I learnt about the real power of prayer today, from this amazing short clip of an interview with War Room's Priscilla Shire.
When we have an issue we need to overcome, or an obstacle standing in our life's way, we tend to opt for physical solutions, because they are the ones we know how to handle/utilise most effectively.
"However, if we are always targeting what we can see, and never get round to the undercurrent of what we can't see, then we'll never have any lasting change. Because that undercurrent will still always be effective," Priscilla Shire explains.
Here's the absolute truth: For every visible, physical event that we see happen in our lives or around us - positive or negative - there is a spiritual counterpart that we cannot see.
There is a VERY REAL ENEMY, who wants us to focus our attention on everything else apart from the real target - HIM. In our culture, homes, churches, workplaces, we are under a very real threat.
So, we NEED to shift our attention from things in the physical, which we can see, to fighting the real enemy - the devil. The fact that he is invisible doesn't mean he's not actively working against us - every day. Not to scare you, but it's time we stop allowing things to overtake and overcome us, and realise that we have incredible power to defeat the enemy, THROUGH the power of Jesus Christ.
The solution, guys? PRAYER. It hits him where it really hurts!
I'm ready to fight. Are you?
