The Antidote to Poison

Talking and praying with a young mom the other evening I saw a picture of her and her husband praying over the children.   They were praying dedication, life, purpose and direction over their family.   This family, like many, have felt the destructive power of the enemy.


Our society is inundated with visual temptation and sin.   Many are lied to, talked about and suffer abuse on a daily basis.  Don't be fooled into thinking that this "poison" is reserved for teens and above.  Our smallest babies and young people are being attacked daily by an enemy that wants to simply annihilate them.


I truly believe that one of the most powerful ways we can overcome and reduce the damage caused by this frontal attack is to dilute it with the Word and Prayer.   We need to gather one another, our children and families, on a daily basis, and pray  the Will of God over their and our lives.  We need to stand on the promises.  We need to declare what the Word says.


Father, in the powerful Name of Jesus, we come.  We pray for Your Presence and Your Word to dilute the power of poison that  may have attached itself to us today.  We come against worthless words and accusations, within and without, and cast them down , keeping the Word of God exalted.  
We speak life, freedom and plenty over our children, our church bodies and  ourselves.  We dedicate ourselves  to You and Your services again today.  
Use us as You will Lord and grace us with the ability to stay close to You and help us to remember that we are covered by the Blood of the Lamb..   
You are worthy of all praise and we trust that You who began a good work in us will be faithful to bring it to completion in Jesus' Name!


Blessings!
