iFellowship – Prayer

iFellowship – Prayer
iFellowship

It has been a while since I have joined in with iFellowship and I have truly missed it. I am hoping to change that, starting today.Before, I used this time to share scripture that has touched me during the previous week. I want to continue that as well.

James 5:13-18

13 Is anyone among you suffering? Let him pray. Is anyone cheerful? Let him sing praise. 
14 Is anyone among you sick? 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 will save the one who is sick, and the Lord will raise him up. And if he has committed sins, he will be forgiven. 
16 Therefore, confess your sins to one another and pray for one another, that you may be healed. The prayer of a righteous person has great power as it is working. 
17 Elijah was a man with a nature like ours, and he prayed fervently that it might not rain, and for three years and six months it did not rain on the earth. 
18  Then he prayed again, and heaven gave rain, and the earth bore its fruit.

 Today, I wanted to share a few verses on prayer. I love to pray. It is something that I can do anytime and anywhere that I can. Praying is a quiet conversation between me and God. An intimate time that I can praise Him, worship Him, pour my heavy heart to Him and lift others up to Him. You see, there was a time I wanted to be more involved in the ministry at my church. However, I have children and through the grace of God, the last few years, I have learned that my main ministry and mission field at this time is my children and being at home with them. Yet, I still felt like I could still do something more. Then God finally spoke to heart        that I could do something more.  I could pray.

Prayer works!!  I have seen miracles happen.  God may not always answer the prayer right away, but He does answer them!  He may not answer them the way you think it should be answered, but He ANSWERS!

Do you have a burden and would love for someone to pray for you?   If you do and feel comfortable leaving it in the comments section, please do so.  I will pray for you.  If you don’t want to leave it in the comment section, that is perfectly alright.  You can e-mail me at jumpforjoy (at) gmail (dot) com.

Blessings!

I am over at Seeds of Faith today. I am sharing some scripture in Luke and a few words about Mary, the mother of Jesus.

Luke 1:26-38

 26 In the sixth month the angel Gabriel was sent from God to a city of Galilee named Nazareth, 
27 to a virgin betrothed to a man whose name was Joseph, of the house of David. And the virgin’s name was Mary. 
28 And he came to her and said, “Greetings, O favored one, the Lord is with you!” 
29 But she was greatly troubled at the saying, and tried to discern what sort of greeting this might be. 
30 And the angel said to her, “Do not be afraid, Mary, for you have found favor with God. 
31 And behold, you will conceive in your womb and bear a son, and you shall call his name Jesus. 
32 He will be great and will be called the Son of the Most High. And the Lord God will give to him the throne of his father David, 
33 and he will reign over the house of Jacob forever, and of his kingdom there will be no end.”
 34 And Mary said to the angel, “How will this be, since I am a virgin?”
 35 And the angel answered her, “The Holy Spirit will come upon you, and the power of the Most High will overshadow you; therefore the child to be born will be called holy— the Son of God. 
36 And behold, your relative Elizabeth in her old age has also conceived a son, and this is the sixth month with her who was called barren. 
37 For nothing will be impossible with God.” 
38 And Mary said, “Behold, I am the servant of the Lord; let it be to me according to your word.” And the angel departed from her.

I hope you will come over and visit me at the Seeds of Faith today!
