Prayer Corner (Page 3)

Message: God whispers to us in our pleasures, speaks in our consciences, but shouts in our pain.              Before I was afflicted     The way to a stronger faith usually lies along the rough path of sorrow. Only as faith is contested will faith be confirmed.We don’t know if our experiences are similar to all of God’s people, but the grace we receive in comfortable and easy times could lie on a penny. The…

Message: God’s giving deserves our thanksgiving.     Prayer, do you ask God for mercies. If they are not answered right away do you wonder why? Well, God’s mercies are given according to His timing.     Just when we need a mercy, and when the mercy is much more a mercy because it is so timely, that is when it comes. If it had come later, it might have been too late, or at any rate it would not…

What tomorrow may bring God has given us a memory, that we may look back. It would be well if We used our memories better, to remember, reflect and repent. God has Not given us eyes to pry into the future. He unveils the past for our Penitence, but He veils the future from our curiosity. Dark days may be near at hand for some of us, but we do not perceive Them. Let us be thankful that we do…

We will not fear     The very hairs of your head are all numbered (Matthew 10:30) Do you Think this is a literal meaning? Well, yes it is. God’s wisdom and Knowledge are so great that He really does know every hair on your head. His providence descends to the minute dust particles in a summer storm. He numbers gnats in the sunshine and the fish in the sea. He controls All the massive planets that shine in the…

Psalm 50:15, Call upon Me in the day of trouble: I will deliver you, and you Shall glorify Me.       “Call upon Me”     Oh Lord, You see how great my trouble is! It is heavy. I cannot carry it, And I cannot get rid of it. It follows me to be and won’t let me sleep. When I rise it is still with me. I cannot shake it off. My trouble is unusual. Few are Afflicted…

Blessed beyond measure     The greatest blessing God gives is His presence. If I could choose any Of life’s blessings, I certainly would not ask for wealth, because wealth Cannot bring freedom from pain, concern or anxiety. I certainly would Not ask for popularity, for there is no rest for the world’s leaders. My choice My highest honour, would be to have God with me always.     When God is with us, there is no difference between Nebuchadnezzar’s…

Message: ”God’s giving deserves our thanksgiving.” Devotion. “A Thankful response.”     The beauty of twilight, the freshness of dawn, the coolness of dew on A green velvet lawn – Great is our loss when we no longer find a thankful Response to things of this kind. Psalm 37: 6, He will make your righteousness shine like the dawn, The justice of your cause like the noonday sun.     Today respond with deep appreciation to scenes painted by our…

Message, For you Lord are good and ready to forgive.Psalm 86:5.           A lesson to learn about prayer If you ever experienced the loss of a loved one or are facing a serious Illness, you know that God’s answers to your prayers are not always What you want or expect. Sometimes His answers are hard to under- Stand. You pray for relief but instead things get worse. Should negative developments change your commitment to pray and…

 My ways     Do you sometimes feel your prayers are not answered or maybe even Acknowledged? Remember God has not promised to rescue us according To our time schedule. Don’t dishonour the Lord with disbelief. Waiting in faith is a high form of worship. God delivers His servants in ways That exercise their faith, for faith is the wealth of the heavenly life. He Desires that the trial of faith continues until faith grows strong and comes To full…
