(Proverbs 17:14 NKJV)\u00a0 The beginning of strife is like releasing water; Therefore stop contention before a quarrel starts.<\/span><\/p>\n

A while back, we were staying with some people. While we were there, they mentioned some problems they were having in their home and how it was getting way out of hand. There was constant bickering going on with each other and they didn’t know why.<\/span><\/p>\n

That night when we went to bed, before falling asleep we prayed and sought the Lord. While praying we heard the word “contention.” So we began to rebuke it in the name of Jesus and prayed for God’s peace to come into that home.<\/span><\/p>\n

It was about a week or so later, we called them to see how things were going and they said everything was much better. Praise be to God!<\/span><\/p>\n

Contention<\/span><\/i>\u00a0is a hard thing to live with, and if we don’t deal with it, it will try to wreak havoc with everyone in the house. It will cause a lot of tension and stress.<\/span><\/p>\n

(Proverbs 25:24 NKJV)\u00a0 It is better to dwell in a corner of a housetop, Than in a house shared with a contentious woman.<\/span><\/p>\n

(Proverbs 26:21 NKJV)\u00a0 As charcoal is to burning coals, and wood to fire, So is a contentious man to kindle strife.<\/span><\/p>\n

If \u00a0you feel there has been a lot of fighting going on in your home, \u00a0at work, in your dorm, in your church, etc., we want to stand with you today and agree to take charge of the atmosphere of that place for Jesus Christ. And we rebuke contention in Jesus’ name.<\/span><\/p>\n

May God’s peace be with you wherever you go. \u00a0Amen.<\/span><\/p>\n
