A Watchman’s Strength is in Focused Intercession!
The enemy knows that a watchman’s strength is in focused intercession!
If the enemy can overload our souls with personal burdens, drama, financial stress, or relationships, he can make us react instead of intercede.
Instead of lifting our voice to Heaven, we become trapped in the whirlwind of “Why is this happening to me?”
I’ve been realizing this more recently…
The Apostle Paul said to Timothy,
“No man that warreth entangleth himself with the affairs of this life; that he may please Him who hath chosen him to be a soldier.” 2 Timothy 2:4.
It’s not that daily issues aren’t real — they are!
But when they become our meditation, they choke prayer.
That’s a weapon being formed — but will not prosper!
“No weapon formed against you shall prosper, and every tongue which rises against you in judgment You shall condemn. This is the heritage of the servants of the LORD, and their righteousness is from Me,” says The LORD.” Isaiah 54:17.
Shalom

Amen.
Strong post sister! Amen
So true! We have to be alert, and very conscious of distractions that comes to pull us in the wrong direction. I realized that also; even today, I caught myself quickly and started to pray for the individual.
Blessings peace and love to you and yours dear Syreeta.
