There is power in prayer, when the prayers go up the blessings come down. That is so true because I have experience that so many, many times in my life. But we must wait on the Lord. However sometimes when I pray to Jesus my Father I take back my crucibles from the Master and then try to fix them on my own and I always make such a mess. But what I discover is that when I take back my crucibles with me and tried to fix them myself my father do not have them to work on. Therefore there is no answer coming from God and now I have a bigger mess for God to fix. But nothing is too big for my God. This shows I dont have no patience, can’t wait, forgetting that Patience is virtue. My grandmother use to say ‘patient man ride donkey’ which I have proven to be so true. Now as I continue through life’s journey with the help of the Holy Spirit I am learning to be patient and wait on God who is Faithful and His words are true. I am holding on to His promises and ”Rejoicing in hope, patient in tribulation, continuing steadfastly in prayer; (Romans 12: 12 NKJV) Prayer can move mountains .’Jesus answered and said unto them, Verily I say unto you, If ye have faith, and doubt not, ye shall not only do this which is done to the fig tree, but also if ye shall say unto this mountain, Be thou removed, and be thou cast into the sea; it shall be done. And all things, whatsoever ye shall ask in prayer, believing, ye shall receive”(Matthew21:21-22) NKJV. Every prayer that is sent up to God is heard and answered. Sometimes it’s not the answer we want and sometimes it’s not answered right away. ”Call upon me in the day of trouble I will deliver thee, and thou shalt glorify me”.(Psalm 50:15 NKJV) We just have to offer our sincere heartfelt prayer to Him. Put our trust in God and have faith in God. Pray, believing, trusting, hoping, and holding on to the hand of God’s Mighty Power and we will be more than conquerors. There is power in prayer because God is an AWESOME God. He said we are to ‘ask and it shall be given to us’Read Matt 7:7-11 http://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=matthew%207:7-11&version=KJV. Whenever we pray we are to believe that God will answer, He said ”Therefore I say to you, whatever things you ask when you pray, believe that you receive them, and you will have them”, (Mark 11:24 ) KJV………..
