we need to pray


Choose to pray.  


Yesterday we talked about connecting with people.  The best way to keep the connection and assure that it is clear is to begin the connection with God.  Our connection to God.


We hear from Him in many ways, yet the best connection is to pray.  This is a subject and need that we have examined many times in the devotions I have shared.  


Prayer is essential.  Circumstances in our lives and around the world call us to pray.


A friend with a health need… we need to pray.


A conflict in another part of the world… we need to pray.


All the time and not just in crisis… we need to pray.


That is why I bring this to ur attention once again today with the needs around us growing in so many ways.  We can pray and connect with God.


He is able, and He is listening.


Spend time praying today because… we need to pray.


2 Chronicles 7:15  NLT

My eyes will be open and my ears attentive to every prayer made in this place.


Lamentations 2:19  NLT

Rise during the night and cry out. Pour out your hearts like water to the Lord. Lift up your hands to him in prayer, pleading for your children, for in every street they are faint with hunger.


Ephesians 6:18  NLT

Pray in the Spirit at all times and on every occasion. Stay alert and be persistent in your prayers for all believers everywhere.


Philippians 4:6  NLT

Don’t worry about anything; instead, pray about everything. Tell God what you need, and thank him for all he has done.


1 Timothy 2:8  NLT

In every place of worship, I want men to pray with holy hands lifted up to God, free from anger and controversy.


We need to pray!

Have you heard of EDITH BURNS?

Edith Burns was a wonderful Christian who lived in San Antonio, Texas . She was the patient of a doctor by the name of Will Phillips. Dr. Phillips was a gentle doctor who saw patients as people. His favorite patient was Edith Burns.  One morning he went to his office with a heavy heart and it was because of Edith Burns.  When he walked into that waiting room, there sat Edith with her big black Bible in her lap earnestly talking to a young mother sitting beside her.  Edith Burns had a habit of introducing herself in this way: "Hello, my name is Edith Burns.  Do you believe in Easter?" Then she would explain the meaning of Easter, and many times people would be saved.  Dr. Phillips walked into that office and there he saw the head nurse, Beverly. Beverly had first met Edith when she was taking her blood pressure. Edith began by saying,"My name is Edith Burns. Do you believe in Easter?"  Beverly said, "Why yes I do."  Edith said, "Well, what do you

why is it Good Friday?

  Holy Week is the time we focus on God and His gift of salvation.  We come to Friday.  The day we remember the cross, Jesus’ death and all God has done for you and me   Why do they call this day “Good Friday” because it doesn’t seems good?   Jesus was treated as a criminal.  He was beaten so much that He could not recognize Him.  His pain would have been too much for you or me to endure.  That is especially from Scripture I’ve read or as in the movie the  Passion of the Christ .   Yet it is a good day.  It is Good Friday because God had our good in His heart.  What Jesus did that day changed our forever direction. Here are some thoughts that come to me:   He is Redemption and Redeemer   He too our Pain and Punishment   He is our Righteousness and Reality   He is the Savior and Life   All of those happened from the cross.  It was meant for the worst lawbreakers.  It was not meant for a Savior who never broke a law.  It was lifted high so that onlookers could see the price Jesus.   Look
