Break the stronghold in the next generation!



So it's been a hard couple days. One of my besties from the old days called me, her son is in the hospital, because of an overdose of drugs. He is a great kid. He has always had this light in him. But he got entangled by the snare of drugs. A stronghold that I see this next generation so bound up in. A trap from the devil. he is trying so hard to take this next generation down. I hate it. I have seen so many lives destroyed by drugs. These are kids who in most part have been raised in good, loving homes, with good families. I believe most these precious young adults are looking for purpose, looking to fill a void that only the LORD Himself can fill.

Some of them have had all the luxuries, money, handouts...without having to do anything. A lot of us as parents have failed, not purposely..but because we struggled and went without, we tried to make it up with our kids. We spoiled them. We induleged them. We gave them everything that we went without. We may have taught them, that things come easy, without a cost. We may have neglected to teach them about hard work. That the things worth while come with working hard.

In some cases, there is no blame. We live in a generation where the enemy is reeking havoc on the next generation. I know parents who have done their best, and yet their kids have chosen this distructinve way. It is such a stronghold.

I believe, that this generation needs to fight for the next generation. We who are Christians need to be fighting on our knees for these young adults. For it is only on our knees, humbling submitting ourselves to our Lord and Savior, and praying that He comes against the strongholds that are beating this generation down..it is only going to be, us on our knees, pleading to our Abba Father, who loves this next generation so much.

Lord, I pray that Your would have Your way with these precious young adults. Ignight a hunger and a passion in their lives, to be men and women who hunger and seek after YOU. You alone can break the strongholds. You alone can heal. You alone can turn ashes into beauty. You did it with me, You did it with my daughter..YOU are so awesome Lord..Please be with this young man. He has so many praying for Him..let him be a light to his friends and family..break the stronghold in his life. Give him a second chance..I pray in Jesus's Name..AMEN..AMEN..AMEN!!!!!
