• “By confessing sin we gather strength to resist it; thereby the enemy of our souls is foiled, the conscience is kept tender, the heart is sanctified, and the blood of Jesus becomes increasingly precious. Let us constantly flee to the cleansing fountain!” – Mary Winslow

Battle During Prayer by Nancy Leigh DeMoss 08/31/11

Nancy Leigh DeMoss: Is there something you’ve been praying for, for a long time?

“When will my son admit he needs help? It’s been so long.”

Nancy: The Bible tells us that, as we pray, there’s a spiritual battle going on against the forces of wickedness. We can see this in the story of Daniel. As he began to fast and pray one time, an angel was sent to him. But for twenty-one days, the messenger was resisted by fallen angels. After a great battle, he finally arrived to give Daniel the answer.

We can’t fully understand all that goes on in the spiritual realm, but we do know that we need to persevere in prayer. Maybe you’ve been praying, not for twenty-one days, but for twenty-one years. Don’t give up! You have no idea what God is doing behind the scenes nor when He will finally send the answer.

  • “We say, then, to anyone who is under trial, give Him time to steep the soul in His eternal truth. Go into the open air, look up into the depths of the sky, or out upon the wideness of the sea, or on the strength of the hills that is His also; or, if bound in the body, go forth in the spirit; spirit is not bound. Give Him time and, as surely as dawn follows night, there will break upon the heart a sense of certainty that cannot be shaken.” – Amy Carmichael

Verse of the Day

[The Humbled and Exalted Christ] Let this mind be in you which was also in Christ Jesus, who, being in the form of God, did not consider it robbery to be equal with God, but made Himself of no reputation, taking the form of a bondservant, and coming in the likeness of men. And being found in appearance as a man, He humbled Himself and became obedient to the point of death, even the death of the cross. — Philippians 2:5-8 (NKJV)
