The thief does not come except to steal, and to kill, and to destroy. I have come that they may have life, and that they may have it more abundantly. John 10:10

The worst thing about the devil is that after he does everything he can to entice and tempt you; to lure you, to trap you, to use you and defile you; once he has you…. he doesn’t want you anymore. He throws you out and stomps you down, down, down… The pit of pits is where he wants you. He does everything he can to keep you from seeing the light. He does everything he can to steal your family. He does everything possible to kill all your hope. He seeks in all ways to destroy all good and sacred life.

There is hope. There is hope in Jesus. He is our only hope. He is life. He is the breath in our lungs. He is Lord; Lord of all Lord’s. He is King; King of all kings. He is God; He is God above all Gods. He is everything good and perfect and true. Call His name. “Jesus, Jesus, Jesus. We need You Jesus.”

“Heavenly Father, In the perfect and precious name of Jesus I come to You and I seek Your will. I seek Your kingdom Father. I seek Your face. The world is a scary place Lord; my God, and the devil is out of control. I am calling on You and I am calling on You in the name of Jesus, it is time Abba; it is time for You to take Your great power and reign. I rebuke Satan and his evil spirits, I rebuke them, I resist them, I hate them with the perfect hatred. I bind the devil and his wicked attempts to hurt anymore of Your people, he has hurt me and I am done. He has hurt my family, and I am finished. He has divided and devastated Your people and I call on Your Holy name to cast him and his evil ones out of the heavenly places. All the heavenly places; cast them out in the name and by the blood of Jesus. Let not the scepter of wickedness rest on the land allotted to the righteous. Father, let all those who hate Zion be put to shame and turned back. Let them be like grass on the house tops which withers before it grows up. I call on the blood of Jesus to overcome the evil one and I rejoice with all of heaven as his kingdom is destroyed. This is my prayer Lord, my God and I pray this prayer in the mighty name of Jesus, Amen.

Proclaim: The scepter of wickedness shall not rest on the land allotted to the righteous. Let all those who hate Zion be put to shame and turned back; let them be like grass on the house tops which withers before it grows up. I give You thanks, O Lord, God Almighty, the One who is and who was and who is to come, because You have taken Your great power and reigned. Take Your great power and reign. (Repeat 7 times)

May the Lord’s righteousness and His glory ‘rain’ on you this day; may You put God first in all You do; may you put Him back in everything. May you see Him and feel Him everywhere.
