Join Helping Hands
“And He will yet deliver us, you also joining in helping us through your prayers, so that thanks may be given by many persons on our behalf for the favor bestowed on us through the prayers of many.” (2 Corinthians 1:10-11)
When you pray for someone, you ARE helping them. It isn’t theoretical, nor is it just lip-service. A thoughtful, devout, and serious praying Christian can arouse the might of the Ancient of Days. The Lord hears and is moved to action by such reverent appeals. Notice the language of Paul in his letter to the Corinthians – he acknowledges that God will do the delivering, but it will be through the helpful prayers of many which were loosed towards heaven’s throne on Paul’s behalf.
You can always pray… and in fact, we should always be praying. It should be woven into the fabric of our daily lives. There should be times we set aside for it, but we should also be prepared to stop at a moment’s notice to entreat God or send Him our thanks. Prayers matter, and congregations full of prayerful people open doors which would otherwise remain shut.
Matthew 4:4 #Biblebites
