This is a time for war for our country and many other people. We must learn to be warriors. The evil one is very afraid of our prayers and tries to discourage us. He wants us to feel that our prayers are worthless, helpless and pathetic; yes, weak moans and whispers that have no power or authority to change things in our lives or society. In reality, our prayers are more like thunder and lightning from heaven that strike terror in the heart of the enemy.
Our prayers are used to change lives and destinies. Our prayers are the building blocks of God‘s kingdom in heaven, especially when they are spoken in love, humility and devotion. Our prayers are like atomic wrecking balls to the plans and schemes of the enemy.
Our prayers echo the sound of resurrection and hope for others and ourselves. Our prayers smother and silence the boasting of arrogant fools. Our prayers are used to shake the Earth and reassemble the chaotic puzzle and schemes of the messengers and prophets of darkness. Our prayers are used to shine light into darkness and dispel the shadows and fog of liars and deceivers. Our prayers bring wisdom and correction to the ridiculous but subtle schemes of the enemy. Our prayers provide the fuel and the floor for dancing, celebration and song. Our prayers give us clarity in the phase of confusion and doubt. Our prayers are like trumpets that announce the glory and majesty of God. Our prayers are like machine guns that mow down the enemy and make us the majority.
Our prayers help to announce the true nature of God and bring forth His plans and clarify His character to an unbelieving world. Our prayers helped to provide a hand of hope and power to the helpless and defeated. Our prayers are like a mighty shout that cries He is risen, He is alive! Yes, Prayer is a counter to the deadly drum beat of defeat and desperation. Prayer tickles the ears of God to place treasure and partnership with us in the hands of God. Our prayers are like a sound and a symphony of unity and harmony with the mind and thoughts of our Lord. Our prayers helped to heal and restore. Our prayers cause the Holy Spirit to partner with ministering Angels to create and bring forth the purposes of God. Our prayers are like a mirror that gives us an opportunity to see ourselves and make changes to be more like Jesus. You see, our prayers are a mighty gift of God to us to deal with our broken and evil world.
