Let's Put our Faith in God!

I tell you the truth, if anyone says to this mountain, "Go, throw yourself into the sea,' and does not doubt in his heart but believes that what he says will happen, it will be done for him.Therefore I tell you, whatever you ask for in prayer, believe that you have received it, and it will be yours." Mark 11: 23-24

The above words were spoken by Jesus Christ Himself. Jesus is the truth and the life. It does not get any clearer than this: When you pray believe you receive and you shall have it. The Bible says that without faith it is impossible to please God. Faith is very important to God. The life of a believer is primarily a life of faith. The Christian walk is a faith-based walk. And how to do we reach God? By praying. The Bible tells us in 1 Thessalonians 5:17 to pray without ceasing. The Bible does not say that certain things are too big to ask for in prayer. Jesus said specifically that you will have whatever you ask for in prayer.

Friend, the prayer of faith will heal the sick and set captives free. Faith never makes a conclusion based on our bodies and how we feel and see. It does not matter if the pain is still there after you pray. When you pray believe that you receive. it does not matter if the pain worsen. Believe you receive. As a matter of fact, whenever I pray about a situation in my life it always seems to become worse right before my victory is manifested. If it is a sickness the pain intensify. If it a certain food or a certain sin I am trying to abstain from, my flesh aches for it to the point of tears, and if it is a broken heart, it becomes unbelievably more painful. It never fails. It happens all the time. When that occurs we must stand on the word of God. That is why it is vital that the believer lives by faith. It never matters what it looks like, what you see, what other people see, what the banks are saying and what the doctors say. When you pray believe that you receive and stead fast to your confession and hold on to the truth of God and you shall have victory. Faith works. Prayer works. Jesus will not fail you.

Let us pray: Father how grateful we are for another opportunity to praise you and give you the honor that you so richly deserve! We thank you for your grace and mercy. We thank you for being infinitely good. We thank you for remaining who you are through the ages. You say to come to you when heavily burdened and you will give us rest. Father here we are once again at your feet. We have no other place to go. We bring it all to you. Father we need you to ignite a fire in us for your kingdom. Fill us Father with compassion for those dying without you. Father we need healing in our bodies (be specific in the area of your body that you need to be touched). We need healing for our siblings (name the person). We need a breakthrough in our finances and our loved ones (specific-mortgage, car, tuition). Father we need that job we have been searching for so vehemently. We need our loved ones to be saved (names). We need a breakthrough in our love life. We need restoration of broken relationships and restoration of joy. We need our children to be obedient and to excel in schools (name the children). We trust that you will do just what you said you would do Father. We believe that we are healed. Our loved ones are healed and delivered. We believe a turnaround in our bodies and  finances. We believe that our children are being blessed and that our loved ones are saved and healed in the holy name of Jesus your son who died and rose for our salvation. We thank you Father and we honor you for only you are holy. Only you are worthy, and only you are God. Amen.

Praise the Lord!
