RESTORATION TODAY
SATURDAY 29TH APRIL 2017
BY PASTOR DR. G.O. OLUTOLA JP.
THEME: THE POWER OF PRAYING [7].
Are any of you suffering hardships? You should pray. Are any of you happy? You should sing praises. James 5: 13.
Have you ever been in what appeared to be an impossible situation with no way out?
Have you ever desperately needed or wanted something, but it seemed as though there was no way you would ever have it Or, have you ever thought there was no future for you If so, you need to know about the power of God that can take place through prayer. As we've seen in the last few days, prayer can change situations, people, and sometimes even the very course of nature.
But what prayer actually changes the most is you. You change when you pray. The objective of prayer is not to change God or get Him to do something differently. The objective of prayer is to align yourself with the will and purposes of God. God will allow hardship and challenges and need and sometimes even tragedy so that He can reveal Himself to us and put His power and glory on display.
He allows things to happen in our lives so we will turn to Him in prayer. In reality, the first thing we should do is pray and ask the Lord for His help, His direction, and even His provision. We need Gods help that is why we pray. When we see our own weakness, we have a greater glimpse of the strength of God.
ACTION POINTS
Prayer should be our first resort; not our last resort. When you pray, you change!
SCRIPTURE:
James 5: 13 16.
PRAYER POINTS:
1. Father, change my situation for good in the name of Jesus.
2. O Lord, take charge of my day today in the name of Jesus.
3. From the biggest to the smallest challenge I'm facing at the moment, intervene in the name of Jesus.
DAILY BIBLE READING:
Number 9: 1 10: 10
Proverb 6: 20 7: 27
1 Peter 1: 13 2: 10.
