Praising Him For Prayer

Blessed be the Name of the Lord! I was just thinking today about what a tremendous blessing it is to be able to communicate with Almighty God. He speaks to me through His Word & I know that His Word is supernatural & has within itself the power that makes it come to pass. Not only do I have the privilege of knowing what His thoughts, wishes and desires are, but because He has opened the way for me, I also have the joy of being able to speak with Him & be in His presence at any time. I have an open invitation from Him & can go into His presence whenever I need to interact or communicate with Him. I have the privilege of learning His ways & cooperating with Him to bring His desires to pass. It is so awesome that Almighty God wants to interact & spend time with me. Blessed be the Name of the Lord Who has taken the initiative, made a way, & actively pursues me to be able to communicate with Him on a continuing basis!!

Someone Is Praying For You

I praise the Lord every day for His caring, provision and His prompting others to pray for me. You never know who is praying for you. This is clear to me in two examples from my own life. One time when I was in college I received a letter from a family I stayed with while I was growing up. I was told that their youngest son prayed for me by name every night before he goes to bed and he was only a baby when I lived with the family. I also found out recently that someone that I had worked with in the late 70s who wasn't even a Christian at the time we worked together had later become a Christian, was now a minister and had been praying for me for several years. That's amazing to me - one person was a baby and the other wasn't a believer at time I was with them and things changed to the point they were sensitive to Good's leading to pray for me.
