“Bow your head. Close your eyes.” Then comes the prayer, right? In my family, if my missionary Daddy prayed before a meal, it might be cold by the time we got to it. His heartfelt prayers, often with tears, covered the lost without Christ, missionaries throughout the world, persecuted Christians, those going through hard times,Continue reading “Thanksgiving & Religious Freedom”

Freedom through Forgiveness
In yesterday’s post, the Lord was calling us as His people to open wide our hearts to forgive, to let Him set us free from the old offenses the enemy still uses to yank us around, so bitterness and fear will no longer control our reactions, but LOVE, grace and peace will. Mark 11:25, RomansContinue reading “Freedom through Forgiveness”

Come Out from There! – Isaiah 52
The Lord woke me up quoting from Isaiah 52, especially verses 11-12. I felt Him calling us to freedom. To leave behind the strongholds that have bound us, and do what it takes to run in the joy of the Spirit’s leading, so we can draw others into His love. A stronghold is a thoughtContinue reading “Come Out from There! – Isaiah 52”

Thanksgiving & Religious Freedom
As Thanksgiving approaches, let’s thank the Lord for the privilege and freedom to know and worship Him. Let’s also pray for our brothers and sisters throughout the world who do not have that freedom, but face persecution and even death because of their love for Christ. Isaiah 60:1-2. Lord, we thank You for all thatContinue reading “Thanksgiving & Religious Freedom”
Bring Us Out of Captivity
Let’s pray Jeremiah 29:11-14 over our country today, asking God to bring us back from all the ways we’ve been captive to the enemy, so our children (and we) will have a hope and a future of abundant life, rather than destruction (John 10:10). Lord, You have given us a choice, because You are loving.Continue reading “Bring Us Out of Captivity”
Remove the Barriers
Psalm 32; John 8:31-32; 14:15-21; Matthew 17:20 Through negative life experiences and wrong thought processes, the enemy has embedded lies, sins, and self-protective habits (strongholds) so deeply in your heart that your will alone is not enough to break free. You need Someone stronger. If you don’t know what I’m talking about, don’t worry. IContinue reading “Remove the Barriers”
Pray for the Innocent
An estimated 1.7 billion children worldwide experience abuse (about 3 million within the USA). In most cases, that abuse happens by the hand of a parent or other family member, but an estimated 8 million children go missing every year, anywhere between 400,000 to 800,000 of those within the USA. In addition, many children growContinue reading “Pray for the Innocent”
Time to Overthrow
People of God, we must rise up and overthrow the enemy. Isaiah 52:2. Today, we must say, “No!” to the gangrenous thoughts we have allowed Satan to feed us that are contrary to what God says. Now is the time. Throw off the chains of selfish ambition, bitterness, anxiety, the dangerous ways we seek to “escape,” and everything elseContinue reading “Time to Overthrow”
