Answered Prayers!

Not to be taken Lightly!

1 Kings 8:49, Psalm 86:7, Proverbs 28:9, Matthew 6:7, Acts 2:42, 2 Corinthians 1:11, Revelation 8:3.

Many people pray and think nothing more about what they have done, some hope others do it out of ritual or traditions? But we can say it has worked after three weeks of coughing sneezing and two more weeks of other problems, we are hopefully back on form?

God says he hears us when we pray and prayer is not always hands or actions, but rather thoughts in our mind and words from our hearts!

'Oh God help, 'I'm in trouble, 'One or we cannot cope with this or that?

It is God who knows if we are genuine in what we are saying or not and He will answer us in His right timing!

A bed of Roses?

Stephen and being a Believer!

The traditional image of the Christian Church is of it being easy, like a bed of roses?

But to be a born-again believer is only for the tough and its great to know that God chooses us for His service!

Weak things are strength, while those who appear to be strong are really the weaklings!

Stephen was a man who spoke the truth to a libertine world of his day and they could not cope with him so they did the same as with Jesus a year earlier.

So they set him up and had him stoned to death, but he was tougher because he forgave them and asked God that this not be held against them!
