Prayer Focus

Isaiah 41:10- “[F]ear not, for I am with you; be not dismayed, for I am your God; I will strengthen you, I will help you, I will uphold you with my righteous right hand.”

    Negotiations have started to take on a more formalized state as protestors have declared ‘cool down’ periods from marching to allow time for dialog. Town hall meetings are springing up around the nation and people from all walks of life are coming to hear and weigh in on the issues. Whether we believe the key problems are law enforcement or juvenile arrogance or being in the wrong place at the wrong time or just being a member of the minority ,it is evident that there are strongholds deeply planted.
    The primary issues are not just about the low-vibrational conflicts that reign between factions; but what is of real consequence is the spiritual conflict that is at work. We can talk, walk, protest, slander, preach, block roads and throw insults and innuendoes but nothing will happen or change unless and until we pray. This battle is of a spirit nature and there must be a renewed hope and invigorated faith which can only happen through prayer to our Creator.
    Whatever pressing matter is on your plate or on the front burner or on the top of your to-do list, be assured that if it is in alignment with God’s plan for your life – He will strengthen you for the task; provide your resources and uphold you through whatever processes or procedures you must endure for its completion.
    God is faithful and long-suffering. He will not allow you to fail as long as you do not give up or give in. But we must seek his face and live under his grace. He will uphold us with his grace, mercy and power. Give God thanks today (through prayer) for his help and watch him make our tomorrows a reality.
    Every day is a good day; it is up to us to make it a power-packed GREAT day! Don’t be distracted; stay focused on your purpose. Be blessed! Dr. JoAnn
