It is time to PRAY! It is time to bring Heaven and earth together in our homes, in our personal prayer time as well as our corporate prayer times. Wickedness has controlled our homes, communities and our cities long enough. No longer will we allow the enemy to dictate the lives of those in our communities. I pray we all are consciously aware of the fact that we are spiritually responsible for our families, communities and city. IT IS TIME TO FIGHT!
Let us engage in Warfare Prayer, keeping in mind that this kind of prayer has nothing to do with our emotions, but by faith. The enemy would have us cry out to God as a form of prayer (which we do cry out to God in prayer but that is a different kind of prayer). We must not get caught up in such a pattern of prayer of emotionalism. There is a time when we MUST engage in Warfare Prayer. This level of prayer is not tied in with our emotions. It takes faith to enter into this level of prayer. Emotion is a feeling: a state of feeling. We do nothing after the flesh, but by the Spirit.
2Co 10:3 For though we walk in the flesh, we do not war after the flesh:
2Co 10:4 (For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal, but mighty through God to the pulling down of strong holds;)
BUT faith is complete confidence, a strong belief, complete trust, without questions, and strong conviction. Faith shows God that we do TRUST and BELIEVE Him. Denouncing doubt and knowing that God has already done it!
Heb 11:1 Now, faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.
Let us move pass emotional passive prayers. Passive prayers do not move or confuse the enemy. The only thing that passive prayers accomplish is repetition. The enemy will back up once we step into prayer warfare with confidence, knowing who we are and who God is!
Together lets read Hebrew chapter 11 and be reminded of what faith can and will accomplish.
