THE POWER OF PRAYER


During our fellowship last Sunday(May 10, 2009) we share about the importance of the creation of man but what blessed me is what happened before we went home. I'll share about the creation of man next time, as the Spirit leads. Anyway, let me go back to what happened before we went home.

First, let me tell you what the Lord has impressed me the Sunday before that(May 3, 2009). I have a sister in our church who is 84 years old. Though she is of that age yet she is the one who take good care of her half paralyzed daughter which she always tag along during Sunday. If you look at them they do not have that much financially. I always see her during our fellowship but that Sunday was different. As I looked at her there was an emotion inside me that want to bless something what I have but yet the act of doing it was not in peace with my heart. So, it just passed away. However, last Sunday as we pray before we went home, there was a leading to give. We gave and it was given to our sister as a gift from God. God really has a way to bless everybody if we know how to pray and inquire Him of His will. The Sunday before that was not yet the time to bless her but last Sunday was her time because God wants to bless everybody, not just my sister but all of us. Like myself I was blessed with the understanding and rhema word of God which I can use and apply in my walk.

The "rhema" word that came to me that Sunday, was that God has it's own time to bless if we only know how to really pray, meaning to really communicate with Him and on our part we know how to listen to Him. It's the result if we have a true relationship with our God. As you read what happened last Sunday, you can see a God who knows how to bless in a different way to everybody but only in one act and you can see also a people who knows how to listen to His voice. That is what we call a true relationship and the power of prayer! Isn't it amazing!

I encourage you now to know God personally because exciting and amazing things will happen in our lives if we live, move and have our being in Christ. Relationship with God is never a boring and corny thing. That's why I understand people who always talk about how God works in their lives because I experienced also of how God works in my life. Some may call them fanatics and funny but I call them bless people.

Let me end with a thought, I just wonder who among us do not want to be bless by God Himself.
