“And my God will meet all your needs according to His glorious riches in Christ Jesus.” Philippians 4: 19
What does your heart need today? Is it a prayer request to be answered? Is it a solution to a problem going on in your life? Is it a need that you can’t quite define?
There is a remedy for our need. But sometimes we skip over it because it’s hard to take the time for it, we don’t see quick results, or we take the human nature route: we worry through our problems.
The sweet remedy is prayer.
What’s your need again? Are you concerned about how your child is doing in school? Are you worried about that upcoming test? As a dancer, are you fretting over that upcoming audition? Or are you a parent, worried about your financial situation? Is your need something you can’t quite define….do you feel extra emotional? Do you feel like something is missing?
Take it to prayer.
Take a step of faith by believing that when you pray, God is there.
When you pray, God hears every word.
When you pray, you invite God into your situation.
When you pray, it makes God’s heart giddy.
When you pray, He moves on your behalf.
When you pray, your need will be met.
But here is an important key…
Keep praying.
Don’t stop praying when the answer doesn’t come.
Don’t stop praying when you are tired of praying.
Praying takes times. Praying takes persistence. Praying takes waiting. And then…the waiting becomes praying.
Some answers will come quickly. Some answers will seem like they take forever. But believe today that the answers WILL come.
Praying is nurturing your relationship with Jesus. Praying is hanging out with the One who completes your soul, your life, and your every need.
Remember that we have a remedy for our needs….we can pray.
Prayer: “Lord, thank You for the gift of prayer. Remind me of it’s importance, remind me of it’s power. Remind me that bringing each and every need of my heart to You is the answer. Thank You that You meet all my needs, every one.”
