We battle not against flesh and blood but against …wickedness in high places.
Be a Warrior
Be a prayer warrior
Someone who prays to the Lord and fights battles against the enemy, on their knees. Warriors come between the trouble and God to make intercession on their behalf and for others. Warriors also give thanks to God and they praise Him. As time goes by and the Holy Spirit teaches the Warrior how to pray and what to pray for, a deep, solid relationship grows between the Father God and His child, the Prayer Warrior prince or princess.
One important and major aspect the Warrior must take heed of is to be completely aware of coming into the Holy presence of the true and living God in the name of His Son the Lord Jesus Christ.
He is the only mediator between God and us but as a Warrior, we are His soldier, his person at arms, his lieutenant, we work for Him and depend on Him for guidance.
We battle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities. against powers, against rulers of the darkness of this world, against wickedness in high places. Ephesians 6 verse 12.
If you think there isn’t a spirit world where there is darkness, think again.
We are like David and the world and the cares of this world are our Goliath.

this portion of faith enables us to come with all boldest before His throne of grace.
A Matter of Praying…Part 1
“Prayer is an act that seeks to activate a rapport. A rapport is a close and harmonious relationship where people or groups concerned understand each other’s feelings or ideas and communicate well.”
How could we approach this holy and righteous God when even his name is holy and sacred?
We are nothing but as grasshoppers( Numbers 13:33) before this magnificent Being. From the richest to the poorest He is no respecter of persons “from the sole of the foot even unto the head there is no soundness but wounds and bruises and putrefying sores (Isaiah 1:6). His purity sees us like this. He sees our sinful nature and yet, He still loves us, wants us with Him, and wants to hear our cries.
His compassions fail not and they are renewed each morning (Lamentations 3:22), so much so we can cry and say great is His faithfulness.
This is the Creator, the Holy One who sent His only Son to bridge that gap between Him and his creatures. Jesus paved the way to God and is our intercessor(1 Timothy 2:5). We do not have to go to anyone else but him and inquire.
Jesus said, “ask anything in my name,” (John 14:14). It is beautiful to know that nothing will he withhold. But we must come to Him in faith, believing He is the rewarder of them who trust in Him. Whatever we ask in prayer believing we shall receive. ( Matthew 21:22)
It is this portion of faith that enables us to come with all boldest before His throne of grace.
A place we have no right to be but for only His love and the work at the cross we have that special unction with the Holy One. The unction is the anointing that sets us apart and whereby we can be called Children of God. (1John2:12)
