“Miracles Through Prayers”
Monday, September 30, 2024Key Verse
“And the king granted me, according to the good hand of my God upon me.” Nehemiah 2:8c
Text — Nehemiah 2:4:8
Message
Any concern too small to be turned into prayer is too small to be made a burden (Corrie Ten Boom) Why worry when you can pray goes a popular chorus. All our worries and concerns can be properly taken care of by God through prayers. No wonder 1 Thessalonians 5:17 commands us to pray without ceasing. Praying without ceasing implies that, moment by moment your heart is connected with heaven. That way there will be no room for fear, worry or anxiety.
Nehemiah in our Bible passage had concern for his people and Jerusalem. He took that concern to the Lord in prayers with fasting. God turned his misery to miracle. He got much more than he requested of the king. Truly there is no impossibility with our God. Stay through in the place of prayers and all your concerns will turn to celebrations.
