Pray and Watch Heaven Move
“As for me, I will call upon God; and the Lord shall save me. Evening, and morning, and at noon, will I pray, and cry aloud: and he shall hear my voice. He hath delivered my soul in peace from the battle that was against me: for there were many with me.” Ps. 55:16-18
“Prayer is a heaven-ordained means of success. Appeals, petitions, entreaties, between man and man, move men and act a part in controlling the affairs of nations. But prayer moves heaven… Prayer, faith, confidence in God, bring a divine power that sets human calculations at their real worth—nothingness… He who places himself where God can enlighten him, advances, as it were, from the partial obscurity of dawn to the full radiance of noonday.” In Heavenly Places, p. 75
Heart Questions:
What is the most impossible thing that you are praying God will do? Is it to bring reconciliation between you and someone you love? Is it to restore a broken marriage, or bring a child back to the faith? Write down several impossible prayers on your heart today, and then beside those prayers, write down specific promises from God’s Word. Start by claiming the following promises: Mark 10:27, Luke 18:27, 1 John 5:14
Praise Report:
We praise the Lord that God has already used this COVID-19 pandemic to bring reconciliation between many, and we know God is longing to work the same miracle of healing for many more.
