Trevor, thank you so much for the information. It is truly a situation that requires the whole church as a complete body to pray about. Because of the 10th power for each individual joining in prayer, we can come against this spirit that is tormenting in our schools. It's not only the parent's training up a child in the way he should go, but it's allowing the schools to educate the children on sex and allowing condoms to be place in the school bathrooms and such. This is a strong signal to the kids at the school that it's OK. And by allowing that signal to be put out there, then naturally the boys are going to exploit it. They think that it's perfectly ok with them to do these things.
Personally, I think that the schools should stay out of the moral issues that the parents should be teaching at home and focus on educating our children on things that really truly matter with their lives...like careers!!! And just like our parents did before us about not taking a stand to keep prayer in schools, we sit back and let them start putting sex as an education for our children. It's all on a downward spiral to get our children out from under our guidance and influence into going and following the rest of the world in their ways. Which, of course, you know yourself where that is leading them.
You, Christina and all of the youths are in our prayers. If we can instill in you and others to keep some morals in your life and trust God to keep you, then we know that we can trust our future generations to have morals and will teach their children the same. We love you and all of our youths and we are behind you in your stand against this immoral acts that are being conducted in our school systems. Thank you Son for taking the time to let us know about this and for taking a stand to fight against it. By the way, I'm glad you talked yourself out of putting a hurting to that guy too. Things handled in the flesh only stirs to make things worst for yourself and others. I sure what stopped you was the scriptures that you've been taught by your pastor who is your dad "For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places" came into your heart and you knew that it was not the right answer to what you wanted to do. This is a situation that calls for the body of Christ to come together and pull these things down by spiritual warfare in prayer.
We stand with you....we are praying for you and others who are going through this. We love our children because they are US living on for us after we are deceased. We will impart into them what we know is right and best for them. You, Trevor, are a fine young man who will do very well in your later years after mom and dad are no more. You have shown that you will stand up in what you believe to be right and that is a unique quality that is desperately needed in all of our youths. By taking this stand, others will see it and it will encourage them to start to stand up for what they believe to be right also. That is a reward right there within itself. To know that you helped others to stand up for what they believe in. Keep up the good work, stand in faith and your desire will come to pass. You will reap IF you faint not.
We love you,

