Or do you need to be petted all the time to write?” God don’t need me if all I do is write for applause. He has enough of those women. And ya know, Alaine, I really tested God on this writing I do. For the first four years, I wrote on the e-machine and never paid my internet bill. Finally, when Jim saw that this writing was from God, he started paying it. Someone kept paying for the bill. I called the company and told them it was a mistake but they wouldn’t listen to me. They would say, “Who is this?” I would say, “Connie.” And they would say, “Connie is paying the bill.” I really believe it was a mix up in their billing but they never figured it out. I tried to tell ‘em. And I gave up this writing a half a hundred times. I wanted to take this e-machine and throw it out the window. I had finally learned how to be God’s hidden woman and what did God do? He calls me to write on the internet. That nearly killed me. Talk about crying. I cried my heart out but wanted to be in His will.

Prison to Palace

But ya know, Alaine, if Sharon White didn’t write my books for me I wouldn’t ever get one published. My goal in life isn’t to make some money. The push and shove of my life is to write the truth out for the wife and mother at home. If this writing makes me popular, or whatever, then fine. But it is more likely it will get me killed. But my heart wants to write out the truth.

I suffered like a dog as a young wife and mother. I had the Roman soldiers constantly about me, slashing my heart with a sword. One time an aunt of mine took me out for lunch. I was pregnant with David, my miracle child. She said to me, as I sat quietly waiting to be served, “Look a the shape you are in — it is a disgrace.” I was so hurt and I never forgot it. I had to hold back hot tears through the whole meal. And every time I got pregnant, the comments were so cruel from the older women around me. When I brought John home from the hospital, my aunt met me at the door with “What are you gonna do with it?” I had barley any pictures of Johnny. I was so poor and Jim was in prison. The neighbors hated me because Jim was always in the newspaper. They were afraid of me and tried to get me out of the neighborhood. The city sued us because our sidewalk wasn’t shoveled and a lady barely sprained her ankle. The fight went on for five years.

I had so little encouragement. At night, I slept with my Bible and with study books all around in my blankets. I put the Word of God upon my wall and woke up to it each morning. I was too grieved to eat much and weighed from 95 to 100 pounds and was 5 foot 8 inches tall. This was my Bible college days and this is how I learned what I write. I learned that God can bring you through anything as long as your confidence is not in the arm of flesh but in the heart of Jesus. I literally climbed out of my prison one Bible verse at a time and landed in the Lord’s palace. I learned to be the virtuous woman, the woman of power. I hung onto the hem of His garment and drew virtue out of Him.

What these lady preachers preach is pure poison. They have some truth and tell you how to get out of the mundane problems of the world. But a woman’s true place in the home where she learns the deeper truths will never be told to you by Lady Preacher. She knows not the deep things of God. She lives on the crust of the land. But the deep delivering power of God is taught by the experiences of the home. And only as the marriage covenant is not broken.

Jesus went willingly to the cross to die. And some of us as wives must take a key and lock our own selves away in a prison to learn of God. Some of you feel like you are already in a prison. Don’t fight this prison but wait upon God as Joseph did. If you will die with Jesus, you will also reign with Him. There is much to learn in the furnace of affliction. And even more to learn as VICTORY IN JESUS COMES.

God gave me more then double happy days for all that I suffered. He is true to His word. But, Alaine, I think it’s all a choice in where ya want to end up in God. Will we be like Mary and be poor revolutionist — or will we be like Joyce M who gets her glory here on earth?

I suffered enough, I guess, that money don’t mean much to me anymore. I ache so much in my soul for the life of the Christian Mother in her Home. I guess I just can’t stand to think that anyone would have to go through what I went through with no truth to uphold them. But you stand Lady Preacher up against the true virtuous woman and the virtuous woman’s power is so much greater. As the days come to a close, the lady preacher knows her day is short. Now she is attacking openly the virtuous woman from the pulpit. It’s sad, for sure.

