Oohhh.... I don't even want to go there concerning the ripple effect on the Body of Christ.... their congregation.... Whewwww.... My Lord....
this is terrible. I've always thought something wasn't trustworthy about his eyes though. I wonder if he has been beating her throughout their relationship .
This is sad. Women all across America are being beaten up by their husbands or SO's and some are even being killed.
What are we to do? How can we overcome these atrocities in our lives as women?
The one thing I know for sure is that:
NO ONE DESERVES THIS...NO MATTER WHAT, for by the grace of God there goes I!
Unfortunately, it is someone whom we all know and love. It's tragic, but happens all the time in many a household. I know this to be true because I counsel many, many women and my dh counsel their husbands about this very thing. This is an area where satan has a foothold and it's about time it stops.
We don't really know what took place in their home, from the beginning of their marriage till now. Let us, as people of the Most High God, come together and pray for them...that is what the Lord is looking for, people who will pray without ceasing. Hearts that are for His Kingdom purposes. Being restored to be empowered to do the work of the ministry.
We must be careful....the enemy is like a roaring lion, seeking to whom he may devour. These types of topics can give the enemy an open door even into our own lives by how we conduct ourselves when we speak about these topics, even in a forum.
I implore you, women of God, to please pray for them. It's horrendous what has happened to both of them and can happen to anyone at anytime.
Dear Heavenly Father,
Our hearts are heavy this morning, hearing this awful, tragic news. How deep are the moans and groans of our hearts. But, we know that you are a God of power and might and that you are able to make ALL Grace abound for those who believe. We believe your Word and we know that you are able to deliver those affected by this tragic event.
My prayer is that you would bring healing both to Minister Bynam and her husband. They both are your children and whatsoever has caused this thing to happen, you will still be with them, just like you are with us when we fall. You said a righteous man will fall 7 times, but the Lord will lift him up. Lift them up today....for they need to draw from the well that never runs dry...the water of life that will sustain them and keep them.
Help us, Heavenly Father, to be reminded that we are not exempt from tragedy's in our own lives. But, with your grace which is suffiencet for us, in our weakness we will draw strength from you. Receive our prayers as we lift them up before you for this couple and help us to not bring judgement; for you are the Righteous Judge and vengence is yours.
Thank you, Father, for loving us and causing us to always stay humble in your presence.
Provoked?YES! She alluded to it when they first got married. He said he grabbed her by the arm and she was yelling get your hands off me. I read between the lines.
I hate that this has happened BUTTTTT I see it differently.
Do you all know that when they got together he was already either married or in a relationship??
I think that being married to her has to be very difficult, she has a very strong personality. I think that she provoked him. and THAT'S MY OPINION.
Juanita under attack can only mean a much higher level
ITA! Shimmie. That is a wise and powerful profession of faith. This is truly the attitude that Christ would want us to exemplify in this situation. We often forget that only he who has not sinned CAN cast the 1st stone and that God measures all sin equally. There is no "little" sins and "big" sins. Its ALL disobedience to God's will. They BOTH need our prayers. This is a very sad event.
Provoked?
I would say her stature 'intimidated' him. Afterall, Juanita had already paid the price for her annointing and strong appeal to many. It was more like he was following in 'her' footsteps and the success she was having on her own (so to speak) was putting him in the shadows and not the limelight.
However, it is God who gives any of us promotion; for promotion doesn't come from the east nor the west but from the Lord and only the Lord.
It seems Thomas was caught up in the 'stature' whirlwind that ministries are so caught up in these days. Whatever happened to worshipping God in the sawdust and still be fully blessed? I believe their decision to build a ministry in Atlanta was the onset of the rivalry between them that the enemy used to his advantage to destroy this couple's union.
All these stories with these prominent ministers having very public “issues” makes me think that God is doing some Holy housecleaning. I also believe that Sister Bynum’s situation is public, because it’s a testimony to probably countless church women (and all women) who are in this very situation, that even a beautiful, kind, good woman can fall into this situation. It has definitely been a wake-up call to me that just because things “look” good, doesn’t mean they are!
This is sad. Women all across America are being beaten up by their husbands or SO's and some are even being killed.

Provoked the news story saysProvoked?
Provoked the news story says
Quote: "The meeting reportedly did not go well and ended with Bishop Weeks leaving abruptly. The relative said Reverend Bynum followed him to the parking lot where the two exchanged words."
He was probably trying to walk away from her.
I see alot about Juanita that probably the average person doesn't.
There's more to this story than meets the eye, do your research girls. They started out wrong. Nita was ready to throw in the towel along time ago. No, no one deserved to be abused by anyone man or woman.
to me it does.I would just like to ask you:
Does it really matter?
to me it does.
Oh, ok. So my guess is that you are not in agreement with the prayer for her and her husband. That's ok, I understand.
May the Lord bless you.
Here is a message I was e-mailed in reguards to this situation. It really spoke to me.
I pray for us as strong beautiful Black women who are often single and who look at this situation and ask God "why"? Why do strong, successful Black women have such a hard time meeting and maintaining a relationship with Black men? We could place blame on the men, the futility it seems of marrying men younger than us or who have fewer resources than we may have. But what good is it to have been blessed and come home everyday to a beautiful house where's no one to hold you. But we don't want to be married to a fool either or to be taken advantage of --- it's better to live in a house alone than one filled with strife. We could place the blame in the danger of openly praising our men when we feel that we've finally met a king. Shouldn't we be able to praise the men in our lives when we love them and are proud of them, when we desire to build them up in a world that's often difficult for them. Yet, we shouldn't tolerate arrogant and controlling men either.
So, Lord I ask you today look upon your daughters today and the brothers in our community. We need a communal healing -- restore us, reconnect us, renew us emotionally, spiritually and economically so that we may be healed from generations of being pulled apart in our love relationships. Erase the hurts, the anger and the disease that has infiltrated our love lives and make us whole again, Amen.
Beautiful prayer...and we KNOW He hears us for God never gives our prayers a deaf ear; neither is His arm too short to reach us. He can even reach this precious couple we know and love. In Jesus' name, Amen and Amen.This is sad. Women all across America are being beaten up by their husbands or SO's and some are even being killed.

Like a stale 'twig'...a twig disconnected from the branch of the True Vine...Our Lord Jesus.By all means keep them lifted up in prayer. We all need prayer.
I think several things and some of them are contridictory. For him to beat her like he did actually stomping and kicking her, I would say he snapped.
