We are convinced that our son's name could be inserted into the scripture when Jesus said, "James, James, satan has asked to sift you but I have prayed for you that your faith will not fail and when you have turned back, encourage your brothers." An awful situation but apparently, necessary for Jesus to get this young man where he ought to be. Question: if Jesus is allowing satan to sift this lad, am I working at cross purposes if I 'm praying the blood of Jesus on him, around him and for him?? My thought is that Jesus will simply set my well intentioned prayers on a shelf for another time if they're not useful now. Oui?
