When You Can’t Pray

April 12, 2024

Have you ever been in a situation where you can’t even pray?

Maybe it is a loved one who is seriously ill.

You have received bad news and are too overwhelmed to know how to pray.

Sometimes we just don’t know what to pray for and our prayers seem to go no further than the ceiling of the room.

Whatever the cause of our lack of prayer, we have an advocate. The Holy Spirit. He will pray for us as the verse in Romans promises.

Be thankful for this precious promise and know that even when you can’t pray, you are being prayed for by Holy Spirit.

How To Send A SOS To The Lord

Sometimes, we have to send out an SOS to the Lord in prayer. He is faithful to answer. An acronym for how to get prayers answered follows:

Sincere: it is important that we are sincere when we pray. God knows our heart and He knows if we really desire what we are asking for.

Obedience: we must be sure we are obedient to God’s word. There must not be any known sin in our lives.

Specific: we must be specific and tell God exactly what we need.

Jeremiah 33:3 Call unto me, and I will answer thee, and shew thee great and mighty things, which thou knowest

You Can Have Victory!

April 10, 2024

God’s promise to His children. We can have victory in our lives over the problems we face.

Victory over sin, addiction, sickness and even death. Do our problems disappear? No, not always. But Jesus promised to walk with us through any trial that we face.

He won the victory over death when He rose from the dead. If you are facing a great battle in your life, remember, you have the victory through Jesus.

Do You Truly Love Your Neighbor?

April 8, 2024

Do you find it hard to love some people? Maybe it is a fellow worker, a disagreeable neighbor, someone in your family, a person of another race or religion.

It is a natural reaction to not love someone who has hurt you, but that is the problem. It is a “natural” reaction. The Bible tells us in Ephesians as Christians to put off the old man which is corrupt and put on the new man, which is holy.

How then do we overcome the lack of love in our lives? Start to pray for that person if it is an individual. Ask God to change your heart if it is a group of people.

We cannot be an obedient Christian or have God’s blessings if we have hate in our heart.

Pray For Others, Especially Your Pastor

April 7, 2024

Today, Pray for your brothers and sisters in Christ. Especially praying for your Pastor.

Pastors have many things on their minds. Their family, all the trials of each member of their congregation, and problems we know nothing about.

They have so many burdens and they uplift everyone in times of sorrow and joy. Pray for strength, wisdom and Holy Spirit power in their lives. Then give them a word of encouragement.

Also, never bring a problem of yours to them before they are ready to preach. That quenches the Spirit. Wait. Your Pastor wants to be there for you. You need to be there for him.

April Showers, May Flowers

April 4, 2024

The old saying “April Showers bring May Flowers”. Do you ever feel the rain is too much in your life? Sickness, sorrow, losses to numerous to mention. God knows all about our problems and He can restore Flowers in our life.                                                               The special things about the months of spring are all the new life around us. Fruit trees blossom, tulips, daffodils new foliage all around. God does that in our lives, also. He can change beauty from the ashes. All we need to do is ask Him. We cannot change the situation, but God will always walk with us through the trials.

Proverbs 3:5&6. Trust in the Lord with all thine heart and lean not to thine own understanding. In all thy ways acknowledge Him, and He will direct thy paths.
