WHAT PRAYER REALLY IS

Prayer is not telling God what to do, because he already knows your need, but prayer is agreeing with what God said in his word. Sure, and I want to correct this impression in the mind of many people, because if you know what prayer really is, then you'll know what to pray and how to pray.

Jesus said in Matthew 6:7-8, But when ye pray, use not vain repetitions, as the heathen do: for they think that they shall be heard for their much speaking. Be not ye therefore like unto them: for your Father knoweth what things ye have need of, before ye ask him.

Thus, when you pray, find out what God says about your situation in his word, agree with it, and begin to thank him for it, and you'll see the manifestation of it. Yes, prayer works, but you must know how to pray in order to get results.

May God's will be done in your life as you begin to pray rightly in Jesus name. You are blessed. Jesus loves you and I do too.

FORSAKING THE MESSAGE OF THE CROSS

The Spirit of the Lord has made it known to me that many preachers of nowadays had forsaken the message of the cross which is supposed to be the focal point of every Gospel message, and have replaced them with the message of prosperity. As a matter of fact, you hardly hear about repentance in many churches again. 

Paul said in 1 Corinthians 1.17-18, For Christ sent me not to baptize, but to preach the gospel: not with wisdom of words, lest the cross of Christ should be made of none effect. For the preaching of the cross is to them that perish foolishness; but unto us which are saved it is the power of God.

Certainly, the message that Jesus gave to us was that of repentance, and not of prosperity, and this repentance could only come through the message of the cross. So, as you go to church today, if you find yourself in a place where only prosperity is what they are talking about all the time, instead of repentance, you better run for your life, because the preacher has abandoned the actual message. 

May God help you to seek first the kingdom of God and his righteousness, so that all other things could be added unto you in Jesus name. Have a wonderful and worry-free Sunday. You are blessed. Jesus loves you and I do too.

ONLY VERY FEW PEOPLE KNOWS WHAT GOD CAN DO

I've noticed that right from the beginning of creation until now, God has never taken side with the majority, and only very few people have been able to discover how God works.
Many people might be in a place, or in a church, but very few among them will actually know the things about God and what God can do in every situation. 

In Numbers 13, Moses sent out 12 spies to go and view the promise land, 10 of them came back believing that they cannot possess the land because of what they saw, but only 2 of them, Joshua and Caleb actually knew what God can do, and despite what they saw, because they knew about God, they believed him and were able to trust him, and God worked for them.

Similarly, many people might be in a place or in a church today, and very few of them will be able to know the things about God, and be able to trust God with their situations. So, are you among the few that know God, and would you trust him with your situations today? 

Sure, If you are one of the few who know your God, begin to rejoice because the Lord your God is with you. Daniel 11:32 says, Those who know their God shall be strong and do exploit. Yes, you shall do exploit in Jesus name. You are blessed. Jesus loves you and I do too.

REKINDLE YOU TRUST IN GOD

Do you have any problem that have lingered so long, and is about to make you loose your hope and trust in God? Or, have you started to question God because of your situation? 

David said in Psalm 37.25-26, I have been young, and now am old; yet have I not seen the righteous forsaken, nor his seed begging bread. He is ever merciful, and lendeth; and his seed is blessed.
Sure, as long as you are trying everyday to do God's will, God will surely visit you at his appointed time, and you'll surely rejoice. 

Now, may God give you the strength to hang on till your blessings arrive in Jesus name. You are blessed. Jesus loves you and I do too.
