Stay Here and Watch With Me

     My soul is overwhelmed with sorrow and darkness.   Demons were bearing down on Him putting unbelievable pressure and pain upon Him.  It would get so bad his sweat would turn to blood.   He bought His closest companions to be with Him, Peter, James, and John  He needed their compassion and prayers.  It was midnight by the clock and in their souls.   If anyone needed a friend it was Jesus during these terrible hours.  The spirit was willing, but the flesh was weak.  These men of God had given out all day and still going at midnight.  It was a very busy time with no time to rest.  For them to sit down at midnight with demons, so near to help put them to sleep was too much for their already worn out bodies. 
     Are we weary in these last hours?  It is time to pray like we have never before.   Satan is hindering on every hand, darkness is closing in all around us.  We should be bombarding Heaven like never before.   Satan will advance and take ground in every area, if the body of Christ lets him.  In our family, our community, and in the world.   Demons and hell is crouching to surround so many people to snare them.  Satan is attacking God’s people left and right.  Let’s wake up to pray more fervently for as many people as we can.  I’m sure everyday Peter, James, and John were reminded I should have prayed and watched. Let’s pray while we can lest Satan lures us to sleep. 
     Satan is like a roaring lion seeking whom, he can devour.    Look around you this world is not your friend.  If it is, then you are not a friend of God.  We are in enemy territory and we can expect to be attacked at any time.  
     Ps.46:1" God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in the time of trouble. "  Jesus words to the disciples watch and pray.  Awake thou that sleeps and God will give you light.
