There is a movie that came out this week on July 4th about a true story of a man who started this organization that rescues children from sexual trafficking. Please check out the movie trailer.
Here is a short interview of the actor who plays the lead role in the movie “Sound of Freedom”. Please let us pray that this movie will have far-reaching impact to combat sexual trafficking of children and vulnerable people worldwide. This quote in the article stands out to me: “The only true antidote to spiritual warfare, Caviezel explained, is a deepening dependence on God.” – https://www.faithwire.com/2023/06/27/more-afraid-of-the-devil-than-they-are-of-god-jim-caviezel-offers-warning-to-modern-day-christians/
Online Safety Guide for Parents – Here is a very good link for parents about online safety tips for children. Please do know these facts and pray about how to inform your children. – https://ourrescue.org/training/did-you-know
In the summertime, I think kids spend more time online. Being involved with advocacy and awareness of this issue for 12 years, I know that no child or family is safe from online sexual predators. It’s a must prayer point to pray about for your children and grandchildren – not just once but continually. In our women’s prayer group, this is something that we pray about all the time. We turn our fears into prayers and depend upon God to protect our children and grandchildren.
Experts now believe that human trafficking has surpassed the economy of drug trafficking. There are more people in slavery today than any other time in human history. It is because of this fact that I believe Jesus Christ will be coming back soon, even perhaps in our lifetime. He especially loves the little children and I’m not sure how long such atrocities of evil against children will continue to be tolerated. God is exceedingly patient but there comes a point…then judgement comes.
A21 has good educational resources for parents, educators and students that share facts of human trafficking in a manageable way. There are good preventative FYIs too. – https://www.a21.org/content/education/grc2u8
I thought I could breathe a sigh of relief once my daughter was older. Boy was I wrong. Here are statistics about sexual assaults in colleges and against young people. Please browse this link and use your mama-bear passions for your children to cling onto Jesus Christ for the protection of your children and grandchildren. – https://www.nsvrc.org/statistics?fbclid=IwAR1dwPLMiJfJM36TzB0WFinv9ufYrOw_6ubAoALT8irbhuKIIjmtxnt_370&mibextid=Zxz2cZ
Even if your child or your loved one becomes a victim of sexual assault despite your actions and prayers; at least your conscience will be clear that you did everything possible to protect your children and grandchildren. Let’s also remember that God uses ALL things for our good for those who love Him. Here is a great message by pastor RT Kendall about this Romans 8:26 verse. He’s 86 years old and I always love to hear teachings by the older saints because they have so much richness, wisdom and humility in their testimonies that come by living life for a very long time, trusting and following God. http://sermons.tsc.nyc/the-family-secret/
And we know that all things work together for good to those who love God, to those who are the called according to His purpose. – Romans 8:28 (NKJV)
Here is a message and prayer from Dr. Francis Myles that I think you should hear too. One of his prayer is a prayer for your children against sexual predators. His accents sometimes is hard to understand (his home country is Zambia 🇿🇲) but please go back and listen to it again. His knowledge of the Old Testament books and spiritual revelations are remarkable. He makes me think/ponder/pray about these insights. I also think there’s no harm in trying a new way of prayer. I easily accepted and learned Mom’s in prayer method of prayer; so why not try this method too? I have some prayer friends who are resistant and I think it’s because they are uncomfortable acknowledging and addressing the enemy in the open during the prayer. Perhaps it’s because I am very informed about what sexual predators do to their victims and so I want to use the all the spiritual weapons of prayer given to me as a daughter of the Most High God to protect not only my own children but many other children who don’t receive prayers from their parents or grandparents. – https://youtu.be/B0-5BXWxs7o
