EMPOWERING LIVES WITH PURPOSE:

God has a plan for you, but someone wants to thwart that plan! There is a way you can combat the tactics of the one who tries to mislead you every day. Are you ready?

The first plan is obvious! Go to God. When you know that things are going array and somethings dragging you down, God can remove the stinger if you are communicating with Him. When you pray, you get what God can do!

“Devote yourselves to prayer….”  (Colossians 4:2)

Being devoted means wholeheartedly, not half-hearted. It means to continually and steadfastly pray without ceasing. We need more than a prayer list; we need a prayer life! 

We must take prayer seriously and not casually.

It’s often minor setbacks that take us from hearing God. Practice discipline to make God’s presence something you long to be in each day.

I crave it! I ask for it! I shudder to think if I leave Him out of my days where I’d be right now! I pray the same for you! As Paul in the Bible says, “I consider everything I once treasured to be insignificant as rubbish.” I think how my priorities have now shifted to be with God, always- everywhere I go!”

It’s only after much training can you combat what the enemy tries to steal from you each day. Train to be in God’s presence.
