THE POWER

Of Prayer

 

Sincere prayer draws you closer to God. Regardless of how painful your “low places” may be, God still hears your prayers. God’s grace is your strength and His love for you is unconditional. Wait on the Lord! He has an appointed time to answer your prayers.


Daily Suggested Scripture

“PRIORITIZING WORSHIP”

“But the hour cometh, and now is, when the true worshippers shall worship the Father in spirit and in truth: for the Father seeketh such to worship him.” John 4:23

 



GIVING

Online

 

 If you give, you will receive. Your gift will return to you in full measure, pressed down shaken together to make room for more, and running over. Whatever measure you use in giving -- large or small, it will be used to measure what is given back to you. 
(Luke 6:38, NLT).

Title - When Jesus Comes To The Rescue
Focus verse: 15 {KJV}
 

They went across the lake to the region of the Gerasenes.
When Jesus got out of the boat, a man with an impure spirit came from the tombs to meet him. 
This man lived in the tombs, and no one could bind him anymore, not even with a chain. 
For he had often been chained hand and foot, but he tore the chains apart and broke the irons on his feet. No one was strong enough to subdue him. 
Night and day among the tombs and in the hills he would cry out and cut himself with stones.

When he saw Jesus from a distance, he ran and fell on his knees in front of him. 
He shouted at the top of his voice, “What do you want with me, Jesus, Son of the Most High God? In God’s name don’t torture me!” 
For Jesus had said to him, “Come out of this man, you impure spirit!”

15 When they came to Jesus, they saw the man who had been possessed by the legion of demons, sitting there, dressed and in his right mind; and they were afraid.
