Bible Verse of The Day – 5-14-14

(James 5:17-18 NKJV)  Elijah was a man with a nature like ours, and he prayed earnestly that it would not rain; and it did not rain on the land for three years and six months. {18} And he prayed again, and the heaven gave rain, and the earth produced its fruit.

This is just an example of what praying earnestly can do. If we want things to happen in our home, with our family, in our church, our schools and in our country, we must pray and pray earnestly.

God will answer our prayers. It may not be exactly the way we thought it would be answered or in the timing we had expected, but things change when we pray.

God is faithful and willing to help us in whatever we are concerned about. We have to trust and believe that He will answer us.

Don’t think just because things don’t happen or change right away that He didn’t hear our prayer. And don’t have any preconceived ideas of how He will answer. Be open to Him and willing to do whatever it takes on our end.

Don’t give up on praying…it works!
