Let me just say that this prayer is said so that souls will turn their hearts to Jesus. I’m talking about emotional and spiritual\u00a0walls. Walls that separate us from God! Walls that keep us\u00a0from helping each other and being brothers and sisters in Christ…this is not to stir up strife but to free us from the enemy’s clutches…Love conquers evil…please do not read anything into this but what God’s heart is about!! It’s about repentance and holiness before the living God! In Jesus name amen!<\/h6>\n
Jesus,<\/h6>\n
Tear down the walls of compromise and complacency\u2026<\/h6>\n
Tear down the walls of prejudice and gossip and hate\u2026<\/h6>\n
Tear down the walls of lies and deception and seduction\u2026<\/h6>\n
Jesus, help us to turn our hearts, our ears, our eyes, our hands and feet towards you so that you are all we see and will follow.<\/h6>\n
You are our hiding place, our high tower; you are our hope and redemption<\/h6>\n
You are our strength and our peace and life you are truth\u2026<\/h6>\n
Oh Lord, I cry before you today. Without you I am an empty shell<\/h6>\n
I am incomplete and lost\u2026<\/h6>\n
Help us Lord! Have mercy. Turn our hearts to your heart\u2026<\/h6>\n
Lord, I\u2019m tired\u2026but you said do not grow weary in doing good\u2026<\/h6>\n
For we will bring forth a great harvest if we don\u2019t give up<\/h6>\n
People are running and seeking pleasure and things that won\u2019t last\u2026<\/h6>\n
Tear down the walls of religion, and politics\u2026<\/h6>\n
Tear down the walls of selfish ambition and self-gratification\u2026<\/h6>\n
Tear down the walls of greed and pride\u2026<\/h6>\n
Humble us Oh God and bring us back to the cross<\/h6>\n
To see you, and, to know you, in the beauty of holiness and all that you have given<\/h6>\n
Humanity is blessed because of your great love and sacrifice\u2026<\/h6>\n
God tear down the walls of racism and indifference<\/h6>\n
Tear down the walls of materialism and turn our hearts to what is most important to you<\/h6>\n
This world is not our home\u2026but you\u2019ve said to occupy until you come\u2026<\/h6>\n
Help us to remember why we are here\u2026<\/h6>\n
Help us remember the call and who it is for\u2026<\/h6>\n
Help us remember if we find our life we lose it, but, if we lose our life for your sake we find it\u2026<\/h6>\n
Help us remember, this is a walk of faith and that your grace is sufficient for us day by day\u2026<\/h6>\n
Jesus, you, be lifted up\u2026so that all will be drawn unto you!<\/h6>\n
Amen\u2026<\/h6>\n

Joshua 6:15-21 NIV<\/strong><\/em><\/h6>\n
On the seventh day, they got up at daybreak and marched around the city seven times in the same manner, except that on that day they circled the city seven times.<\/em> The seventh time around, when the priests sounded the trumpet blast, Joshua commanded the army, \u201cShout<\/strong>! For the <\/em>Lord<\/em> has given you the city!<\/em> The city and all that is in it are to be devoted to the Lord. Only Rahab the prostitute and all who are with her in her house shall be spared, because she hid the spies we sent. But keep away from the devoted things, so that you will not bring about your own destruction by taking any of them. Otherwise you will make the camp of Israel liable to destruction and bring trouble on it. All the silver and gold and the articles of bronze and iron are sacred to the Lord and must go into his treasury.\u201d When the trumpets sounded, the<\/strong> army<\/strong> shouted<\/strong>, and at the sound of the trumpet, when the men gave a loud shout, the<\/strong> wall<\/strong> collapsed<\/strong>; so everyone charged straight in, and they took the city.<\/em><\/h6>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
