Naghmeh Panahi: Overcoming the ‘Idol’ of Marriage

[@starlingswallow]

Her story is so similar to mine. I was ground down daily to a robot. I could not have any emotions. Even being happy (which he claimed I never was) was punished. I was a prisoner in my own mind....but God was there with me ♥️ He gave me a way out~ and has blessed me since in mighty ways!

One thing I will say, this woman clearly understands what it means to be a Christian. Many recognized ‘Leaders’ in the Church don’t get it.

[@BMC_self-invent]

Marriage is such an important institution. But it's not to be idolized. Marriage is supposed to be a metaphor for the relationship between Christ and the church. And other people are called to singleness. If a man fails his marriage and is a fault for the mistreatment of one of his daughters, I don't want to be in his shoes during judgment. Marriage is supposed to inspire worship. Not be the center of worship.

[@FrankskinOrweed-ep4ij]

What do mean by centre of worship? Genuinely Curious, do u mean weddings are not necessary? Or wedding anniversaries should not be praised/celebreated?

Thank you, precious sister. I also made an idol out of marriage, when I was being abused. The abuse extended to my mother. I left. His response was to divorce me. Still praying.

I was an atheist who didn’t believe in any of it and I was attacked by demons/ghosts whatever you want to call it. It got so bad I had to admit it there was a spiritual realm. I didn’t know who to call for help because the attacks were getting very physical and not just me but my whole family who were in different parts of the world. I’m talking cell phones and land lines not working, ceiling fans that didn’t work turn on full force, water bottle flew, ect. I called my Christian brother and said “maybe your God can help us” so my brother prayed in the name of Jesus Christ. I had a super natural encounter with the most high God twice! He gave me His Holy Spirit and taught me not to join religious cults/buildings/groups. He taught me not to follow any human because we are all flawed but He is perfect. I still follow Him to this day, His Holy Spirit has changed me for the good. I testify Jesus Christ and His salvation. Get to know Him He is real💖

Finally The Holy Spirit said to me "do you want to be married or have your anointing?" I instantly saw myself at 85 looking back on my life and I chose my anointing. Then God told me I had to lay down the idol of marriage. From there God led me out of the marriage. I am thankful she shared her story!

This meant so much to me, thank you. I went through something similar, and haven't been back to church since. This helps me because someone beautiful like you also experienced this from church folks. It made me feel like I was not good enough to be with God's other children. But this is a confirmation to me that the rejection and mistreatment was not approved by God. It was not His heart for me. They totally missed Him there. God still has a plan for me, I am His daughter, and He can use me too.Bless you Naghmeh. Thank you for sharing❤

[@reneecarson2532]

My husband is a pastor and I only say that to tell you that even our daughter went through something similar and did not return to church for YEARS. One day a friend shared a Matthew West worship song and it’s JUST WHAT SHE NEEDED. She’s back with the LORD & in church singing her heart out every chance she gets. Her favorite expression is, “JESUS CHANGES EVERYTHING!” Be encouraged! You are special! God created you “fearfully and wonderfully” to BE, and BECOME ALL HE CREATED YOU to BE & do in HIS STRENGTH! No one else can fill your shoes or place in the body of CHRIST! ~ Ephesians 2:10! “May the JOY of the LORD be your STRENGTH,” from this day forward!

[@rena6895]

I remember every bit of this, I was so moved by Naghmeh’s testimony & binged watched all of her KZbin videos. I had been praying for her, their children & Saeed. I could not wrap my head around the abuse & why it came out when he was still imprisoned, I did not understand why she did not wait until he was released. For some reason I thought it was going to cost him his life, that the US would stop helping him. That is not what happened at all. Everyone had turned on Naghmeh, Franklin Graham put her & her children in danger. Saeed wanted to get the children, and Franklin Graham flew him to Boise, Idaho. It was all so confusing. She clearly is such a sweet sister in Christ & when the rest of her story was revealed you really saw how evil he really is. He was not the only one who was evil, he shared a story that I believed & later proved to be true. They were sitting on the runway in Iran, Saeed asked the pilot why they were waiting. In the middle of the night President Obama delivered over a billion dollars in cash, Iran has enough uranium to make at 8-10 nuclear bombs. Thanks to President Obama. He also pushed hard to bring in all of the “refugees” all military age men. No women or children. We have over 11.4 million illegal immigrants in our country, terrorist infiltrated through out our country. The next attack will be within the US mark this date I said it to be true. It is time to wake up. The only good thing Saeed did was call out Obama for the traitor he is. Iran also funded Hamas to attack Israel.

