Prayer Email archive: (04/29/2000) in line with His character |
hello prayer warriors,
1. prayer note: in line with His character [James 1:16-17] 16 Do not err, my beloved brethren. 17 Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and cometh down from the Father of lights, with whom is no variableness, neither shadow of turning. We've covered hearing from God and validating God's voice against His Word, what does His Word say about it? God will not tell us something that contradicts His Word. Another thing that God will not tell us is something that is against His character. What does the Bible say about the character of God our Father or the character of Christ. EVERY good gift and EVERY perfect gift is from above. What about the converse? Does God give us bad gifts, does He punish us with sickness or torture us with bad gifts because He wants us to learn? God may discipline us or teach us, but does He send us bad gifts? What does the Bible say? [John 10:10-11] 10 The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly. 11 I am the good shepherd: the good shepherd giveth his life for the sheep. Remember the story of Job, even though God sometimes allow things to happen to us, but He is not the One who is behind it. He is the good shepherd and never the thief that comes to destroy us. So, if we hear from God and we hear Him telling us that He wants to punish us with sickness because we did this and that in our past, or He is sending us all these sufferings and calamities, we know that this is not the voice of God. Because God will not tell us something that is against His character. He is the Father of lights and Jesus came to give us life and life abundantly. If we hear condemnation, negative things, or if what we hear bring fear into our lives, we can safely renounce these and proclaim His Word of His abundant life. [John 8:32] And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free. 2. New prayer requests: i.

The enemy is trying to tell him that he has no more chances with God. He has an evangelistic calling on his life. Please pray that God shows him that the enemy is lying to him. I have listened to the leading of God and it is PRAY! PRAY! PRAY! God Bless each and every one of you for your prayers!!! http://mydevotion.com/logos/asp/viewpyrrep.asp?forumid=5&forumtype=2&topicid=154&table=prayer&reptable=replies 3. Continue to pray for: i. pray for healing -- tillyotoole I have a boyfriend who is a quadraplegic. His name is Dartanier Patton. He was injured in a diving accident. He wasn't saved at the time, but now is. We are believing the Lord for total and complete healing. Please join us in praying for this. We stay in the word and know that healing is always God's will. We stand and hold fast to his promises. He has improved slowly over time, but has a long way to go. He receives therapy now but never did before. We know that God is faithful. Also, I am his sole provider and sometimes this gets to be too much. He can't really do anything for himself. I have to do a lot of physical lifting as well as manage the household and tend to him . Please pray for strength, mentally and physically for me. We will endure until the end.
