Thank you so much for posting this articler by Greg Laurie. I and many Christians everywhere have

 

been so concerned over the lack or even acknowledgement of the power. While the scripture is more than

 

clear that we as Christians do not even wrestle with flesh and blood but with powers and principalities

 

(demonic spirits). We have the  beautiful name of Jesus to use in prayer,All power in heaven and in earth

 

are in that Name, that is above every name, in heaven, earth and below the earth. This Name is given to

 

those who serve Jesus as Lord.

 

What I am seeing has disturbed me and so many others as Jesus Name used in faith when we pray for

 

all the political problems we have in our government and for each person whom Jesus loves and died for.

 

Spiritual warfare is to be used according to the scripture by those of us who believe and all of our faith

 

placed in Him, Who is the author and finisher of our faith in     HIM.. We are told not to put our faith in

 

mankind, but rather in God. Not a request here, but a command.

 

I have noticed that some Christians will scream and cry if you even awswer a question they have about

 

some political ideas or politician. I have gotten so that I simply don't    even try to talk to these people.

 

They will not listen or regard even the Word of God, but rather will only regard whoever is their favorite

 

politician or political party or group of that particular day or race. A lof of these same people not of

 

faith at the present time, are no longer meeting together , as we are told to do....FORSAKE NOT THE

 

ASSEMBLING OF YOURSELVES TOGETHER...EVEN MORE SO AS YOU SEE THE DAYS

 

APPROACHING. The great falling away (from the Truth..the assembling of ourselves as beliervers

 

together, has and continues to happen and it is still not seen or accepted.

 

I Know many of you are daily in prayer for those who have turned away of prayer and assembling together.

 

I am joining that prayer and prayers with you.

 

Love this site and love the togetherness we have even if there may sometimes be a little difference in

 

the way certain things are revealed to us by the Spirit.     Keep the praying up . God just loves it so much

 

when we pray for each other.
