Good morning; We are living in times when folks are really reaching out for prayer. We are praying for our country, our communities, our leaders, and praying for God to deliver us from this virus. The apostle Paul prayed, a great man of faith, one who believed in the Power of God; he said, “for this thing I besought the Lord thrice, that it might depart from me” (2 Cor. 12:8. There are times in life when we pray, and the answer is no. But also, there are times for God’s own reason; we must endure situations in life. The apostle Paul through much prayer, accepted his problem, not dishearten, but understanding the Sovereignty of God. Jesus spoke to Paul and said, “My grace is sufficient for thee: for my strength is made perfect in weakness. Most gladly, therefore, will I rather glory in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me” (v.9). My friend, understand this morning you may be going through difficult times, and it may not seem as if God is walking with you. But, through your difficulties, find how Jesus is trying to manifest Himself in your life through your situation. Allow the Power of Christ to rest upon your life in the middle of your hurt and pain. My hope is that you would have a divine revelation of the grace of God. “Therefore I take pleasure in infirmities, in reproaches, in necessities, in persecutions, in distress for Christ’s sake: FOR WHEN I AM WEAK, THEN I AM STRONG” (v.10). Father, I pray for our readers this morning that they would feel the manifested Power of Christ resting upon their sickness, upon their pain, upon their distress, and upon their situation in life. As they feel their flesh growing weak, I pray that their spirit would be strengthened through the Holy Ghost of God. Be Blessed in Jesus Name!

Good Morning…join with me this morning as we continue to explore the song and prayer of praise King David offered to the Lord in the thirtieth Psalm. David cried unto the Lord, “Hear, O Lord, and have mercy upon me: Lord, be thou my helper” (Psalms 30:10). If God hears our prayers, if the great God who created the universe divided the waters and spoke light into the world, would give His ear to the petitions of our hearts, it would be the mercy of God. My friend, it is only the mercy of God that we are here this morning. I thank God this morning for His mercy; I thank God that He will give His Holy ear to hear the cries of my heart. David’s plea of mercy was for God to be his helper. To be his helper in pain, to be his helper in temptations, to be his helper during his sufferings and heartaches. Also, in the difficult times of life when we feel like we are growing faint in heart, God will be your helper. I thank God this morning for helping me through all my difficult times. David knew what the help of God would do, listen to his praise of God, “Thou hast turned for me my mourning into dancing: thou hast put off my sackcloth, and girded me with gladness;” (v.11). God will turn the mourning of your heart into dancing at the mention of His name. My friend, keep trusting in the Lord, and get yourself a good pair of dancing shoes because your time is coming! The tears you have shed in prayer, the mourning of your heart will all turn to your favor. Jesus prayed in the garden until his sweat became as drops of blood, and now He is seated at the right hand of the Father! Father, I pray this morning that our readers will be encouraged in their faith and that they will soon feel the tides turning. Be Blessed in Jesus Name.
