The power of prayer!❤️

Verse: [God says,] "I will answer them before they even call to me. While they are still talking about their needs, I will go ahead and answer their prayers!" Isaiah 65:24

Okay guys I have some really exciting news to share with all of you,

Story time:

Since June, I have been praying for God to show me what to do with my life. He told me: "ministry" so in June I applied for a school of ministry. I hadn't heard back from the school of ministry. So in the fall I went to college. Now I am finished with my classes. Yesterday I prayed again: "God showed me what to do with my life." Then less than two hours later the school of ministry emailed me and I am scheduled to interview with them on Monday to see if I get accepted into the school of ministry! Praise God! I believe God answered my prayers! Thank you Jesus!

Maybe right now, you are really struggling. Maybe you have been praying to God for months or years and God hasn't answered you. Maybe you feel depressed, anxious, stressed, hopeless, worthless, and you don't know what to do anymore. No matter what you are going: Go to God in prayer and tell Him your needs. In God's timing (not your timing) He will answer your prayers.

God hears everyone of your prayers. (Psalm 55:17) God will answer anyone of your prayers. (Isaiah 65:24) But God will answer your prayers in HIS timing, not your timing. Sometimes it can be really hard to praying and praying for months or years. And God still hasn't answered your prayer. It can really make you feel discouraged and want to stop praying. My advice to you: Don't stop believing in God, keep praying, keep going, keep seeking God, and He will help you (Psalm 121:1-2).

Keep seeking God by: reading His word, worshiping Him, listening for Him, and praying to Him. I know it's hard to seek God when you are struggling but don't let the Devil stop you from having an amazing relationship with God. Because the Devil wants you to stop seeking God and stop praying because the Devil comes to steal, kill, and destroy. (John 10:10) Don't let the Devil win! Keep seeking and praying even when it hurts. Because as you seek God and pray to Him, God will draw near to you. (Psalm 125:1-2)

As you seek God, God will:

God will love you forever. (Psalm 136:1) God will never leave you. (Hebrews 13:5) God will comfort you. (Isaiah 49:13) God will help you and always be there for you. (Psalm 121:1-2) God will draw near to you. (Psalm 125:1-2) God has an amazing plan for your life. (Jeremiah 29:11)

Remember that prayer is so powerful because God is so great, good, and powerful. (Psalm 31:19) Know that you can do all things through Christ who gives you strength. (Phillpians 4:13)

So keep seeking God, keep praying, and keep believing in God.

You will get through this because with God on your side, you can do anything!  (Matthew 19:26)

Prayer:

Dear God,

Lord I pray that as I seek you by reading your word, worshiping you, listening for you, and talking with you that I grow close to you. Because in your word, you will draw near to those who draw near to you. So I pray you draw near to me. I am really struggling with God and I have some prayer requests. (Tell God your prayer requests) I know that you hear my cries Lord. I believe you will answer my prayers in your timing. So I ask Lord that you bless me with everything I need to face each day. I thank you for this Christmas season. I love celebrating the birth of Your Son. I thank you for listening to me. I praise you for your goodness, grace, and love.

I thank you for all my many blessings and for Your Son.

In Jesus's name, I pray, Amen!
