31 Days of Prayer ~ in His Word 1-16-2024
So,
I may have written about this verse already, but Jesus also repeated it three
times. He went off to pray three times and asked them to keep watch and pray
each of three times. This tells me that we need to be reminded things sometimes,
also that it is okay to repeat ourselves when the point did not get across.
Sometimes we are so tired of hoping, we do not think we can have the faith to
pray through. This is when our flesh is weak. One time for me God had my friend
Joanna suggest our group pray for me when I was in a ton of shoulder pain. I
already knew I had a torn rotator cuff, it was pretty bad, but I was also loosing range of motion
by the day. She had everyone pray, I did not have the faith but God used the
faith of a few close friends and he healed me! I felt a hot line of what was
like a glue gun glueing my tear shape. I figured it was just my imagination until
my husband told me the Doctor was not able to find the tear that we saw on the
screen! He did find a piece of bone ‘floating
around’ and that was a good thing to remove and I am grateful to God that I
went through the surgery just to have that blockage removed. I was weak but He
was strong.
Keep watch and pray, so that you will not
give in to temptation. For the spirit is willing, but the body is weak!” Matthew
26:41
Thank you Lord for being persistent and encouraging
the ladies to pray just when I needed it. Bless them today for having strength
in Your Spirit, in Jesus’ name.
