THE POWER OF PRAYER! Part 35

LightWord:

“The earnest (heartfelt, continued) prayer of a righteous man makes tremendous power available — dynamic in its working.” James 5:16 AMPC


What pumps power to your prayer is when you are being earnest. Earnest means serious determination. When your heart is fixed on something. Therefore, as used in reference to prayer, earnestness means heartfelt prayer.


It is the heartfelt prayer of the righteous that God reckons with. James 5:17-18. The reason why you must be earnest is that God looks into the heart. Half­hearted prayer, or prayer that has root only in the mind of the person praying, will have little or no effect.


Say this to yourself: Father, thank You because my heart will always be connected with You while praying without any iota of distraction or undetermination in Jesus' name. Amen!

LIGHT FOR DARKNESS! Part 19

LightWord: “Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven.” Matthew 5:16 Walking as children of light, in other words, you must use the authority you have as light to dominate over darkness. ( Eph.5:8 ). Remember, our focal Scripture says the power of the light you carry has to shine brighter. And the truth is, the light won't shine on its own, you have to let it shine by taking responsibility to aris e to every situations and challenges you may be facing. The good news is, no darkness can withstand your light only if you will let it shine by applying it to your paths. ( Isa.60:1 ) Say this to yourself: Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, thank You for the power of Your Light that I carry. I will arise, shine and dispel every darkness around me and in my world in Your name for ever in Jesus' name. Amen!

CHANGE IS POSSIBLE!

Image
LightWord: “But Jesus beheld them, and said unto them, With men this is impossible; but with God all things are possible.” Matthew 19:26 As it is popularly said “change is constant” which simply means there is nothing that cannot change. But until a man is changed, he cannot be changed and only a changed man can change the world . Everybody wants a change but to change is the difficulty. Now, except if a man has a strong desire to change, he won't change. It is said in physics that everything remains in a stagnant position until a force is being applied. There are required principles to follow in order to enforce the desired change. Yet change is possible! Say this to yourself: Thank You Father because with You my change is possible in Jesus' name. Amen!

CHANGE IS POSSIBLE! Part 4

LightWord: “If a man die, shall he live again? all the days of my appointed time will I wait, till my change come.” Job 14:14 By redemption we have been ordained by God to be the light of the world, illuminating everywhere and changing the world for better Matt.5:14-16. But just as it is written in Part 1 of this series that only a changed person can change the world. You cannot be the light when you yourself is stumbling in darkness . Just as the case of Esau, where his mother hated him, his brother cheated on him by trick, his father cursed him (Gen.27) , just as if the whole world has turned upside down for him, yet he desired a change and he experienced a great turnaround. Likewise the man called Job; everybody saw an end for him in his tribulations but he kept on seeing a change with strong desire ( Job 14:14 ) and at last he was blessed beyond measure. See Job 42:12-17 . Say this to yourself: Lord, no matter what people think or say about me, no matter what they see around me
