VERSE FOR TODAY: Let us then approach the throne of grace with confidence, do that we May receive mercy find grace to help us in our time of need (Hebrew 4:16, New International Version).
HYMN FOR TODAY: "I Must Tell Jesus"
If you keep a prayer journal, look at your requests. Now review the answers. This may have you shaking your head in wonder and praise. God truly amazes.
God actually listens to us! The Creator of the universe allows us to come before His throne, and heard us as we pour out the desires of our hearts! And not only does He hear He--cares.
Is your prayer for physical healing? Tell Him. He cares. Is your prayer for problem at work or with family? Tell Him. He cares. Does your heart bleed for the unsaved? Tell Him. His heart is bleeding also. Do you want to walk closer to Him? Tell Him. He wants that too. Do you just want to say, "Thanks for a lovely day? Say it. It's one of His gift to you.
Prayer---it's joyful. It can be painful. It can be thrilling. It can be hard work. Prayer brings results. It makes us grow. It intensifies our joy. It frees our sorrow. Prayer is effective. Prayer is essential.
As we spend more time with God, we discover what His perfect will is. That, in turn, helps to mold our will. When we seek what God wants and believe He can and will accomplish it, or amazement will never ever cease.
Praise God for the gift of prayer!
PRAYER THOUGHTS: Father, we are privileged beyond words. You allow us to come boldly before Your throne and listen to us. This is truly wonderful. May we, in turn, listen to You. Thank You! Amen.
