P.U.S.H…Pray…Until…Something…Happens…when praying just report for duty…do not give God instructions.

 

When praying…you don’t need to repeat yourself…God already knows what you need…

It is written…

But when ye pray, use not vain repetitions (empty repeating), as the heathen do: for they think that they shall be heard for their much speaking. Be not ye therefore like unto them: for your Father knows what things ye have need of, before ye ask him...Matthew 6:7-8

 

We do not need to remind God of anything…

And this is the confidence that we have in Him (Jesus), that, if we ask any thing according to His will, He heareth us: And if we know that He hear us, whatsoever we ask, we know that we have the petitions that we desired of Him...1 John 5:14-15.

 

We can always approach His throne and are told too…

For we have not a high priest which cannot be touched with the feeling of our infirmities; but was in all points tempted like as we are, yet without sin. Let us therefore come boldly (with confidence) unto the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy, and find grace to help in time of need...Hebrews 4:15-16… Pray without ceasing...1 Thessalonians 5:17. Be careful for nothing; but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God. And the peace of God, which passes all understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus...Philippians 4:6-7.

 

If you pray in the morning when you wake up…at noon…at the evening…then have you stopped praying or have you prayed all day long…? We can be confident God hears our desires and our petitions when we pray. In fact, He is so Great He already knows our needs. His peace is given through prayer.

 

It is written… Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you: For every one that askes receives; and he that seeks finds; and to him that knocks it shall be opened. Or what man is there of you, whom if his son ask bread, will he give him a stone? Or if he ask a fish, will he give him a serpent? If ye then, being evil, know how to give good gifts unto your children, how much more shall your Father which is in heaven give good things to them that ask Him...Matthew 7:7-11?

 

Prayer

Father please meet our needs and thank you for all You have done and are doing…please forgive my sins and any ungratefulness…You are my enough…in Jesus of Nazareth’s name amen.

A way to increase our faith…

 

…And when Jesus was entered into Capernaum, there came unto him a centurion (soldier over 100 men), beseeching (entreating) Him, And saying, Lord, my servant lies at home sick of the palsy, grievously tormented.

…And Jesus saith unto him, I will come and heal him.

The centurion answered and said, Lord, I am not worthy that thou shouldest come under my roof: but speak the word only, and my servant shall be healed. For I am a man under authority, having soldiers under me: and I say to this man, Go, and he goes; and to another, Come, and he cometh; and to my servant, Do this, and he does it. When Jesus heard it, He marveled (was astonished), and said to them that followed, Verily (truly) I say unto you, I have not found so great faith, no, not in Israel…

…And I say unto you, That many shall come from the east and west, and shall sit down with Abraham, and Isaac, and Jacob, in the kingdom of heaven. But the children of the kingdom shall be cast out into outer darkness: there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth. And Jesus said unto the centurion, Go your way; and as you hast believed, so be it done unto you. And his servant was healed in the selfsame hour...Matthew 8:5-13.

 

When we pray like Jesus told us are we not doing the same thing as this Roman Soldier…we are on our knees…showing respect to our Creator (entreating)…approaching in His presence…distance is removed. We are asking for a good thing according to Jesus will…and Jesus can heal from a distance…just as He did for this Roman Soldier. It is just words for Jesus…but it is healing and blessing for us.

 

Seeing then that we have a great high priest, that is passed into the heavens, Jesus the Son of God, let us hold fast our profession. For we have not a high priest which cannot be touched with the feeling of our infirmities; but was in all points tempted like as we are, yet without sin. Let us therefore come boldly unto the throne of grace (undeserved favors), that we may obtain mercy (punishment forgiven) and find grace to help in time of need...Hebrews 4:14-16.

 

And this is the confidence that we have in Him (Jesus), that, if we ask any thing according to His will, He hear us: And if we know that He hear us, whatsoever we ask, we know that we have the petitions that we desired of Him...1 John 5:14-15.

When you pray do ask what Jesus would do for others…it is answered if it is according to His will.

 

Prayer

Father…please heal us physically, mentally, spiritually…so our soul will be fit for Your Kingdom…that we may be in health and prosper as our soul prospers…in Jesus of Nazareth’s name amen.

Do you major in the major things of God…? Try…A…Pause for Prayer and Devotional a Wellsaid Christian Devotional about the teachings of Jesus…

 

First things first…have you done the most important…obedience to God’s word…

Not everyone that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, (lip service) shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that does the will of my Father which is in heaven. Many will say to Me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied (told the truth of your word) in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works? And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from Me, ye that work iniquity (work apart from God)...Matthew 7:21-23.

 

Building a congregation will not get you into heaven…doing many wonderful works like building church buildings will not get you into Heaven…preaching a sermon will not get you into Heaven… getting rid of devils will not get you into Heaven…UNLESS it is the will of the Father…Unless you are “In Christ” working with Him and allowing Him to work through you…Have you done the first things first…listen to what Jesus told a Jew named Nicodemus… Jesus answered, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born of water and of the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God. That which is born of the flesh is flesh; and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit. Marvel not that I said unto thee, Ye must be born again...John 3:5-7.

 

Have you been born of the water and the Spirit like Jesus told this man…yes or no?

Jesus said…He that believes and is baptized shall be saved; but he that believes not shall be damned...Mark 16:16. And this is the condemnation, that light is come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil. For every one that does evil hate the light (does not want to do it Jesus’ way but the way they think is better) neither comes to the light, lest his deeds should be reproved. But he that does truth comes to the light, that his deeds may be made manifest (made known either good or evil), that they are wrought (sanctified…established or nullified) in God...John 3:19-21.

 

People do not want to admit or confess they have been wrong…so do not come to Jesus…

Jesus said people hate the light because it means they must admit they do not understand good or evil but will have to accept Jesus’ judgement of their deeds…as if they have never really obeyed or done God’s will…but their own will and called it God’s will. Have they done what they thought God wanted or perhaps have done that which they thought was evil or done their own moral compass. They will have to admit their ways lead to hopeless end…are not God’s ways…their morals are not God’s morals. In other words…every “good” or bad thing I have ever done…when I came to God, I surrendered all of it to Jesus will. Many of my deeds were reprovable and some I had to do no more…I had to confess I was wrong and learn to do better or God’s way.

 

Have you been baptized into Christ…yes or no?

If not, then how you know there is no difference than before and after baptism…either way at least you have done what Jesus said about being born of the water and the Spirit. Many do not believe you have to be born of the water and the Spirit in baptism…many will be lost. I felt peace with God and creation…it felt good knowing I was at peace with the Creator for once in my life…hope you to will know peace with God one day.

 

Prayer

Father please continue to convert me and reprove my works, so that I am In You and You in me…please I have been baptized. Please be in me…on me…and work through me… that we may have a relationship…in Jesus of Nazareth’s name amen.
