How To Make The Devil Leave

by

There is only one way that we can make the devil leave us. It is to stay in the light of Jesus. Then can we resist temptation.

Today’s Prayer (11/14/2020)

by
Daily Prayer:
Oh lord, I pray that people will remember that we are called to put on the whole armor of God. We can’t be true believers and also be found living for our fleshly desires instead of You. This is like saying that people love their sin, like pornography, but still want to go church on the weekends. Unfortunately, people need to make a choice today. What side are they really on? For if we chose to follow You, then we would be built up in Your armor at all times and in all places. We would no longer be found in addiction, for You would be guiding our lives. We would be baptized into newness of life. So, Lord, I pray that You will raise up warriors in Your kingdom. People who are truly kingdom people and not just bystanders. Those who love You in their words and deeds. That our works will show forth because of our faith in You. We know that we are not saved through our works, but that our works are the fruits of our salvation. Help us, oh Lord. We know that we cannot do any good thing on our own part, so we need the Holy Spirit to strive within us. May we remember the importance of reading the Bible daily, along with praying often. Only through this can people be drawn to love for You. So much so as to choosing good Christian friends to be around. To limit their time on their phones, tablets, TV, and computers, so that there is ample time for You. Lord, as Christians, we don’t just desire to put You first, but we do so every minute of every day. We love You more than anything else. Our treasures are found in You and not this world. This world can take us down by way of sickness, persecution, financial issues, and death, but if we are saved, then we are happy. You make us happy and joyful above all else. I love You, God. Amen.

Ephesians 6:10-12

by

Ephesians 6:10-12 (KJV)
10 Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord, and in the power of his might.
11 Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil.
12 For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.

The Armor Of God

There is only one way we can win the battle against temptation. It is through the armor of God in our lives.

Revelation 3:14-18

by

Revelation 3:14-18 (KJV)
14 And unto the angel of the church of the Laodiceans write; These things saith the Amen, the faithful and true witness, the beginning of the creation of God;
15 I know thy works, that thou art neither cold nor hot: I would thou wert cold or hot.
16 So then because thou art lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I will spue thee out of my mouth.
17 Because thou sayest, I am rich, and increased with goods, and have need of nothing; and knowest not that thou art wretched, and miserable, and poor, and blind, and naked:
18 I counsel thee to buy of me gold tried in the fire, that thou mayest be rich; and white raiment, that thou mayest be clothed, and that the shame of thy nakedness do not appear; and anoint thine eyes with eyesalve, that thou mayest see.

Today’s Prayer (11/13/2020)

by
Daily Prayer:
Lord, I pray that we will become more selfless and less selfish. That we will be more willing to give than to receive. I admit that I am a sinner without Your presence in my life. Only when You are near can I resist temptation and do Your will instead. Without You my flesh is weak and I cannot help but fall into transgression and sin. Therefore, do I cling to You every hour and every minute of each day. I do not wish to grieve the Holy Spirit again but be led safely in this darkened world. I need Your light to guide me to safety, not paths that appear to be good on the outside. For all paths that don’t lead to You are filthy and therefore, make our lives filthy also. Oh, how tarnished our lives become when we have distanced ourselves from Your presence. I know what this is like and I cannot help but fall into past addictions. Satan sees that I am weak and goes at me with force that I might fall. Lord, I have seen what willful sins do to a person and am sorry. I am so shameful and guilty, while not knowing how to gain Your respect again. It is like I betrayed my best friend and have no idea how to restore the relationship I once had. Yes, God, I am lost without You. But it is so worth it when I fall down on my knees in all my confessions. I admit that I have wronged You and are not worthy of Your forgiveness. But then You run to me with open arms and I am not alone anymore. Your arms of mercy do come when I least expect it. Thank You for saving a wretch like me. I need You in my life, God. Without You, I am lost, just like anyone else in this world. So take hold of my life like never before. Lead me on Your righteous and holy path. I believe in You. I love You. Amen.

Don’t be found with the lukewarm Christians. These people appear to be on God’s side but are filthy on the inside and unsaved.

