  1. "Come to me, all who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you, and learn from me, for I am gentle and lowly in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light". For a woman to assume the role of pastor is to rebel against God's command, and reject His yoke and His learning. When we step outside God's will, part of us becomes darkness, and we open ourselves up to even more darkness.

  4. I was dealing with debilitating anxiety for 3 months straight before I felt the Spirit of God come like a wind and I literally felt a poisonous seed break off my heart and for the first time in 3 months I was filled with peace. One verse that helped me was Psalm 119:41-42 which says 'May your unfailing love come to me, O Lord, your salvation according to your promise; then I will answer the one who taunts me, for I trust in your word.' Another thing to remember is that the truth is what will set you free. Read the Word and ask God to highlight verses so that you can use the sword of the Spirit well. I recommend reading Romans and all of Psalms. Lastly, pray to God with everything you have and your whole heart in desperate anguish… he will deliver you in his perfect timing… and yes he is still with you my friend.

  7. Heavenly Father, who provides my needs according to YOUR riches in glory, I come to YOU as I am struggling financially. I am grateful that I am able to take care of the other things I need to pay for. Unfortunately, there's still so much that needs to be taken care of. The rent is due. There's not enough food to last the rest of the month. Pappa's meds is only enough for today. YOU know I always do my best and work my hardest, but nothing seems to be enough. I need YOU to help me come out of this situation, GOD. I have more burdens to carry but I believe it would be a bit easier if my financial burden be met. 🙏 GOD, may YOU touch the heart of someone whom YOU have blessed so much in the financial aspect. Help me knock on their hearts, GOD. 🙏🙏🙏 Send angels my way. Open doors of opportunities. Put YOUR miraculous hands over our lives, GOD. 🙏 I need YOU.

  8. Praise the lord for her testimony may her deliverance deliver others as well for God say they will overcome the enemy by the blood of the lamb and the words of their testimony there is power in our testimony Amen

  9. Morgan, I went through something similar – three months of feeling oppressed following my dad's death. I clung to Jesus with such tenacity although I had lost my faith and kept telling Him that I wouldn't let go. One evening, I heard a word in my mind, 'Relax' and I did. The oppressive feeling left me never to return. I thank God for the experience because it toughened me spiritually. Be tenacious like a bulldog, Morgan. He's got you completely covered. If He is for you, who can be against you?

  17. Thank you 🙏 ❤😢for sharing decades of feeling like Morgan I’ve survived not lived or thrived I have kids and grandchildren please pray for strength and freedom and healing xo 🙏

  19. I've suffered with horrific anxiety and depression since I can remember. There is.a.root cause and it usually stems from childhood traumatic experiences, even if you don't consciously remember them, your subconscious does and it manifests with panic attacks. In my case, I was holding onto repressed memories of being sexually abused as a child by my own father until I was 35 and it finally came out. So much made sense after that. I feel this woman has a lot of digging to do and subsequent healing from whatever she may have experienced.
