]]> Prayer as an aggressive act?
“Violence and love are not contradictory…[we] must learn of
Calvary’s power. Love. And,[we] must also learn Calvary’s price.
Violence.”-Jack HayfordChist’s sacifice was a violent act of love.

From the time of John the Baptizer until now, the kingdom of heaven
has been forcefully advancing, and forceful people have been seizing
it. (Mat 11:12 GW)

This continues to be a strange and new concept for me. I have always
seen prayer as a passive, afterthought. But prayer, like Christ’s
sacrifice for us, is an aggressive act against the evil and darkness
of this world that wants to steal our hearts.
