The word of God is a sheild, therefore if we are not protected,by putting into practice what the Bible with the written words of Most High inspired by the Holy Sprit, what it pages say,we have no assurance of living without God or without Jesus in this crazy world,so if we are not saved, from this coming wrath,it is not God’s fault ❗
The deceiver has arrange a singal with the betrayer against the word of God !!
Sad that this has become such an everyday occurrence that no one has commented. Speaks volumes about your island. On one hand the Government insists that everyone working in hospitality has to have training on how to pretend to be polite (because it doesn’t come naturally) so as to fool the tourists with all their lovely money. Then your news reports yet more killings. Not good advertising.
THIS IS ST LUCIA’S
OLYMPICS KILLINGS AND
MURDERS AND KILLINGS AND MURDERS.
ST LUCIANS AT WAR WITH GOD.
The country is heading straight to hell in a hand basket ?
Jesus died for us in public but we are living for him in private..
Those who stands firm on the word of God,I can garantie you that death 🐍 Satan has no power over them,even for those who believes and are not yet a follower, for God knows the heart and will save us and our famally from this coming wrath..hold on !!
Do not give your 🇱🇨 St Lucia over to the enemy..
This generation needs Jesus
Let us pray for 🇱🇨 St Lucia, God’s people,to bring back those who are lost, for those whose sprit is willing but the body is weak..
Sincerly prayers are weapons against the devil schemes…
The word of God gives headache to the enemy because he cannot stand the truth…
The police have to step up their investigations Stop asking for eye Witnesses to Come Foward. The 555Line should be Relocated to the Cop and Dcp Office that’s when the police will Solve Cases .The Commissioner and Deputy will be passing on the information to the investors and not the Police Control Room. This must be updated immediately..Also the Government of the day have to Revisit the penalties for the offence of Unlicensed Firearms and Ammunition Please
Among a thousand there may be one Honest !!
Do not trust your shadow, people may be willing to give informations, but they are fear for their lives !
