Why praying pt5


IOI CHRISTIAN MORNING MEAL

TOPIC: WHY PRAYING pt5

WE PRAY BECAUSE GOD CHOOSES TO USE MEANS

There are many who say, "Why pray if God already predestines all things? Why pray for someone's conversion, why pray that God would heal my body, why pray for anything?" Because God chooses to use means.
He uses rain to make the grass grow. He uses the sun to light the world. He uses our prayers to accomplish His purposes. It is one of the most amazing and humbling realities in the universe, but it is true.

God chooses to use us in accomplishing His purposes. Our prayers may be the very means He uses to save our children, to provide health to the person on the prayer list, or maintain unity in our local church.

James says, "The prayer of a righteous person has great power as it is working" (James 5:16). We have no clue this side of heaven what our prayers are accomplishing for the sake of the Kingdom, our church, our families, or our person. Frankly, we would be overwhelmed in the present if we knew how purposeful, meaningful, and essential God has made our prayers. It is humbling. And it is terribly exciting.

LET US PRAY
In Jesus Name, your prayer will work wonder that will turn your life around for better

Good morning friends
