A Call to Battle



We are at all out war. Our nation is under severe attack. If we want to protect our children and their future we have to put on our gear and get in the battle. We must seek God's face like never before. It's time to come out of hiding and stand before the Throne of God boldly.

The weapons we use are not guns and tanks. Our arsenal is fasting and prayer. We are battling principalities and rulers that are in dark places. They are oppressing and working diligently through people to subvert and hide the truth that they want to destroy the freedom that God has blessed us with. They are stealing our young people and infiltrating the church en mass. Their goal is to remove all forms of righteousness and any trace of godliness from our land. If the church rises up to defend our land we will win because God is on our side, who can be against us? He will restore what the locust have eaten and we will be given a chance at a fresh new beginning. Let's do this for our future generations before it’s too late!

We need to especially zero in on the spirits that are being used to attack these areas:

Our President Trump and his cabinet
Our judicial system and attorney general Barr
China that is being strategically used right now and it's future planned attacks.

I've written the prayer below as a guideline to help us stand together in unity with one heart and mind:

Dear Father, 


I pray that the Spirit of wisdom, revelation and the knowledge of Jesus Christ would be poured out on your people. Flood our hearts with the light of your revelation for which we have been called for this time. Speak truth to every believer.


Wake up your children. Let everyone who is godly pray to you while you may be found and sing sing of deliverance over us and over all those who will come into your Kingdom (Psalm 37). Reach them all wherever they are. Visit every household with Fire. Usher them all onto the highway of holiness. 


We repent and take accountability for our actions and beliefs that have caused us to turn from you Father and we turn our face back to you. Heal our land!! (2 Chron 7:14)


May the fire of the Holy Spirit consume every evil and chaff in our lives and in the lives of those in leadership and may you direct the hearts of our leaders like a water course to be bent toward your perfect will. (Prov 21:1)


Bind up evil so that it will lose  all influence and power and may your righteousness prevail and reign in our land and in this world. 


Demolish every evil thought and argument  that is set up against You and bring it to justice. Bring every agenda that is not of you into captivity to the obedience of Christ. ( 2 Cor 10:5)


We pray for the church around the world, especially in China for the pulling down of evil strongholds and every high thing that exalts itself against You ( 2 Cor 10:3). We forbid the evil spirits that are controlling China to come into our country and we pray against  any new disease that they  are planning to release here. 


May your anointing and yolk breaking power be upon all of our leaders, especially our president and our judicial branch. Give our justice system eyes to see in the spirit realm. 


We pray for justice and righteousness in our land and we cut at the root of evil and the present dark principalities and  powers that are controlling our country that are at work to remove our freedom. We pray that all indictments against evil persons are released so that Justice will be served and we pray that Roe vs Wade be reversed to break the curse that it brought to our land. 


Foil the plans of the enemy to corrupt our voting system. 


We pray against the spirit of division and racism that is dividing our nation and pray for your Spirit of unity and love to be released. We pray against the spirits of fear and anger that are tormenting people and for your Spirit of peace, a sound mind and self control  to be released. 


Empower your people to stand up firmly for Godly principles and protect them and their families from the enemy. 


We have been given the Keys to your Kingdom and  been sent as your ambassadors here on earth. We have the authority in Jesus Christ so we take these keys and release your righteousness and power to overcome the power of the evil One and we take back this land that we have been given because of your favor. Release the angelic powers of heaven to do warfare on our behalf. May your Kingdom come in our land and on the earth as it is in heaven. Amen.

The Big Problem - Part 3




My spirit is redeemed now what?

Jesus lived a perfectly sinless life from beginning to end. An innocent man, he carried all of our sins with him on the cross and died for mankind, once for all. so that we could be restored to the Father. God offers this priceless gift to all who will trust Him and receive it by faith. When we accept this gift we are born of the Spirit. This means we are once again restored to fellowship with the Father because we are in Christ. We no longer stand in our filthy worthless righteousness we stand in His perfect righteousness. Sin no longer gets in the way of our relationship with God.
We can now look forward to the promise and hope that we have of receiving our resurrected glorified bodies when Christ comes again. We will dwell with Him forever more. What do we do in the meantime while we wait?

There is plenty to keep us busy while we wait. We have been set free from the bondage of sin to live in glorious freedom in Christ. God didn't save us to be in a stagnant relationship with Him. He saved us to be in a vibrant and active relationship with Him and to partner with Him in his work here on earth. Our new birth in Christ is just the beginning of our new life. We are now a new creation that has been given spiritual life in Him. When we are born of the Spirit, just as when babies are born of the flesh, we are immature. We must grow in our knowledge of our Lord and learn all his ways in order to become the spiritually mature adults that God wants us to be. We are citizens of God's Heavenly Kingdom and ambassadors for Christ here on earth fitted in His righteousness, purified and ready to do the works that God has prepared for us to do in advance. As we grow in maturity we will be given more responsibility in God's Kingdom.

However there is still one problem, our fleshly desire to sin doesn't simply go away when we are born of the Spirit because our physical bodies are not transformed yet.
Sin no longer separates us from God but it can still cause plenty of problems in our lives if we let it in. While in these bodies, temptation is still a snare that can lead us to sin. It's our responsibility to resist the devil and to flee from temptation. Sometimes we will stumble. If sin is not dealt with swiftly and firmly in our lives it allows our enemy a foothold. This is why it's so important for us to continue to walk in the Spirit, in the ways of God. As we grow in maturity it becomes easier. Thankfully we are not left on our own. We are given the indwelling of the Holy Spirit to help us to grow in faith and to remain faithful. It's our responsibility to stay in the Word of God and to listen to the Holy Spirit when he speaks to us. We also have each other. No man is an island. We need each other. We are all part of the Body of Christ so we are all in this race together. We have been given the very power of God in us to help us over come temptations but if we do sin we have the perfect High Priest Jesus Christ Himself, to intercede for us. God has faithfully provided us with everything we need to live fruitful lives filled with peace and joy. We are guaranteed to succeed if we stay faithful to Him. In the end our reward will be greater than any earthly thing that you can ever possibly imagine. Let's run to win!

Do you not know that in a race all the runners run, but only one receives the prize? Run in such a way as to take the prize. - 1 Corinthians 9:24