Trevor,
First of all, I want to let you know that I'm not writing this to change your mind like you had stated earlier and I'm not going to say I agree or disagree with your Dad. But I will let you know what I have learned over the years and I believe that it will help you to understand things a little better.
First and foremost, we had been given total dominion over the earth. Over everything....the fowls, the animals, plants, etc., but not dominion over man. Also we were given free will, the rights to choose. Whether good or bad, we have that right. But when Adam sinned he gave that authority over to the enemy, giving him rights into our lives. God does not interfere with man's choices. On the negative side (evil) God cannot interfere with those choices. On the positive side (good) He will intervene on the behalf of the righteous (this being made possible by those of faith who trusted in Him and walked according to His word) when they asked of Him. When they fasted and prayed to Him. Only then does He come and intercept what is being summoned of Him.
When Jesus came and died on the cross He became Lord and King and High Priest of every born again believer (He took back the keys of death, hell and the grave from the enemy, and the enemy has no more dominion over the believers lives except what we allowed). But evil still continues to exist and have rights until the time of the contract that God gave to Adam is up which will end at the end of the 6,000 year reign). So when we (believers) pray and ask of Him, Jesus goes before the Father and intercedes for us. He tells us in His word (which we are guilty of not reading and following His commandments like we should) that He has given US the power in His Name, given the Blood which cover and protects us as well as cleanse us from sin, the word which gives us the power of knowledge of what has been done and given to us by Him when He died on the cross. And most importantly above all...He gave us the keys. This is extremely vital in your walk with the Lord which is the keys of binding and loosing.
The scriptures says that we perish for lack of knowledge. "My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge" (Hosea 4:6) So when we don't know what the word says, what it has done for us, what it has given to us, and what we can do with it...then we are destroyed.
You have the power because it has been given to you, whether you use it or not is TOTALLY up to you.
1. You have the word (Psalm 91)
2. You have the blood (cleanse you from sin and a covering to protect). 3. You have the name of Jesus (ANYTHING that has a name must bow it's knee to it).
4. You have the keys of binding and loosing (whatever you bind on earth is bound in heaven, whatever you loose on earth is loose in heaven) to stop the enemy from killing, stealing, and destroying in yours and your families's life.
Now here's the catch:
ARE WE GETTING THE KNOWLEDGE?
ARE WE PRACTICING WHAT WE KNOW?
ARE WE APPLYING IT TO OUR LIVES AND TO OUR FAMILIES LIVES?
ARE WE SPEAKING IT OVER OUR LIFE AND OUR FAMILIES?
ARE WE WALKING IN LOVE AND IN THE COMMANDMENTS?
ARE WE BINDING AND LOOSING?
If the answer is NO to any of these, then the enemy has an open door to do whatever he has been given or allowed for him to do. We allow him to walk all over us and do whatever when we do not search out the scriptures.
I'm going to tell you of an experience in my life that I believe will help you to understand some things. I was married for 20 years, I knew some of the word, I had studied, I had went to bible college, I had heard the word preached and I really thought that I was ok. My marriage was in shambles. My husband did not love me. In this situation we have 2 people's wills involved here. I wanted it to work, and he did not. I was really believing God to help make my marriage work (noticed what I said here "God to help make" without me doing what His word said for ME TO DO), and when it didn't I lost ALL FAITH in Him. I blamed Him for not helping to keep it together for me. Remember...my husband's will is involved here and my will also. God could not cross that line. I was not fully knowledgeable in the word like I should be. The end result was a divorced and a bitter woman who wanted nothing more to do with God because He didn't do anything to save it. He couldn't because I didn't speak His WORD that he had given me to speak. He had nothing to work with. It was destiny that I married my husband. There is no doubt about that. But you have to see that in this picture man's will is involved here. My husband did not want it to work, and I wasn't using the word like it said for me to.
Now, when I got my divorce, several years later I got tangled up with a guy that I loved more than anything in this earth. He was involved in drugs and alcohol. Sometime near the end of that relationship I became friends with your Aunt Janice, and she started ministering to me. She told me who I was in Christ and told me of the power that was given to me. She told me how to use the scriptures in my life and how God loved me and that He had nothing to work with to save my marriage. I begin to see where I had failed and not God. Knowledge brings power when it is revealed and put to use.
Sometime later something happened one night between me and this guy that had I not known what Janice had told me, I would have ended up dead. He was drunk and he got very angry with me. He had me pushed up against the wall with both hands holding me by my neck with my feet dangling off the floor choking me. He said that he was going to kill me and bury me where no one would find me. When he said that, there was a peace that came over me and out of my mouth were these words (which I was straining to get out and having troubled breathing) "No you can't because I'm a child of the Most High God and He won't let you kill me because I belong to Jesus. And I bind you Satan in the name of Jesus." He said it again and I repeated NO You won't in the name of Jesus. He was staring me in the eyes and I could tell God started dealing with him because his countenance started to change. He finally let me down. And I left and never went back. Had I not used the power that was given to me I wouldn't be here today. I gave God something to work with. He watched over His word to perform it.
So you see it's all about finding out who we are, finding out what God's word says, doing what the word says and walking and speaking it out. God allowed it because of my choice to be there. God allowed the divorce because my husband's choice to end the marriage. But the experience will be used to help others who are going through the same thing. God knew that I would do what I did (it was destined) and He allowed me to walk the path I chose, but He made a way of escape for me. I reaped the seeds I sowed, but His mercy and goodness saw me through it. IT'S ALL ABOUT OUR CHOICES THAT WE CHOOSE TO DO. IT'S ABOUT OUR WILL AND THAT WE HAVE A RIGHT TO MAKE THOSE CHOICES. GOOD OR BAD WE MAKE THEM. WHEN WE GAIN KNOWLEDGE IT'S UP TO US WHETHER WE CHOOSE TO WALK IN IT OR NOT. Bad things happen to good people because of the use of or lack of the power that is given to us. God is a loving, merciful God. He does not make that choice for us, He allows it even though His heart cries out for us to choose His way. That's our choice but He makes a way of escape for us, and we use the experience to help others as a way of showing our love to Him for intervening on our behalf and being there for us.
He knew from the very beginning what I would do...He could not stop my will or my husband's will but He put me on the right path to where, in the future down the road which I was traveling on, would bring me closer to Him and put the right people in my path to help make me the person that He had predestined for me to be.
So, it's up to you whether you choose to walk in the knowledge and power that you learn from the word, and use the name, the blood, and the keys that has been given to you and everyone else. It's all about your will and whether you submit your will to the will of God. To choose to walk in His path instead of your own. God honors your choice which way you go. Whether you choose the mountain of the blessings or the mountain of the curses. God would rather you choose life and the blessings, but He will not make you choose. If I choose to walk my way, my will, and not God's I will open the door for the enemy to do whatever he wants to me and I CANNOT BLAME GOD because He told me in His word that He wanted me to choose life and the blessings, and if I choose to be disobedient then I AM ALLOWING bad things to happen in my life.
The choice is ours...which mountain are we going to choose?...which path are we going to go down? Are we going to give God something to work with in our lives or are we going to keep allowing the enemy to destroy us? Nothing just happens....but it's our choices that causes it. |

