The Power of Earnest Prayer

Elijah was a man with a nature like ours, and he prayed earnestly that it would not rain, and it did not rain on the earth for three years and six months. Then he prayed again, and the sky poured rain and the earth produced its fruit.

In 1 Kings 17:1-7 Elijah says there will be no rain.

In Luke 4:25 Jesus affirms that Elijah prayed and there was no rain for three years and six months.

In 1 Kings 18:41-46 Elijah prays and the rain returned.

“And the earth produced its fruit”.

The power of prayer and the fruit of prayer.

Prayer is powerful. It changes lives. . . It changes us. . . It changes others.
Who are you earnestly praying for? Do you believe that you will see the fruit of your prayers?

🌹First of all, then, I urge that entreaties and prayers, petitions and thanksgivings, be made on behalf of all men, . . . This is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Savior, who desires all men to be saved and to come to the knowledge of the truth.
