Prayers for Our City: October 28, 2019 – Family
“For You, Lord, are the Most High over all the earth; You are exalted far above all gods.” Psalm 97:9 NIV
Thank You, Father, that as we pray, You are protecting the kids and teens of Huntsville/Madison County this week from Halloween events and activities that would cause them to fear (stand in awe of) any other “god”, demon, or influence above You – the One true God before whom fire goes out and consumes Your enemies! (Psalm 97:3) We “set a guard over the mouth” of peers, school workers, neighbors, and even family members so they will not speak fear into our little ones or influence our teens to explore occult practices. We are so sorry, Lord, for the cultural trend to glorify death, fear, and darkness when You are offering the beauty of life, freedom and light!
We thank You for the many churches hosting harvest festival fun activities for our children. May every festival worker see these children from Your perspective and have an opportunity to speak words of affirmation and destiny over each child. May there be a harvest of those who are longing for Your Love and Light in a dark world. Thank you for every business that participates in providing safe, family-oriented activities. Give parents wisdom on what would not be good for their children to experience in this season and challenge our Christian educators and families to take advantage of the opportunity to share the history of All Saints Day and Reformation Day.
We thank You for angels standing watch over our streets and neighborhoods protecting lives and property as we daily plead the blood of Jesus over all that pertains to Huntsville/Madison County in Jesus’ name. We rejoice that You are Lord of every day of the year! We take our stand as “watchmen” of this community to close the “gates of entry” to all forms of darkness that want to rob us of LIFE!
“The thief comes only in order to steal and kill and destroy. I came that they may have and enjoy life, and have it in abundance (to the full, till it overflows),” John 10:10 AMP
