One day , (and I do not believe that time
will not be a long time off) we will all finally realize and fully
understand what a terrific weapon of war, we have always had given to
us , to use against Satan and His angels.God has given this to us
freely, in our lifetime, as we wander this earth in our own
wilderness days, that one little word is "prayer."
That word is used so carelessly and used
as if wishing on a star (or like good luck or something)
it has even been made fun of, belittled by many people'
But , God wishes to hear our prayers about our problems, out of our
own mouth to His ear. Sure He knows the problems already. He has
permitted them to be there to help you to grow, but He wishes to
communicate directly with his children.
What if your own son or daughter or even your own hubby or wife or
mother or father ,' never' talk with you??? Communication is the bond
that tightens and grows stronger, making people bind together in the
glue of prayer, as does our talking with the Lord.
I have prayed for so very many people and seen the mighty hand of God
reach down with healing touches for health, bodywise and even
moneywise of friends and loved ones. I have seen souls saved
and battles won, that there was no way on earth could have ever been
accomplished by man alone. Man is not made to stand alone, the God
part is always there to hold straight and with gentle directing and
tender loving care, as we take our steps through life forward, into
the dark unknown, of each tomorrow,
But if you will only look back over your lifetime and see and
remember that so very many times, He has pulled you through the
impossible, and made ways where none was possible before. And still
you are alive and you are still HIS! What a sweet realization this
evening.
One thing for sure is: you can not cuss someone else out and then
come all mealy mouthed to the lord with prayer on your lips. He will
turn away from sin, and you will not be heard.
Tell me, would you be expecting for
God to treat you the very same as you treat all others? Well, I have
news for you, your love for God is only as much as you have for the
least of these, in God's sight.
Even the Lords prayer says "Forgive me
Lord, as I now forgive others" (in my own words, but the 23rd psalm
talks to you, read it for enlightenment.
It is a wonderful thing to pray and then listen to an all hearing and
answering God of Gods who knows all things and loves all people,
equally, regardless how unlovable we may seem to be to others.
Pray for me as I strive to draw closer
to my Lord and I shall be in prayer for all of us. Thank you for
listening and for hearing me out this beautiful sunny day in
Tennessee.
My God , He is a Jealous God and will
have none or nothing above Him in your heart. I have had a good rest
period and a whole lot of time to think, while laid up in the
hospital with the only way to look was UP (and I have done my share
of that, also).
I write this day praising God for this
life He has given to me to live and I do not feel cheated, or that my
Lord has ever let me down, because as I took stock of my living, I
saw it was good, and when He was not felt near to me, guess who it
was that had let go. It was not the father, it was the child.
I thank Him for being there for me through and in and out of each
valley of my life.
He has celebrated with me the good
times
cried with me the bad times,
held my hand in the scary times
always had his ear bent for receiving my cry for help for the many
times of love being sent to Him in praise.with songs, poetry and
music,
just plain old love for Him being the creator of this old lady
named...
