August 2 Addendum--VICTORY!

August 2 Addendum

Many of the battles we face are not war related, except that there is an on-going war being waged by the forces of the enemy against God and His people and His purposes. That warfare evidences itself in ways that the enemy-strategist plots to use to undermine the faith and effectiveness of the people of God.

God’s arch-foe endeavors to cause the Lord’s prayer-warriors to be so engulfed in their personal battles that they haven’t time to think about praying for the major concerns of salvation for the lost and the setting up of the world stage for the end-times events that loom on the horizon.

The enemy’s strategy involves persecution by unbelievers that reaches an intense degree in lands that are controlled by the force of the evil one. The evil one’s strategy also includes personal attacks that can be against the believer’s physical well-being or emotional stability.

Today, I lift up people of faith in all circumstances where the enemy’s onslaught has come against them! I bind the mischief of the evil one, grind him and his minions to fine powder and scatter them impotent to the wind. I release power into the prayers of the people of Christ!

I command strongholds to topple and captives to be set free. I loose everyone bound in darkness and command that they see the glorious light of Jesus! I command that those who hold believers captive will themselves be set free from the clutches of the evil one so they will become the protectors and defenders of people of faith in Christ.

I pray that those who are bound by sickness and disease and despair will be set free to focus on the beauty of Christ who is boundless in His mercy and in His power. I pray that His power will be released into the lives of believers in a way that exceeds anything they have ever yet known.

I pray shackles will be broken and captives will be set free to love Jesus, to live for Jesus and to extoll the name of Jesus in the beauty of HOLINESS! I pray that when unbelievers look upon people of faith, they will not see the individual; rather, they will see the Lord HIMSELF, standing before them; meeting them at their point of need!
