So there is a caveat to prayers: Whenever any request will bring ridicule to God’s name or a snare to us, God reserves the right to turn it down.

Prayer does more than meeting our temporal needs; it is what helps us to access the plans and purposes of God for us and the universe at large.

As a child of God, your life should be run by every word that proceeds from the mouth of your heavenly Father. 

It took the timely intervention of Abigail to dissuade him from taking vengeance. Nabal eventually died some days after that at the instance of God.

Our prayer is a strong safeguard for leaders. We have no moral authority to condemn people that we have not first held up in intercession.

In other words, when someone comes to Jesus they are forgiven completely. They will not have to worry if God is going to ask them to pay up in the future. Jesus paid it all!

The Bible warns us against compulsive anger. It can never produce anything positive. Sometimes, a little more restraint can bring resolution to what irks us.

In Revelation 1-3, we are enjoined to hear what the Spirit is saying, not just what He once said. We must learn to connect with every word that proceeds from the mouth of God.

It is His mercy that releases His power in our direction when we can neither see nor trust Him.

It is only the mighty God that can do great things. If we catch a revelation of this mighty God, we will not cease to experience great things all our days.
