Word of the Day: Tired of praying? Don't give up, the answer will come!

Have you been praying for something for ages? Keep going, don't give up! The Bible warns us that when we do not receive what we are praying for it is sometimes because we do not know how to ask. Sometimes we only use prayer as our last resort, but in the Bible, we are told that we should never stop praying!

16 Rejoice always, 17 pray continually, 18 give thanks in all circumstances; for this is God’s will for you in Christ Jesus.

1 Thessalonians 5:16-18

A life built on continually praying would be an incredible life! But it is also a real challenge to us, because all too often our prayers run dry, and we get tired of asking, of going for years without seeing the door opening.

Do not give up praying. Jesus assures us that, although the timing might not be the timing we were expecting, prayers will be answered, doors will be opened, and we will receive the things that we ask for. Jesus wants you to know that if you seek with all your heart, you will receive, you will find.

Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you.
-- Matthew 7:7

The answer will come!

God Is Waiting for You to Come Back

God wants to forgive you! Perhaps you're feeling separated and far from God, because you've done something wrong and your conscience weighs heavily on you.

Sin builds walls between us and God. Do you want to break these walls down and return to God's arms? The reality is that He is eager to forgive you. Thanks to Jesus' blood the path to forgiveness has been made simple!.. repent and confess your sin to God.

“Come now, let us settle the matter,”
says the Lord.
“Though your sins are like scarlet,
they shall be as white as snow;
though they are red as crimson,
they shall be like wool.
Isaiah 1:18

God is faithful and just. He will forgive you. Don't let pain or shame stop you from repenting. No matter how great your sin is, God is greater, and His love knows no bounds. His great love will cover your sins. He sent Jesus Christ to die for you on the cross; that's how immense His love for you is.

Don't reject God's love; don't delay in approaching Him to receive His forgiveness.

My sacrifice, O God, is a broken spirit;
a broken and contrite heart
you, God, will not despise.
Psalm 51:17

Do you feel sorry for your sins? Tell God! He won't reject you; quite the opposite. The heavenly Father waits for you with open arms. He desires to receive you as His child. Give Him your whole being today.

Word of the Day: Don't Be Discouraged, God Is On Your Side

Therefore we do not lose heart. Though outwardly we are wasting away, yet inwardly we are being renewed day by day.
2 Corinthians 4:16

Perhaps you are going through a difficult situation that is causing discouragement. But hold firm, because God renews you day by day, and the future glory will be so wonderful that it will make all your problems feel insignificant in proportion!

Praising and glorifying God every day also helps us shift our focus away from our problems and ourselves. Make God the target of your life and dedicate yourself to listening to His Word, which brings strength and sustenance daily. Seek Him with all your heart!

Only Jesus, with His sweet voice, can nourish your inner being with joy, hope, and peace.

9 The Lord is a refuge for the oppressed,
a stronghold in times of trouble.
10 Those who know your name trust in you,
for you, Lord, have never forsaken those who seek you.

Psalms 9:9-10

Those who find strength and encouragement in God, even while going through struggles, will find victory and comfort.

Step into this dimension of love, praise, and worship and see how much stronger and more enthusiastic you'll feel to continue. Don't give up, persevere, and surely you will reap the rewards!
