?!?! Pray
Prayer is a primary barometer of our faith. Don't have enough faith? Pray!
Have faith in a God that works miracles and responds to our cries? Pray!
Feel like you're not sure all the promises of God are true? Pray!
Have overwhelming needs and concerns that all but crush the life from you? Pray!
Stuck in habitual sin and trouble resisting temptation? Watch and Pray!
THE GOD OF THE UNIVERSE PERSONALLY ATTENDS TO EVERY PRAYER OF HIS SAINTS. Bow down on your knees and observe
how Jesus Christ will lift you up.
James 5:13-18 NLT
13 Are any of you suffering hardships? You should pray. Are any of you happy? You should sing praises.
14 Are any of you sick? You should call for the elders of the church to come and pray over you, anointing you with oil in the name of the Lord.
15 Such a prayer offered in faith will heal the sick, and the Lord will make you well. And if you have committed any sins, you will be forgiven.
16 Confess your sins to each other and pray for each other so that you may be healed. The earnest prayer of a righteous person has great power and produces wonderful results.
17 Elijah was as human as we are, and yet when he prayed earnestly that no rain would fall, none fell for three and a half years!
18 Then, when he prayed again, the sky sent down rain and the earth began to yield its crops.
"Men may spurn our appeals, reject our message, oppose our arguments, despise our persons, but are helpless against our prayers." Baxter
