TODAY'S SCRIPTURE:
"The earnest (heartfelt, continued) prayer of a righteous man makes tremendous power available [dynamic in its working]"
James 5:16
TODAY'S WORD:
God loves it when you come boldly to Him! When we pray with an attitude of faith and expectancy, it shows that we believe God and His Word and that opens the door for Him to move on our behalf.
Today's verse tells us that when we pray earnestly and continually that it makes tremendous power available. Think about a little child asking his mother for something he really wants. That child doesn't just ask once. Or twice. He asks continually! He doesn't just walk away if he doesn't get an answer right away. That child builds his case and gives every reason he should get what he is asking for! Remember this is not just a single wish that is blown away with the wind.
Selah people' and friends scripture tells us to come to God with the faith of a child.
It's not that we have to beg Him, but our determination is an expression of our faith in His goodness. When we build our case with the Word of God, we are setting ourselves up to partake of His divine blessing.
Today, my brothers and sisters whatever you need, make your requests known to God. Come to Him with the faith of child. Pray earnestly and continually and watch His power work on your behalf! As we have entered into the season of Lent don't just give up something, give Him your heartfelt prayer and those needs will be answered.
OUR PRAYER FOR TODAY:
"Father God, today I come boldly thanking You for Your goodness and faithfulness in my life even when I have come up short. I lift up my heart in faith to You knowing that my earnest prayers open the door for Your power to move on my behalf! In Jesus' Name. Amen."
In Christ service,
