The Power of Prayer

   I love being able everyday to encourage you.  Today I want to again remind you about the power of prayer.  Prayer is something that we need to be involved with everyday.  It is the thing that opens the heavens and brings about God's Blessing.  James D. Craig says that prayer is the conveyor belt that brings the ammunition to the battle of life.  It has been reported that A. J. Seymour who was the man behind Azuza Street which of course brought the modern day Pentecostal movement to the world, prayed five hours a day for seven years to see it happen.  Prayer is the way through to victory.  Never stop praying for your need.  Do not let go of God until you see the heavens open up on your behalf.  Household salvation will not happen by wishing and hoping like the song says. It will happen when you get a hold of the horns of the altar of God and cry out day and night for your love ones.  They will be saved.  Acts 16:21 and Proverbs 22:6 are your promises.  Remember the promises of God and Yes and Amen.  When God makes a promise He keeps it.  I am encouraging you to stay in prayer until you get what you need from God.  God is not slack in doing what we want.  It however takes time to get things into order.  I also want to remind you that sometimes God says no.  The one thing about God He knows the end from the beginning.  He also knows what is best for you and there are times He asks us to trust Him.  Yet pray until your answer comes.
