21 Days of Fasting and Prayer for Our Children and Grandchildren – Day 7 Shout! For the Lord has Given You the City!
Mighty fortresses seem impenetrable. Everyone who traveled past the city of Jericho could see how tightly shut up the city was. Jericho was the fortress of safety for Canaan.

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.

21 Days of Fasting and Prayer for our Children and Grandchildren – Day 3
In a time where people love to mock "thoughts and prayers" as inaction against evil, we must remember that prayer is the greatest action we can take. “John Knox prayed, and the results caused Queen Mary to say that she feared the prayers of John Knox more than she feared all the armies of Scotland. John Wesley prayed, and revival came to England, sparing that nation the horrors of the French Revolution. Jonathan Edwards prayed, and revival spread throughout the American colonies. History has been changed time after time because of prayer. I tell you, history could be changed again if people went to their knees in believing prayer. Even when times are bleak and the world scorns God, He still works through the prayers of His people. Pray today for revival in your nation, and around the world.” ― Billy Graham, Hope for Each Day: Words of Wisdom and Faith

This 21 day fast will be dedicated to God's protection and deliverance of our children and grandchildren. In scripture, we can see a pattern of the enemy's hatred for our children. Satan comes to kill, steal and destroy the next generation spiritually, emotionally, mentally and physically. God's heart is for our children and grandchildren is to walk with him and to know him. God wants our children to stand in victory and to be wholly devoted to him.

Your initial thoughts may be dreams of the exciting and creative possibilities. You may imagine the end results. Perhaps you are contemplating the new beautiful space you will entertain in, …
How Much is Truth Worth?
This excerpt is from The Puritan Classic The Christian in Complete Armour Volume 2 by William Gurnall We have the truth at a cheap rate now; but how soon the market may rise we do not know. Truth is not always available at the same market price. We must buy it at any cost but …
40 Days of Prayer and Fasting – Day 26 – Here I Am, Lord
Living in times where the fabric of our nation is unraveling, I frequently go to places of self-reflection in prayer. Clearly, the Lord has lifted his hand of protection from our land. “Lord, I know the big things that displease you- things like abortion, greed and perversions. (And this is in the church.) But, what …
