Prayer Email archive: (04/04/2000) Faith in? |
hello prayer warriors,
1. prayer note: faith in? [Hebrews 11:6] But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him. We've been talking a lot about faith lately. Faith in what? Faith, not in ourselves, or in our abilities, but faith in God. The scripture above says, for he that comes to God must believe that He is... That He is what? When Moses first asked God for a name, (this is the first instance of God giving us His name) God said His name is "I AM" [Exodus 3:14]. From this, the people came out with the name YHWH, which combined with ADONAI (the Lord), became JEHOVAH. Subsequently, He revealed more to us about His name. What did He say His name is? He said I am Jehovah-Jireh meaning (I am the Lord who will provide). He said I am Jehovah-Repheka (I am the Lord your healer). He said I am Jehovah-Nissi (I am the Lord your banner or your conqueror). He said I am Jehovah-Shalom (I am the Lord your peace). Can you believe that? Can you believe that He is and He is everything that He has said Himself to be for us? If you can, then you have faith in the living God who does not lie and who reveals Himself to us even through His names. This is one thing I do, when I lack peace, I just call unto Him and I remind Him and I call Him Jehovah-Shalom. I declare peace for myself through His Name and I say that I believe that He is, and He will surely reward me for my faith in who He is. Want to learn more about the names of God, read the book review below: http://mydevotion.com/logos/asp/viewpyrrep.asp?forumid=7&forumtype=5&topicid=5&table=reviews&reptable=revrep 2. Prayer update i. update on Gideon -- melissa Yesterday morning I prayed and I totally released Gideon and every thing to the Lord. This time I had a screaming match with the right person, Satan. I took back what he tried to steal from me and I told the Lord that it is in his hands, not my will but thy will be done. I meant it with every thing in me. I am studying the word, watching videos, praising and praying. I believe God honored that prayer and he knew my heart and knew that this time I truly did release every thing unto him. Yesterday Gideon became better, He is off of his blood pressure med. His oxygen is coming down and they are slowing working to get him off the one machine. He looks so good, his color is that of a regular new born.( Praise God!!!!!!!) A Joy came over me today, I was laughing and singing with my kids. It was also a inner joy. We know that God has every thing under his care. There is still a lot of decisions we have to make and things that we have to take care of such as our home and the job but we know that God is going to open the doors that needs to be open and close the doors that need to be closed. Pray for wisdom in these areas. http://mydevotion.com/logos/asp/viewpyrrep.asp?forumid=5&forumtype=2&topicid=130&table=prayer&reptable=replies 3. Continue to pray for: i. Salvation for lost loved ones -- I love Jesus (Tammie) My sister is a Christian, but she has strayed away from God. I don't think she is completely back-sliden, but she needs prayer for strength and courage to get her back in church again. My brother, sister-in-law, and brother-in-law also need to be saved. http://mydevotion.com/logos/asp/viewpyrrep.asp?forumid=5&forumtype=2&topicid=114&table=prayer&reptable=replies 4.
