YOUR PRAYER IS NEVER IN VAIN
(Matthew 7:7-12)
Our problem with praying is
disbelief and concern with regard to whether our prayer is answered or not,
whether it will be answered or not. The truth is that all prayers are answered.
With this in mind, Jesus gives us the confidence to ask and receive, seek and
find, knock and have the door opened.
In this holy season of prayers,
we are encouraged to pray with faith. We are called upon not to give up. We
should not relent. Do you feel your prayers have not been answered all along?
The Lord is saying today that He will grant your petitions. Present your
intentions to Him today. Let God know your worries. Disclose your problems to
God.
Pray all the time. Do not be
discouraged. Do not get tired. Do not stop no matter the challenge. Your prayer
is not a waste of time. It is indeed efficacious. Every condition has a prayer
format. Let no situation or mood make you lose interest in praying. When happy
sing praise, when in sin ask for mercy, when in trouble call for divine
assistance. The Lord assures that such prayers will never go unattended.
God will make you receive what
you are asking for this season. God will open doors of blessings for you and
your family. You will find whatever you
have lost especially the spiritual values.
LET US PRAY
I believe You Oh Lord that my
prayers will never be in vain. And so in faith, I have come to ask that I may
receive your grace to move on. I have come to seek that I may find the way that
leads to happiness in you. I have come to knock that I may be received into the
joy of knowing You as my personal Lord and Savior and entering into a loving
and lasting peaceful relationship with you. I
thank you for I know you will never fail me. Grant our prayers Almighty
God through Christ our Lord. Amen.
God bless your Thursday (First
Week of Lent)
