God promises in His Word that when we don’t know how to pray, we have the Holy Spirit who will pray for us.
What a great blessing. He knows us better than we know ourselves and He prays for us according to God’s will.
There are times when we don’t know what to pray. Illness, tragedy, decisions about our future and many other things. We want to be in God’s will. Rest in the promise that the Spirit is praying for us.
But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him. Hebrews 11:6
The Heroes of the faith did extraordinary things in faith and obedience to God and His leading.
We sometimes forget that they were ordinary people who loved, trusted and had faith in God.
The verse for today tells us that without faith it is impossible to please God, but can you imagine what we can do through faith.
If you are lacking in faith, ask God to show you what He can do. He loves you and will help you in your uncertainty.
Faith comes by hearing and hearing by the Word of God.
Joseph, son of Jacob and Rachel. He was Rachel’s firstborn and Jacob’s eleventh son. Of all the sons, Joseph was preferred by his father, who gave him a coat of many colors. Joseph was seventeen years old, he shared with his brothers dreams of his superiority.
The brothers were jealous and sold him into slavery. They meant it for evil but God meant it for good.
Joseph was sold to the Pharaoh. Was thrown into prison. Interpreted Pharaoh’s dream and was given the blessing of being second in command in the nation of Egypt.
He was able to save his family from certain death due to famine in the land. Thus preserving the Nation of Israel.
And Joseph said unto them, Fear not: for am I in the place of God? But as for you, ye thought evil against me; but God meant it unto good, to bring to pass, as it is this day, to save much people alive.Genesis 50:19&20
When going on a trip, business or pleasure, we prepare by making sure we pack everything we may need. Proper clothing, toiletries and identification. We are looking forward to the trip with great anticipation.
We are preparing for the greatest trip we will ever take, the journey to Heaven. The preparation should be the most important thing on our minds. The first thing is salvation. No one enters Heaven without it. Then, daily Bible reading and prayer. A pure lifestyle is important, also. Are you ready for this trip?
John 3:16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.
If God gives you the privilege of traveling. Wherever you go you will see the beauty God has created.
Not only the natural beauty, but the wisdom that God gave to man to develop ways to travel. Planes, trains, boats, cars, buses and various ways we can get from one place to another.
Then, there are the wonderful man made structures. Monuments, buildings, churches and all kinds of artifacts.
If you can travel in person or see the wonders on TV, books or magazines, as a believer, it is easy to see God’s wisdom and praise Him for His wonderful creation.
