Matthew 18:18 “Truly I tell you, whatever you bind on earth shall be bound in heaven and whatever you lose on earth shall be loosed in heaven.”

To lay a good foundation for (continuing) prayer in 2018, World Shapers Club will be applying the Biblical Principles of “binding and loosing” during the month of January. We believe this pushing back/tearing down of strongholds will go far to achieving even greater results of the combined intercession of World Shapers as the year progresses.

I know, for many of you seasoned warriors, binding the tactics/plans of the devil is a common strategy…pulling down strongholds. (II Cor 10:4) However,  the Bible says that, once the evil has departed, the devil will return to see what has taken its place. If we do not fill the void with the good things God purposes, the devil will return and fill it with evil seven times worse than at first. (Matthew 12:43-45)

So, for example, we will:  BIND – FEAR      LOOSE – FAITH, TRUST

The prayer points will be simple but the application/scope pretty endless. I’ll bet some lively conversations, warfare and celebrations will be taking place in January!

This is a great teaching opportunity for every parent, WSC Director, teacher or pastor. We have only done this type of calendar once before and, I LOVED the reaction of one 2nd grade (Christian school) teacher who immediately said, “Oh good! Opposites!”

What needs to be bound/loosed in your family, neighborhood, church or nation? Please share with us what you and your World Shapers feel needs to be “bound/loosed” in your area…

for such an (opportune) time as this!
