Your lifeline to God

But Jesus looked at them and said, “With man this is impossible, but with God all things are possible.”

–Matthew 19:26

As a Christian, your lifeline to God is prayer. It’s how you grow more intimate with God and develop a deeper and more personal relationship with Him. But prayer is also how you face the enemy of your soul head-on with courage and hope! 

God tells us to not be afraid of Satan and his forces. Because as a Christian, you have authority in Jesus Christ who has conquered all the spiritual forces of darkness. When Jesus Christ died on the cross and rose again, He won the victory. And He wants you and me to live in that victory!

How? It starts with prayer… passionate, even presumptuous prayer… to a God who you know can overcome anything. So often we forget to pray boldly, thinking that God can’t do what we are asking. But that is far from the truth, as today’s verse tells us.

Now, it’s important to remember that doesn’t mean we have a blank check to ask God to do anything and everything we want Him to do. There is a powerful connection to God’s Word and prayer. Scripture will guide you and teach you what things you should pray for. And God will always come through in His response based on what His Word says. 

Let me put it this way: There is nothing that lies outside the reach of prayer except that which may lie outside the will of God.

If you are facing a battle with the enemy today, know that God is fighting for you… and your victory is sure in Jesus Christ. You best weapon is prayer. Claim the promises God has for you in His Word, accept the victory, and live a life that exemplifies the power of our great God!

BEAR UP YOUR ARMS IN PRAYER AND CONFRONT THE ENEMY OF YOUR SOUL HEAD-ON
