Let's pray fervently for protection against witchcraft & astral attacks. "No weapon forged against you will prevail." (Isa 54:17) Trust God's power to obstruct & dissolve these strongholds. "For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal, but mighty through God." (2 Cor 10:4) Praying for exposure & deliverance. 
[At the end of the parable of the vineyard and the tenant farmers, Jesus asked:] "Didn't you ever read this in the Scriptures?
'The stone that the builders rejected has now become the cornerstone. This is the Lord's doing, and it is wonderful to see.'"
—Mark 12:10-11 NLT
Key Thought
Jesus finished his story by quoting an Old Testament Scripture that became one of his early followers' favorite passages. The point of the quotation is simple: God can turn things around and do great things with what looks like rejection and disaster. This redemption of apparently bad situations is precisely what God does. God raised his Son Jesus from the dead and vindicated his life, his ministry, and his teachings. What began horribly — the Son being murdered and his body desecrated outside the city — ended in something marvelous — Jesus being raised and death being defeated. While we abhor the rejection, the wounds, the humiliation, and the death that Jesus endured, God has made Jesus' suffering precious to us. It is marvelous grace.
Today's Prayer
My Father in heaven, the only one adequate response that I can give to all that you have given to me through your Son is thank you! However, dear Lord, I want my "thank you" to be more than words; I want to say thank you with all of my being and show my appreciation with the way that I live. In Jesus' name. Amen.
