"The Bible And Prayer''

Most people don't realize how often the Bible features the remarkable power of prayer.Yet,with over 850 separate references to this magnificent subject,the Bible includes astounding stories of how prayer freed slaves,cured illness,restored loved ones,bestowed blessings,comforted the grieving and helped shape the course of human history.Perhaps more important are Biblical accounts of how prayer worked inwardly to open the eyes and hearts of men and women just like you and me,making our lives fuller and bringing us closer to God.Yet,some still ask does God answer prayer? The Bible,read one soon.

Show Some Real Love!

How many times would you say you've been in love? Our Lord Jesus Christ commanded His disciples to "love one another,"because "by this all will know that you are My disciples,if you have love for one another"(John C:v34 &v35).The love that our Lord wants His disciples to have for one another is different from the romantic kind displayed between loving couples and the brotherly kind shown between friends or family.It's an unselfish love.The Greek word John used in Jesus'command is agape--God's kind of love that expects nothing in return.That was what Jesus showed to His disciples "when He "poured water into a basin and begain to wash the disciples'feet"(v.5).That is the kind of love He showed for us when He went to the cross for us.So then bear one another's burdens ,and so fulfill the law of Christ.Galatians C:6.v2.

Why Do Men War?

At the core many disputes in a home,community,or the world,there is often at least one person who is not willing to accept a different idea,belief,tradition,or appearance.Yet there is something happening that has greater power,a power for good.One by one,throughout the world,you can fine people dedicated to being at peace in a world of diversity,a world of unique individuals created by God.To love and be loved by each other.There is a harvest of peace that is nourishing the world.James C-3:v18. Love somebody today in the name of Jesus,love.
