Pray for Families (The Battle for Truth)

Greetings Prayer Warriors, 


The family is the building block of society. If you are trying to destroy society, (and Satan and his multitude of minions are) guess what you would target? The family! But how slow and imperceptible the progress was and is, cloaked in enticing words of love and freedom.  First, let’s introduce birth control and then let’s separate the procreative act from the marriage. Free love! Then let’s create “no-fault” easy divorce. Freedom! Then let’s minimize the role of the stay-at-home mother, and drive her into the workforce. Financial freedom! Then let’s redefine what’s considered a family. Any group!  Then allow the government to educate and form the minds of your children. Free childcare! Then let’s redefine what constitutes a marriage. Love is love! And this list goes on, but it only gets more depressing from here! 


In the evening you say, ‘Tomorrow will be fair, for the sky is red’; and, in the morning, ‘Today will be stormy, for the sky is red and threatening.’ You know how to judge the appearance of the sky, but you cannot judge the signs of the times. Matthew 16:2-3


True love and true freedom are only found in Christ. Anything else is false.


For freedom Christ set us free; so stand firm and do not submit again to the yoke of slavery. Galatians 5:1


Is there any doubt in your mind why you must pray without ceasing? We are in a war that is targeted at marriage, family, and control of your children! Don’t be enslaved by the false promises of the Evil One. This is your wake-up call in case you have hit the snooze button too many times!! Pray that you will not be deceived. Ask the Lord for ears to hear and eyes to see what is true.  


Jesus then said to those Jews who believed in him, “If you remain in my word, you will truly be my disciples, and you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free. John 8:31-32


Lord, these are very confusing times where we are often guided by our own uncertainty, and fear of losing our creature comforts, our status, our wealth, our recognition. We implore thy grace that we may only be deferential to you. Help us to let go of our false security and belief that we are in control. Help us to surrender completely to you. Protect our families until we each find the path that leads us to you. Be our North Star that reminds us of your constant presence, your unwavering love, and your continually beckoning. Holy Spirit, be our tailwind that moves us closer to God. Jesus we trust in you, lead us to truth. Hear our prayers! Amen. 


Peace, Joy, and Love, 

Janet


Truth and hope. Everyone needs it, so pass it on!
