Peace at Home
Strife drops the shield of faith, stops prayer results, and invites Satan and his cohorts into your midst. Discord is deadly. It paralyzes the power of God in your life.
Don't allow the enemy to stop at your own front door by allowing strife in your home. If you do, you'll be no threat to him anywhere else.
Put the power of harmony to work in your family.
----------Kenneth and Gloria Copeland

How to Forgive
http://www.wikihow.com/Forgive
Forgiveness is not a defensive action, but an offensive one. It actively demolishes strongholds that keep you and others in bondage to a hurtful situation. Be aware that you are in a spiritual battle through the act of forgiveness and may experience some resistance from the devil in this. Press forward towards victory anyway! It is the best gift you can give yourself!
