Prayers not cares

Oh how I LOVE Pastor Prince!!!  This morning I worked with a client who has had headaches for YEARS.  As I worked through the session, I suddenly felt led to pray for her (although I begin every BodyTalk session I do with a word of prayer) and the Lord began to heal her at a VERY deep level!!!  Then He showed me some reflexology tools to help release the tension in her head! 

I praise God for this devotional! It was the reminder that I needed today not to keep on worrying over her (or my other ill clients) but rather to keep praying for them earnestly and expect miracles of healing in their lives!  God can do ANYTHING that we ask Him to do and He does it in His special way!  I urge you to read this story and become inspired to ask God for ALL of the answers that you are needing in your life!

God bless,

Dawn   

                                            Turn Your Cares Into Prayers

Philippians 4:6
Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God;
My friend, God doesn’t want you to be fearful, fretful or anxious. Instead, He wants you to “be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God”.

So when you have a care or worry, straightaway, turn that care or worry into prayer. That is supplication. And when you are troubled by a care or worry that you don’t know how to pray for, pray in the Spirit or tongues. And in the midst of that prayer, thank God that He is already your healing, provision, good success and victory. That, my friend, is thanksgiving.

“Pastor Prince, if I am worried about something, how long should I pray?”

Keep on praying. Pray in the Spirit until the worry lifts or dissipates, “and the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus”. (Philippians 4:7)

This was what one of our church members did when he found himself anxiously trying to access some important data in his USB flash drive. After a whole day at it with no results, he finally stopped himself from being anxious and instead, turned his worry into prayer, asking the Lord to settle it for him. As he prayed in tongues, he was also thankfully repeating in his heart that having the Holy Spirit—the Helper—with him was to his advantage. (John 16:7)

Later that evening, using his wife’s computer, he succeeded in accessing the data in his flash drive after a few attempts. He quickly backed up the data. It was only when subsequent attempts to use the flash drive on his wife’s computer failed did it suddenly dawn on him that God had “resurrected” his flash drive that one time, just for him to recover his data!

Beloved, I believe that we would all worry a lot less and enjoy our lives a lot more if only we realized this truth: Our Abba Father is so strong that there is nothing He cannot do, and He is so loving that there is nothing He will not do for us!
