This was a text message i sent to family and friends earlier this afternoon. I wanted to send it to all my brothers and sisters in Christ. It was then that i realized that ALL OF YOU ARE MY BROTHERS AND SISTERS IN CHRIST. It is with that sentiment that i ask for your prayers tonight. I humbly ask that you lift me up and that the Holy Spirit show up and show out! Thanks. Below is the text i sent earlier:
Sorry for the mass email but I need prayer warriors! The prayers have helped in the past with the move and new house. I know that prayer works! There is an opportunity presented with a university here that despite all understanding, I have gotten this far in the hiring process. The Holy Spirit has lined up everything. I claim this position as Director of ####### ####### boldly and I ask that in your conversations with God, you claim if for me as well. I am not ashamed to ask my brothers and sisters in Christ for this as I would do it for you in a heartbeat as well. Thanks everyone!
I thank you lord for my family. I thank you lord for being patient with me as I had my brief weakness about when is it my time. I pray for the girls as they go back to school. I know lord that you are ALWAYS with us and that in your due time, blessings beyond imagination will come upon myself and my family. I pray for TXXXXX as she is going thru some bad times. I pray for MXXX that he does the right thing. I pray for RXXXand the kind heart you have instilled him him. As a door closes, I know that you will open another. I thank you lord for this. In Jesus Name, Amen.
Is there a connection between “…Jesus often withdrew to lonely places and prayed.” (Luke 5:16), and “…the power of the Lord was present for him to heal the sick.” (Luke 5:17)
What a good reminder of the prayer and power of prayer.
