The more I walk with God, the more I realize that every day it’s not so much about what we do or don’t do, but it’s about that personal relationship. It is about a heart connection. How can you have a relationship with someone that you never talked to?

It’s like having a light bulb. And then it’s screwed into a lamp and the lamps plugged in the wall. When the switch is turned on, the power can get to the light bulb. This produces light. Without the power source, there is no light.

There is not going to be any light if we are not plugged into the power source, our relationship with Jesus Christ. We are told to let our light shine. It stands to reason that we stay connected to God.  But if we’re not connected to God and we’re not connected to that power, we will have no light.

A poor prayer life equals a poor connection.  I like to pray first thing as soon as my eyes open up. I kind of hit the snooze button, and lying in my bed, I just kind of lay there and talked to God. Thank you for what he’s done and for allowing me to see another day for the many blessings that he’s given me. Then I pray for the people that are on my heart. It starts with the day off better.

I don’t really have a set time to pray. I just kind of pray here and there all day long. But before I go to bed at night, that’s the last thing I do before I crawl in bed is thank God and pray and ask him to help all those that are lost to be saved.  I pray for those that are bound by human trafficking that God will make a way of escape for them, whether it be an unlocked door. For them to run away or whether it’s for the police or whoever to raid the place and go in and rescue them and set them free. It has been a subject that I have had a burden for a while. I pray for God to heal their wounds and their scars, physically and emotionally. That is one of the worst things that happens in our society. It breaks my heart to even think about it.

No one ever won a battle by not being bold. What would have happened if David had been like all the other Israelites? When Goliath came out there and was laughing and mocking them, and spoke, OK, send me your best warrior. What if he had just sat back and said, well, no, I’m too little. I’m small in stature and I can’t do this; someone else will go. But no, he was bold. And he said, you know, you come at me with a sword, and I come to you in the name of the Lord. And God took that little rock and that great big bit of boldness that David had, and he knocked Goliath to the ground.

Goliath’s head was cut off with his own sword. Sometimes the things that people try to use against you, God will use to destroy them. If we remain bold and stand strong. I pray that we will have holy boldness in these last days.

As the church, we need to quit letting people run over the top of us and push us around. (We let one woman take prayer out of schools. Think about it.) It’s time we had, holy boldness. I pray for holy boldness and that the people will understand it is time for the army to talk to our King.  Get our marching orders and go boldly forth.

It is time for us to go to the enemy’s camp and take back what he has stolen from us.  He is under our feet. We can put him under our feet if we stay connected to our power source, Jesus Christ. We have unlimited power through His Spirit. We can overcome whatever we face as long as we lean on Jesus.

BE BOLD, BE BRAVE AND KEEP YOUR GOD FOCUS
