WORD FOR TODAY:
EVERY

THE MESSAGE:
An
altar is a place of worship. God's children always build altars for
the Lord to worship Him from time to time. The altar is where God
dwells. He dwells in us as believers through the Holy Spirit. Our
bodies have become the altar of the Lord. There is also the family
altar, a place where a family worships God.
The greatest need
for any family is to build an altar unto God. When you build an altar
unto God, He will bless you as He blessed father Abraham. Today, some
Christian families display their spirituality in the church alone.
They pray, teach, praise and worship God only in the church. This has
denied many of them the experience of divine blessings that come from
the family altar.
There are blessings attached to families
through the family altar. In other words, the family altar is church
in the home. Families that do not have an altar will suffer for it.
There are cases of incest, rape, killings and so on because many lack
the protection that comes from family altar.
A family altar in
the home is an indication of God's presence. When God is in your
home, He will surely keep, bless and provide for your home (2 Samuel
6:12). Timothy's grandmother brought him to the family altar and
Timothy became a Bishop.
There are many benefits that are
attached to having a family altar. Fellowship makes the family come
together to pray. It makes the family to study the word and worship
together. It also helps to bring the children up in the fear of the
Lord. Such children develop godly virtues and values to live a
stable, peaceful and victorious life (Proverbs 22:6). They also learn
how to communicate with God at the family altar (Matthew 19:14). The
battles of life are fought and won at the family altar. It is a place
to spend good time together with God. It is a place for repentance,
forgiveness and healing (1 Peter 3:7).
It is your responsibility to make your family altar effective. You can achieve that by having a regular time for it every day, probably very early in the morning. You should praise and worship and allow the children to do that one after the other. You should also have a well-planned Bible reading and discussion and let every family member participate in the activities.
PRAYER POINTS:
MORNING
1. I
curse every spirit enforcing evil altars in my life and I command
them to release me, in the name of Jesus.
2. Let every satanic
altar that has been introduced into my family receive the fire of
God, in the name of Jesus.
3. Let every evil hidden covenant
break, in the mighty name of Jesus.
EVENING

Every tree that the Father did not plant in my life, be uprooted, in
the name of Jesus.
5. O Lord, energise my family altar, in the
name of Jesus.