Feminism is an unholy fire and only the truth will protect us. We must rebuke these spirits from our homes by the blood of the Lamb and the word of our testimonies. And most important is that we don’t love our own lives unto death.

Keepers At Home

Dear Mothers,

I was sorta busy yesterday so didn’t get to read all of the emails. And this morning I have to leave at about 8:15. So I will only be able to write a bit. But was it you, Alaine, yesterday that was saying that all women are not called to be Keepers at Home? I wanted to comment on this for a minute. The Bible says this in Proverbs 14:1 — Every wise woman builds her house and the foolish woman tears it down with her hands. So this verse speaks of Every wise woman. This is speaking to a woman with a home or a wife and mother. A single woman has a choice to marry or not. But she, too, should have a ministry of home. Such as helping another mother with her children or housekeeping.

There are no lady preachers in the Bible who take authority in the church over men as Joyce Myers does. Jezebel did this and she was it. Deborah tried to get Barak to take authority himself. But Deborah was certainly the exception and not the rule in the Bible. She was called “Mother in Israel”. And this is a calling like the Titus 2 Mother has. I know I minister to some of the husbands on this group. I don’t write for them and never would take any authority over any man. But I know many of the husbands read my writings. But there are no lady preachers in the Word of God. Mothers find their place in the body of Christ through their ministry as keeper at home.

Alaine, you remind me of myself when I was young. I had to know the truth on so many things concerning wifely submission and Motherhood. God is going to use you as the Titus 2 Mother. I know you probably came to this group to get into some good discussions and some good thought provoking debates. But the ladies aren’t mavericks on here. I am, for sure, but I have had the soup kicked out of me lately and haven’t gotten back up yet. But I think I am arising slowly. Annie is still under the bed, I guess. But I hear your spirit, Alaine.

Many of the ladies on here are deep in the Lord but are under the gun. They don’t comment a lot. They are drive by shooters. What they say is powerful but in 10 words or less. And many don’t want to upset anyone so they seethe quietly. As you can tell, I would say about anything and duck and run like hell. I am used to it, unfortunately. You know, I love Mz Violet who is normal. But, Alaine, just give me some time here. I hope to get into some better writing.

The feminist Christians are your problem. They are worse them the regular worldly feminists because they have the power of religion behind them. They are DANGEROUS. And they deceive many. They live on the blood of the Mothers who are really powerful like Mary the Mother of Jesus. Mary was a truly powerful woman of God. Think of her faith and how brave she was to endure and to keep Jesus hidden as a child.

See, like you, Alaine, I had to rebuke the spirit of preaching in me, too, and fight it down until it had no voice in me. I have had many women try to get me to be a lady preacher. This world don’t have enough money in it to make me be a lady preacher. It is not the call of the hour — it has no power in it. The call of the hour is to the Titus 2 Mother who will take her place in the shadows for the good of her people. She loves God and hears the call of the mothers who are truly walking with Him by being a keeper at home. Like you, Alaine, I have stood up and preached before. I could do that again. And probably make some money at it. But I want to stand for truth.

This sorry world has enough trash and deception going on. Who would want to waste their time being a lady preacher? Ya can’t take that money with ya. No, if I can’t stand for truth, I would just as soon die.

Alaine, if it’s OK, we will send this letter to the letters group, too. I think many of the ladies are like you and need this writing. But I can see your frustrations mounting and we are usually a bit more Kick Butt. Sorry!

Hmmm, A Drivers License

Mercy, I wish I had all morning to write on feminism and lady preachers. Nothing makes my blood boil like Christian Feminism in the church. Like an old dog, I could chew that bone happily all day and the next. Just relaxing on the email and gnawing that gristle sounds like pure joy to me. But, alas, I must be gone today. So I have to go take my bath. I have to take a written drivers test. Yes, Miss Connie is going to get a valid Iowa Drivers license.

