Ephesians 6:10–11 10Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord and in the power of His might. 11Put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil.
Key thought for today…
Before we go to battle, we must prepare for battle. Preparation starts with wearing the proper clothing…
Key focus for today…
By placing the armor of God on does not mean the armor fights that battle for us. The armor is only for perception against the enemy. The enemy sees that you have prepared responsibly.
Our prayer emphasis for today…
Many times we do not start praying until the battle has already gotten out of hand. We are starting off by preparing the right way… in prayer. Pray that God will help our church as a whole put on this armor… Pray for our church family to recognize the demonic activity that comes when the evil one attacks.
Your Prayer…
Lord, I pray that you cloth me in the full armor. God I pray that our church family prepares for battle next week. God I lift up ______________ to you today. Lord cloth them in your armor….

Exodus 14:10–14 10When Pharaoh drew near, the people of Israel lifted up their eyes, and behold, the Egyptians were marching after them, and they feared greatly. And the people of Israel cried out to the Lord. 13And Moses said to the people, “Fear not, stand firm, and see the salvation of the Lord, which he will work for you today. For the Egyptians whom you see today, you shall never see again. 14The Lord will fight for you, and you have only to be silent.”
Key Thought for Today…
Sometimes God wants us to keep silent and watch Him work
Key Focus for Today…
God leads us into impossible battles where He can be our warrior and where others will see that He is the one true God.
Our prayer emphasis for today…
Many people think that this is a waste of time. Many think that they don’t need this time in prayer. The reason is they don’t believe God is possible of doing the impossible. Today we pray against the demonic spirit of negativity and discouragement.
Your Prayer…
Father God, we ask you to bind up and plunder any demonic activity that encircles around a negative tongue, a negative thought process, and a discouraging spirit. Bind it up and plunder that stronghold and rebuild inside of them a spirit of encouragement. If they continue to resist, we ask You to remove them from discouraging places and situations.
To be continued tomorrow…

Exodus 14:10–14 10When Pharaoh drew near, the people of Israel lifted up their eyes, and behold, the Egyptians were marching after them, and they feared greatly. And the people of Israel cried out to the Lord. 13And Moses said to the people, “Fear not, stand firm, and see the salvation of the Lord, which he will work for you today. For the Egyptians whom you see today, you shall never see again. 14The Lord will fight for you, and you have only to be silent.”
Key Thought for Today…
What do you do when the enemy is obviously marching after you? Do you think God still knows what is best?
Key Focus for Today…
When the enemy is obviously coming,
the spirit of rejection is two-fold…
a) we feel as God has rejected us
b) we reject God by taking matters
into our own hands
Our prayer emphasis for today…
We pray against the spirit of rejection.
Your Prayer…
Today, Oh God, we approach your throne asking you to disarm principalities and rulers of darkness that have led to many people rejecting your plan for their life. We pray against this spirit and to be broken down. God we ask that people will accept You instead of reject You. We ask that they will come forward during the revival. We pray for a surrendered spirit and claim v’s 14.
PRAYER FOCUS DAY 4

Judges 7:2 2And the Lord said to Gideon, “The people who are with you are too many for Me to give the Midianites into their hands, lest Israel claim glory for itself against Me, saying, ‘My own hand has saved me.’ 4But the Lord said to Gideon, “The people are still too many; bring them down to the water, and I will test them for you there. Then it will be, that of whom I say to you, ‘This one shall go with you,’ the same shall go with you; and of whomever I say to you, ‘This one shall not go with you,’ the same shall not go.”7Then the Lord said to Gideon, “By the three hundred men who lapped I will save you, and deliver the Midianites into your hand. Let all the other people go, every man to his place.”
Key thought for Today…
Sometimes God leads us into battles that we cannot win. He does this where we will rely on His strength.
Key Focus for Today…
We are like Gideon many times… our circle is decreasing and the enemy is still coming. What God could be doing is isolating you from others that could distract you from seeing God work an amazing work in your life.
Your Prayer…
Today we pray against the demonic spirit of inadequacy today. Lord allow us to look beyond the circumstances that seem impossible. Let us be reminded that all things are possible with and through You. Allow us to go into battle completely focused on Your agenda and not the strength and popularity of the enemy. God, do the impossible!

1 Samuel 17:43 So the Philistine said to David, “Am I a dog, that you come to me with sticks?” And the Philistine cursed David by his gods. 46This day the Lord will deliver you into my hand, and I will strike you and take your head from you. And this day I will give the carcasses of the camp of the Philistines to the birds of the air and the wild beasts of the earth, that all the earth may know that there is a God in Israel. 47Then all this assembly shall know that the Lord does not save with sword and spear; for the battle is the Lord’s, and He will give you into our hands.”
Key thought for Today…
Satan turns our battles into spiritual battles
Key Focus for today…
David speaks and walks in confidence because he knows it is a spiritual battle and that God is fighting for him (v’s 46). The God that places us in battle will fight for us.
Our prayer emphasis for today…
Let us pray in confidence today knowing that the enemy has made this a spiritual battle.
Your Prayer…
Lord, let us see the difference in the spiritual battle we face. Give us discernment to know what kind of spirit someone approaches us with. Lord we pray that persons that comes to revival with the wrong spirit, that wrong spirit will leave them and flee the battle field (Cedar Hill) just as the Philistines did.
