Prayer and Intercession Matters to Our World

GOD is spirit, and His worshipers must worship 

in spirit and in truth."

John 4:24 NIV

Prayer makes a difference, look at this…

“And this is the confidence that we have in Him, that, if we ask any thing according to His will, He hears us: And if we know that He hear us, whatever we ask, we know that we have the petitions that we desired of Him. If any man see his brother sin a sin which is not to death, he shall ask, and He shall give him life for them that sin not to death. There is a sin to death: I do not say that he shall pray for it. All unrighteousness is sin: and there is a sin not to death.” 1 John 5:14-17 AKJV

Prayer and intercession for others make a very big difference because we have been blessed with this ability. Since we believers have this gift from GOD to intercede, it is helping our love ones and others remain out of hell. Apostle James said this concerning prayer: Confess your faults one to another, and pray one for another, that you may be healed. “The effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man avails much.” James 5:16 AKJV

Okay, the key is living as GOD desires without sin. Think about this for a moment. Do you have unanswered prayers? How is your life? Apostle James said: “The effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man avails much.” James 5:16 AKJV ~ Are you living as God desires? Prayer is effective when you are living as GOD desires, not as you desire.  Apostle Paul urged Timothy to pray for everyone. It is important to intercede for others. He also urged Timothy to pray for people in authority. We need to pray for our politicians and the President of the United States.  Apostle Paul wrote:  

“I urge you, first of all, to pray for all people. Ask God to help them; intercede on their behalf, and give thanks for them. Pray this way for kings and all who are in authority so that we can live peaceful and quiet lives marked by godliness and dignity. This is good and pleases God our Savior, who wants everyone to be saved and to understand the truth. For there is only one

God and one Mediator who can reconcile God and humanity—the man Christ Jesus. He gave His life to purchase freedom for everyone. This is the message God gave to the world at just the right time.” 1 Timothy 2:1-6 NLT  

Again, it is important to intercede for others.  Apostle Paul said: 

 “Pray this way for kings and all who are in authority so that we can live peaceful and quiet lives marked by godliness and dignity. This is good and pleases God our Savior, who wants everyone to be saved and to understand the truth.” 1Timothy 2:2-4 NLT 

We have been blessed with this ability to intercede for others therefore, prayer makes a big difference.  This gift from GOD is helping our loved ones and others remain out of hell and finally the ‘lake of fire’ after the judgment.

Never Give Up! GOD Is Spirit And You Are His Child...

  

 Never Give Up!  

GOD Is A Spirit, And You Are His Child...

 Concentrating on your spirituality will assist you in developing a positive relationship with yourself and with GOD if that is your choice.  Every religion requires quality study and meditative quiet time with God and your spiritual self; King David is our greatest example for showing how important meditation and quiet time are with GOD and your spiritual self.  He and others were able to write 150 Psalms, and these Psalms are great for meditation thousands of years later.
 

GOD is Spirit, 

and His worshipers

 must worship in spirit

 and in truth.   

John 4:24 NIV

* Here are three things that a believer should study and meditate on to be successful spiritually. First, "GOD is spirit, and those who worship Him must worship in spirit and truth." John 4:24 ESV @ http://biblehub.com/john/4-24.htm
 ~ ~ Secondly, "…the word of GOD is alive and powerful. It is sharper than the sharpest two-edged sword, cutting between soul and spirit, between joint and marrow. It exposes our innermost thoughts and desires. Nothing in all creation is hidden from GOD. Everything is naked and exposed before His eyes, and He is the one to whom we are accountable." Hebrews 4:12-13 NLT @ http://biblehub.com/nlt/hebrews/4.htm
Thirdly, "Above all, you must realize that no prophecy in Scripture ever came from the prophet’s own understanding or from human initiative. No, those prophets were moved by the Holy Spirit, and they spoke from GOD." 2 Peter 1:20-21 NLT @ http://biblehub.com/nlt/2_peter/1.htm

*A Special Prayer:   

 

Dear LORD GOD, I thank you for your gift of JESUS CHRIST and the Holy Spirit, my Personal Spiritual Counselor.  You are my source, and all of the answers that I seek are within You. The answers to everything that I seek can be found within You and Your Word.  Thanks again for helping me to turn to Your Holy Spirit for guidance in all of my affairs.  Thanks for coming into my heart and life and accepting me as one of your heirs.  Thank you for blessing me with the ability to find all my answers by meditating and studying who I am in You.  You are my source, and your love for me opens the door to all Spiritual Truths.  I am no longer in bondage to the spirits of the world, but I am free within You with Your Holy Spirit as my Teacher and Personal Guide. Thanks for the blessing of the Holy Spirit as a daily part of my life in JESUS’ Name forever.  Amen

Part 3 – Spirits in Our World Excerpts

"God is spirit, and His worshipers must worship in spirit and in truth."

John 4:24 NIV

‘You have to “Embrace Your Spirituality” and begin to “Live Free”.

You control your destiny, but God is destiny.’

*“But the Holy Spirit produces this kind of fruit in our lives: love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control. There is no law against these things! Those who belong to Christ Jesus have nailed the passions and desires of their sinful nature to his cross and crucified them there we are living by the Spirit, let us follow the Spirit’s leading in every part of our lives. Let us not become conceited, or provoke one another, or be jealous of one another.” 

Galatians 5:22-26 ~

*Excerpt from Living by the Spirit’s Power noted at Galatians 5 found at

Part 3 – Spirits in Our World Excerpts

**“Believers and followers of God have access to that power and knowledge. A believer and follower should be worry-free. What is the point of worrying? God has a plan already, all we have to do is follow His directions and we will be free from worrying about all the negativity in the world.” …

“Jesus prayed for us before He was crucified at Calvary. He prayed for Himself, His Disciples, and Future Believers. There is no reason for anyone professing to be Christ-like (**Christian) to be living painful and negative lives. We have been blessed with everything that we need to be successful whether we are rich or poor (financially challenged); in good health or have an illness; employed or unemployed; etc., etc., etc. In God and Jesus Christ’s eyes, we are all created equally sinful and in need of God's gift of Jesus Christ and the Holy Spirit to survive in the world’s daily turmoil of daily living. Praise God!"  Careful study of your bible (the Word of God), opens up avenues that you will miss if you are not careful. God allows us to choose what we want to do with our lives. We have a personal right to follow Him or other gods or nothing…

“A tree is identified by its fruit. If a tree is good, its fruit will be good. If a tree is bad, its fruit will be bad. You brood of snakes! How could evil men like you speak what is good and right?  For whatever is in your heart determines what you say. A good person produces good things from the treasury of a good heart, and an evil person produces evil things from the treasury of an evil heart. And I tell you this, you must give an account on judgment day for every idle word you speak. The words you say will either acquit you or condemn you.” Matthew 12:30-37 NLT …
