The Prayers of the Saints! - 3

 

To keep America great, we need the Protection of God, we need to proclaim the Truth of God’s Word, and we need the prayer of the Saints.



Jeremiah 33:3 - Call unto me, and I will answer thee, and shew thee great and mighty things, which thou knowest not. 

 

1 Thessalonians 5:17 - Pray without ceasing. 

 

We would rejoice more if we prayed more. We should keep up stated times for prayer and continue instant in prayer. We should pray always, and not faint: pray without weariness, and continue in prayer, till we come to that world where prayer shall be swallowed up in praise. The meaning is not that men should do nothing but pray, but that nothing else we do should hinder prayer in its proper season. Prayer will help forward and not hinder all other lawful business, and every good work.

 

James 5:16 - Confess your faults one to another, and pray one for another, that ye may be healed. The effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man availeth much. 

 

“Confess your faults one to another and pray one for another, that ye may be healed.” We are to confess our sins to God but our faults one to another. If I have injured you, then I ought to confess that to you. But I will not confess my sins to you, and I do not want you confessing your sins to me. You are to confess that to the Lord. ( J. Vernon McGee) “If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness” 

 

Don’t allow your prayers to be hindered by unconfessed sin. God tells us in 1 John 1:9 - If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness. 

 

Pray for our country, pray for our spiritual leaders, pray for our political leaders, then trust God to work His will!
