Prayers Are Heard and Work~

Ah Lord God! Behold, thou hast made the heaven and the earth by thy great power and stretched out arm, and there is nothing too hard for thee (Jeremiah 32:17 KJV)

Sometimes even the most devout Christian will be plagued with self-doubt or worries. There may be certain circumstances that’ll crop up in which we’ll become riddled with anxiety. However, it’s how we “handle” the scenario that’ll make the difference.

How amazing is our God?

We know we “can’t” do it alone; we need help from the Father. For nothing is impossible or too big for Him. Our God is bigger than any of our problems. When we go to Him in supplication and prayer, He’ll respond. Prayers are answered, especially intercessory uniformed prayers. The smoke rises straight up to the heavens. Our God reigns on heaven and earth. He’s the power before the path in which we walk.  While praying, focus on His greatness…our problems will diminish substantially. When we pray, we should reflect on His sovereign magnitude. Give praise to His umblemished character of love, compassion, and mercy.  Shout in joyful union to the One and Only God.  He will always be here for His children and never desert us.

How amazing is our God?

Entire families in the Bible came together in prayer, in fact prayer had a central and crucial part in the early churches; “And they continued steadfastly in the apostles’ doctrine and fellowship, and in breaking of bread, and in prayers.” (Acts 2:42 KJV).  God wants to involve others in praying. Sometimes it might be what we’re praying for, or a different outcome, but most important, it’ll be according to His perfect timing. He might ask us to take a step of faith. He uses any opportunity to strengthen our faith and trust in Him. Prayer brings us into God’s presence so we can receive strength and direction for life’s challenges. Don’t be afraid or discouraged, trust Him… and be still and know He is God.

How amazing is our God? Well, give Him a try and see for yourself…
