Prayers for Parents

The years we have with our children under our roof are limited. Let’s pray God will guide Christian parents to raise up young men and women who love the Lord with all their hearts and who stand strong in Truth against the sway of the world and its lies. Pray Christian parents will Truly knowContinue reading “Prayers for Parents”

Fires in Texas

 At least 175 fires in the past week have burned nearly 95,000 acres across the state of Texas. Lord, please stop the fires. Dowse the land with rain today and bring relief. Be a Shield around every firefighter and give them wisdom to know how to contain the fires. Comfort families who have lost homesContinue reading “Fires in Texas”

Do Not Fear

I awoke from a dream where a little girl worriedly tugged on her mother’s skirt, saying “Mommy, Mommy! I don’t want to go bye-bye.” Her face still haunts me as I write this. What devastation. So many mothers and children in Ukraine have been injured and killed, especially after Russia bombed a maternity and children’sContinue reading “Do Not Fear”

The Battle for Life

We’ve been praying for Ukraine and the world, but is your family or someone you know also facing a battle of their own at this time? We have a real enemy (Ephesians 6:12, 1 Peter 5:8) who operates a lot like the one Ukraine is facing now. Lies, justifying sin, stepping over boundaries, wearing usContinue reading “The Battle for Life”

Rise Up and 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 toContinue reading “Rise Up and Overthrow”

Raising Up Warrior Women of God

Let’s pray for our daughters today…. Lord, please grow our daughters up to love You with all their hearts. Protect them from the plots of the enemy to harm them or draw them away from You. Be a Shield around them, and give them wisdom to choose the paths that lead to LIFE, rather thanContinue reading “Raising Up Warrior Women of God”

Courage to Forgive

Is there anyone I haven’t forgiven yet? Show me, please, Lord, and give me courage to forgive. Forgiveness is not saying that what the offender did is okay. Sin is never okay.  And it’s not forgetting, although forgetting sometimes happens as a result of forgiveness. Forgiveness is cutting the tie that binds your heart toContinue reading “Courage to Forgive”

Joyfully One

A few nights ago I had a dream in which God’s people gathered from all nations to daily have breakfast together. There was no distinction between races, cultures or portions, but all were of one Kingdom, one family, and all received the same perfectly proportioned manna-cake. They were laughing, each seated wherever they were inContinue reading “Joyfully One”

Seeing through Love’s Eyes

Misunderstandings are one of the enemy’s favorite tactics for dividing relationships, especially marriages. If he can plant thoughts in our mind about hidden motives or meanings behind what someone says, then he has tricked us into obeying his lead, rather than the Spirit’s. Such “mind-reading” is dangerous because of James 4:11-12 and Matthew 7:1-5. OnlyContinue reading “Seeing through Love’s Eyes”

Joy and Freedom

Love. Joy. Peace. Abundant life. These are ours through Christ. Galatians 5:22-23, John 10:10. Lord, what has been blocking me from more of You? If You are my Peace, then why am I so anxious? If You are my joy and You are Love, then why am I depressed or angry? How have I allowedContinue reading “Joy and Freedom”
