Keep On Praying

Family Time Ep 126

Angus Buchan

Elijah was just a normal person just like you and me. But the thing that made him different was that he prayed and never gave up!

James 5 says, "Is anyone among you suffering? Let him pray. Is anyone cheerful? Let him sing psalms. Is anyone among you sick? Let him call for the elders of the church, and let them pray over him, anointing him with oil in the name of the Lord. And the prayer of faith will save the sick, and the Lord will raise him up. And if he has committed sins, he will be forgiven. Confess your trespasses to one another, and pray for one another, that you may be healed. The effective, fervent prayer of a righteous man avails much. Elijah was a man with a nature like ours, and he prayed earnestly that it would not rain; and it did not rain on the land for three years and six months. And he prayed again, and the heaven gave rain, and the earth produced its fruit."

Holy Character

1 Peter 3:3

1 Peter 3:3. God tells us not to let our adornment to be merely outward but to spend more time on our inward appearance than our outward appearance. The beauty that the Lord is speaking about is from the inside, from a person who is selfless, and cares more about others, who has the Lord's peace in their hearts.

Forgiveness

Matthew 18:21–22

We have to forgive others no matter what, so that God can forgive us for our sins, and so that we ourselves can move on with our lives. Some of us even need to forgive God for something we fee that He has done for us. Unforgiveness will eat away at us. Matthew 18:21-22.

Guard your mind

2 Corinthians 10:4–5

2 Corinthians 10:4-5. Our battle in this world is in our minds, not our hearts. When we put on the armour of God, we put on the helmet of Salvation to guard our minds. Let's watch over and be sure to guard our minds and make sure we are speaking life.
