Effective Prayer – Our God is a Benevolent Father – “Abba, Father”. Do you have the relationship?

Dear all,
May the LORD give you peace in your heart and lead you into the path of His Righteousness!
Word:

Matthew 7:7-11 New Living Translation (NLT) – Effective Prayer

7 “Keep on asking, and you will receive what you ask for. Keep on seeking, and you will find. Keep on knocking, and the door will be opened to you. 8 For everyone who asks, receives. Everyone who seeks, finds. And to everyone who knocks, the door will be opened. 9 “You parents—if your children ask for a loaf of bread, do you give them a stone instead? 10 Or if they ask for a fish, do you give them a snake? Of course not! 11 So if you sinful people know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your heavenly Father give good gifts to those who ask him.

Thought: Loving and being loved: Our God is a Benevolent Father – “Abba, Father”. Do you have the relationship?

So you have not received a spirit that makes you fearful slaves. Instead, you received God’s Spirit when he adopted you as his own children. Now we call him, “Abba, Father.” Romans 8:15

Matthew 6:25-34 – The Cure for Anxiety

 Look at the birds of the air that they do not sow, nor reap nor gather into barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not worth much more than they? And who of you by being worried can add a single hour to his life? 34 “So do not worry about tomorrow; for tomorrow will [i]care for itself. [j]Each day has enough trouble of its own.

Thought: Why worry?

From the rising to the setting of the sun, God’s name will be exalted among the nations – Malachi 1:11

Do not forget your Father in Heaven (Romans 12). He loves us more than we could ever imagine! When we have the Lordship of Christ Jesus in our day-to-day life, certainly we can face tomorrow with the confidence we have in Him.

Thought:  Only God deserves to be glorified and lifted up in worship.

Lift up Prayers of celebration in three ways:

  1. Celebrate God’s Kingdom as it breaks into this world.
  2. Rejoice in God’s power as you relinquish your own.
  3. Declare God’s glory by bowing your knees, lifting your voice, and giving Him praise.

Prayer and sinning will never live together in the same heart. Prayer will consume sin, or sin will choke prayer

Greetings in the name of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.

Word: Matthew 6:14-15

For if you forgive other people when they sin against you, your heavenly Father will also forgive you. But if you do not forgive others their sins, your Father will not forgive your sins.

Quotes from Andrew Murray  (1828 – 1917)  – Minister and the man of God:

The man who mobilizes Christian Church to pray will make the greatest contribution to world evangelization in history.

Each time, before you intercede, be quiet first, and worship God in his glory. Think of what He can do, and how he delights to hear the prayer of his redeemed people. Think of your place and privilege in Christ, and expect great things.

Make Every Effort – Ultimately depending on God – Part II

Dear all,

Greetings in the mighty name of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.

Word:

Through these he has given us his very great and precious promises, so that through them you may participate in the divine nature, having escaped the corruption in the world caused by evil desires. For this very reason, make every effort to add to your faith goodness; and to goodness, knowledge; and to knowledge, self-control; and to self-control, perseverance; and to perseverance, godliness; II Peter 1: 4-6

Therefore, my brothers and sisters, make every effort to confirm your calling and election. For if you do these things, you will never stumble, II Peter 1:10

But in keeping with his promise we are looking forward to a new heaven and a new earth, where righteousness dwells. So then, dear friends, since you are looking forward to this, make every effort to be found spotless, blameless and at peace with him. Bear in mind that our Lord’s patience means salvation, just as our dear brother Paul also wrote you with the wisdom that God gave him. II Peter 3:13-15

Thought:

Peter concludes this brief letter as he began, urging his readers to grow in the knowledge of the Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. Every day we need to draw closer to Christ Jesus so that we will be prepared to stand for truth in any and all circumstances.
