Dear Grand Kids,
Today is our National Day of Prayer. Even though we hear about prayer all the time from one source or another many of us don't realize how powerful prayer really is. I think that's because prayers aren't always answered immediately and to our expectation, but we forget that God knows what's best for us and He answers prayer accordingly. So, when we pray we need to first find out what is the will of God for our particular needs.
Don't ask God for lots and lots of money. That is one of the most prayed for things that seems never to get answered. Instead, ask Him for an idea that will bring you the financial rewards you desire. Ask Him to be your Provider. God knows what you need before you even ask and be a giver, that gives Him a reason to provide for you abundantly. His Word tells us that He "loves a cheerful giver."
If you are in need healing in your mind and body, ask Him and then thank Him for being your Healer. He wants all His children to be healthy and to feel good in mind and body so we can serve Him with joy and peace of mind, and we will all have to serve somebody, it may as well be our Creator, our Heavenly Father. Why would we even consider serving anyone or anything else?
If we call on Him to be our Protector He will send angels to guide us on our paths without us even knowing about it. He will cause us to avoid trouble and association with those who may do us harm. What is seen is temporal or temporary, what is unseen is eternal or forever. We are on the other side of eternity in this life and when we leave these bodies of flesh and blood we cross over into the Spirit realm which is unseen and forever.
And always remember to pray in the name of Jesus, Yeshua, in Hebrew. It is because of Him that we all have a chance for eternal life in heaven. Jesus is the key that unlocks the door to everlasting life and there is no other way. If anyone tells you anything different they are mistaken!
