PRAYING TOGETHER AS A FAMILY
The LORD is my strength and my shield,". His grace and strength is sufficient... He is the all-powerful God. "My heart trusts in Him, and I am helped,". He has promised to be with us in every situation of life... and all God wants from us is to trust His Word, believe in the Lord Jesus Christ, and hold fast to His many precious promises. Without faith it is impossible to please Him, but those who put their trust in Him will never be disappointed. " My heart leaps for joy, "and with my song I Praise Him." There is something very edifying and encouraging in glorifying God and singing praises to Him... even when faced with problems and pain, it not only lifts our hearts and give hope to our souls, but causes us to trust Him in our helplessness and gives great glory to our Father in heaven. The LORD is my strength and my shield; my heart trusts in him, and he helps me. My heart leaps for joy, and with my song I praise him. Our United Prayer:
Heavenly Father, what comfort and joy all Your children gain from Your precious Word, and we thank You that You are our strength and our Shield. Our hearts trust in You, and we praise and thank You for the help and comfort we received, through faith in Christ Jesus our Savior. Thank You that Your ear is ever open to the cries of Your people. Help us take every thought captive to Christ, when circumstances arise that would otherwise overwhelm us and cause us to fear. The joy of the Lord is our strength, therefore our hearts are grateful in thanks and eternal praise, AMEN. The wise are the ones that pursue peace and speak the truth in love, while the tragedy is that those who wallow in interpersonal war and chase after conflict have their roots in sin and self. But praise God, that when we recognize that the good we want to do in the spirit is opposed by the evil that we want to carry out in the lusts of the flesh, we have an answer!! Jesus Christ is the one who can separate us from this body of sin and death and its suffocating power over us. He not only paid-the-penalty for our sin but broke-the-power of sin in our lives - and has promised that His grace is sufficient for all the battles that we may have to face in this body of flesh. What causes fights and quarrels among you? Don’t they come from your desires that battle within you? Our United Prayer:
Heavenly Father, thank You that 'in-Christ' we have the sufficient grace and power through Him to overcome the lust of the flesh and the pride of life. Thank You that Your grace is sufficient for all our needs, our sufficiency is in Christ alone. Thank You in Jesus' name, AMEN. Don't be worried about the things connected to your life is Christ's clear command. Don't fret about what you are going to eat or what you will drink, and don't be concerned for your body, as to what you will wear, were the comforting words of Jesus to His people. If the birds of the air and the flowers of the field are fed and clothed so beautifully, don't you think that your Heavenly Father is able to supply all your needs? - were Christ's reassuring words. God knows that worry entraps the heart and fear fractures faith, which can cause a believer to spiral down into a pit of despair. BUT He also knows that we have daily needs, and has given many precious promises throughout Scripture that He will be the Provider for all the needs and the Supplier of all the necessities of life – if we will trust in Him. But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well. Our United Prayer:
Loving Father, we know that too often a lack of faith in Your promises of provision, have caused us to seek after the things of this world on our own. We confess this is a lack of faith in You. From now on, may we seek Your kingdom and righteousness first, knowing that You are our great Provider. In Jesus' name we Pray, AMEN. Let us take to heart the shocking context of this verse and recognize what Paul is teaching us here that there is none good , not even one, and that trying to keep rules and laws is not what justifies us in the eyes of God but believing on the Lord Jesus Christ as our sin-substitute. Being doers of the law is rooted in faith in God and Jesus Christ Whom He sent to pay the price for our sins. For whoever believes in Him is JUSTIFIED in the eyes of God but whoever does not believe on Him is not justified, but remains condemned - through time and into eternity. For it is not those who hear the law who are righteous in God’s sight, but it is those who obey the law who will be declared righteous. Our United Prayer:
Heavenly Father, thank You for Your word of truth. Help me us cease from our own strivings by trying to produce works of righteousness, which You have said in Your Word can never justify us in Your sight. Help us to see clearly that the work that You require of us is to believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and that being a 'doer of the word' is to trust in Him, Who alone can justify the lost sinners and Who alone is the Justifier of all who believe. Help us to see that being 'doers of the word' is not carrying out works of the flesh or trying to adhere to works of the law, but refers to the one Who believes in Christ for salvation - knowing that by faith in Him and not by works of the law that we are justified .. and that it is our faith that is credited to us as righteousness, in Jesus name we pray, AMEN. When we have wronged another person we are called to go to them quickly and admit our sin and seek their forgiveness, for this is the will of God for us. We are also called to willingly, graciously, and fervently pray for each other, for as we lift up those who may have wronged us to the Lord in prayer, the fellowship of His love will stream into our hearts and minds, removing any nagging bitterness or residue of unforgiveness. We are called to be holy for God is holy, but it is only as we confess our sins to one another and to our Father in heaven, that fellowship is renewed and our prayers become effective. It is only as we abide in Him and walk godly in Christ Jesus that we are enabled to pray in spirit and truth: "And the effective prayer of a righteous person can accomplish much. Therefore confess your sins to each other and pray for each other so that you may be healed. The prayer of a righteous person is powerful and effective. Our United Prayer:
Heavenly Father, we desire to maintain fellowship with You and to walk godly in Christ Jesus. Help us to recognize our faults and quickly seek Your forgiveness. Help us also to confess our faults to those we have wronged, and we pray that we maintain an attitude of prayer and learn to pray fervently in spirit and truth so that in Christ our prayers may be effective and avail much, to Your honor and glory. This we ask in Jesus' name, AMEN. |
