Greetings My Friends;
Well it's that time of year again, when just about everyone makes New Year's resolutions. We have the best intentions when we make them, but usually because of human nature we usually fail. That's nothing to feel guilty about or feel bad about it is just common and if we accept it as such ,there you go.
I'm going to tell you about what I call a super prayer. It's nothing like a New Year's resolution. It is a prayer for specific things, which might even include some of those resolutions you made.
About two years ago my wife and I sat down and decided to take advantage of what the Lord said he would do for us. As it is written in the Bible "whatever you ask the Father in My name, believing, you will receive what you ask."
We took one afternoon, and made a list of things we were concerned about, or wanted for one reason or another. We came up with a list that included 10 items. That was a little over a year ago. So far seven of the items have manifested. I honestly have to admit, that we really stretched the point on some of them, because our thought was, if God's promises are real and nothing is impossible,it is a no brainer. And we did believe His promises are real.
I will now describe the process we used in writing this prayer. First we took what was very important to us, no matter how impossible it seemed. We believed what the Bible said and we more or less put God under the gun. That may not be the best way to describe it, but in fact that's what it was. Maybe our thinking was a little fuzzy, but we were going to find out once and for all what this faith thing was all about.
We made a list of every single thing that we wanted to see changed in our lives. When we finished the list, we took it to the Lord in writing. We listed some Scriptures that backed up what we were doing. Matthew 21:22 "and whatever thing you ask in prayer, believing you will receive". 2 Corinthians 5:7 "for we walk by faith, not by sight". Mark 9:23 "Jesus said to him, if you can believe, all things are possible to him who believes". 1 Peter 5:7 "casting all your cares on Him, for He cares for you".
I could go on and on with Scripture backing up what we are talking about, but you really don't need more than I have given you. It is very important that you write this prayer out. Write the prayer as if you were speaking to the Lord in person. Tell Him how you feel and why. Put everything down in this letter to God, your petition and Scriptures to back up your faith. Naturally when you finish, thank Him and praise Him.
Read this letter to God as a prayer. Again remind Him that you trust Him. Be sure to read it out loud. You must hear yourself say everything in the letter.
Every day, first thing in the morning and the last thing at night, repeat everything in the letter only this time say it out loud, as thanksgiving for already receiving what you ask. You will find that as you say the words and say that you believe, you will reach a point where there is no doubt in your mind you have what you say.
If it takes a little while, for any item to manifest, just relax, it is in the works. God does not go back on His Word. If He said it, He will do it. If a little doubt creeps in once in a while just tell satan that it is his doubt and not yours. If you truly put all of your care and trust in the Lord, he will never fail you.
That really is all there is to it. It doesn't have to be elaborate, very wordy, or anything like that. Just tell Him what's in your heart remind Him of His Word and thank Him for making it happen.
God Bless You And Remember
Jesus Loves You
Prayer of Salvation;
"Oh God in Heaven, I believe with all of my heart that Jesus has been raised from the dead. I receive Your Word, and I repent of sin. I renounce the past. Come into my heart, Lord Jesus. I receive my forgiveness. I receive the new birth, cleansed and washed in the word and in the precious blood of Jesus. Fill me with Your Spirit, in Jesus name. Amen"
This will be the back bone of my online Ministry. All are welcome to interact with each other while learning about God, the wonderful blessings he gives us and his compassionate forgiveness. I will give a verse from the Bible then explain in real world examples the meaning.