Aunt Toot said to Char, the other night when she was here, “Well, Connie knows a lot about driving so she won’t have too much trouble with the test.” That’s a loaded answer.

Well, I better get about my business.

Love,
Connie

A Dopey Chick

Dear Mothers,

This morning I was back at it, watchin’ Christian TV. Well, I sorta like that show Ever Increasing Faith. But with any TV evangelism, ya gotta watch it. So at the beginning of the show, they had this dopey chick on there. And in a nutshell, this is what she said. Her church where her husband was a deacon believed in wifely submission. And this chicken’s girlfriend told her she didn’t have to submit to her husband. So she decided to go pray with Pastor Price and he got her straightened out. And she told her husband that they needed to go to Pastor Price’s church so they did. And she got her prayers answered because she put Jesus first.

Ya know, it’s not enough that these churches don’t teach about the order of the home. But now they are out there just takin’ potshots at us who do teach it. And what good is going to come of it? The homes are already in a mess. Mother leaving the home has brought on the encouragement of abortion and child neglect and you name it. Why is the church standing against the stability of the home? Anyone knows that if you get a wife in the home who is dictating spiritually, we have witchcraft going on. Rebellion is as witchcraft. The rebellious wife produces rebellious children. And these kind of mothers in the home then produce homosexual sons and daughters. Well, often it is just plain neglect that produces homosexual children. Again you gotta wonder if all some of the shepherds have in mind is to build their church and forget the needs of the sheep.

So this empty headed chick who got on TV and said her husband was not spiritual enough, in the end, submitted to a man, anyway, and it was Pastor Price. Had she thought her husband didn’t know as much as Pastor Price, she could have still watched Price on TV and gone to her husband’s church. She could have prayed for her husband to see the light. But, no, she probably told him she was gonna divorce him if he didn’t do what Pastor Price said. Because, by golly, she put Jesus first. ????? Help me, sweet Jesus! A lot of men will go along with their wives in order to keep peace in the home. But all this wife has done is maneuvered her husband’s will. She has made his flesh obey her. The true Christian wife who is maybe married to a man who is a believer, but not that steady yet, should encourage him in his God given authority. The true wife is after her husband’s heart to give to Jesus. She doesn’t care about herself or her own needs. Her goal is that her husband be saved, and that he be a son of the living God. She can get spiritually fed any place she needs to.

No husband can get into your mind. You are “God’s daughter.” But this woman should have reverenced her husband enough to stay in the church they were in and let her husband decide if they should leave. But to get on Pastor Price’s TV show and tell about how her girlfriend helped her to see the error of her ways was very disrespectful towards the priest of their home. I wonder what her children thought?

We in Christendom are very close to losing the truth on this about the order of the home. That woman getting on TV with that lie spoke to many women, not to mention men, and is going a long way in breaking down the Christian homes. And every time they say that stuff, they are pounding another nail in the coffin of the Christian home.

See, Joyce is loud and boisterous, flaunting her new outfits and earrings on TV. Her feet abide not in her home. We in Christendom haven’t seen a lady in so long, we have forgotten what one looks like. We have forgotten the scriptures that say that a woman is to learn in silence and submission to her husband. Or that she is to be chaste and discreet and a keeper at home. And just about everyone of these women preachers have a testimony of sexual abuse as children. They have never seen a virtuous woman before and they are preaching out from who they are.

Dopey Chick’s Husband

And, ya know, Dopey Chick’s husband probably thought, “Mercy! I can’t fight City Hall (or Pastor Price’s Ministry), so I guess I should be a good boy and go along with my wife.” Because, seriously, it is the age of the woman being in control. And women’s rights are a big deal right now. And most men know what side their bread is buttered on. And it’s either her way or the highway. Any man who does stand up for being a man is in real danger.

