Salvation through Jesus Christ
Our salvation ministry is dedicated to winning souls to Christ by providing scripture-based guidance that nurtures spiritual growth and the flourishing of His Kingdom.
The Resolve to Pray Using the Infallible Word of God
Our exegetical scripture study ministry prays that The Holy Spirit intercedes in Christian marriages to renew our commitment to consistently pray for our husbands using God’s Holy Word and strengthen our resolve to reflect Adonai’s glory and grace in the covenant blessing of being chosen as Christian wives.
We Seal This Prayer By Faith
Our marriage ministry prays that every Christian wife called by God will renew her purpose in The Kingdom by surrendering her marriage to the sanctifying grace of The Holy Spirit, committing to praising Jesus for blessing her covenant, bestowing peace in her heart for her husband, and restoring her joy in the favor of being chosen as his wife.
Edify and Overcome
Edify and Overcome serves as the revered Christian scripture-based prayer podcast of the Agape Living Empowerment Initiative, graciously guided by Evangelist Dr. Shamarian Smith-Love, who inspires Christian wives to earnestly pray for their husbands, prioritize their peace of mind, and diligently uphold their faith in Christ through the divine wisdom of The Holy Scriptures found in The Infallible Word of God.
We Believe The Word of God
We believe that The Holy Trinity [God, The Father – Jesus Christ, The Son – The Holy Ghost, Our Intercessor] Is Sovereign.
And who can win this battle against the world? Only those who believe that Jesus is the Son of God. And Jesus Christ was revealed as God’s Son by his baptism in water and by shedding his blood on the cross—not by water only, but by water and blood. And the Spirit, who is truth, confirms it with his testimony. So we have these three witnesses— the Spirit, the water, and the blood—and all three agree. Since we believe human testimony, surely we can believe the greater testimony that comes from God. And God has testified about his Son. All who believe in the Son of God know in their hearts that this testimony is true.
– 1 Jan (John) 5:5-10 NLT
-
Every Scripture is God-breathed (given by His inspiration) and profitable for instruction, for reproof and conviction of sin, for correction of error and discipline in obedience, [and] for training in righteousness (in holy living, in conformity to God’s will in thought, purpose, and action), So that the man of God may be complete and proficient, well fitted and thoroughly equipped for every good work.
– 2 Timoti (Timothy) 3:16-17 AMPC -
That if you confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that Elohim has raised Him from the dead, you shall be saved. For with the heart one believes unto righteousness, and one confesses with the mouth, and so is saved. Because the Scripture says, “Whoever puts his trust in Him shall not be put to shame.”
– Ruoman (Romans) 10:9-11 NLT -
The wise woman builds her house on a foundation of Godly principles, and her household thrives.
– Proverbs 14:1 AMPC

We Seal This Prayer By Faith
We Seal This Prayer By Faith is an intercessory prayer ministry graciously guided by Evangelist Dr. Shamarian Smith-Love, operating under the ministry of the Agape Living Empowerment Initiative.
Its primary focus is to:
Encourage Christian Wives in Intercessory Prayer: It specifically motivates and guides Christian wives to consistently pray for their husbands.
Utilize God's Infallible Word: A key tenet is the belief in and application of scripture as the basis for prayer, emphasizing that prayers rooted in The Holy Scriptures are powerful and effective.

We Seal This Prayer By Faith is also the title of a book authored by Evangelist Dr. Shamarian Smith-Love, which serves as an exegesis of the Holy Scriptures and a concordance of intercessory prayers for Christian wives and is an integral part of her "Edify and Overcome" book series. Additionally, the principles of "We Seal This Prayer By Faith" are woven into her "Edify and Overcome" podcast, where she provides scripture-based guidance for Christian wives to pray for their husbands, prioritize peace, and uphold their faith.
The Resolve to Pray Using the Infallible Word of God
The Resolve to Pray Using the Infallible Word of God is a specific emphasis and ministry within the Agape Living Empowerment Initiative, envisioned and established by Evangelist Dr. Shamarian Smith-Love.
This phrase encapsulates a core tenet of her ministry, which is:
The Commitment to Prayer: It highlights a deliberate and firm decision (a "resolve") to engage in prayer.
The Centrality of God's Word: It underscores that this prayer is not just any prayer, but prayer that is deeply rooted in and guided by The Holy Scriptures in The Bible.
The Infallibility of Scripture: By emphasizing "the Infallible Word of God," the ministry stresses the belief that the Bible is without error, trustworthy, and completely true. This provides a strong foundation and assurance for prayer, as believers can stand on God's promises knowing they are steadfast and reliable.
Empowerment for Christian Wives: While the principle applies broadly, this "resolve" is particularly promoted among Christian wives, encouraging them to consistently and strategically pray for their husbands using scriptural promises and principles.
In essence, The Resolve to Pray Using the Infallible Word of God is a call to action for Christian wives to approach prayer with intentionality, confidence, and a firm reliance on the truth and power of God's Revealed Word. It moves beyond casual prayer to a more disciplined and Biblically-informed approach, promising greater effectiveness and spiritual growth.

The Lord is our rock and our fortress, and our deliverer; our God, our strength, in whom we will trust; our buckler, and the horn of our salvation, and our high tower.
