I’m already in my third month of strip club outreach! Every Saturday night, I spend about two hours talking with scantily clad women in several different clubs, about God.
It’s been interesting to say the least.
First off, the warfare involved with front lines ministry is a whole other level, especially when one has history in the sex industry. But, the devil uses the same old tired tactics, so once I saw the pattern of attack, I called on a team of intercessors. Praise God!
I’ve listened to the stories of these beautiful women, I’ve cried, I’ve prayed, and testified.
I ran into an old family friend who ran for the hills when he saw me. Hopefully home to his wife and small children. I wonder how church went for him the next day?
I’ve seen demons manifest, experienced push back, but more than any darkness, I’ve seen and felt LOVE.
Last week when I went out, I’ll admit I was dragging. I’m usually hit with intense fatigue the hours leading up to outreach. But I’m heavily invested in these girls at the moment, so nothing was going to stop me.
As we prayed in the car before going into the club, a portion of my prayer was this:
“Thank you Lord that I don’t have to feel like a warrior to BE a Kingdom warrior for You. Thank you that no matter how I’m feeling, the Light of Christ still shines through me because You are always in me and with me.”
We went in and God already had a divine appointment waiting for me in the dressing room with one of the ladies. I left there delivered from fatigue and heaviness, and high on the Holy Spirit from ministering to her!
You don’t have to FEEL like a warrior in every moment to still be one and to still be used by God. Thank you, Holy Spirit, for leading me to each woman I need to connect with during outreach tonight!
