These past couple of weeks, we’ve been praying through Isaiah 51. Today, as we look at verses 12-13, ask the Lord to bring to mind times when you have made decisions based on fear — especially fear of man — rather than seeking God for what He wanted to do through you in that situation.Continue reading “Driving Out Fear”

Praying for a Hopeful Future for Our Children
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. John 10:10. “For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord, “plans toContinue reading “Praying for a Hopeful Future for Our Children”
Pray for Those Trapped in Strongholds
A stronghold is a habitual sin or negative thought process that has such a “strong hold” on you it controls your responses rather than the Holy Spirit. Common examples are anxiety, anger, depression, lust, pornography, judgment, pride, self-pity, addictions, jealousy, control, unforgiveness, etc. The walls of these enemy fortifications are built with lies contrary toContinue reading “Pray for Those Trapped in Strongholds”
It’s All About Me
The way is narrowing, and less and less of those who think they are Mine will make it through. Whatever you’re holding onto — grudges, financial security, selfish desires, lust — whatever you’ve been spending your time, thoughts and efforts on that I have not called you to — you must let go now. ItContinue reading “It’s All About Me”
Only One Way Through This
Tensions are high these days. It’s easy to take your anger out on those you love. Please don’t do it. They are not your enemy. You do most definitely have an enemy. But it is not your family or even people at all. Ephesians 6:10-18. Please take the time you need to unplug. Stop theContinue reading “Only One Way Through This”
Thanksgiving & Religious Freedom
Originally posted on More Than A Conqueror:
“Bow your head. Close your eyes.” Then comes the prayer, right? In my family, if my 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…
Don’t Let Mistakes Rule You
This morning the Lord woke me up pointing to all the many ways He invites us to freedom, but we refuse to listen. Has that happened to you? Has someone confronted you on a sin, but you argued in self-defense? Gave all the more excuses for why you need to do that? Blamed someone else?Continue reading “Don’t Let Mistakes Rule You”
Human Trafficking – Isaiah 51:9-23
Lord, today we pray for those across the world who are oppressed through human trafficking. Invade their darkness with Your beauty. Speak to them. Tell them who You created them to be. Envelop them in Your love so completely, whatever the enemy does against them disappears in the vastness of Your love and grace. BeContinue reading “Human Trafficking – Isaiah 51:9-23”
Freedom through Forgiveness
Mark 11:25, Romans 4:7; 12:14; Colossians 3:13; 1 Peter 4:8 Yesterday, the Lord awakened me inviting His people to open wide our hearts to forgive, to let the Lord set us free from the old offenses the enemy has still been using to yank us around. Then bitterness and fear will no longer control ourContinue reading “Freedom through Forgiveness”
Abducted Missionaries in Haiti
Lord, we pray for the 17 missionaries (including children) who are being held hostage for ransom by gang members in Haiti since Saturday. Be a Mighty Shield around them, holding back the enemy and caring for all their needs. Protect them from harm and fight for them. Reveal to rescuers the location where the hostagesContinue reading “Abducted Missionaries in Haiti”
