Making the Enemy Nervous
All of the uprising, the tension, the anger that is rising up here and around the world right now is a demonic reaction to what God is saying and doing. The enemy is nervous. He should be. God has given us “air superiority” over the enemy. He has given us the ability to take spiritual authority over the enemy of the air. Don’t be discouraged by all that’s coming against you, your family, and this nation. Don’t let the enemy over-run you (he wants to). God does care and He wants us to partner with Him in prayer to bring healing, correction, and hope to others, while undoing all the works of the evil one.
“At that time you followed the world’s evil way; you obeyed the ruler of the spiritual powers in space, the spirit who now controls the people who disobey God. God has made us what we are, and in our union with Christ Jesus he has created us for a life of good deeds, which he has already prepared for us to do.” (Ephesians 2:2,10; GNT)
Give Him 15 minutes in prayer:
- News flash! Unsaved people act like people who don’t know God. Ask God to give you His heart for them.
- The enemy is using the lost, borrowing them for his evil plans, and even killing some of them in horrible ways, as they carry out his wicked plans. Do you care? Or, do you judge? Repent, if need be. Weep for those who are trapped in his awful design.
- The best way to stop the evil is to intercede for the culprits to have a powerful introduction to Christ! How else can they escape Satan’s talons?
- Ask God to show you one good deed you can perform today that might lead a wicked person to Christ.
A prayer you can pray:
God, I keep forgetting that those who don’t yet know you think and act very differently than Your people do. They don’t know any better. Some very famous people are trapped by Satan and willingly attack You and Your people. They mercilessly attack our President and other government leaders and gloat when they think they’ve caught them in any misstep. Lord, I want Your heart for them. I intercede for them to know You and to be delivered out of Satan’s control! Show me something I can do today or say today that might soften an unbeliever’s heart and cause them to want to know You. In Jesus’ name, amen.
Today’s decree:
I decree that our union with Christ Jesus has created us for a life of good deeds, which he has already prepared for us to do! We will see many come to Him, as we act like Him toward the lost.
