In part 2 of the Watchers we dive into the types of human trafficking. My hopes in speaking about this subject matter are that you will understand that trafficking is real and happening around many of us today. Trafficking is almost invisible because sometimes the victims may go missing not seen again unless the predators are caught. Unfortunately there is a high price paid for healthy organs and people pay for sex trafficking and other upsetting ventures.

If someone is in need of a kidney or a heart and can't get one from an available donor list, another option to get the organ is through trafficking, which means a person is sometimes kidnapped and the organs are taken. In some third world countries this has become commonplace. There have even been reports of people harvesting organs all over the world even in the united states. The costs paid to criminals is often high, making some more willing to take risks to find what a requester is looking for.

Sex trafficking works close to the same way kidnapping an unwilling victim and forcing them into a life of selling sex for profit. With organ/sex trafficking on the rise anyone can be profiled and watched.

What can you do? Be informed and stay aware of your surroundings at all times especially when you are in unknown areas. My desire is to bring you information and not place fear in your heart.

Below i'm including some links to articles that speak more about what's happening in some dark areas right around us:

In my world only you.... make me do for love what I would not do! (song by Bobby Caldwell). In this show I try to touch on topics that make relationships unhealthy. We talk about releasing yourself from the bondage of toxic relationships.

I list the show notes below:

Setting the story line with the following two songs below:

Acapella of the song by bobby caldwell - What you wont do for love

Acapella of the song by -Keyshia Cole - I remember

1. No more trips down memory lane trying to remember the good times

2. After you've done all you can stand {prayed, stayed, paid, hurt, gave, suffered and finally let go.

Ephesians 6:13

And having done all, to stand

1. Some people must heal themselves..we can't fix others only ourselves ( anger, resentment, abuse, self hate and ugliness)

2. No matter how they try to make you feel

3. The verbal spars you must renounce

4. Support for our families - 1 Timothy 5:8 (ESV) But if anyone does not provide for his relatives, and especially for members of his household, he has denied the faith and is worse than an unbeliever.

5. When you stand there will be those who may not be happy with you...

6. keep ya head up by 2pac a nice reminder -https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XW--IGAfeas

7. Let the let the heavenly farther stand for you

Psalm 27:10 King James Version (KJV)

10 When my father and my mother forsake me, then the Lord will take me up.

King James Version (KJV)

A beautiful reminder from our Heavenly Farther:

Isaiah 43:18-19 King James Version (KJV)

18 Remember ye not the former things, neither consider the things of old.

19 Behold, I will do a new thing; now it shall spring forth; shall ye not know it? I will even make a way in the wilderness, and rivers in the desert.

& Joy On The Incline

So you think your in love with a great person and everything seems to be going amazingly well.

At times it feels like you are so happy that you want to scream for joy. Suddenly a life bomb drops and you realize the other party may not be feeling you or the relationship was simply not meant to be. In this show we talk about the complexities of relationships in today's world and learning how to let go and connect with God for healing.

Part 1- Starts off with a little music on my personal renditions of 4 popular Mary J. Blige songs which I feel set's the tone perfectly. In this show we discuss the relationship process with feelings and emotions and I will also share some of my experiences. We also begin the start of the conversations of developing soul ties..

I hope you enjoy my Acapella versions of the music I selected to set the tone for Part 1 listed below:

*********************************************************************************************

Mary J. Blige

7 Days - Mary J. Blige - Seven Days ft. George Benson - YouTube

Never wanna live without you - Mary J. Blige-I Never Wanna Live Without You - YouTube

I'm going down - Mary J. Blige - Mary J. Blige - I'm Goin' Down (Official Video) - YouTube

Be happy - Mary J. Blige - Be Happy (Official Matt X Version) - YouTube

I found this article online and liked the prayer. I will continue to share all information I find on this subject:

Article: Untangling Soul Ties - https://shelemah.com/soul-ties/

Prayer for Breaking Soul Ties:

I break all soul ties with (name of person),

And cut off all influence from them

I send back to them all that is theirs, washed in the blood of Jesus

I reclaim all that is mine, washed in the blood of Jesus,

Jesus what am I receiving back?

Take Care and God Bless!

This show we look at the seducing power of music, by examining the R&B song -If only for one night by Luther Vandross. Acapella style song, humor, ( girlfriend style chit chat), skits and interesting view on the lyrics of some of the more popular songs of yesterday. It's important we look at the music and it's powerful influences on our cultures and lifestyle. Music literally has the power to touch your soul and can be a conscious or an unconscious factor in decisions we make.

A short but important episode on the importance of prayer...& spiritual warfare....

Enjoy..

For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.

Ephesians 6:12 KJV

For though we walk in the flesh, we do not war after the flesh:

4 (For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal, but mighty through God to the pulling down of strong holds;)

2 corinthians 10:3-4

KJV
