What is recommended?

Top priority:  focus on living a righteous life and pleasing God:

“But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness;

and all these things shall be added unto you.”

Preparation for Receiving a Soul Mate

1.       Am I ready to share my life with someone else?

2.       Do I know how to handle responsibility?

3.       Is my financial income adequate?

4.       Am I ready to make a commitment to someone else?

Bible Verses:

For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal, but mighty through God, to the pulling down of strong holds.  II Corinthians 10:4

The Lord is my shepherd: I shall not want. Psalm 23:1

No weapon that is formed against us shall prosper: and every tongue that shall rise against thee in judgment thou shalt condemn. This is the heritage of the servants of the LORD, and their righteousness is of me, saith the LORD.  Isaiah 54:17

Source of information: King James Bible

“No weapon that is designed to use against me, shall succeed.

I will stand my ground: I will defend myself against all evil.

Through the power of prayer, I will gain victory!”

This is an S.O.S to God (prayer)

Dear God,
This is an S.O.S call to you. This is another day I've awaken to find a heavier burden to bear.
I realize this burden is too heavy for me to bear, so I come to you in so much pain and shame.

Lord please answer this prayer.

My enemies oppress me daily, they criticize me Lord, and scandalize my name. Now, they seek to destroy me.

Lord, I have nowhere to run, and no place to hide.
I know that jealousy, hate, and wrong doings have made me a prisoner and a slave to sin.
They brought me here to this lonely and fearful place, and there is no way out for me.

I heard about a man, named Jesus, who died for me. And that the blood from his wounds, and the pain in his body, and the shame, and suffering he endured on the cross for me, was a sacrificial offering for all.

Jesus, Jesus, God, please show me your mercy Lord, show me your mercy Lord, show me your grace Lord.

Father, please let the blood that Jesus shed clean my soul, and let it free me from this prison.
Father, please remove this burden, and defend me against my enemies, that seek after my soul.
They seek to destroy me Lord. Please answer this S.O.S call.

Jesus, I thank you for the blood, that you shed for me. I can feel your love all around me.
In my heart, I know that you are here.
And I know that your angels are watching over me.

I thank you Jesus, for sacrificing your life for all.
And God, I thank you, for answering my S.O.S call.
Amen.

Prayer in Times of Distress

“When all hope is gone and your back is against the wall, ‘Pray.’

Ask God to guide you and he will take good care of you.”

― Ellen J. Barrier

And when he was in affliction, he besought the LORD his God, and humbled himself greatly before the God of his fathers, and prayed unto him: and he was entreated of him, and heard his supplication, and brought him again to Jerusalem into his kingdom. Then Manasseh knew that the LORD he was God. 11 Chronicles 33:12, 13

Story:

 Manasseh was the ruler of Jerusalem for fifty-five years. During his range he was described as one who caused the people to commit acts that were displeasing to God. Therefore, he and those who followed his leadership had been warned to correct their errors. And because of his disobedience, it was said “Wherefore the LORD brought upon them the captains of the host of the king of Assyria, which took Manasseh among the thorns, and bound him with fetters, and carried him into Babylon.” 11 Chronicles 33:11

My Thoughts:

In times of afflictions, whether, they are health related, or a condition whereby one feels they are imprisoned, they seek help.  Manasseh, did as many others do, he turned to the God who his ancestors trusted for help. He received help from God, and became a better leader. He corrected many of his wrongdoings. And because of the changes he made in his leadership, the people made some positive changes as well. When leadership is strengthened and governed with righteous behavior, the people are better for it.

Why Should I Pray?

                                                                                

                                                                                    

Ellen J. Barrier

Prayer is like a therapy, we get the opportunity to empty our entire being to our creator. At the same time we have confidence that he can resolve our problems. Prayer gives us courage, hope and strength. It also, helps us to have patience. It allows us to be aware of other people's feelings. Through prayer we become better individuals. The overall results of prayer and reading inspirational material, such as the bible, poems, and meditation, bring about peace that creates joy and happiness within us. We are able to view life situations and the future clearer. Therefore, our health is improved, because our mind isn't overloaded with stress.

The purpose of Prayer

Scripture: (1 Peter 5:7)

Casting all your care upon him: for he careth for you.

Life is a gift, and it offers us the privilege, opportunity, and responsibility to give something back by becoming more._ Anthony Robbins