Today’s Prayer (11/12/2020)

by
Daily Prayer:
Oh Lord, I come to You in worship and praise. I exalt Your great Name, Jesus. Thank You for coming into my life and for forgiving me a sinner. I was so far from You, but still, You had compassion upon me. Though my flesh is weak, You have made me strong. In my temptations, You built me up in Your armor, that I might fight against the enemy. I will no longer stand idly by while Satan has his way in me, but fight each day, each hour, and every minute for Your cause. No longer do I wish to grieve the Holy Spirit, for I only want to be in Your presence God. I want more of You and less of me. Have Your way in my life. Let Your will be done in everything I say and do. If I say and do anything, may it be for Your kingdom and not for my own self. And Lord, thank You for my family. Thank You for drawing us near each night in Bible study and prayer. We have grown in the Spirit as a family and long for Your coming. Yes, Jesus, we can’t wait to be raised up to be with You in the clouds. You are our God and to declare Your great Name brings me great joy. What a day it will be to be with You on this new earth and new heaven. Thank You for preparing a place for every believer. We are not worthy to be called Your sons and daughters, but because of Your mercy, we are drawn into Your fold. As adopted children, we give You thanks this day and forever. Keep our paths straight. Help us to walk in Your holiness and righteousness. Pierce our hearts to forgo every sinful way, in order to follow You completely. I love You, Lord. Amen.

Revelation 21:1-5

by

Revelation 21:1-5 (KJV)
1 And I saw a new heaven and a new earth: for the first heaven and the first earth were passed away; and there was no more sea.
2 And I John saw the holy city, new Jerusalem, coming down from God out of heaven, prepared as a bride adorned for her husband.
3 And I heard a great voice out of heaven saying, Behold, the tabernacle of God is with men, and he will dwell with them, and they shall be his people, and God himself shall be with them, and be their God.
4 And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain: for the former things are passed away.
5 And he that sat upon the throne said, Behold, I make all things new. And he said unto me, Write: for these words are true and faithful.

Today’s Prayer (11/11/2020)

by
Daily Prayer:
Oh Lord, I pray for more salvations from all around the globe. That people will begin to call upon Your Name and believe in You unto salvation. There is salvation only through one Name under heaven and that is through You, Jesus. May people begin to grasp that fact and take hold of You, God. We can do all things only if You are leading us in this life. Otherwise, things will become a strain, of which we cannot muster up enough strength on our own to bear it. There are way too many burdens that are on people’s shoulders right now, which is impossible for them to bear on their own. So I pray that they will become humble enough like Mary was, and say, “be it unto me according to thy word”. (Luke 1:38) Then, could You begin to use many more people in the service of Your kingdom. I am so grateful, God, that You did come into the world, in order to save us from our sins. You came from the lineage of David and are the ruler of Israel and all mankind. One day, every person will have to give an account to You, come judgment day, and I pray that more people will be ready. Surely, You came down in order to also show us the right way to live our lives. To not live for the world, but for the building up of Your kingdom instead. This might be a lot to ask of from many people, for they are oh so enamored with their own lives. People get so busy that the time they spend with You is minimal. And even their lifestyle more resembles the world, then as a born again Christian. So I pray that You will awaken people up to righteousness and holiness. That people will begin to see Your light and walk in it also. To confess their sins, that You may change them from the inside out. I love You, God. I believe in You. Amen.

Today’s Prayer (11/10/2020)

by
Daily Prayer:
Oh Lord, I pray that people will begin to fear You. That they will not stop Your creation, but allow it to come forth freely. That people will think twice before they associate with those who are pro-choice. This type of thinking leads to more abortions, which is so wrong. I hope that every Christian will come to an understanding of how evil abortion really is. That they will no longer be for this movement, but stand for what is right in saving unborn babies. Lord, I wish I could tell everyone about Your amazing creation and how we were created in Your image. How You formed every person who is about to be born in the mother’s womb. And if You have had a hand in this, why would anyone want to stop it? I know I do not wish to. How beautiful is every baby that is born? And this can only be the case because You were involved in creating them. Thank You, God. Thank You, Jesus. I glorify Your Name. Lord, You made us all so perfectly. I am so grateful for my two beautiful daughters. I don’t know where I would be without them and my wife who carried them full term. Thank You for instilling into my wife, good and moral instincts to not kill. You helped her realize how precious babies really are. Even the unborn is no different than the baby that is born. They are all the same but at different stages of their development. This is so true, for You were involved with every part of that stage. Surely, I can’t thank You enough for forming my children before they were born. I owe everything to You, God. Thank You for my family, my brothers, my sisters, parents, aunts, uncles, and cousins. We all came out of our mother’s womb just as You planned it. Thank You. I love You, Lord. Amen.

