FRENCH POLICE BURDEN

TWO WEEKS PRIOR (8/3-21/15) I WAS PRAYING FOR THE FRENCH POLICE. GOD HAD GIVEN ME A BURDEN TO PRAY FOR THEM TO BE COURAGEOUS.  HE SPOKE TO ME ABOUT ALL THE RECENT TERROR ATTACKS (FROM 1/15 TO PRESENT) IN FRANCE, GOD SPOKE TO ME ABOUT THESE FINE PUBLIC SERVANTS POSSIBLY BEING AFRAID OF MUSLIMS.  IT'S IMPORTANT FOR THEM TO DO THEIR JOB WITHOUT FEAR.  HOW ELSE CAN A PERSON BE PROTECTED FROM A BANK ROBBERY?  A MUGGER?  ETC.

MY BURDEN WAS FOR THE FRENCH POLICE TO KNOW IT WAS SAFE FOR THEM TO DO THEIR JOB PROPERLY.  MY PRAYER WAS FOR THEM TO REALIZE GOD WOULD PROTECT THEM FROM THE TERRORISTS.  LOOK WHAT HAPPENED!  TOURISTS ON A TRAIN (WITH PARIS ON THEIR ROUTE) FOUGHT TERRORISTS AND WON.  (8/21/15)

THESE MEN WEREN'T ON DUTY, THEY WERE ON VACATION. THESE MEN WEREN'T CONSCIOUSLY THINKING "FIGHT."   SUCH AS WHEN THE POLICE ARE ON DUTY.  THESE MEN WERE THINKING "IT'S PARTY TIME."  YES, THEY HAD A FEW MINUTES TO PREPARE.  BUT THE FACT OF THE MATTER, THESE MEN WEREN'T IN COMBAT GEAR.  THESE MEN WERE DRESSED LIKE TYPICAL PEOPLE, THEY HAD NO WEAPONS FOR PROTECTION.  THESE MEN ROSE UP IN A MOMENT TO FIGHT AND DEFEND.  IT DOESN'T WHAT THEY WERE THINKING: SELF-PRESERVATION, PROTECTION OF LOVED ONES, PROTECT THE TRAIN.  THE FACT IS - THESE MEN STOOD UP TO FIGHT.

THESE MEN ARE A GOOD EXAMPLE OF WHAT I WAS PRAYING ABOUT.  THEY SHOWED EVERYONE "YOU DON'T HAVE TO BE AFRAID.  GOD WILL PROTECT YOU!"  THANK YOU, GOD, FOR ANSWERING MY PRAYER.
