The Faithful God.

THE FAITHFUL GOD.

Today's Verse “No testing has overtaken you that is not common to everyone. God is faithful, and he will not let you be tested beyond your strength, but with the testing he will also provide the way out so that you may be able to endure it.” - 1 Corinthians 10:13

The verse speaks of three truths about trials. First, trials are common to all. It means that you are not the only one who is undergoing that particular trial. Others are experiencing the same or even worse. Second, let us remember that God is faithful. He will not allow us to suffer trials that are beyond our capacity. Third, just like pain, trials are temporary. God himself provides a way out. You might experience the pain for a while, but you can endure it with the assurance that soon all these things will just pass away. This verse also reminds us that when trials come, we have the assurance of victory over them. All we need to do is completely trust in God and claim the victory.

Today's Prayer Lord, thank You for being my faithful God. Yes there may be lots of trials and testing that will come along my way, but I have a great and faithful God, who will help me get through all of it. Help me Lord to trust You more and more each day. Amen. RELATED TOPICS: HOW TO OVERCOME STEALING IN THE SANCTUARY OF GOD WITH PRAYERS.

Is It Wrong To Pray For Someone's Well Being Without Their Consent?

IS IT WRONG TO PRAY FOR SOMEONES WELL BEING WITHOUT THEIR CONSENT?

Biblical point of view, there is nothing wrong to pray for someone’s well being without their consent. If it is wrong, there would not be a prayer called, prayer of intersession.

God gives us instructions to pray for others in several places in the Bible. The apostle James tells us to “pray for one another, that you may be healed” (James 5:16).

The apostle Paul encourages us to intercede for Church members and ministers, “praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, being watchful to this end with all perseverance and supplication for all the saints—and for me, that utterance may be given to me, that I may open my mouth boldly to make known the mystery of the gospel, for which I am an ambassador in chains” (Ephesians 6:18-20).

Paul exhorts us “that supplications, prayers, intercessions, and giving of thanks be made for all men, for kings and all who are in authority, that we may lead a quiet and peaceable life in all godliness and reverence” (1 Timothy 2:1-2, emphasis added throughout).

Jesus Christ even commanded, “Love your enemies, bless those who curse you, do good to those who hate you, and pray for those who spitefully use you and persecute you” (Matthew 5:44, emphasis added).

Why does God want us to pray for others? Because intercessory prayer reflects God’s own character of outgoing love and mercy. God wants us to think like He does, and praying for others helps us to think beyond ourselves and to grow in compassion for others.

Why does God want us to pray for others? Because intercessory prayer reflects God’s own character of outgoing love and mercy. God wants us to think like He does, and praying for others helps us to think beyond ourselves and to grow in compassion for others.

God compares prayer with sweet-smelling incense that pleases Him (Revelation 5:8).

Misconceptions about intercessory prayer

Intercessory prayer is not a numbers game. God does not have to wait until 10 or 20 or 100 people pray about a situation in order to intervene. Prayer is not a vote or petition that God has to act on if enough people “sign” it. Our prayers can’t force God to do anything. He can and does act when the time is best, whether one or a million pray about it.

Also, intercessory prayer is not something we should do to try to earn points with God so we can collect when something bad happens to us. Our motivation must be love—outgoing, unselfish concern.

What about the person seeking prayers? Can a person ask other believers to pray for him and then find it unnecessary to pray himself? No, we can’t delegate prayer. Prayer is part of our personal relationship with God, and so we must go to Him fervently ourselves, whether or not others are praying for us.

How to intercede in prayer

Prayer is a vital part of our communication with our loving Father in heaven. In the Bible He tells us how we can pray most effectively—in a way that pleases Him. Here are a few biblical principles for effective intercessory prayer. We should pray:

• From the heart.
• Regularly. In what is often called the Lord’s Prayer, Jesus told us to pray, “Give us this day our daily bread” . We should pray for our needs and the needs of others every day.
• In detail. God knows everything; but He wants us to come to Him with all our specific requests because He likes to hear from us and to know what is important to us. The Bible compares our prayers to incense, and God loves prayers that are like “sweet incense beaten fine” (Leviticus 16:12).
• With faith, knowing that God has all power and loves the people we are praying for.
• With love. Godly love is totally unselfish and is the essence of God’s character .
• Fervently. James 5:16 tells us “the effective, fervent prayer of a righteous man avails much.”
• With a desire to help where we can. This might include physical help and encouragement. Cards, calls and visits might be helpful. It is not wrong to tell a person you are praying for him or her if it will help encourage the person.
• Occasionally with fasting. When a situation is very serious or hits close to home for you, you may decide to fast and pray to draw close to God to present your supplication to Him.

Study biblical examples of intercessory prayer

The Bible gives many examples of people praying for others, and we can learn a lot by studying and meditating on these examples. Here are just a few:

• Abraham interceded for the people of Sodom for the sake of his nephew Lot (Genesis 18:23-33).
• Moses pleaded for God’s mercy for the sinning people of Israel (Exodus 32:9-14; Numbers 14:11-20).
• Daniel made supplication to God for his people (Daniel 9:3-19).
• The apostle Peter prayed for Dorcas (Acts 9:36-41).
• The apostle Paul prayed for the people he served (Romans 1:9-10; 10:1; Ephesians 1:15-19; Philippians 1:3-11; 1 Thessalonians 3:9-13).

In all, use powerful prayer points to pray. Surely, God will answers your prayers. Amen

“Through the love of God our savior,all will be well. Free and changeless is His favor. All is well. Precious is the blood that healed us, perfect is the grace that sealed us, all must be well in the name of Jesus.”

“Thou we pass through tribulation. All is well in His name. Ours is such a full salvation. All is well. Happy, still in God confiding, fruitful,if in Christ abiding, Holy, through the spirit guiding, all must be well.”

“We expect a bright tomorrow through our prayers, all will be well. Faith can sing through days of sorrow, All will be well. Christ our every need supplying, whether living now or dying, All must be well in the name of Jesus. Amen.

What The Bible Says About Forgiveness And Healing.

WHAT THE BIBLE SAYS ABOUT FORGIVENESS AND HEALING.

Today's Verse “If my people who are called by my name humble themselves, pray, seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin and heal their land.” 2 Chronicles 7:14

The verse speaks of God’s conditions for His people in order to receive forgiveness and healing. God’s condition is comprised by different sets of changes. The change of attitude (humble themselves,) a change of communication (pray,) a change of focus (seek my face,) and a change of mind (turn from their wicked ways.) When these changes are accomplished, it results in a change of action and character. This reminds us that we can never receive God’s promise of forgiveness and healing if we will not make the decision to change. God is holy and righteous, but at the same time, He is gracious and merciful also. That is why He gives us opportunities to change even if He has no obligation to do it. That’s God’s wonderful love and grace.

Today's Prayer Lord, help me to change and forgive me for all my sins. Thank you for your love, and grace, despite my shortcomings and failures. Help me to change my life and to love you more.
