DAILY DEVOTIONAL    SATURDAY OCTOBER 23, 2004
(Deuteronomy 28:7)

***A CALL TO PRAYER!  In 2000, Liveprayer mobilized over 1.5 million people
to pray for the elections and that God would allow to rise to power men and
women who would follow His heart.  Over 3 million prayed and fasted 40 days
for our nation and its leaders earlier this year.  I am calling on everyone
who is part of the Liveprayer family to pray and fast as led during these
next two weeks that God will bring men and women into office who will uphold
Biblical standards as they lead our nation.  May we repent of our gross
wickedness, turn from our sins, and once again turn back to God before He
completely removes His hand of blessing from our land and we suffer His
wrath.


Defeating the enemies you face in your life today.  I love the great promise
in God's Word in Deuteronomy 28:7 that tells us God will allow our enemies
to be defeated, and how they will come at us from one direction, but flee in
seven!  Do you need to hear that promise today?  Do you need the assurance
that your enemies will be defeated and flee from you?  My friend, we ALL
need that promise today since every person reading this Devotional is
fighting some kind of enemy in their life this very moment.

For some of you, your enemy may be finances, for others it may be a health
issue.  For some of you, the enemy you are fighting today may be some sort
of addiction, for others it may be dealing with the loss of someone you
loved.  For some of you, your enemy may be a problem in your marriage or
close relationship, for others it may be the need for a job.  For some of
you, your enemy may be people who are coming against you at home, at work,
or at school, for others it may be a legal problem.  THE FACT IS, everyone
that is reading this is fighting SOME enemy in your life today.

It would have been easy today to deal with some of the larger issues facing
us as a nation and those who know Christ as their Savior.  The war in Iraq,
the upcoming elections, and many other
important issues.  But my focus today is on YOU and the enemies you face in
your life today.  We all need to be aware of,  and doing our part in the
larger battles we fight together, but I know for many of you, the most
important thing happening is NOT what is on the news, but the enemies you
are dealing with in your life this very moment.

I want you to know that you are not fighting your enemies alone today.  The
Bible tells us that the "battle is the Lord's!"  WOW!  Never forget for a
moment that you have God, the Creator of the heavens and the earth fighting
for YOU today!  Also, I am here praying for you, believing God for victory
over whatever enemies you are facing in your life.  So my word for you today
is to rise up, fight in the strength God will give you, and know that your
enemies WILL BE DEFEATED AND FLEE FROM YOU, not in one direction, but in
seven!!!!!

I love you and care about you so much.  Jesus Christ died on a cross 2,000
years ago so that you could live TODAY in victory.  That is why if you put
your faith and trust in Jesus, you not only have the assurance of victory
over death, but you have the assurance of victory over your enemies in this
life as well!   Jesus told His disciples that in this world they would have
tribulation, but to be of good cheer because HE HAD OVERCOME THIS WORLD!
What that means for you is that He has already defeated your enemies.  No
matter what the enemies in your life today may be, Christ has already
assured you of victory!

I will be praying for you.  The Holy Spirit told me today that so many of
you simply needed a word of encouragement.  You needed to be reminded that
God has promised you victory.  Instead of going through this day with your
shoulders slumped, your head down, looking like someone that has lost, you
need to stick your chest out, walk boldly and confidently forward, because
you have already won the victory..YOUR ENEMIES HAVE ALREADY BEEN
DEFEATED!!!!


In His love and service,
