Open Eyes to God’s Word

๐Ÿ™Open my eyes, that I may behold Wonderful things from Your law.
Psalms 119:18 NASB1995
https://bible.com/bible/100/psa.119.18.NASB1995

Prayer is an excellent way to start a quiet time with the Lord as you read His Holy word.

๐ŸŒนAnd all things you ask in prayer, believing, you will receive.โ€

It’s Heart Conditioning

Bless those who persecute you; bless and do not curse.
Romans 12:14 NASB1995
https://bible.com/bible/100/rom.12.14.NASB1995

How can you bless them?

But I say to you, love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you,
Matthew 5:44 NASB1995
https://bible.com/bible/100/mat.5.44.NASB1995

bless those who curse you, pray for those who mistreat you.
Luke 6:28 NASB1995
https://bible.com/bible/100/luk.6.28.NASB1995

By prayer we ask for God to bless them. This does two things; it puts the one you are praying for in God’s hands and secondly it humbles our heart toward our enemy. We don’t need to carry the burden of hatred, anguish, resentment, etc. Instead we overcome by the word of God and His power.

๐ŸŒนDo not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good.
Romans 12:21 NASB1995

Prayer is Power

Daniel and his friends, Hananiah, Mishael, and Azariah went to the Lord in prayer . . .

Then the mystery was revealed to Daniel in a night vision. Then Daniel blessed the God of heaven;
Daniel 2:19 NASB1995
https://bible.com/bible/100/dan.2.19.NASB1995

๐ŸŒนTo You, O God of my fathers, I give thanks and praise, For You have given me wisdom and power; Even now You have made known to me what we requested of You, For You have made known to us the kingโ€™s matter.โ€
Daniel 2:23 NASB1995

Prayer Warriors

So Daniel went in and requested of the king that he would give him time, in order that he might declare the interpretation to the king.
Daniel 2:16 NASB1995
https://bible.com/bible/100/dan.2.16.NASB1995

Then Daniel went to his house and informed his friends, Hananiah, Mishael and Azariah, about the matter, so that they might request compassion from the God of heaven concerning this mystery, so that Daniel and his friends would not be destroyed with the rest of the wise men of Babylon.
Daniel 2:17-18 NASB1995
https://bible.com/bible/100/dan.2.17-18.NASB1995

๐Ÿ™Is there someone in your life who you can count on to pray with and for you? If you don’t, pray, asking God to bring you a friend with whom you can count on to be a prayer warrior on your behalf.

๐ŸŒนThank God for friends who pray with and for one another.

Jesus: The Fullness of Peace

Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God. And the peace of God, which surpasses all comprehension, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.
Philippians 4:6-7 NASB1995

1 Corinthians 14:33 NASB1995
https://bible.com/bible/100/1co.14.33.NASB1995

For it was the Fatherโ€™s good pleasure for all the fullness to dwell in Him, and through Him to reconcile all things to Himself, having made peace through the blood of His cross; through Him, I say, whether things on earth or things in heaven.
Colossians 1:19-20 NASB1995
https://bible.com/bible/100/col.1.19-20.NASB1995

Colossians 3:15 NASB1995
https://bible.com/bible/100/col.3.15.NASB1995

๐Ÿ™Now may the God of peace Himself sanctify you entirely; and may your spirit and soul and body be preserved complete, without blame at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ.
1 Thessalonians 5:23 NASB1995
https://bible.com/bible/100/1th.5.23.NASB1995

May the God of peace be your celebration this Christmas as you ponder the gift of sanctification He came to bring.

๐ŸŒนGrace and peace be multiplied to you in the knowledge of God and of Jesus our Lord;

Call Upon the Lord

I love the Lord, because He hears My voice and my supplications. Because He has inclined His ear to me, Therefore I shall call upon Him as long as I live.
Psalms 116:1-2 NASB1995
https://bible.com/bible/100/psa.116.1-2.NASB1995

๐Ÿ™O my God, incline Your ear and hear!ยน
I have called upon You, for You will answer me, O God; Incline Your ear to me, hear my speech.ยฒ
Incline Your ear to me, rescue me quickly; Be to me a rock of strength, A stronghold to save me.ยณ
I am not presenting my supplications before You on account of any merit of my own (my righteousness), but on account of Your great compassion.ยน
But certainly God has heard; He has given heed to the voice of my prayer.โด
I waited patiently for the Lord; And He inclined to me and heard my cry.โต
Thank You, God. Amen

United Through Christ

Jesus in prayer with the Father:

that they may all be one; even as You, Father, are in Me and I in You, that they also may be in Us, so that the world may believe that You sent Me. The glory which You have given Me I have given to them, that they may be one, just as We are one; I in them and You in Me, that they may be perfected in unity, so that the world may know that You sent Me, and loved them, even as You have loved Me.
John 17:21-23 NASB1995

so we, who are many, are one body in Christ, and individually members one of another.
Romans 12:5 NASB1995
https://bible.com/bible/100/rom.12.5.NASB1995

The Mightiest God!

Do you not know what I (Sennacherib) and my fathers have done to all the peoples of the lands? Were the gods of the nations of the lands able at all to deliver their land from my hand? Who was there among all the gods of those nations which my fathers utterly destroyed who could deliver his people out of my hand, that your God should be able to deliver you from my hand?

Now therefore, do not let Hezekiah deceive you or mislead you like this, and do not believe him, for no god of any nation or kingdom was able to deliver his people from my hand or from the hand of my fathers. How much less will your God deliver you from my hand?โ€™โ€‰โ€
2 Chronicles 32:13-15 NASB1995
https://bible.com/bible/100/2ch.32.13-15.NASB1995

The power of prayer.

And the Lord sent an angel who destroyed every mighty warrior, commander and officer in the camp of the king of Assyria. So he returned in shame to his own land. And when he had entered the temple of his god, some of his own children killed him there with the sword.
2 Chronicles 32:21 NASB1995
https://bible.com/bible/100/2ch.32.21.NASB1995
