Good Evening Devotion :-)❤️

Confidence in Prayer

You faithfully answer our prayers with awesome deeds, O God our savior. You are the hope of everyone on earth, even those who sail on distant seas. You formed the mountains by your power and armed yourself with mighty strength.Psalm 65:5-6

When we pray, we are talking to the all-powerful God who created the earth by the power of his word, whose wonders fill the earth—and who faithfully answers our prayers with awesome deeds! Prayer is how he has designed his mighty power to be released on the earth, in our lives, and in the lives of those who desperately need God’s help. It’s like the huge generator one of the children in my prayer group drew to show what he had learned about prayer.

“That’s God,” Grant said. “He’s got all this power for us.” Then he drew a long diagonal line from the big generator to some stick figures representing a family. “That’s who needs help. And the power flows along the cord as we pray!” Realizing God’s awesome power changes the way we pray and the way we live. His power is available for every situation and need so that we “can do everything with the help of Christ who gives [us] the strength [we] need” (Philippians 4:13). This is a God we can trust and lean on. This is the all-powerful God in whom we can have confidence when we pray.

LORD, we praise you for your power. We believe, but help our unbelief, and fill us with fresh faith through the power of your Word. Enlarge our circle of prayer, not just for our needs and our own family but for those who are hurting, oppressed, and lost around us. You are our hope and the hope of everyone on the earth!

OUR PRAYERS LAY THE TRACK DOWN ON WHICH GOD’S POWER CAN COME. LIKE A MIGHTY LOCOMOTIVE, HIS POWER IS IRRESISTIBLE, BUT IT CANNOT REACH US WITHOUT RAILS.
Watchman Nee (1903–1972)

Good evening, my dear grateful steemit family and friends. Tonight's devotion is all about our confidence in prayer. This is such a very timely reminder and motivation for me because of what had happened to my nanay. As a matter of fact, this incident had made me more prayerful and more dependent on God. I know that He is working on my faith and my patience. I praise and thank God for my very good and faithful friend, now a steemian, ms. @catietan for consistently sharing her devotions with me. I felt led to share it all here with you all so that all of you, my dear followers and readers will also be blessed the way I was blessed by this devotion.

May this be our prayer too, "LORD, we praise you for your power. We believe, but help our unbelief, and fill us with fresh faith through the power of your Word. Enlarge our circle of prayer, not just for our needs and our own family but for those who are hurting, oppressed, and lost around us. You are our hope and the hope of everyone on the earth!"

In Jesus' Name. Amen.

Thank you very much for your time and God bless :-)
