Calling all prayer warriors...

I know that many of you pray for us a lot, every day, maybe even several times throughout the day. Thank you so much for your faithfulness in prayer for us and the work that God is doing here. God is on the move and we are so thankful!! 

As we see God piercing the darkness, bringing Satan's deception and bondage to the light, working to bring individuals to freedom, and teaching them to fight, we see Satan and his demons fighting fiercely to maintain their ground. We have witnessed their strength and at the same time their weakness and have experienced the power of our All-powerful God.

Right now, I just want to ask for your specific prayers. We are confident of the victory that Christ has promised, but we need continued (and/or additional) prayer support for the battles that we are currently facing. 

Please pray... (and for whatever else the Spirit would bring to mind):

-for God's protection for all involved, that He would send His mighty angels to protect and fight in these battles.

-that Christ would manifest Himself in power and Truth and that Satan's deception would be laid bare.

-for freedom for each and every captive and the breaking of every yoke and bond of wickedness. 

-that communication between Satan and his demons would be cut off and that the demons would be confused and that their hold on those involved would be weakened.

-for wisdom and revelation for staff and those in spiritual authority.

-against discouragement, division, distraction, and deception; rather for encouragement, unity, focus on Christ, and Truth.

-for strength for the battle, stronger faith, endurance, grace, peace, and a clear sense of the Holy Spirit's direction/His still, small voice.

-that God's purposes would be accomplished and that it would be a clear testimony to all that our Almighty God is the only, one True God, the One who reigns above all, the Alpha and Omega, the great I AM...

-that in all things the name of Jesus Christ would be lifted high.

The LORD is my light and my salvation; whom shall I fear? the LORD is the strength of my life; of whom shall I be afraid? When the wicked, even mine enemies and my foes, came upon me to eat up my flesh, they stumbled and fell. Though an host should encamp against me, my heart shall not fear: though war should rise against me, in this will I be confident. Psalm 27:1-3

Please pray

You probably all know that back about 5 months, we sent out a request for prayer and fasting for the spiritual battle that we are in here in Magdalena. I just want to thank all of those who have prayed and fasted for our battle and ask you to please continue. Satan is intent on destroying all that God is doing but we know that Satan is no match for his Creator. Please pray that that would be clearly shown here--that God would clearly show His power over Satan. Please pray that Satan's plans would be destroyed and that ground would be recovered for Christ, in our kids' lives, in the lives of those who come to church, in our community... We trust that God in His sovereignty will protect us in this battle and that He will only allow what He knows will further His work, draw us closer to Him, and teach us to war.

Thank you for praying. Lives are being changed by your prayers!
