” This is my command- be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid or discouraged. For the Lord your God is with you wherever you go.” Joshua 1:9
” And so I tell you, keep on asking and you will receive what you ask for. Keep on seeking and you will find. Keep on knocking, and the door will be opened to you. For everyone who asks, receives. Everyone who seeks finds. And to everyone who knocks the door will be opened.” Luke 11:9-10
Sometimes we must be reminded that God is always with us. It doesn’t matter where we are physically, mentally or spiritually our God is right there beside us. He gave his son, Jesus to die for us. He sent his Holy Spirt to guide and help us along. He has made himself available to us all hours of the night and day. Many of us have been brought up to believe that we need to be in church in order for God to hear our prayers. Others believe that they need the Pastor or the Reverend to pray over them to receive. Nothing could be farther from the truth. Our God wants to hear from us. It does not have to a long flowing prayer as we hear some pray. All we have to do is keep it simple and from the heart. There have been times in my life where I stop what I am doing and take time to reflect on a short conversation with the Lord. It doesn’t matter what the situation is, our God has the answer. We can always rest assured that he hears us and is ready to help. Whenever fear, discouragement, doubt or worries try to overcome us we should always go to God in prayer. He should always be the first and the last in our plan to overcome. He tells us to be consistent in prayer. We are to never stop knocking at the door or stop seeking the truth. He promises that the door will always be opened. He promises that to those who seek that they will find. With Jesus all things are possible! Our prayers are heard and always answered! We must believe we receive because God is our source! PRAISE THE LORD IN ALL THINGS!
