APPROACH THE COURT OF HEAVEN

📖 Isaiah 43:26 
“Put Me in remembrance; let us contend together; state your case, that you may be acquitted.”

The enemy, Satan, relentlessly accuses believers before the Court of Heaven, bringing charges day and night to hinder our prayers and prevent us from fulfilling God’s purpose. He presents our sins and errors as reasons to deny us God’s blessings. However, as believers, it’s crucial to understand how to present our case effectively before the Court of Heaven.

In heaven’s court, the devil’s accusations are like legal arguments aimed at blocking answers to our prayers. But we have a powerful defense: the Word of God. God honors His Word above all else, making it our strongest ally. By standing on God’s Word, we can counter Satan’s attacks. Just as Jesus responded to Satan’s temptations with “it is written,” we too can confidently declare God’s truth.

Therefore, be fervent in prayer, daily presenting your case before God’s throne with His Word. Stand firm, defending your life, family, and all God has entrusted to you. Trust that God is faithful to His Word and will respond. By knowing and applying God’s Word, you’ll overcome Satan’s accusations and walk in the fullness of God’s purpose. Glory to God!

START-UP PRAYER:
Father, in the Name of Jesus, I come before your throne of grace armed with Your word. I declare that every accusation of the enemy against my life is nullified by the blood of Jesus.

PRAYER FOR A NATION
BAHAMAS
Bahamians enjoy religious freedoms, with the majority of the population being Christian.However, Wealth and material things have become extremely important in Bahamian culture and have contributed to a rise in crime – mainly armed robbery and petty theft. Standards of morality have decreased, especially more births out of wedlock and drug use. While the majority of the people claim to be Christian, fewer are committed to the Church, and many churches lack pastoral leadership. The people need spiritual guidance and encouragement to continue the Lord’s work and to minister to the younger generation and the Haitian refugees.
