Our prayers continue for all those who were affected great or small and their families around the world. Let us pray and speak God’s Word to set the following in motion for the victims, evacuees, children, agencies, organizations, officials,, volunteers and divine intervention of unity and agreement for:
Wisdom; Leadership; Comfort; Families re-united; Help and provision; Coordination; Healing; Protection; Support; Finances; Rebuilding; Relocation; Recovery; Strength; Locating missing loved ones; New beginnings; Rebuke other storms.
This is the confidence we have in approaching God: that if we ask anything according to His will, he hears us. And if we know that He hears us. Whatever we ask, we know that we have what we asked of Him. 1 John 5:14-15
We can spend time pointing the finger or shifting blame back and forth; however, we must remember that we fight not against flesh and blood. There is evil at work, when all is said and done. And when fear is present along with strife and confusion; every evil work is also present. Fear breeds anxiety and panic; scarcity and lack; and all manner of evil things.
Faith, prayer and praise bring God on the scene to rescue, heal and deliver.
So how do you, I and others even begin to put things back into prospective? The kingdom of darkness vs. the kingdom of Light: The battle continues. But we win, right? Yes, we win!
I recently thought of Daniel in the lion’s den; the three Hebrew boys in the fiery furnace; David hiding in caves from Saul; Esther risking her very life to get audience with the king; and countless of others from the Old and New Testiment scriptures.
God delivered them all. He is the same, today, tomorrow and forever.
What do we have to help shield us these days? Let us take another look at God’s Armor: Its purpose and what can happen when we use it.
A Breakdown of Ephesians 6:10-18 (TGH)
Finally, let the Lord make you strong. Depend on His mighty power. Put on God’s Armor.
Then you can stand firm against the devil’s evil plans.
Our fight is not against human beings. It is against the rulers, the authorities and powers of this dark world. It is against the spiritual wicked forces of evil in the heavenly world atmosphere: the prince of the power of the air above us. ( the same type of prince who held up Daniel's answer for 21 days.)
So put on all of God’s Armor. Evil days will come. But you will be able to stand up to anything. And after you have done everything you can, you still will be standing. Hallelujah!
So stand firm as though you have hope in the God you worship and serve.
Put the belt of truth around your waist: Belt of Truth - knowing what God's Word says.
Put the armor of godliness on your chest: Chest Armor of Godliness - Doing what God says is right.
Wear on your feet what will prepare you to tell the good news of peace: Shoes of Peace - Telling others about God's peace.
Also pick up the shield of faith. With it you can put out all the flaming arrows of the evil one: Shield of Faith - Believing God will give you His mighty power.
Put on the helmet of salvation: Helmet of Salvation – Personally Receiving Jesus Christ to live in your heart.
And take the sword of the Holy Spirit. The sword is God’s Word: Sword of the Spirit - Trusting God's Word guided by His Holy Spirit.
Each piece of God’s Armor is a choice to take action and use by putting it on; wearing it; being clothed in it; and confident of its power to do what God says it will do.
Not once did God say to gossip and blame; complain and murmur; or point the finger at one another in the face of adversity; not once.
But, at all times, pray by the power of the Holy Spirit. Pray all kinds of prayers. Be watchful, so that you can pray and always keep on praying for all of God’s people.
I hope you have been encouraged and helped in some way today. It takes all of us working together as One United States of America, under God.
Each person is important and valuable on planet earth. Will you choose to spread the love of God?
Until we talk again, Put on God’s Armor and stand firm.
Much love, Nikki