Pastor Kip,
You are definitely in our prayers. I pray that this sickness that is trying to attach itself to your body will cease to exist. I pray that the blood of Jesus (Yeshua) covers every part of your body from the top of your head to the sole of your feet. Every cells and organs to line up with the word of God...that by His stripes you were healed...and that no sickness or disease can attach itself to your body because you are the body of Christ and NOTHING can live on His body that is not of God. I bind the enemy from killing, stealing and destroying in your life because I've been given that authority the keys of the kingdom. I command the angels to go forth now to bring God's perfect will into your life and that is divine health. He wish above all things that you would prosper and be in good health even as your soul prospers. And if you have done anything that is not pleasing in His sight it will be forgiven...I declare and decreed be made whole and complete, all this in the precious powerful name of the Almighty God Jesus (Yeshua) the Messiah, the Prince of Peace....Shalom

Chris and Diane,
Your family is our family even if they don't come to our church. They are definitely in our prayers and will continuously be lifted up. You both stand your ground, don't you dare let the enemy take even an inch from you. God promised us that OUR WHOLE HOUSEHOLD WOULD BE SAVED...and that means your family. They are saved and totally set free and delivered from all sickness and diseases. We all agree in Jesus' name that we have whatsoever we desire of Him and that He already gave it to us before we were ever born or thought of. Remember the enemy is under our feet and we're going to make sure that he stays there..also don't forget this...he's already judged, and defeated..the victory is OURS!!!!
As your faith is so be it!!
I love you both, |

I have an urgent prayer request that I want ALL of LWWC to be praying
about. My cousin Valeria Butler Lupo's husband Ricky is in Charleston
Medical right now in surgery and is in critical conditions. He has a
50/50 chance of coming out of it. I wasn't given the details of what
it was but I do know that he's had a lot of health problems and a bad
heart. I want you to agree with me that the enemy is bounded from
killing, stealing and destroying in Ricky's life and that the angels
of God are going forth in Jesus/Yeshua's name to bring God's perfect
will into Ricky's life. We all agree that Christ died for our
deliverance from the enemy's strongholds and curses. That He took the
stripes on His back for our healing and when 2 or 3 agree the word is
established. We call Ricky alive and strong in the Lord and by His
stripes Ricky is healed and delivered. That the doctors will perform
the surgery to the best of their ability and that God's hand is
leading and guiding them. Thank you Father for your love, your mercy,
your grace, and your forgiveness of our sins. Thank you Father for
healing Ricky and forgiving him of any sins that he may have committed
and cleansing him in the blood of Jesus/Yeshua. We thank you Father
that Your Holy Spirit is hovering over Ricky right now and
administering life into his body. We give you all the glory, the
honor and the praises that You so rightfully deserve. And we ask it
all in the precious name of Your Son Jesus/Yeshua. AMEN!!

Please start a prayer chain for Nathan Nance, son of Thomas and Paula
Nance. Thomas is Pastor Kip's brother. Nathan, who has been diagnose
with Cystic Fibrosis (but Nathan says he's healed) has been admitted
back into the hospital for 2 weeks. This is causing a hardship on the
family and they desperately need prayer. Someone has to stay with
Nathan during his stay in the hospital. His mother has just started a
new job about 2 weeks ago and she's afraid that she will lose her job,
and on top of that, they have a little girl also at home that will
need tending to. So you can see the hardship that they will be going
through.
Please be in prayer that God will make a way for all this to work out
in their favor and for Nathan to recover quickly. Ms. Peggy, Pastor
Kip and the family will appreciate it greatly.
God bless!!
Debbie Howard wants us to pray for her son. He's sick and coughing up
blood. He doesn't know if it's something he breathed in at work. We
need to desperately lift him up, because of his ministry and that the
enemy is trying to destroy him. You all know that he is truly
anointed of God and doing an awesome job for the Lord in the prisons.
Please stand on behalf of him in prayer that they will find out what's
wrong and be able to correct it.
Also, Debbie wants us to pray for her. She's at a critical step where
she has to make some serious decisions and she wants to make the right
choices. So please be in prayer for her as well. She extends her
love to each and everyone of us, and appreciates all of our prayers.
