LOVE YOUR FAMILY

LOVE YOUR FAMILY.
NOT because they are perfect or generous or easy to talk to or get along with. BUT LOVE YOUR FAMILY because of CHRIST.

Situations, Personalities and PAST REALITIES may make it difficult or even impossible to be in their presence.
NEVERTHELESS, there is a LOVE that makes INTERCESSION Possible.

THERE is a LOVE that gives us the GRACE to release ALL Bitterness.
THERE REALLY is a LOVE that can motivate us to be HARMLESS in our thoughts even toward the most grievous family member.

LORD JESUS CHRIST, SON OF GOD.
Today's assignment may be a hard or even painful thing for so many.
NEVERTHELESS, In the POWER OF THE HOLY GHOST; Please HELP us to PRAY for our families.

Where there has been or is violence, incest, rejection, abuse or neglect;
Let the HEALING begin NOW in the NAME OF JESUS.

Where there has been or is POVERTY, Lack, need, want; we PRAY for KINGDOM OF GOD INTERVENTION and PROVISION TODAY. In the NAME OF JESUS.

FOR separated, scattered, families; LORD BRING us together in SPIRIT if not in fact. In the NAME OF JESUS.

LORD for families marked by loneliness, isolation and mental disease; LORD GOD our PEACE, Please LORD send the HEALERS. In the Name of JESUS.
FOR FAMILIES facing difficult decisions, LORD grant us wisdom, encouragement and FAVOR.                In the NAME of JESUS.

FOR Families involved in long term care for a Family member who is sick or handicapped; POUR Out upon each one THE SPIRIT of REFRESHING.
IN THE NAME OF JESUS.

THANK YOU ABBA for being the FATHER of all families.
We look to you.
In THE NAME OF JESUS.
AMEN.
