Praying Positively


Do you believe God can do wonderful, miraculous things? I do! When we believe He can save us, heal us and prosperous us we open ourselves up to receive all He wants us to have. Jesus stopped healing people in His hometown because of their unbelief (Matthew 13:58). James tells us one of the reasons we fail to receive God’s blessings and miracles is because we don’t ask Him in faith for them (James 4:2).

Too often the church believes God seldom wants to bless us. It may even teach that healing was only done during Jesus’ ministry so He could prove who He was. This is false teaching. Jesus is the same today as He always was, is and ever will be. He continues to heal and to use others to assist Him in His healing ministry. Why would we instead of following His example, as He instructed us to do, counsel people to cope with their diseases and pain? There is a better way, and that way is Jesus Christ who is still healing today.

Positive prayer always includes faith. Faith is; confident trust in God who has proven trustworthy, who can be trusted with all our needs because He is love. Faith is also; Being sure of what we hope for and certain of what we don’t see (Hebrews 11:1). Our prayers must be spoken to God with a positive expectancy framed with all faith believing we have received what we are praying for. Adopt a more positive prayer language and I believe you will see amazing results. God listens!

God never changes who He is

The popular cry of the people here in America today is for “change.” Yet in some parts of the world there are those who use all means, including terrorism to resist it. There are some people who are determined to leave ancient traditions, and often times, corruptible governments just as they are, and have been for hundreds of thousands of years. Many of these nations do not recognize God. God is always the same; today, tomorrow, and forever. He never changes; this knowledge about Him enables us to have total reliability in Him. His character is as follows: God is omnipotent . All power is His, and nothing is beyond His control. He enforces His perfect will. He is unstoppable by any force in heaven or on earth! God is omnipresent. He is everywhere imaginable and unimaginable all at the same time! No person or place is beyond His presence. Space and time are before Him always. He determines everything for all places and all persons. God is omniscient. All that is happening to all ...

Over the past few years I have been inspired by the Holy Spirit to write what He has given me; many times I was awakened in the middle of the night to write them down.

I pray there is. Thanks for reading my blog and may God richly bless you.

God’s Family

He provides resources for the family “For You, Lord, are good, and ready to forgive, and abundant in mercy to all those whom call upon You” (Psalm 86:5). God’s plan for marriage and the family, in the Bible, is intended to be ideal, full of prosperity for every member. Would you say this describes your family? Maybe, maybe not, however, even if your family has missed His mark His Word deals with life realistically. Many of us experience some aspect of failure or serious disappointment with the way our family is living. Many families today are divided by divorce or living as single-parent family units. God alone can provide the needed resources and the loving care vital for the needs of these families who are dealing with life. If you are having trouble in your family turn to Jesus. He is your primary resource for forgiveness and your hope for renewal (Ephesians 1:7).   He forgives no matter if the failure is yours or it is one of those times when someone else fails yo...
