Prayer
Hannah prayed, and the Lord gave her a son, Samuel.
"And she was in bitterness of soul, and prayed unto the
LORD, and wept sore. ... For this child I prayed; and the LORD hath given me my
petition which I asked of him:" - 1 Samuel 1:10, 27 KJV
Solomon prayed, and the fire came down from heaven, and the glory
of the LORD filled the house.
"Now when Solomon had made an end of praying, the fire
came down from heaven, and consumed the burnt offering and the sacrifices; and
the glory of the LORD filled the house." - 2 Chronicles 7:1 KJV
Daniel prayed, and God gave him understanding of the end
times.
"Yea, whiles I was speaking in prayer, even the man
Gabriel…informed me, and talked with me, and said, O Daniel, I am now come
forth to give thee skill and understanding." - Daniel 9:21-22 KJV
The church prayed and Peter was miraculously delivered from
prison.
"Peter therefore was kept in prison: but prayer was
made without ceasing of the church unto God for him. ... And when Peter was
come to himself, he said, Now I know of a surety, that the Lord hath sent his
angel, and hath delivered me out of the hand of Herod, and from all the expectation
of the people of the Jews." - Acts 12:5, 11 KJV
Through prayer, things can be accomplished that we could
never do. Souls can be reached that we could never reach. Miracles can happen.
Never underestimate what God will do through your prayers.
"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 KJV
