When everything seems hopeless, lean on the One who gives HOPE.
When you are struggling with your faith, turn to the One who gives FAITH.
Do not look to the world for your comfort and peace - look to the LORD, who gives us Comfort and Peace.
All is not lost when you have the Lord - though the world may turn you away and even when you lose all of your possessions, no one can take your spirit and soul - which belongs to GOD.
No matter what you are going through - nothing is too tough for our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, who conquered death, and saved us from all of our sins. Everyone makes mistakes. GOD forgives. Everyone makes bad choices from time to time. GOD makes the right choices ALL the time. Most of us have felt betrayal and unfaithfulness by those we love in one way or another. GOD is faithful ALL the time.
You can trust GOD all the time. GOD will never leave you or forsake you. Turn to HIM now.
IN THE NAME OF THE FATHER, AND THE SON, AND THE HOLY GHOST, DEAR LORD, HEAR MY PRAYER. I COME TO YOU TODAY, LORD, WITH A HUMBLE HEART, WITH MY WHOLE HEART. I AM HURTING. I FEEL BETRAYED. I FEEL I CAN'T TRUST ANYONE IN THIS WORLD. BUT, I KNOW THAT I CAN TRUST YOU, LORD. YOU ARE FAITHFUL. YOU ARE THE WAY THE TRUTH AND THE LIFE. I PUT MY WHOLE LIFE AND EVERYTHING I HAVE IN YOUR HANDS TODAY, LORD. I ALSO PRAY FOR MY FAMILY AND FRIENDS - FOR THOSE WHO NEED YOU, AND ASK YOU TO BLESS THEM AND ANSWER THEIR PRAYERS. I ASK YOU TO FORGIVE ME OF MY SINS AND HELP ME TO BE STRONG AND TO LIVE THE REST OF MY LIFE SERVING YOU, MY WONDERFUL SAVIOR, MY PRECIOUS LORD. IN JESUS HOLY NAME, I PRAY, AMEN.
PSALM 25:16-18 (NIV)
16 Turn to me and be gracious to me, for I am lonely and afflicted.
17 Relieve the troubles of my heart and free me from my anguish.
18 Look on my affliction and my distress and take away all my sins.
2 CORINTHIANS 1:3-24 (NIV)
Praise to the God of All Comfort
3 Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of compassion and the God of all comfort,
4 who comforts us in all our troubles, so that we can comfort those in any trouble with the comfort we ourselves receive from God.
5 For just as we share abundantly in the sufferings of Christ, so also our comfort abounds through Christ.
6 If we are distressed, it is for your comfort and salvation; if we are comforted, it is for your comfort, which produces in you patient endurance of the same sufferings we suffer.
7 And our hope for you is firm, because we know that just as you share in our sufferings, so also you share in our comfort.
It is true that we are to not only live by food to our secular, natural bodies, but by every word that proceeds from the Heart of God.
ReplyDeleteHowever, Jesus told His disciples, that if you see someone who is dying of hunger, or who has no place to sleep, and you tell them that you will pray for them, you are in error.
Jesus even went further saying that if you give somebody a glass of water in My name, you will receive a reward in heaven.
At the moment, there are 30,000 people in Australia that have been affected by the inland Tsunami, the subsequents floods and the largest cyclone to ever hit Australia's coast, Cyclone Yasi (a categorty 5 cyclone.)
We are not concentrating solely on prayer at the moment, but on action, getting 1040 emergency food hampers to needy families in the last 7 days and getting ready to receive the next emergency shipment tomorrow.
Please pray for our health, protection on the damaged roads and favour with the authorities.
