PREY or PRAY

Somebody is hunting you. Not your wife. Not your boss. Not your past. A real enemy with a real strategy, and he has been studying you longer than your own mother has known you. He knows your appetites. He knows your hours. He knows the exact thought that hits you the second your alarm goes off. He knows the wound underneath the wound. And he is patient. Most men don't get devoured in one bite. They get nibbled. A compromise here. A skipped prayer there. A scroll that turned into a session. A silence that turned into a season. By the time a brother realizes he is being eaten alive, the lion has already been sitting at his table for years - eating off his plate, sleeping in his bed, raising his kids, and wearing his name. "Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour." - 1 Peter 5:8 (KJV) You have two postures available to you in this life. Only two. There is no third. Prey or pray. PREY or PRAY is not a devotional. It will not make you feel inspired for fourteen minutes. It is a weapon and the training to use it. apstl. Dr. Royce "Sully" Sullivan - holding earned doctorates in Psychology, Theology, and Ministry, an apostolic father with more than twenty years forging men - walks you through ten battlefronts where the enemy has been hunting you: your fire, your eyes, your name, your house, your ghosts, your shadow, your doors, your weight, your wounds, and your brothers. Ten strategies. Ten battlefronts. One war. Every chapter names the strategy being run against you, roots the counter-move in Scripture and in the original Hebrew and Greek, and ends by putting you to work. You will build a War Plan using the WATCH Protocol - Watch, Arm, Target, Cry out, Hold - and you will pray it out loud, in your truck, in your closet, in your shop, on your knees. The back of the book is a War Room: ten Gates you build and man, a Watch Log for the daily stand, and a Posture Audit that tells you exactly where you are standing right now. Written for the brother who used to pray and now scrolls. Used to lead and now hides. Used to burn and now barely flickers. Still loves Jesus but doesn't know how to fight anymore. Knows something is hunting him but doesn't have the language for it yet. If that is you - welcome home. You are not weak. You are under siege. And being under siege is not a character flaw. It is a position on a map. Positions can be changed. The hunt is on, brother. But so is the watch. Pick up your weapon.
