⚔️ THE ENEMY IS AFTER OUR MARRIAGES AND OUR FAMILIES! ⚔️
The next area of our lives the enemy seeks to destroy is OUR MARRIAGE AND OUR FAMILY! 💔
I know this one hits home for so many of us, including me.
The devil will do everything he can to destroy the family. He seeks to tear apart the unity between husbands and wives because MARRIAGE IS GOD’S DIVINE PLAN! 🙌
The enemy knows that a husband and wife who are united together and united in Christ are a powerful force against the kingdom of darkness!
🔥 A GODLY MARRIAGE, ROOTED IN CHRIST, WILL KICK IN THE GATES OF HELL! 🔥
And the enemy knows something else…
GODLY MARRIAGES CAN RAISE UP GODLY GENERATIONS! 🙏
📖 Something my daddy wrote in his sermon notes really hit home with me:
📝 “When a home is busted up, it begins the planting of hurts and bitter feelings with everyone involved.”
Those wounds don’t just disappear. They leave scars. They plant seeds of bitterness, rejection, anger, and pain.
Those wounds must be dealt with, and ONLY GOD CAN BRING THE DEEP HEALING THAT IS NEEDED! ❤️🩹
🚨 PARENTS, GUARD YOUR HOMES AT ALL COSTS!
As I read these words my daddy wrote, I couldn’t help but think about my own family.
If you had told me that ten years after he wrote these notes my parents’ marriage would end, I would have laughed at you.
I never would have believed it.
But the enemy came in like a flood, and destruction followed. 💔
There were years of hurt, pain, and brokenness. But through the years, healing began to come.
In my daddy’s later years, when he became very sick, my mom was there taking care of him.
GOD CAN BRING HEALING EVEN AFTER YEARS OF BROKENNESS! 🙌
And now let me be transparent about my own life.
If you had told me that my own marriage would end in divorce because of choices I made, I wouldn’t have believed you either.
But it happened.
💔 I saw the hurt in my own children.
I saw the wounds that brokenness left behind.
And I have had to face the reality that some of the deepest pain my family experienced came from choices I made.
Healing hasn’t happened overnight.
The road hasn’t been easy. There have been tears, difficult conversations, and wounds that have taken time to heal.
But WE ARE MAKING PROGRESS! 🙌
And I can tell you why…
🔥 JESUS STEPPED INTO THE MIDDLE OF OUR BROKENNESS! 🔥
What I couldn’t fix in my own strength, I had to surrender to Him.
Today, I am so thankful for the family God has given me.
❤️ I’m thankful for His mercy.
❤️ I’m thankful for His forgiveness.
❤️ I’m thankful for restoration.
❤️ And I’m thankful for SECOND CHANCES!
I want to speak to someone today who may be walking through the pain of divorce, separation, or raising children alone.
YOUR STORY IS NOT OVER!
Maybe your marriage didn’t survive.
Maybe your family doesn’t look like you thought it would.
Maybe you are carrying guilt over choices you made.
Maybe you’re still trying to pick up the broken pieces.
Hear me today…
🔥 DIVORCE DOES NOT HAVE TO BE THE END OF YOUR STORY!
🔥 YOUR MISTAKES DO NOT HAVE TO DEFINE YOUR FUTURE!
🔥 YOUR CHILDREN’S PAIN DOES NOT HAVE TO BECOME THEIR DESTINY!
🔥 GOD IS STILL IN THE RESTORATION BUSINESS!
Allow Jesus to step into your situation. Give Him the broken pieces. Let Him begin the healing process in your heart and in your family.
And for those who are married today…
FIGHT FOR YOUR MARRIAGE!
Not against each other, but together against everything trying to divide your home.
Pray together. Forgive one another. Guard your hearts. Protect your children. Keep Jesus at the center of your home.
Don’t give the enemy an open door through bitterness, unforgiveness, pride, or division.
⚔️ THE ENEMY WANTS TO DESTROY GENERATIONS, BUT GOD IS RAISING UP FAMILIES THAT WILL STAND FOR HIM!
📖 Proverbs 18:22
”He who finds a wife finds a good thing and obtains favor from the Lord.”
📖 Genesis 2:24
”Therefore a man shall leave his father and his mother and hold fast to his wife, and they shall become one flesh.”
🙏 MY PRAYER TODAY:
Lord, protect our marriages, our children, and our families. Heal the wounds that divorce, separation, and broken relationships have left behind. Restore what can be restored. Bring forgiveness where there is bitterness, peace where there is conflict, and healing where there is pain.
Raise up a generation of families who will stand firm on Your Word and refuse to give the enemy a foothold in their homes.
LET OUR HOMES BE FILLED WITH YOUR PRESENCE! 🔥
❤️🔥 THE ENEMY MAY HAVE ATTACKED YOUR FAMILY, BUT HE DOES NOT GET TO WRITE THE FINAL CHAPTER!
JESUS IS STILL THE HEALER! JESUS IS STILL THE RESTORER! AND JESUS IS STILL THE HOPE OF OUR FAMILIES! 🙌🔥