When I babysat that precious baby boy right after Jim died? Well, both parents were good and loved their little son. Well, the baby’s dad pushed the mother one day and she was outta there. The dad probably never saw his baby son again. I think of him often and that his heart must be broken. Now, had HE kidnapped the baby from HER, then they would have caught that guy and skinned him alive.

Women are in control in our country. And while her husband may be lookin’ fine and minding his wife as she dictates to him, he is rebelling in other ways. And I don’t need to count the ways he will rebel. If he looks good at church and stands up and sits down as he should, and as the pastor and his wife has ordered, then wife thinks all is well. And that’s all she cares about, anyway. But, Lady, you will never reach a man’s heart if you are just worried about what the world has to say about him.

The true woman will submit to her husband, and will win him to Christ through her behavior. You can’t win a man to Christ by laying down a set of rules. You win him through your work as keepers at home. As you care for the children. As you keep the home clean and the meals on the table. You must win his heart for Christ. Your husband has to fall in love with you before he will fall in love with your God.

Papa used to tell me, “Well, Connie, you are gifted.” I would say, “Oh, Honey, I am not.” But, ya know, the more the days go on that Papa is in heaven, I see more then ever that it was Papa who was gifted. Mary and I both say that we don’t have to miss Papa as he is always with us.

And, ya know, through all of these laws we are passing against the rights of men, we are taking all of the romance out of our marriages. Papa and me were passionate in every area. When we first got married, I would call him a name and go to run out the door and he would grab me and hold me down and threaten me. One time, as I prayed that I would put Jesus first and not my husband, he nearly killed me. He misunderstood that, as most men would. NOOOOO it wasn’t right. And NOOOO I am not sayin’ it was. It was a mistake on his part and he quit all of that, for sure, or I would be dead by now. But you get passionate people and they ain’t just passionate in the bedroom. And it is just life.

No, if a man makes a habit of beating his wife, this is very dangerous and has to stop.I mean, call the police if Husband is way out there. You don’t want to die, as who would take care of the innocent children? But, on the other hand, we can’t police our husbands. Men, every now and again, will act up (it’s the nature of the beast) and, no, you aren’t honor bound to divorce them.

A few days ago, as I drove into the hospital parking lot, I had the windows down — no air conditioning. And Papa always drove with the window down, even in the winter sometimes. Of course, he was smokin’ and blowing the smoke out the window. So I learned to drive from him. Anyway, as I drove in, I had the radio up full blast and the Righteous Brothers were singing,

“You’ve lost that lovin’ feelin’
Woah, that lovin’ feelin’”

It starts out …

“You never close your eyes anymore
When I kiss your lips”

Well, anyway, I was prayin’ and I said, “Yes, Lord, that is what is missing in Christendom and the world. That lovin’ feelin’. That passion that comes from a submissive wife and a man who will support the family emotionally and spiritually. A real spiritual home is a very romantic home and has a sexual climate.

Conclusion

Well, I should get goin’. I need to get to the hospital to see Mary.

One DVD movie Mary and I watched yesterday at the hospital was Walk the Line. Johnny Cash got really crazy with his women. I told Mary, as I laughed, “Who is that like?” Mary says, “Brandon.” I said, “Well, Mary, look at Johnny Cash — the Lord healed him, didn’t he? And God healed your Dad, didn’t He?”

Mary is still wanting this old guy, age 40. I mean, this old guy is sorta fat. But, ya know, what can I say? I mean, things ain’t right. But God is makin’ it right.

Mary called this morning and said, “Mom, I have bad news. They found septic in my blood.” That leaves her in the hospital for about (I hope) 10 or so more days. She sure could have died in that jail. Thank God the Lord took her out. So my adventures continue.

In closing, I want to say to you who are keepers at home. Don’t lose that lovin’ feelin’ for your husband. Let him be a man. Close your eyes when he kisses your lips.

“And, Papa, I am doin’ the best I can with Mary. I can’t touch her without rubber gloves. But, oh, I love her so much and I love you, Papa.”

Love,
Connie
