Fighting For the Family

Family means alot to me. As the oldest of three boys, I was taught to always look out for my brothers and to take care of the family. I was taught that you always stick by your family and help them when they are in need. We find a situation in Genesis chapter 14 where Abram's family has fallen into the hands of the enemy. The Bible tells us that a group of kings got together to invade the five cities around the Sodom area. During this attack, Lot and his family were taken captive. When Abram recieves the word that his nephew is in danger he quickly assembles his servants for battle. The amazing thing is that Abram is probably close to 80 years of age at this moment. I want to take the time right here to tell you that you are never to old to fight for your family. Don't pass the torch to early. Abram assembles his men and the Bible says that they won a great victory that day. They defeated entire kingdoms that day. I declare to you that it is time to fight back for the family. We can not allow the devil to steal our marriages, our kids, our parents, our neices and nephews, or our grandchildren. We have been give the power to chase off the enemy and win the battle. Start fighting back today. Don't live defeated. If you are a child of God, then the victory is already yours. God bless
