When Prayer Requests and Thanksgiving is Made to God

In times of distress, and stressful situations, when burdens become heavy, and difficult to carry, due to heartaches, loss, hopelessness, and such things that bring pain and sorrows, we search for comfort through prayers. Our friends and love ones are there to offer their support that gives us strength to move forward.

Songs of praise with prayers and thanksgiving are made to God on our behalf; asking him to intervene and give us his blessings of grace and mercy, and guide us through the storm.

In times of sickness, we pray for healing.

In times of financial loss, we pray for prosperity.

In times of losses, we ask God to restore.

We Pray to God in our times of need, because we believe he answers prayer.

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.
