Saints from time to time we will all find ourselves walking through a heightened level of warfare we'll all find ourselves facing battles we'd rather not face and there is no one exempt from the challenges of life we'll all have to endure and withstand an assault from the enemy sooner or later but I want to remind you of what the word of God tells us concerning the battles of life and concerning spiritual warfare Psalm 18:39 says you armed me with strength for battle you humbled my adversaries before me Isaiah 42:13 says the Lord will March out
like a champion Like a Warrior he will stir up his Zeal with a shout he will raise the battlecry and will triumph over his enemies and finally I want to read Luke 10 verse 17 then the 70 returned with Joy saying Lord even the demons are subject to us in your name now there's something I believe every Christian man and woman listening right now should know and that is you cannot have Victory without Jesus Christ and you cannot have Jesus Christ without having Victory what I mean is that whatever you need it can be found
in his name you you see every name carries significance every name carries weight whether it's for good or for evil however there is one name one name that is above every other name and that is the name of Jesus so when you find yourself walking through a heightened level of warfare Call On The Name of Jesus when you find yourself on the receiving end of an assault from the enemy call on the name of Jesus it's only the name of Jesus that can make a way where there seems to be no way you see Jesus
Christ is The Only Name that can bring life to a dead situation listen you could be outnumbered out matched outsmarted by your enemy but so long as you believe so long as you believe in the name of Jesus you will have power you will have Victory and dear friends I'm aware that there there are many who are listening right now and I know that we're all from different walks of life we're all facing different kinds of battles but I need you to understand that all you need can be found in his name in Revelation 1:8
the Bible says I am the Alpha and the Omega the beginning and the end says the Lord who is and who was and who is to come the almighty that's God saying I am the the beginning I am the end I'm where it all starts and I'm where it all ends now my sister my brother as you're listening you may be driving you might be in your home but wherever you are I encourage you to take a moment right now and praise the name of Jesus Christ call on his name worship His name because all
that we need is in his name you may be facing a test right now you may be facing a trial right now but there is victory in the name of Jesus there is a breakthrough for your situation in the name of Jesus all that you need is in his name the danger for every believer is that we can all easily fall into a web of complacency when it comes to the things of God we can so easily become comfortable that we would rather say a quick prayer for the day than to go and earnestly seek
God daily we can so easily become busy people busy with the day-to-day life busy with our job then our families then our hobbies and very quickly we become too busy for God and a lot of us can justify our busyness there just aren't enough hours in the day oh I have too much on my plate too many responsibilities but people of God hear me we ought to never be so busy that we cannot devote quality time to seek daily personal fellowship with Jesus Christ and so I want to speak to the one who's trying to
improve their prayer life I'm talking to the one who has a desire to grow and build their personal relationship with Jesus Christ to begin with I want to draw your attention to Psalm 5 verse three it says listen to my voice in the morning Lord each morning I bring my request to you and wait expectantly this verse puts a lot of things in perspective and we can almost deconstruct it so that it can help to form a structure for our own lives when it comes to prayer the psalmist Begins by saying listen to my voice
in the morning Lord from this we can understand that David is seeking and searching for God early before he starts his day he's already saying Lord hear me as I pray can this be said of you does the Lord hear your voice in the morning now the second line in Psalm 5:3 in the Amplified translation says in the morning I will prepare a prayer and a sacrifice for you and watch and wait for you to speak to my heart this is the key part for us I believe that this sacrifice that's mentioned it's not in
the literal sense for us but rather it's symbolic you're sacrificing your own Pleasures you're sacrificing your own wants so that God can have the very start of your day you're sacrificing your will your time so that God can have the first fruits of your day you're sacrificing your body's desire to get up and go make breakfast and get on with the day because by waking up to pray you're saying Lord you are undeniably first in my life so I want to encourage you to make it a routine seek God first in the morning have a
heart that says Lord early will I seek you seek God when you're at your best when you're physically rested when you're fully attentive with no distractions and you're fully present in the moment present in mind body and soul and so with this idea of giving God the best of us and the first of us let's go to him together in prayer believing that every day after this day he will get our first and our best now with the mighty name of Jesus in mind let us pray dear God some trust in chariots and some in
horses but we trust in the name of the Lord Our God your name brings Joy your name brings healing and restoration Lord I plead the blood of Jesus Christ over our homes over our hearts and Minds protect us King Jesus keep us from every evil influence that seeks to bind us keep us from every dark force that seeks to pull us into a life of unrighteousness Lord I Thank you for shedding Your Precious Blood so that we would be saved word cannot express our thanks and gratitude to you lord it's because of your goodness it's
because of your kindness It's because of your love that we are able to overcome the enemy your word says in Revelation 12:1 and they overcame him by the blood of the lamb and by the word of their testimony and they did not love their lives to the death Lord I Thank you for For Your Precious Blood on the cross you sacrificed yourself so that we might have life on the cross you sacrificed yourself so that we might be redeemed and empowered I declare today that we have conquered the enemy because of your powerful blood Lord
Jesus we have conquered fear because of your blood Lord Jesus and I declare right now together with each and every person listening that we have conquered the devil in our lives whatever shape or form he tries to attack Us in I declare that we have overcome we are more than conquerors in jesus' name should the devil come in the form of sickness in our bodies we have overcome him in jesus' name should he attack in the form of negativity bitterness and disorder in our families we plead the blood of Jesus Christ to to bring peace
and togetherness in our homes father I pray that whatever unclean thing may be hindering us today would you expose it would you shed light to it and would you destroy it in the name of Jesus the Bible says in Revelation 1:5 and from Jesus Christ the faithful witness the firstborn from the dead and the ruler over the kings of the earth to him who loved us and washed us from our sins in his own blood it's because of your blood Lord Jesus that we are free it's by your blood that we are now Sons and
Daughters who live in Freedom no longer oppressed no longer caged in by strongholds in you King Jesus we have total and complete Freedom Lord this is why we praise you this is why we say that you're awesome you're Majestic you're holy and you're righteous Lord I Thank you for the sacrifice that you made on Calvary thank you for loving us enough to offer your own life so that we may receive eternal life and so I speak the blood of Jesus Christ over our lives wash us clean wash us and remove the stench of sin father
wash over our minds and our bodies so that we may be empowered to live in a manner that pleases you so that we may live free from bondage and oppression at this time lord Jesus I ask that you would make us whole wherever we've been broken wherever we've been bruised or injured as a result of the enemy's attacks make us whole Lord and put us back together with your healing power father I thank you for hearing this prayer it's in the mighty matchless miraculous name of Jesus Christ that I pray and I give you thanks
