Prayer Power

5/8/219

When you have power in your praying, you have faith in your prayers. So many Christians do not have faith in their prayers maybe because they do not keep a prayer diary so that they can see how many prayers God has answered. If you are like me, many prayers go up during the day then when God answers them, thanks go up. However, few of them are recorded and over time, you forget them because they were for “small” everyday needs. Things that seem like such little prayers as “Please Lord, let the dog food last until payday” and it does. We, as humans have a tendency to forget those answered prayers which means sometimes we do not realize how much we really believe in our prayers.

By keeping a Prayer Diary, we will have a record of the prayers answered and this builds our faith in the God who answers prayers. We also have to realize that our faith in our prayers and in God who answers them will grow until we can pray (ask God) for something “big” with enough faith that God answers it.

I pray that you will remember the prayers that God has answered for you and let it build your faith (power) in God answering your prayers.
