Pastor preached on the importance of prayer today. How we as a church need to be constantly praying. We can never do too much. We're in a day and age that satan is constantly crouching at our back door step, and we need to be prepared...be on guard...gird ourselves with The Armor...and pray without ceasing.
What does the Word say? Let me share with you just a few...
"If you believe, you will receive whatever you ask for in prayer." Matthew 21: 22
"They (the disciples) all joined together CONSTANTLY in prayer..." Acts 1:14
"Be joyful in hope, patient in affliction, faithful in prayer." Romans 12:12
"Do not be anxious about anything, but in EVERYTHING, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus." Philippians 4:6-7
*This verse speaks to my heart directly in the season of life I am in.
Heavenly Father...I thank You today God that Your love is never changing for us. Thank You Father, that Your mercies are new everyday. And thank You Father, that You continue to pull us close into Your Arms of Love when we need it most. Father, when we don't understand why people do things that hurt others tremendously...thank You that Your love covers all. And thank You for Your peace that settles into us like no one else can do for us. Father, I just lift up to You those hurting souls today and pray for extra strength to get them thru the coming days, weeks, and months. Shelter them under Your wings Father and whisper Your love to them daily so they may never forget that they are special...that they are so loved....that You will never leave them or forsake them in their time of need. In Jesus' Name, Amen.
Love n Hugs...Laura
