The Power
of Prayer
“This is the confidence we have in
approaching God; that if we ask anything according to His will, He hears us. And
if we know that He hears us – whatever we ask – we know that we have what we
asked of Him.”
1John5;v 14 & 15
The emphasis here is on God’s will not ours. When we communicate with God we
don’t demand what we want; rather we discuss with Him what He wants for us. If
we align our prayers to His will He will listen; & we can be certain that if
He listens, He will give us a definite answer. So we can pray with confidence.
As you pray for the people of Tranmere each day ask that they may be given
hearts that are open & receptive to the good news of salvation through our
Lord Jesus Christ.
