It takes the bravest courage to stand in a field where shots are coming from all directions. I know you possess this brave courage soldier. I know you possess the armor of the Almighty God soldier. Christ defeated the enemy already! You are not alone! The body of Christ is with you and we will help you!

Dear Lord, the war of discouragement by the enemy is an optic and tactical strategy to weaken our hope. Lord, we know that faith is the substance of things hoped for & the evidence of things not seen. I ask Lord that you restore hope and strengthen faith. Lord, I ask that you surround and protect people in calm and in distress. Lord, your Word in Ephesians 6:13-14 states, “Wherefore take unto you the whole armor of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all , to stand. Stand therefore, having your loins girt about about with truth, and having on the breastplate of righteousness;” (Holy Bible 1997). Lord, I notice in these verses the words “to withstand, to stand, and stand therefore.” Almighty God in Heaven, I call upon you to grant us and the church the wisdom and strength to withstand, to stand, and to stand therefore! Do it Lord Jesus! Our victory is in you Lord. In Jesus we STAND! In Christ’s name, Amen.
