Please say a prayer for Bob’s wife Teresa. She is in the hospital, due to a Pulmonary Embolism in serious condition. Our prayers go out for her and we have faith God will restore her.
I receive prayer requests all of the time. My prayer list is often very long. At my former church there is a group of men who are referred to as prayer warriors who routinely pray for those in need. (I used to be one of them.) Prayer works! I cannot begin to give you all of the examples in my life and others whereby I personally saw the miraculous results of fervent prayer by those who love the Lord. The Bible is full of examples of miraculous results of prayer as well.
FYI God always’ hears our prayers. Some believe that because they do not instantly receive what they desire that their prayer is unanswered. We must understand that the answer is not always yes. Sometimes it is no and sometimes the answer is wait a while. God answers prayer in such an intelligent fashion that it is utterly amazing to me. I have seen many times when He comes up with solutions that only could have been supernaturally conceived and often when I see it the very hair on my neck stands up. (Spiritual goose-bumps)
God in His infinite wisdom knows what we need and supplies it. If your young child asked for a beer or tried to touch a hot stove you would not allow it. A good parent would not give their children everything they ask for and neither does God.
The Bible tells us to be persistent and to pray constantly’; not just about the important, major’ issues, but we should come to our Father with everything. Make prayer an important part of your life and become a prayer warrior yourself. God wants this daily fellowship. One need only read the Bible to understand this about our Father.
Psalm 35:15
The eyes of the lord are on the righteous,
And His ears are open to their cry.
