The War Has Begun
Russia has now invaded Ukraine from the north, south and east, with attacks on several cities, including the capital, Kyiv. The earthly war has begun. Let’s fight the spiritual one here. Lord, we ask You, please, to get families to safety. Protect lives. As people run or seek shelter, when they cry out to You,Continue reading “The War Has Begun”
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”
Every Prayer
It matters. Every day you pray. Every prayer you pray. It makes a difference. Revelation 8:3-5. Lord, don’t let us give up the fight. Even when it seems nothing is happening or our prayers aren’t getting answered the way we want them to, You are listening. We know because Your Word tells us so. OurContinue reading “Every Prayer”

A New Storm Is Coming
The Lord asked me to share this and also Hebrews 12 with you today after a dream He gave me last night: A new storm is coming, the likes of which you cannot prepare for unless you stay close to Me. Even now, it pushes against the wall, bulging and pressing, but the fortifications IContinue reading “A New Storm Is Coming”
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”
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”
Faith and Freedom for Youth
Lord, please set our children free from fear and demonic oppression. Whenever the enemy gives them a nightmare, invade that dream in visible, powerful ways and rescue them. Whenever they begin to lean on something or someone other than You, call them back. Remind them of the love, peace and joy only found in You,Continue reading “Faith and Freedom for Youth”
