The Faith FILLED Prayer
Happy Mother’s Day! 5/10/26 Susan Allen
John 19:25-NKJV Now there stood by the cross of Jesus His mother, and His mother’s sister, Mary the wife of Clopas, and Mary Magdalene. 26 When Jesus therefore saw His mother, and the disciple whom He loved standing by, He said to His mother, “Woman, behold your son!” 27 Then He said to the disciple, “Behold your mother!” And from that hour that disciple took her to his own home. 28 After this, Jesus, knowing that all things were now accomplished, that the Scripture might be fulfilled, said, “I thirst!”
*Prayer is something we always have with us.
*Prayer GOES PLACES we cannot go.
Rom 8:24 KJV For we are saved by hope: but hope that is seen is not hope: for what a man seeth, why doth he yet hope for? 25 But if we hope for that we see not, then do we with patience (cheerful or hopeful endurance, constancy, continuance) wait for it. (expect fully, expect eagerly)
26 Likewise the Spirit also helpeth (to take hold with at the side for assistance, co-operate, to take a share in, to help in bearing, to help in obtaining)
our infirmities: (feebleness in mind or body, weakness, lake of strength)
for we know not what we should pray for as we ought: but the Spirit itself maketh intercession (to make a petition on behalf of another)
for us with groanings which cannot be uttered.(in articulate speech) 27 And he that searcheth the hearts knoweth what is the mind of the Spirit, because he maketh intercession for the saints according to the will of God.28 And we know that all things work together (fellow-worker, co-operate) for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose.
This is the FAITH FILLED prayer, not the FEAR FILLED PRAYER
1 Peter 5:7AMP Casting the whole of your care [all your anxieties, all your worries, all your concerns, once and for all] on Him, for He cares for you affectionately and cares about you watchfully. [Ps 55:22.]
Prayer is timeless. Your prayers will outlive you.
Don’t separate your saying from your praying
James 5:13-KJV Is any among you afflicted? (undergoing hardship) let him pray.
Is any merry? let him sing psalms.
14 Is any sick among you? let him call for the elders of the church; and let them pray over him, anointing him with oil in the name of the Lord:15 And the prayer of faith shall save the sick, and the Lord shall raise him up; and if he have committed sins, they shall be forgiven him.
16 Confess your faults one to another, and pray one for another, that ye may be healed.
The effectual fervent (active, at work, in action, putting forth power) prayer of a righteous man availeth much.
AMP=The earnest (heartfelt, continued) prayer of a righteous man makes tremendous power available [dynamic in its working].
