A Prayer for Fathers

My dad is an amazing prayer warrior man of God.

Idols Down

One morning, the Lord awakened me to the song Endless Alleluia, and a vision of idols toppling to the ground on their faces.

Stand for What is Right

From Isaiah 51:7b-8, let’s ask the Lord for protection, courage, and empowering for those who stand for what is right and good, but who are persecuted relentlessly by those who disagree, who have been blinded by the enemy and push his purposes, rather than God’s.
