Proclaiming the gospel and touching lives in practical ways





​​Pray like David


When you are a child of God, God’s enemies are your enemies. It is clear that the enemy can not attack God directly, but he can do it indirectly. However, God still responds to attacks directed to those he loves as if he was directly being attacked himself. As a Father, God loves his children and he will always defend them.

Are you a child of God? If you are, then know for sure that God loves you. Let us take an example of King David. King David loved his children, but iniquity negatively affected his family after just one immoral act. This is still a big issues in families today, but in Christ we can take a better stand against it. In Christ there is forgiveness and it leads to change in life.

King David had enemies who desired to hurt him so bad, but since he was a King, they could do nothing. In order to try to get to you, your enemy will try to attack you in ways you might not expect. For some of you, those who want to hurt you do not stand a chance if they confronted you directly, as such they have tried in subtle ways to instigate enmity between you and your loved ones. They have whispered words that cause your relationship with your loved ones to go sour. For King David, it was his son Absalom. Ahithophel whispered into Absalom’s ear that is why he turned against his father David.

Gods Deliverance


When the people of Israel were in the land of Egypt as slaves, they cried out to God and he delivered them. In Exodus 3:7 the Bible says, “And the Lord said, I have surely seen the affliction of my people which are in Egypt, and have heard their cry by reason of their taskmasters; for I know their sorrows” (KJV). God not only heard their cry; he knew their sorrows. In this situation God took note of their afflictions and come up with a mighty plan of deliverance.

In Psalms 34:19 the Bible says, “Many are the afflictions of the righteous: but the Lord delivereth him out of them all” (KJV). Being a Christian does not mean you do not have to go through difficulties. Afflictions will always be there, but God will deliver you from every one of them. He always delivers his people and he will deliver you whenever you face affliction. The first thing we all need to remember in affliction is that God always delivers people as long as they are in a covenant relationship with him. Yes, God delivers his people from all the afflictions and not just from some of them.

Now, we also have to remember that his presence is important for our deliverance. In Jeremiah 1:19 the word of God that came to Jeremiah the Prophet says, “And they shall fight against thee; but they shall not prevail against thee; for I am with thee, saith the Lord, to deliver thee” (KJV). This Word is still packed with a great promise for deliverance. God will deliver you like he promised Jeremiah. He is the same God who never changes and he knows exactly what you are going through. He says that he is with you to deliver you.
