If My People......1/29/17
Romans 10:17 (KJV)
17 So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God.
Mama told me years ago:
"
The only way to catch a cold is to get around the germ!!!!"
I had the OPPORTUNITY this past week to attend a PRAYER MEETING!!!!
Not what too many Churches consider a PRAYER MEETING, but an old-fashioned, GET ON YOUR KNEES AND PRAY, PRAYER MEETING!!
I get/got EXCITED about attending a PRAYER MEETING!!!
Mama also taught me that "if I wanted to be good/smart/successful/prosperous/etc.,
to HANG AROUND good/smart/successful/prosperous/etc. People!!!
Does not our Bible teach us:
Proverbs 27:17 (KJV)
17 Iron sharpeneth iron; so a man sharpeneth the countenance of his friend.
FAITH blooms in an atmosphere of like minded BELIEVERS!!!
Our Lord and Savior taught us this TRUTH:
Matthew 18:19 (KJV)
19 Again I say unto you, That if two of you shall agree on earth as touching any thing that they shall ask, it shall be done for them of my Father which is in heaven.
PRAYER humbles the soul and quietens the mind.
David PRAYED:
Psalm 26:2 (KJV)
2 Examine me, O LORD, and prove me; try my reins and my heart.
EXAMINE-a primitive root; to
test
(especially metals); general and figurative to
investigate
:- examine, prove, tempt, try (trial).
Strong's Talking Greek & Hebrew Dictionary.
1 Peter 5:6 (KJV)
6 Humble yourselves therefore under the mighty hand of God, that he may exalt you in due time:
A PRAYER MEETING does NOT require large crowds!
Matthew 18:20 (KJV)
20 For where two or three are gathered together in my name, there am I in the midst of them.
2 Chronicles 7:14 (KJV)
14 If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land.
Too often, WE forget that the above Scripture is NOT only for political usage!!!
"14 If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray....."
"
HAVE YOU PRAYED ABOUT IT.................?????????"
James 5:16 (KJV)
16 Confess your faults one to another, and pray one for another, that ye may be healed. The effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man availeth much.
The EFFECTUAL FERVENT PRAYER of a righteous man availeth much!!!!!!
TODAY!!!!!!!!!!!!:
Philippians 4:6 (KJV)
6 Be careful for nothing; but in every thing by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God.
NOTHING is too small or too trivial to PRAY about!!!
Yesterday, my truck developed an electrical problem that I knew would cause the battery to die and leave it stranded in the driveway.
My wonderful mechanic has moved out of town and as I sat in my truck, I racked my brain trying to think of who I could call to help me.
Finding no answer, I laid my hands on the dashboard and PRAYED!
PROBLEM SOLVED!!!
TODAY, "WHATTA YA HAVE, WHATTA YA HAVE????"
Jeremiah 33:3 (KJV)
3 Call unto me, and I will answer thee, and shew thee great and mighty things, which thou knowest not.
Please KNOW today that Jesus KNOWS and CARES about YOU!!!
1 Peter 5:7 (KJV)
7 Casting all your care upon him; for he careth for you.
GOD BLESS YOU TODAY!
