Remember Them in Your Prayers

One of the greatest gifts anyone could give you is to bring you before God in prayer! It is empowering to know that people are thinking of you and praying for you? Someone who cares about you enough to take the time to bring you before the Creator of the universe is truly a gift from heaven!

The principle of sowing and reaping is exciting! Taking the time to pray for someone God has put on your heart will result in more prayers reaching the throne of heaven on your behalf! Since the principle of sowing and reaping works in every area of life, you can be sure that prayer is no exception! What you make happen for others, you can be sure that God will make happen for you!

Apostle Paul loved his son in the faith, Timothy, and here is what he said to him.

2Timothy 1:3  I thank God, whom I serve, as my forefathers did, with a clear conscience, as night and day I constantly remember you in my prayers.

John 15:13  “ Greater love has no one than this that he lay his life down for his friends.”

There are people in your life who desperately need a touch from God today! May today be your day to lay your life down for those who need their names lifted up to heaven! Oh, yes! God wants to release heaven’s breakthrough into somebody’s life through you today!

You know, Jesus often went to solitary places to pray because he knew the power of prayer! Do you know the power of prayer? Somebody needs your prayer today, and today God is calling you to…
