THE POWER OF PRAYER AND PRAISE 2


MEMORY VERSE: - Acts 16:25 - "And at midnight Paul and Silas prayed, and sang praises unto God: and the prisoners heard them"

Wherefore, verse 26 of our text made us understand that when Paul and Silas prayed and praised God, He came through for them. "And suddenly there was a great earthquake, so that the foundations of the prison were shaken." It didn't take long, their God arose in His power and sent an earthquake to the prison that shook it to its foundation. 

You may recall that the jailer having received a strict command, threw them into the innermost prison which is the dungeon or in today's terms, the maximum security cell and clamped down their legs with irons. He did it so that by no means would they be able to escape. 

But our Most High God, the Almighty God, the God whose name is Jahovah, the God who chooses to become whatever He wants to become for the sake of His children came in His power into the prison as an earthquake and shook it to its foundation.

Interestingly, the earthquake began to break open the maximum security prison doors, loose bands, broke chains, and set the captives free..... "immediately all the doors were opened, and every one's bands were loosed" What is that thing that can withstand the power of our God? Absolutely nothing. Alleluia!!!

Child of God, What have the enemies done against you to stop you? They may have locked up, chained, or buried something to stop your progress in life but today the Lord will arise as a Mighty warrior for you. He will send forth thunder, earthquakes, to their roots and destroy them.

So, don't just pray but mix your prayers with praise and watch God come through for you. Psalm 107:15-16 says, "Oh that men would praise the LORD for his goodness, And for his wonderful works to the children of men! For he hath broken the gates of brass, And cut the bars of iron in sunder."

PRAYER
Oh, yes Lord God Almighty, we praise you for your goodness and for your wonderful works towards us! For truly you have broken the gates of brass, and cut the bars of iron in sunder!!

MEMBERS OF GOD'S FAMILY 2

  AbayeLiz Daily Inspirational MEMBERS OF GOD'S FAMILY 2 MEMORY VERSE: - 2 Corinthians 3:6 - “He has made us competent as ministers of a new covenant—not of the letter but of the Spirit; for the letter kills, but the Spirit gives life.” Like I said in the part one of this topic, Jesus did not come to bring another religion but to bring sons and daughters unto the Father.  Religion is nothing but an ideology, but relationship and family is the real thing. Wherefore, Christ has enabled us to be children of God by the Spirit not of laws (religion). The old written covenant ends in death; but under the new covenant, the Spirit gives life. Living in religion kills but being a man or woman of relationship gives life. What Satan is using to rob people of their right to experiencing God's full package for them is religion.  Religion is a mock, a counterfeit, and a deception. But that which God offers us is relationship by the power of the Spirit.  Christianity is not in religion but an

AVOID DIVERSIONS

AVOID DIVERSIONS MEMORY VERSE: - Jonah 1:3 - "But Jonah got up and went in the opposite direction to get away from the LORD. He went down to the port of Joppa, where he found a ship leaving for Tarshish. He bought a ticket and went on board, hoping to escape from the LORD by sailing to Tarshish” (NLT) One of the ways the devil is using to rub many people of their blessing is through diversions. The Lord gave a message to Jonah to go to the city of Nineveh and announce his judgment against it because of their wickedness but Jonah chose not to go, instead he went another way and his own way the scripture says was the "Opposite Direction." Oftentimes, people choose to go the opposite direction against God's original agenda for them when things are not going as planned. When vision is being delayed and when they are hit with challenges and difficulties in the process of trying to achieve what they were given to do. In the opposite direction is confusion.... In the opposi

NOW IS YOUR MOMENT

  AbayeLiz Daily Inspirational   NOW IS YOUR MOMENT MEMORY VERSE: - John 11:21-24, "Then said Martha unto Jesus, Lord, if thou hadst been here, my brother had not died. But I know, that even now, whatsoever thou wilt ask of God, God will give it thee. Jesus saith unto her, Thy brother shall rise again. Martha saith unto him, I know that he shall rise again in the resurrection at the last day"   A lot of people pray but do not believe they can have the answer to their request immediately. Their faith is always in the future. The mindset of future has kept them from embracing that which is theirs at the moment. Thus, they neglect the place of faith in the now of today’s experience. While Martha could only think of the future as the only time her brother could rise again from the dead, Jesus was seeing it happening in the moment. Beloved, it's time to wake up and begin to walk in the 'now' faith. What is now? It means at the present time or moment. it is right
