PRAYER FOR TODAY - March 18, 2015 (Casting Down Doubt and Fear and Believing That You Receive When You Pray)

You keep wondering what is wrong with your prayer.   You keep praying and you keep asking God why isn't He answering.   You look around and it seems as though everyone else is receiving answers to their prayers and yet you are still waiting on God's response to yours.  Have faith.   Trust God and His Word.   His Word tells us to abide in Him and to allow His Word to abide in us.   His Word says that it is by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving that we are to let our requests be known to Him.    His Word says that we have to believe that we receive when we pray.   This is God's Word to us and for us and we have to believe, trust, and obey His Word and know that He is at work in our situation and trust where He said that He is working it all together for our good.

John 15:7 - If ye abide in me, and my words abide in you, ye shall ask what ye will, and it shall be done unto you.
Philippians 4:6 - Be careful for nothing; but in every thing by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God.
Mark 11:24 - Therefore I say unto you, What things soever ye desire, when ye pray, believe that ye receive [them], and ye shall have [them].

"Father thank You for Your clear direction.   For You have told us to abide in You.  So right now Father we vow to stand by and stick to Your Word.   Father You said to be careful for nothing.  One definition for careful is anxious.  So right now we make up in our mind that we will not be anxious.  We will stand still and wait in peace for Your clear direction and answer to our prayers.    Father You have promised that if we believe when we pray that we shall receive.  So right now Father we cast down all doubt and fear and we walk in total belief.   Believing that You are God alone and that You are allow powerful and can do all things.  Thank You Father for Your unchanging love and for honoring Your promises in our lives in Jesus name.  Amen"
