How You Can Harness the Power of Prayer:

Mark 11:24 Therefore I tell you, whatever you ask in prayer, believe that you have received it and it will be yours.

This verse is important, especially for people that are disappointed when they don’t get exactly what they pray for. Prayer is powerful if you put all your belief and trust into it. If you truly believe what you are saying you will feel it.

Many people don’t understand the true power of prayer and how the Lord works. You must believe what you are saying without a doubt. To doubt your prayer is to doubt the Lord’s ability. What you get might not be what you want but you will soon see that it is exactly what you needed.

Prayer makes me feel a sense of peace and security. I have nothing to worry about or fear. I do not doubt the Lord. In putting all my struggles in front of him and trusting him he has given me answers and blessings bigger than my desires.

So many people say, “I pray but the things I pray for never come to me, so how can god be real?” he has an individual plan for each and every one of us. Also, ask yourself is what you’re praying for really of God. He will not grant you something that doesn’t align with your calling.

We are all just a vessel for his bigger plan. We must follow his word if we don’t then how can we possibly expect him to bless us? We can’t only pray when things are bad, we need to talk to him when we see our blessings too.

The more I sit and give the Lord my time the more I receive blessings. I’m new to Christianity but since giving myself to God he has been working miracles in my life. I feel so happy and at peace. I know he is guiding me and leading me to my greatest blessings.

I know I only feel his goodness because I sit with him, and I sit in his presence to talk to him not just to ask for things but to talk to him as my father and friend. I know he’s always walking with me, but I still tell him about my day and what I felt through it, and I thank him for all the good things that I get to wake up to every day like my family. I’m going to leave a prayer of thanks right here at the end for everyone whenever you read this have a blessed night or day.

Thank you for your great love and blessing over our lives. Thank you that your favor has no end, but it lasts for our entire lifetime. Forgive us for sometimes forgetting that you are intimately acquainted with all our ways, that you know what concerns us, and you cover us as with a shield. We ask that we would walk in your blessing and goodness today. That your face would shine on us. That you would open the right doors for our lives and for our loved ones, that you would close the wrong doors and protect us from those we need to walk away from. Establish the work of our hands and bring to fulfillment all that you have given us to do in these days. We pray that you would make our way purposeful and our footsteps firm out of your goodness and love. Give us a heart of wisdom to hear your voice, and make us strong by your huge favor and grace. In Jesus’ Name, Amen. (Debbie McDaniel)
