I hear so many Christians talking about the war on the family, but I have yet to see actions put into place to serve in this war. Isn’t it our responsibility to take action against the enemy and his minions. The ones running unchecked in our lives, causing further brokenness, further divides, further anger, hate and distrust. Why isn’t anyone speaking about the Armor Of God when they speak of war on the family. Where are the prayer warriors that should be offering their time, prayers and wisdom to those families suffering?

Spiritual war excites me. As a prayer warrior it should  because it is my call to action. Just as Batman gets the bat signal when Gotham needs him, so we get the conviction of the Holy Spirit when we are needed to serve God in a specific place, time or manner. Why aren’t we heeding the call to GO?

Put on the Armor Of God, gather your family and pray. Pray until the issues are brought to the surface, pray until you all break. Pray until only the truth remains. It will take more than a day, more than a month, but every moment put into it God will honor and shed His blessings and light.

I chose this topic for the simple fact that I am already at war with the enemy concerning my own family. For too long I ran from the issues they presented. I shunned them so to speak so I didn’t have to deal with them. I was wrong. I abandoned my family when they needed my prayers, my love, my example of God. I am not proud to admit any of this, but owning it allows me to move forward in God’s will. I have decided enough is enough. By God’s leading, power, love and compassion I am having a family meeting this Saturday. If the devil wants to destroy my family, he is in for a fight. He’s gotten away with so much for so long, but now he faces me. Through God and His strength I’m going to put the devil down. As believers we need to remember the enemy fears us. Especially when he knows what we are capable of. When the power of God is flowing through us it is not enough to just let it flow, we need to use that power to put the enemy in his place. To stand up and say ENOUGH. You have no place in my life. You have NO power over me. Get thee behind me, Satan. Declare it and just because we don’t see it, I will remind you that he runs without looking back.

It isn’t an easy road, but my family is worth fighting for and I’m going to fight. Half Irish, half German and ALL God’s daughter guarantees this battle is WON. I don’t base the victory on my Irish-German heritage, but on God. Let me repeat it, MY FAMILY IS WORTH FIGHTING FOR. Decide right now if your family is worth fighting for. If your family has already won their battle, ask God to lead you to another family that could use your prayer. Use your example. If there is a war on the family, then where are the warriors?
