Thy Word is a lamp unto my feet



He Hits Us Where It Hurts

“I have no greater joy than to hear
that my children walk in truth.”
3rd John 1:4

When Satan wants to hurt you, one of his greatest delights is attacking your children. What could hurt more? I know VERY FEW Christians whose children are walking in the truth. And that’s no accident, that’s the direct intervention of Satan himself against the believer. He hits where it hurts.

Do you make the time to pray for your children? Prayer is the greatest tool we have.

Prayer works.

Prayer changes things.

One of the greatest hindrances to prayer is the enemy’s suggestion, “Look how long you’ve prayed and nothing has happened.” That is deception! Recognize it!

“The effective, fervent prayer
of a righteous man avails MUCH.”
James 5:16

The believer needs to understand that most of the time, there is a long time between the prayer and the answer, and not be discouraged by that. Moses waited 40 years for his promise. Abraham was so discouraged by the length of time passing, that he really messed things up trying to force the answer by doing it himself — and most of us know what a disaster that caused, even to this day.

Keep praying. Pray diligently. Fast and pray.

The answers WILL come, if you persist.

“And let us not grow weary while doing good,
for in due season we shall reap
IF WE DO NOT LOSE HEART.”
Galatians 6:9

Do not lose heart!
