Shalom! Good morning and good night too for some who live in Indonesia.
Happy Marvelous Monday everyone!
Hi we meet again. Yes its Monday in the first week of October 2016 already. As usual Monday we have to start all over again our circle of life for another week again in different month. However, with a new breath and good health which we receive this morning from God as a common grace, we believe we can face whatever is comes up in our life for today right? Always have positive mindset. We know for sure everyday we will face a good and a bad thing in our lives, that is why we need to start our daily life with Pray before we do anything. And have breakfast then go to school or work or else, because with God we can do anything isn't? I said Amen for that.
Mark 11:23 says, 'Whoever says to this mountain.”
Does the problem you’re facing seem like a mountain to you? Jesus said: “Assuredly …whoever says to this mountain, ‘Be removed and…cast into the sea,’ and does not doubt in his heart, but believes that those things he says will be done, he will have whatever he says. Therefore…whatever things you ask for when you pray, believe that you receive them, and you will have them. And whenever you stand praying, if you have anything against anyone, forgive him, that your Father in heaven may also forgive…your trespasses. But if you do not forgive, neither will your Father…forgive your trespasses.” (v. 22-26).
Here Jesus gives us three keys to answered prayer.
1. Keep speaking God’s Word over your problem. “My word…shall not return to Me void, but it shall accomplish what I please, and…prosper in the thing for which I sent it” (Isaiah 55:11).
2. Keep feeding your faith and starving your doubts. “Whatever things you ask when you pray, believe that you receive them, and you will have them” (Mk 11: 24).
3. Keep forgiving. “Whenever you stand praying, if you have anything against anyone, forgive him” (v. 25).
The mountain in your life can’t be removed if you’re harboring unforgiveness. God’s willingness to answer your prayers depends on your willingness to forgive the person who hurt you. So ask yourself: Is it worth holding on to bitterness? Bernard Meltzer says, “When you forgive, you in no way change the past, but you sure do change the future.” Whether or not you think your offender deserves to be forgiven, do it for your own sake, so that the mountain can be moved.
Have a wonderful Monday and be a blessing to others, so Today forgive whoever it is that has hurt you. Stop drinking that poison and caring around that stench of the past. Ephesians 4:32 tells us, "Be kind to one another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, even as God in Christ forgave you."
"God's spirit is right alongside helping us along. If we don't know how or what to pray, it doesn't matter. He does our praying in and for us, making prayer out of our wordless sighs, our aching groans, He knows us far better than we know ourselves...and keeps us present before God. That's why we can be sure that every detail in our lives of love for God is worked into something good." Romans 8: 26-28.
