For Thought and Meditation - Sunday, Feb. 21

[Pine Baron]

Good morning all. Keep up the prayer that reveals the righteous will God. Have a safe and blessed day.

Today's Scripture - Hagee Ministries

Isaiah 1:18
"Come now, and let us reason together,” Says the Lord, “Though your sins are like scarlet, They shall be as white as snow; Though they are red like crimson, They shall be as wool".

Daily Truth

Most people consider prayer to be like a drive-through window. It’s where they pull up and don’t have time to stay, but they want to make sure their order gets in and they get just what they want before they rush away. They pull up to heaven, and God says, “Welcome to McHeaven. May I take your order, please?” As sad as that sounds, that’s what a lot of people think about prayer.

The first thing they...and we...need to know about prayer is that prayer is not a monologue; prayer is a dialogue. Prayer is not where I speak and God listens. It’s where God and I have a conversation. Not only do I get the opportunity to speak to Him, but God very dearly wants to speak to me. Prayer is how we invite the supernatural presence of the Almighty to invade our life. Prayer is where we take time to learn how God effectively communicates with us! Prayer is where we get to hear exciting things when we stop talking and start listening to the King of kings and the Lord of lords. We get to talk to the Commander in Chief and ask Him what He wants us to do here on this earth so we can wage spiritual warfare and overcome the enemy.

Today's Blessing

And now may the Lord bless you and keep you. May the Lord make His face to shine upon you and be gracious unto you and give you His peace. May you go from glory to glory and from strength to strength. May you go from victory to victory, and may God give to you the desires of your heart. May God give you a vision of your future and give you the strength to realize that it is His desire for you to have heaven’s best while you dwell on this earth. In Jesus’ name, we pray. Amen

Amen, Pray without ceasing.

[Markopolo]

I will take 2 McPrayers please, and an order of McBlessings... boy am I guilty of this...

[Wayne Smith]

And the other thing I am guilty of is trying to tell God what to do - as if He doesn't have it all in hand already!

Good lesson on prayer . He knows whats on your mind , he know all about you in every way . He wants to hear from your heart , your concerns , your fears , your love . He knows a need before you do but he wants you to ask for his help . He wants to strengthen or build your relationship with him . You don't have to need or want something . As the lesson said...just talk to him .
