Please remember Joe's upcoming surgery. No lets do more than just remember him. Lets step up and serve as Adults 4 Christ "Prayer Warriors." Prayers of Agreement using scripture is where we can serve him best, Based on Matthew 18:19 NASB - "Again I say to you, that if two of you agree on earth about anything that they may ask, it shall be done for them by My Father who is in heaven. For where two or three have gathered together i
n My name, I am there in their midst."
When we pray the scriptures, we are coming into agreement with God, and His power is released to answer our prayers. We can start with each of these last days before surgery, lifting up Joe, his Doctors, Nurses and family. Then continuing after the surgery during the recovery and healing process.
..
Did you know that the prayers Jesus himself lifted to his Father were not always answered the first time? ???
Matthew 26:44 NASB says, And he left them again, and went away and prayed a third time, saying the same thing once more.
.
I think the important message here for us is to keep praying for Joe even if we feel like we have run out of words or have said everything there is to say. I believe this scripture could imply that the words may not be as important as the act of obedience in taking it to the Father. Lets show our obedience and trust in the Lord by PRAYING, PRAYING, and then PRAYING some more.
And the prayer of faith shall save the sick. (James 5:15)
