What a mighty God we serve

The reason I am awake at this hour of the night (actually morning), is because every time I closed my eyes to sleep, it kept running through my mind how powerful prayer is when it is directed at the One we call our Father. What a priviledge, to be part of that blood line, through the saving grace of Jesus. I am reminded that it has the power to bring life into dead bodies and dried-up bones, to heal the sick, and make the lame to walk. It will restore sight, speech and hearing. And it can heal the broken-hearted. Never loose sight of the fact that when you are in a child/parent relationship with your God, that it is as simple as sitting down and talking to Him to ensure that He hears your concerns. Go have a chat with Your Father. He is always waiting and eager to listen.

Father, keep Your protective hand over those I love and care for. Guide them in Your infinite wisdom and provide them with power and courage. Open their eyes to the grace You provide even in the most wearisome and trying of times. Bring peace into their hearts and minds. Deliver them from evil. As always I am reminded that to You belong the glory, the power and the strength through all the ages and into eternity. I thank You for being Abba/Father; the origin, the provider, the pillar. Amen.