Should not shepherds take care of the flock? You eat the curds, clothe yourselves with the wool and slaughter the choice animals, but you do not take care of the flock. You have not strengthened the weak or healed the sick or bound up the injured. You have not brought back the strays or searched for the lost. You have ruled them harshly and brutally. This is what the Sovereign Lord says: I am against the shepherds and will hold them accountable for my flock. I will remove them from tending the flock so that the shepherds can no longer feed themselves. I will rescue my flock from their mouths, and it will no longer be food for them. “ ‘For this is what the Sovereign Lord says: I myself will search for my sheep and look after them. As a shepherd looks after his scattered flock when he is with them, so will I look after my sheep. I will rescue them from all the places where they were scattered on a day of clouds and darkness. I myself will tend my sheep and have them lie down, declares the Sovereign Lord. I will search for the lost and bring back the strays.

The thing about intimacy it's the desire to be nearer with your spouse. It needs to be a mutual desire or one looks desperate, and it turns into a pushing and pulling tugofwar/shoving competition, over who has the right to feel offended, and who needs to feel like they're walking on eggshells. Who wants to live like that? Who has time for that? It's exhausting... When my wife and I both aimed our lives towards Christ, we grew together. We started feeling like we were both rowing in the same boat in the same direction.

The ministry of sharing an abusive relationship story across border is really not the ministry God intended for you my dear, you were targeted by satan to loose your original calling and to arouse resentment amongst women who should have patiently endured the persecution of bad marriage as long as it was God allowing them to go through it, but because you hadn't died to yourself and your reputation as a woman who needs love and human dignity, that ministry went down the drain.

So they are no longer two, but one flesh. What therefore God has joined together, let no man separate.” They said to Him, “Why then did Moses command to GIVE HER A CERTIFICATE OF DIVORCE AND SEND her AWAY?” He said to them, “Because of your hardness of heart Moses permitted you to divorce your wives; but from the beginning it has not been this way.”• By the way, have you ever read Proverbs 30:6? 👉 •Do not add to His words lest He reprove you, and you be proved a liar.• I don't think that revelation was from Yahweh--the One True God. It seems to me that it was from the father of lies that Julie Roys has been serving (at least) for the past years. 🐍🐲

Wow! Triggered much? Your response reveals your heart is as hard as a rock! Review the fruits of the spirit. Didn’t see any of those evident in your comment. Most likely, you’re very religious but not saved. The 👍 is just so you’d know you got a response. I tried a 👎 but it didn’t show up.

Seems like you've got the letter of the law down pat. Can't sense much of the Spirit though...

America has no concept of the religion of Islam. I recommend that person take a fun filled vacation or cruise to Iran.

@Ephesians_5:..11 lady..... hey, wow!! are your hands hurting carrying too many stones to throw, lady? When was the last time you prayed on your knees for someone to be saved? Get off your high horses and repent! May God show mercy on you.✝️

Luke 14:26 "if anyone comes to Me, and does not hate his own father and mother and wife and children and brothers and sisters, yes, and even his own life, he cannot be My disciple". Oh how I loved Naghmeh because she loved the Lord and I deeply admire her courage and early ministry, however, she wasn't willing to fulfill the conditions of this scripture as a disciple. She loved her children and her life beyond the martyrdom of loosing them to a bad husband whose testimony of you both after the struggle should have brought uncountable souls to Christ even if you'll have to loose your earthly temporal life in the process in order to win Christ and make Him known to many whom God had graciously turned their hearts towards you. The ministry of sharing an abusive relationship story across border is really not the ministry God intended for you my dear, you were targeted by satan to loose your original calling and to arouse resentment amongst women who should have patiently endured the persecution of bad marriage as long as it was God allowing them to go through it, but because you hadn't died to yourself and your reputation as a woman who needs love and human dignity, that ministry went down the drain. I pray for your restoration early and the help of the Spirit.
