JUST PRAY?

If we only knew how much power we have available to us by prayer we'd probably hurt ourselves with it. Maybe that's why very few of us ever learn how to use it. The bible says, "In faith believing...." that means when we pray we must believe that we receive even though what we want God to do for us has not yet manifested its self. This is not that easy. I believe it takes practice and you can't do it all by yourself. When two or more come into agreement on anything they ask for Jesus said God will do it...Matthew 18:19-20  Now the question is, do you really believe that? Again this is a problem with most of us for obvious reasons, the biggest reason is our personal beliefs. If we are believing wrong our faith will be weak or even non-existent. So, what we need to do is adjust how and what we choose to believe. It takes practice and it's not that easy but with the favor of God on our side and accurate information we can change our way of thinking and believing to the point that one day we will wake up in the morning to a whole new life and God will have answered our prayers in every way. We just need to follow His instruction manual, not question it, and watch it work in amazing ways. Expectation, expectation, expectation that cannot be stressed enough. Keen expectation, that takes practice too.
If what we ask God for lines up with the things He promises then we will have it, He will see to it. So, when we pray let's pray for love, joy, peace, freedom, wholeness, abundance, all the blessings of Abraham in the Old Testament. God knows exactly what it will take for us to have these things and He will see that we have it. If we believe these things with our hearts and minds and meditate, concentrate and contemplate, with faith believing then then just be still and know that He is God and He is the rewarder of those who diligently seek Him then we will see things happen.
 I am living proof of this power because God has blessed me with many answered prayers although I am still a work in progress and I have my own giants yet to slay let me encourage you to learn about this great Creator God and experience the power that can only come from Him and His amazing grace for us. Read the Word of God every day, listen to the Word, watch teachers and preachers who teach the Word, say the Word out loud, think about the Word, in this way we honor God. When we honor Him He will honor and favor us over those who don't and will make good things happen for us with the power of His Holy Spirit, who is awesome by the way..........I'm rambling again.

SCRIPTURE FOR TODAY

"Again, I tell you that if two of you on earth agree about anything you ask for, it will be done for you by my Father in heaven. For when two or three come together in my name, there am I with them."
Matthew 18:19-20