14 I will praise thee; for I am fearfully and wonderfully made: marvellous are thy works; and that my soul knoweth right well.
15 My substance was not hid from thee, when I was made in secret, and curiously wrought in the lowest parts of the earth.

Today’s Prayer (11/09/2020)

by
Daily Prayer:
Oh Lord, I pray that people will be watchful and ready for the things to come. That they will not give in to whatever the media, or even the president, is saying is necessary for us but be seeking You to know what is right and what is wrong. As I know now, this pandemic is causing many people to be fearful to the point of wanting a vaccination, in order for it to end. And if people would simply come unto You in prayer, then that fear would be put at rest. Surely, You are still our healer in these times of unrest. People can come at us with things that appear to be good, but if You are not for it, then I am not either. What You desire is most important for my life and not what I think is right. If my knowledge is wrong, please correct me as soon as possible, God. My desires are to be conformed under Your perfect will and not be found on the side of the enemy. Lord, help people to fight for what is right and run from what is evil. If this vaccine is the first step of the mark of the beast, I pray that people will stay far away from this vaccine. It may cause them to lose some abilities they once had in society, but it will be worth it. I would rather not get it and also be one that doesn’t get the mark either because of it. I would rather die faithful unto You and not gain any pleasures of this world because of some mark. All I desire are Your treasures that come from heaven. People can take everything away from me, but if I still have You I am happy. My joy comes from You and not this world. You have placed me on solid ground and I am loved because of it. Thank You, Jesus. I love You, God. Amen.

by
Daily Prayer:
Holy Father, I love You and give You honor this day and forever. I love to call upon Your Name and worship You. You are the Almighty God, Father, and I cannot get enough of Your presence. Thank You for sending Jesus, Your only begotten Son, into this world. Because of Jesus, our Lord, the payment of sins is now in place for us all. I am grateful that He took upon Himself my sins, that I might be forgiven. What a great God You are. Lord, I know that Jesus is alive, for His fire is burning in my heart. He has made Himself known to me, that I might be a witness for You to all the world. This is not an inconvenience for me, but a great honor to become Your messenger. It is my prayer, God, that people I reach will have the heart to listen to You. That their ears will be opened to receive the understanding that the Spirit of God has for their lives. I am only Your mouthpiece, but without the Spirit speaking truth to them, their conversion will never happen. Therefore, I rely on You, God! I pray that You will lead me by the hand in what I should be doing each day and every hour. That what I speak to people will not be of myself, but what is from You alone. Give me wisdom, oh Lord. Help me to walk in Your ways, that Your light will shine round about me and into other people’s lives. I only desire to be Your instrument for righteousness and to spread peace upon this earth. So help me along the way. Help me to stay healthy also, that sickness will not stop me from doing what You have called me in Your kingdom. I believe in You. You are our healer and I trust in You! I love You! I give You praise! Amen.

Daily Prayer:
Oh Lord, I pray that people will understand the importance of the cross. That they will come to a realization of all that You did for us, Jesus, and begin to praise Your holy Name. How often do people accept You into their lives, but it often only lasts a day. If they just comprehend all that You did for us while on the cross, they would give their whole life to follow You. People would fall down upon their knees in reverence, for You were pained for our transgressions. And the very fact that You did this for me, means everything. I now know that I have a God that truly loves me, which is You, Lord. You have not forsaken us, but gave us all a pathway to follow. My salvation is secure, for You are in my life now. I was once dead, but You gave me a new life. I was deaf, but I can hear from You now. I could not see the importance of the cross, but now I can see and it is the power of God in me. It is my prayer that more people will come unto You, Jesus, for salvation. That people will no longer stand idly by while others are saved but run to You. It is when we call upon Your Name is when mercy is available. I am so grateful for Your grace, God. How could You forgive a wretch like me? I will never understand why You still saw potential in me. I was so far gone into a life of sin, but You came and rescued me. Thank You, Lord. I owe everything that I am to You. You are the reason why I live and breathe in this life. Without You I am nothing. So come into my life every hour. Come and stay awhile and sup with me and my family. We love You and honor You. I give You great glory and praise. Amen.
