God Hears

God hears our conversations. The Lord said, “When you ‘multiplied your words against me; I heard it (Ezekiel 35:13).'”

God hears our prayers. “O Lord,  you hear my voice (from Psalm 5:3).”

Speak and pray respectfully.

God Does Good

“I will do more good to you than ever before. Then you will know that I am the Lord (Ezekiel 36:11).”

Say thank you.

God Gives Life

Dry bones came to life and became an exceedingly great army when God gave them breath (See Ezekiel 37:1-10). This story is a powerful picture of what God does.

Keep praying for those who need life. Jesus came “that they may have life and have it abundantly (John 10:10).”

One Person’s Prayers Can Change Everything

God was justifiably angry with his people. “He said he would destroy them—had not Moses, his chosen one, stood in the breach before him, to turn away his wrath from destroying them (Psalm 106:23).”

Another time God said, “I sought for a man among them who should build up the wall and stand in the breach before me for the land, that I should not destroy it, but I found none (Ezekiel 22:30).”

Be the one to stand in the breach and pray.

 

Remember God’s Answers

This year, take time to remember and record the ways God has answered your prayers.

Then tell your children and their children, so they learn to fear God all the days they live on earth.

P.S. Happy New Year!

Jesus is Lord

One day every tongue will confess that Jesus Christ is Lord (Philippians 2:11).

Until that day, God patiently, relentlessly does what He must, so “they will know that I am the Lord (Ezekiel 25:17).”

Pray believing.

Merry Christmas!

This Christmas, you might be surrounded by family and piles of presents, or you might be alone.

Whatever your situation, salvation is a gift that can be yours. Jesus came to save his people from their sins (Matthew 1:21).

It is by grace you have been saved, through faith—and this not from yourselves it is the gift of God (Ephesians 2:8).”
