That dog can t get to you unless he finds a way to get around the fence. Pretty cool contraption. Anyway, it s sort of like a force field. It works just like a fence. Only you can t see it.
Prayer is like that.
It forms a barrier around us like a fence forms a barrier around your house. This barrier does two things. Without prayer, we are vulnerable to the attacks of the enemy as well as our own weaknesses and tendencies toward sin. Prayer gives us the tools to bring deliverance from the bondage of sin. Prayer helps us break the strongholds of the enemy.
