00:01 Welcome back.
00:02 Here at the closing end of our program, 00:04 I wanted to ask Mollie and Brenda, 00:05 if you'd share a closing thought 00:06 or closing scripture with our friends at home. 00:08 Well, I would love too. 00:10 I want to just talk a minute about the importance 00:12 of being verbal when you pray. 00:14 We're going to look at 00:15 Mark 11:23 and 24, verse 22 says, 00:18 "Have faith in God." And this is Jesus speaking. 00:21 He goes on to say, "For assuredly, 00:23 I say to you what so, whosoever 00:26 says to this mountain says it, 00:28 not just thinks it, 00:29 be removed and be cast into the sea 00:32 and does not doubt in his heart. 00:34 But believes those things he says will be done, 00:37 he will have whatsoever he..." 00:40 And what's that word? "Whatsoever he says." 00:42 It's vitally important that you speak your prayers 00:46 that you're verbal, 00:47 and then receive the answer to the prayer of faith. 00:50 Amen. Brenda? 00:52 Well, I agree, Mollie, with you. 00:53 I have another text that supports that as well, 00:55 and that is 00:57 "And whatever things you ask in prayer, 00:59 believing, you will receive." 01:02 And so I think that the key is that we pray believing. 01:06 But another thing that I have people ask me about, 01:10 Mollie and Jill, is that they'll say, 01:12 "Well, I try to pray, but my mind just wanders. 01:14 I start thinking about all the things 01:15 I have to do the next day. 01:17 And, you know, I can't focus." 01:19 Well, if you're having trouble focusing in prayer, 01:20 I say pray out loud. 01:22 Because when you're praying out loud, 01:24 you are more focused. 01:26 And it's much harder to have the devil 01:28 make your mind wander. 01:29 So I would say pray out loud and pray believing. 01:33 Amen. 01:35 Thank you so much, Mollie and Brenda. 01:36 What a blessing to share this program together with you 01:39 because you're women of God, women of prayer. 01:41 And thank you for opening up your heart 01:43 and sharing with our family at home. 01:44 And we hope and pray that 01:46 it has been a blessing for you as well. 01:48 Know that the 3ABN family, the team here, 01:51 we pray for you on a daily basis. 01:53 Know that the Lord Jesus Christ loves you 01:56 and that He calls you to reach out 01:58 and pray for your brothers and sisters. 02:00 Bye-bye. |
