My Bible Verse of The Day - 1-21-25
1 Thessalonians 5:17 (NKJV) 17 pray without ceasing…
Why? Because prayer is so very powerful.
One of the things I want to focus on in my walk with God is to increase my awareness of the situations and people that need prayer.
No matter what we are doing, we can always push ourselves to go even further, and to go deeper.
If we are being told in God’s word to pray without ceasing, I’m there!
I want to know what concerns Him. I want see what He sees and agree with Him for complete victory!
We can get so caught up in routines and lifestyles that we totally miss important prayer time. Prayer that would make a difference. Prayer that would save lives. Prayer that will bring healing. Prayer that would put food on someone’s table, or finances to pay for their bills. Prayer that would save a marriage.
Praying for others is so important. But, knowing who to pray for can be hard at times. If we take a few minutes and simply ask God who needs prayer today, within a short time He may lay someone or some situation on our heart.
We must train ourselves to always be ready to lift someone up in prayer. And if we can’t pray right at that very moment, for whatever reason, we need to write down the name or situation that comes to us and then make sure to pray when we can.
This is a good way to remember, because sometimes, with the busyness of life, we will forget.
We all need prayer.
Sometimes we are so exhausted from whatever battle we are facing, having someone join in and pick up where we might have left off makes a difference in the outcome!
James 5:16 (NKJV) 16 Confess your trespasses to one another, and pray for one another, that you may be healed. The effective, fervent prayer of a righteous man avails much.
Be that person. Be ready and alert. God is faithful to lead us in praying for people and situations around us that need help.
Amen.
