If ever there was a time for the church to rise up and shine, to throw off the bushels we’ve hidden Christ’s light beneath, it is now. Matthew 5:14-16. Now is the time to end our bickering and seek the mind of Christ. To pray in unity and in His power. To let His lightContinue reading “Be His Light to the Nations – Matthew 5:14-16”

Persevere
Blessed is the man who is patient under trial and stands up under temptation, for when he has stood the test and been approved, he will receive the victor’s crown of life which God has promised to those who love Him.

Touch This Nation, Change Our Hearts
Decades ago, when God called us to move to a nation where Christians are persecuted and share the good news with the lost, powerful prayer warriors joined us on that journey. Many were elderly.

A Covering for the Persecuted, A Savior for the Persecutors
As we pray for believers in danger throughout the world this Christmas, I have been thinking on Mary and Joseph’s escape to Egypt in Matthew 2:13-15, when Herod set out to murder Jesus.

Armor of God Prayer
Let’s pray Ephesians 6:10-20 over our churches and families today: O God, make us strong in You and in Your mighty power. For You are our armor. Cover us fully, so we can stand as one against the devil’s schemes. Remind us that our struggle is not against our brothers and sisters, or any otherContinue reading “Armor of God Prayer”
Courage to Stand
Lord, don’t let us cower in fear of what is to come, but give us courage to stand strong, to love beyond borders and barriers, prejudices and pain. To fight in Your mighty power for the things of Your heart. To bear up under our trials as good soldiers. To trust in You through everyContinue reading “Courage to Stand”
