In many of my blog posts, I have covered the topics of breaking curses and ending sinful legacies. Today, we will focus on rebuilding ancient walls of spiritual protection. In order to kill, steal and destroy, the enemy has to tear down our spiritual defenses. When I was in high school, my atheist friend did …
21 Days of Fasting and Prayer for our Children and Grandchildren -Day 13 Don’t Grow Weary
There are some prayer requests that you pray over and over, waiting for an answer. That answer seems so far away - almost impossible. The enemy taunts, "Where is your God?!" The enemy laughs and mocks. You look around and things don't look much differently. This part of the prayer process feels like the middle …
21 Days of Fasting and Prayer – Day 12 Do You Hear Me?
Did you know there is a time when God will not see or respond to your fast? What does the scripture say about this? Let's read in Isaiah 58. True Fasting “Shout it aloud, do not hold back. Raise your voice like a trumpet. Declare to my people their rebellion and to the descendants of …

21 Days of Fasting and Prayer for Children and Grandchildren – Day 6 Walking on Water
When asking God for miracles, we need to keep our eyes fixed on Jesus. Why is it important to remember this? Because, we generally only need miracles when we are in an epic life-storm. In a storm, the sky is dark, the wind is howling, lightening is flashing, and waves are crashing. In other words, …
21 Days of Fasting and Prayer for Children and Grandchildren – Day 2
When Daniel prayed and fasted for 21 days, he refrained from choice foods and wine. This prayer set into motion things in the spirit realm that were not resolved until the end of the 21 days of fasting. Seeking the Lord in spiritual battle for someone's soul can require patiently waiting on the Lord by faith.
Is This How We Pray for Others?
I am in the middle of writing a bible study on Colossians. I have been studying Paul's prayer for the Colossians. The first sentence of his prayer says it all — “For this reason, since the day we heard about you, we have not stopped praying for you...." Okay. So, Paul first hears about the …
Give Me Self-discipline, Lord!
A well quoted verse is 2 Timothy 1:7. The well known part of the verse is this: "For God has not given us a spirit of fear!" I have quoted this to myself and others for years — even decades. But, today it came to me with fresh eyes and revelation. Let's look at the …
Judge Not? What Did Jesus Mean?
No one likes that feeling of being judged. It feels terrible to know that someone doesn't like you based on a decision or even just based on hearsay and gossip. Just not wanting to be judged is enough to make me not want to make anyone else feel that way! But, what did Jesus actually mean by judge not, lest you be judged? Well, as with anything we hear anyone say, we need to take it within the context of what he was saying at the time, as well as with what he taught consistently throughout his ministry. We also need to read it in the context of the full counsel of the Word of God.
40 Days of Prayer and Fasting – Day 39 – Stay the Course- Finding Truth in the Middle of Chaos
Paul tells the people that the rapture or the catching away of the church will not happen until the rebellion occurs and the Man of Lawlessness is revealed. I believe we have been in the middle of a the great falling away for several years now. Left and right people are experiencing what they call "deconstruction of faith." Soon, I believe we will see the unveiling of the Man of Lawlessness. The church will see it.
