My God is Stronger!

Last Sunday while sitting in church I felt the need to cover my kid's school in prayer. I didn't really know why... so I ignored it. (Shame on me!)
Throughout the week it became very clear to me why God wanted me to pray over the school. Our youth are being attacked by the enemy in ways that I couldn't even fathom when I was a kid. He is using cliques to divide and conquer. Pitting friends against each other. Using computers and cell phones as an avenue to expose them to moral filth. All of this came to a head in the Middle School this week. It was felt by the students, parents and church leadership.

At a leadership meeting on Saturday I was talking to a wonderful prayer warrior friend of mine. She mentioned to me that she was going to start praying outside the school. I told her about me ignoring God last weekend, we both decided that after church this week we were going to meet in the middle school wing of the school to pray for the kids. (This would be the benefit of going to church IN my kid's school)

Fast forward to church today...
Following service we geared up in the full armor of God and went to pray. The weight of the enemy was heavy! I have honestly NEVER been in a situation like that before. But guess what?! MY GOD IS STRONGER! And if it takes me praying at that school every day for a year you better believe that is what I will do! My kids go to that school and the kids who I have come to love in the youth group go to that school! These are MY kids... GOD'S kids... Satan will not win this one... BRING IT ON! I can handle it...

Stay tuned...


Don't let anyone look down on you because you are young, but set an example for the believers in speech, in life, in love, in faith and in purity.
1 Timothy 4:12
