The Power of Prayer

My Salvation

In today’s world, throughout the entire world, some are at war with GOD. There are those who are not. There are those who choose to be down on their knees, asking for forgiveness, believing in the birth, death and resurrection of our LORD, the Son of GOD, who saved us from our sinful nature. If it were not true, we would all be at war with GOD with no hope of salvation nor an eternal life with him who loved us first. HE will always have eternal love for his children that come to HIM with adoration, praise, and worship. Yes, it is hope, but it is also truth. When you have been blessed with the Holy Spirit of GOD, you will know it to be true.

One of the most powerful and love filled scriptures in the Bible is John 3:16 (KJV).

“For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.”

When we pray, always give praise to HIM for he is the great I AM. He made us in his image, beginning with Adam, from the dust of the ground. We are his creation, and as such, should worship him and no other Gods, nor people, or things of this world that he created us to have dominion over. We are HIS, and HE has allowed us to have direct access to HIM in prayer. How awesome of a GOD to let us speak with HIM, praise HIM, and ask of things from HIM that are according to HIS will not ours!

Jesus gave an example of how to pray to his FATHER. It is in Matthew 6:9-13 (KJV):

“After this manner therefore pray ye: Our Father which art in heaven, Hallowed be thy name. Thy kingdom come, thy will be done on earth, as it is in heaven.Give us this day our daily bread.And forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors.And lead us not into temptation but deliver us from evil: For thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, forever. Amen.”

I will leave you with the reassuring words of Jesus. Matthew 28:16-20 (KJV).

“Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost: Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you always, even unto the end of the world. Amen.”

An Unfortunate Soul

I closed my eyes, and opened them, but all I could see was darkness. I felt a pain beginning in my toes and spreading upward through my feet, legs, thighs and then it zoomed to the top of my torso, neck, and head. My arms felt like darts shooting flames at the very same time. I clinched my teeth in utter pain and couldn’t comprehend what exactly was happening. Where was I? What happened after I went to bed and fell asleep? Could this be a nightmarish dream, or have I died and gone to …oh no, couldn’t be. There is no Hell. I was so sure of it. I kept thinking I would wake up and it would be just a bad dream. I had heard a street preacher this past week talk about repentance and belief in Jesus, or we would suffer eternal damnation. I had yelled out to him that at least I would be in good company partying away with my friends, who also did not believe. He responded that my friends would not be with me, nor God. I would be alone. All alone. My eyes were open, but I saw no flames, only

Love is Eternal

Love at First Sight The first time I saw your face Time stood still I didn’t know why But it was so, so surreal. I couldn’t speak the words. They came out all jumbled and weird I thought you wouldn’t want to know me Because I came off so bizarrely unreal. You seemed to think it was cute I thought that was something strange You wanted to get to know me I kept thinking you must be deranged. You laughed at my words. That didn’t seem so clearly spoken. I started to sense Our feelings were mutually beholden. My eyes sparkled From your reflection I didn’t want to close my eyes And have you deflected. You grabbed my hand And I didn’t pull away You had that magic touch And I refused to stray. Yesterday seems like a distant memory You’re still here by my side I can’t believe our love has never died. I gained confidence With you by my side You lifted me up And never said goodbye. Others come and go But you remained And your love for me It has never strayed. You gave me hope To believe in tomorro
