Memory Verse: Same

Sunday April 18, 2010

Blessings, Friends & Lifers! I pray all is well with you and your family. I pray as you continue to walk in obedience, the blessing of our God will overtake you. We seek to start a series today called "5 Strongholds the Church Must Pull Down". Continue with us this week as God sheds light on a delicate but very important subject.

The dictionary describes a stronghold as a well-fortified place; a fortress. It also defines it as a place that serves as the center of a group of militants or persons holding a controversial viewpoint. My Friends, we know we have authority over the devil, but there are some areas where he has simply dug his heels in the sand and refused to let go. The areas I'm talking about are: Racism, Religion, Finances, Iniquity, and Rebellion. To truly expand the kingdom of God, the church has to come together and focus on the pulling down of these fortresses. For the next few days, we'll highlight each of these items. We pray God will reveal to us what it takes to successfully attack these areas so that you can see growth in your home, ministry, and community. I'm believing God for a clarion call to the nations that we will overtake these strongholds so that the glory of our God can prevail. Pray with us. Study with us. God's going to show up strong!!!

Prayer:
All glory, honor, and praise, be to You, Lord. You're worthy of it all. Let this week be full of Your revelation and power. Let this week open the eyes of Your people. We want to experience Your true power and authority. Open our eyes and our hearts this week. May we be one with You now and forever more...in Jesus' name....Amen.
