Prayer

"Be careful for nothing; but in every thing by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God." - Philippians 4:6

We have many cares and concerns that we face each day.

Jesus can take care of life’s problems. We have the privilege of taking everything to Him in prayer. Every problem that we face, Jesus can help us through it, giving us the words to say, what to do, and giving us favor with those we need to face.

Every burden that we carry, Jesus can lift it. Jesus brings salvation, deliverance, and healing.

We can go to Him in prayer for everything, and we should. He is not only the Mighty God that can move mountains, He is also our Savior that humbled Himself and took our place on a cross, suffering and dying in our place because He loves us that much.

With our requests, we give Him thanksgiving: thanking Him for the prayers He has already answered in our life and in our loved ones’ lives, but also thanking Him in advance for what we are requesting, to make sure He gets the praise and the glory, lest we forget to give Him thanks after He has answered our prayer!

When we go to Jesus, we can give our burden to Him and have peace that the problem is being taken care of.

"And the peace of God, which passeth all understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus." - Philippians 4:7

The world cannot understand the peace which comes from Jesus. His peace comes in the midst of our storms and trials. His peace can come in the midst of sorrow.

When we go to Jesus, praying in the Holy Ghost, problems are solved, there is salvation and deliverance, and Jesus gives us peace knowing He heard our prayers and is answering them.

Our heart and our mind is in His hands of protection. He is our shield and defense, our comforter and strength, our ever present help in time of trouble.

"Casting all your care upon him; for he careth for you." - 1 Peter 5:7
