Pray. Prayed. Praying.



"He will regard the prayer of the destitute, and not despise their prayer." - Psalms 102:17


  • Destitute - synonyms: poor, impoverished, more needy, distressed

Dear Friends,

 Pray. Prayed. Praying.

   God does hear and answer prayer. Many can attest to answered prayer. Yet, our certainty that He hears and answers is because The Word of God declares it.  God does not lie.

As the Holy Spirit led me to Psalms 102:17 I was in awe of the magnitude of of the word destitute. Destitution is a state we can all find ourselves in. Lack of material wealth, economically disadvantaged is of course a kind of destitution.  However, to be emotionally impoverished, distressed by the cares of life can cause devastation that many people including Christians struggle with.

The solution is to pray. The comfort is knowing you have prayed. You can rest secure having cast your concerns and anxieties upon Jesus Christ.  The deliverance is manifest when you keep on praying. Pray. Prayed. Praying. These three represent the present, the past and future remedy to any destitution.

  Don't faint in prayer. The Bible tells s to continue instant in prayer. (Romans 12:12)  Jesus tells us to always pray and never give up. 
(Luke 18:1. We are told to rejoice always and pray continually. (1 Thessalonians 5:16-18)

God hears. He will regard the prayer of the needy. He will not turn His back on the prayers of His children.

Hear the Word of the Lord:

   "Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven." - St. Matthew 5:3

I leave you with these words to ponder: PRAY! PRAYED! PRAYING!

in Christ,

Sis. Stephanie

THE WHAT AND THE SOEVER

  Philippians 4:8 “Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things  are honest , whatsoever things  are  just, whatsoever things  are  pure, whatsoever things  are  lovely, whatsoever things  are  of good report; if  there be  any virtue, and if  there be  any praise, think on these things.” The truth is Jesus. Honestly. This is a fact. Scripture declares Him to be. The Way, the Truth, the Life. His ways are holy and just. His Word is pure. He is altogether lovely. Focusing on the whatsoever things is to abide in the peace of God. Thoughts centered on bountiful blessings. Determined to dwell on the goodness of God rather than the constant chaos perpetrated by the enemy of our souls. The What is also the Who.  He is the King of Kings. He is the Lord of Lords. Matchless in power and might. He is the Faithful and True. He holds the balance in His Hands. God weighs the intent of the heart. True Hones...

The Journey Here

  Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me. - Psalms 23:4 The journey here...that is really something to think about.  Where we are in life as compared to where we had hoped to be.  Paths chosen while other were forgotten or neglected.  Decisions.  Times of indecisiveness. There were times we crawled. Too weary to walk.  We ran. We were too impatient to wait.   The journey.  Here.  That is really something to think about. For me the most difficult and sometimes debilitating aspect of the journey, has been walking through the valley of the shadow of death.  Tempted to fear due to memories of time I could have spent, conversations I should have had, hugs I wish I had given.  This type of fearful fretting is not of God.  I have learned; I am learning that if I truly believe, He is with me.  If I surely stand on His promi...
