Prayer Works! I Know It Does

Ξ June 1st, 2008 | → 3 Comments | ∇ Praise, Prayer |

Welcome back!

It has been a crazy couple of weeks and so I did not get on here to post like I wanted to do. My husband was in the hospital last week for a heart cath. This week, he went back to the hospital with chest pains. Both things could have been difficult to disastrous but they were not. We believe that because of our prayer cover, everything came out okay.

There are people that will now say that it was likely to do that anyway. Perhaps. But we live with the belief that God is watching over us. With that in mind, we pray about our circumstance because we have all been there when we did not do so. See, I called some folks in another state who are prayer warriors. They, in turn, call others. We put these things on the website so that others can pray. And someone called a television ministry for prayer as well. With that network of prayer, how could we not see good things happening?

Jesus Himself went off to pray. If He did this, shouldn’t we do likewise? But often, we find our lives taking over and not allowing the time to pray. Often, we find that the only time we pray these days is when we eat…if then. Sometimes, the reason we cannot pray or don’t is because we have no idea what to pray about. God gave us a solution to that:

(Rom 8:26) Likewise the Spirit also helps our infirmities. For we do not know what we should pray for as we ought, but the Spirit Himself makes intercession for us with groanings which cannot be uttered.

The Holy Spirit will help us when we need to pray but cannot because we do not know what to pray. Many of those who prayed for my husband had no idea why or what they were praying about. All they knew was that someone needed the prayer. We have discovered that people we do not know are praying for us. Sometimes, it’s because they read our blog posts. Sometimes it was because of the ministry that was called. Other times, it is because our friends and family tell others and they tell someone else. The prayer network is awesome and all led by God, not people. Isn’t that fantastic? It means that people are not getting the credit for this. Awesome!!

So, if you should find yourself in need of prayer, call someone. Get them praying about your situation. If you do not have anyone to call, please feel free to let me know your prayer needs and I will post them here on this blog. We are here to serve!

Some of the pictures there are very interesting, like did you know the european union made their headquarters look like the tower of babel. weird. also a lady on a beast is on all there stamps and currency and they have a lady on a red beast mural in their headquarters. She is up in the air and all the people are worshiping her.

      I plan to visit those sites as soon as time permits. There was one thing you said that fascinated me. The thing about tickle spots. WOW! Never thought of that and never would have. That is going to have me talking to God for a while, I can tell you!!!
