Prayer Changes Things

Prayer changes things and we are assured that as we pray God will help us and guide us.  In the book of James He said that Elijah was a man like us. That means that Elijah was subjected to all human frailties like us.  One minute he is on the mountain the next minute he was hiding from a woman.  How many times we have allowed fear and circumstances to get us down even to the point of paralyzing us.  Elijah prayed and God responded to his prayer by stopping and sending rain. Even so God will respond to us as we pray. We don't have to be afraid. 

Prayer is talking to God with love. It is not how long you pray, how loud you pray but how earnest you pray. It is all a 'heart thing'. God sees our hearts. Jesus said "go into the closet and pray" and He will answer you openly. Pray for and about everything. I know that God loves and cares for all of His children and He is just waiting for us to call on Him. He says that "we should call on Him and  He will answer us and show us great and mighty things." Please pray today. Even a simple prayer like "God help me" will be answered.

Ways that will help us in pushing forward: Queen Esther had a difficult situation. Her uncle's life was at stake, so she set out to do something about it but before she proceeded she used what I think is one of the greatest tools in helping us to succeed in adversity. She prayed and fasted. She told her folks to pray and fast for her. We know the results, the wickedness that was meant to destroy her and her loved ones fell back on the one who planned it. God helped her to gain the strength during this difficult time to do an unusual thing. Have a right attitude! Another...

From Minimum to Maximum

The secret to a blessed life in Christ is in the power of prayer. Any time we operate from a focus of prayer and the word, God comes through for us. If we are tired and weary he will be there for us. No amount of human effort can replace the ability of Gods Holy Spirit to strengthen, guide and take care of the negative circumstances in our lives. The desire to operate on minimum strength is tempting, but we will soon learn that we can live up to our full potential only in Christ. Any trust in our human wisdom, strength or understanding will leave us falling short. It is the life that lives in total surrender to Christ that sees maximum results. Our focus must be on prayer and knowing God. We must not only be familiar with His works but become familiar with His ways. Christ realized the necessity of knowing God for himself and seeking God for His anointing. At one time he asked God to glorify Him with the glory he had with Him from the beginning. Though He was God, He took on the l...
