Regular Prayer for family and friends ....

Acts 16: 31 (AMP) 31  And they answered, Believe in the Lord Jesus Christ [ [ d ] give yourself up to Him, [ e ] take yourself out of your own keeping and entrust yourself into His keeping] and you will be saved, [and this applies both to] you and your household as well. Abba Father, humbly I come before You asking for the salvation of family and friends that do not know or have a personal relationship with You. 2 Corinthians 4: 4 (AMP) 4  For the god of this world has blinded the unbelievers’ minds [that they should not discern the truth], preventing them from seeing the illuminating light of the Gospel of the glory of Christ (the Messiah), Who is the Image and Likeness of God. Please Lord I pray that You will reveal Yourself to my family and friends and that Your Holy Spirit will open their eyes and ears to Your word, so that they may experience Your abundant love for them. As I bring these members of my family and friends before I pray that You will...

Power in the Name of Jesus

Proverbs 18:14Amplified Bible (AMP) 14  The strong spirit of a man sustains him in bodily pain or trouble, but a weak and broken spirit who can raise up or bear? Blow after blow I endured for some many years and this year it struck me to such an extent that committing suicide would have been the best answer for me.   My weak and broken spirit could not move forward any more.   I was constantly crying and everything seemed to be against me.   I finally spoke to my husband and my daughter, telling them the overwhelming feeling of despair that was haunting me constantly.   It seemed that my life was falling apart and the even God had abandoned me.      A couple of weeks ago I decided to get my house in order as I was sure I would not make this year going forward, I told my husband, I wanted to get all my project in order and sort things out as I was certain I was going to die. In the meantime I have been to my GP who has given me...

'My favor, pleasure, and goodwill I have had mercy .....'

Isaiah 60 Amplified Bible (AMP) 10  Foreigners shall build up your walls, and their kings shall minister to you; for in My wrath I smote you, but in My favor, pleasure, and goodwill I have had mercy, love, and pity for you. As I read this I must tell you that for a very, very long time I felt as though my God had forgotten all about me.   I was praying but it felt as though my prayers were hitting a bronze dome not allowing my prayers to get through to the Lord.   I then started to look at my life with a microscope and investigate what was wrong and how I could rectify my situation.      Not that I have the power to do anything but I started eliminating all the things I felt was sinful in the sight of God.   I started making amends and asking for forgiveness and coming clean before God and man. It has taken a couple of years to bring me to the place I find myself.   You don’t have any idea how difficult and embracing many of th...

Forgiving

Matthew 18:21-22 Then Peter came to Jesus and asked, "Lord, how many times shall I forgive my brother when he sins against me? Up to seven times?" Jesus answered, "I tell you, not seven times, but seventy-seven times.   We often misunderstand or can be insulted by any number of people we mix with.   The one thing we don’t keep in mind is being ‘thick skinned’.   Why should we become ‘thick skinned’?   This makes us less of a target and more of a friendly and approachable person.   People who tend to be offended often are normally sensitive and are constantly hurt by what was or was not said.   They also tend to struggle with forgiveness as whole.   Learning to be a forgiving person is difficult and we need to do this through faith.   Firstly, if we are to practise forgiveness we will be obeying the word of God.   By doing this we also free our emotions and set our focus wholly on the Lord.   Once we practise forgiven...
