Waging War -- Over the Church

LORD, we pray that you light a fire of passion in the hearts of your people...to study your word so that they can stand firm on your convictions and moral lines. We know the enemy hates you...he hates your standards and he hates people as well. He does not want to see anyone living in obedience to your word, but instead desires to see them living in contempt and rebellion to your word. Give us clarity when we read your scriptures...and give our pastors and leaders a heart to preach the unadulterated truth....regardless how the culture or even the church reacts or responds to the message.
