Matthew 7:15 Beware of false prophets, who come to you in sheep’s clothing, but inwardly they are ravenous wolves.
I have seen a few posts on human trafficking. I want to give just a little insight. Being a licensed massage therapist I had to take a class on human trafficking to be able to recognize some of the signs. It is not what you see in the movies. These predators now also have social media platforms as well. They look for the weak, the vulnerable, those who are already abused at home, and those who feel unloved. This is mental abuse and mental warfare. They flatter, they listen carefully to all their fears, hopes, and dreams. They really listen and take notes. Why? Because they want every thing they can get to use to control them. They give and then they take it away and tell them “if you would just do what I asked then every thing would be better.” This can even happen in a regular relationship. The scares this leaves are deep.

Ephesians 6:4 And you, fathers, do not provoke your children to wrath, but bring them up in the training and abomination of the Lord.
Proverbs 22:6 Train up a child in the way he should go, and when he is old he will not depart from it.
1 Peter 4:8 And above all things have fervent love for one another, for love will cover a multitude of sins.
Lord, You have given us Your Son, Your Holy Spirit, and Your Word, Thank You is not enough. Lord in Jesus name helps us to lean into all these tools and gifts that we may be workmen who need not be ashamed. Father, Abba, we are all broken but Your Word says You bind up the broken hearted. Thank You, may the glory and honor be Yours forever and ever. amen
