Happy June ladies!
We are at the midpoint of the year! Thank God for sparing our lives to make it this far! We know that prayer is the way that we communicate with God and we know that prayer changes things! Mark 11:24 (NIV) says, "Therefore I tell you, whatever you ask for in prayer, believe that you have received it, and it will be yours." So there are a few things the spirit has laid on my heart that I think we should pray on this month!
1) Pray against the spirit of jealousy and envy. Lately there has been so many of my friends and colleagues getting engaged and married and here I am still single, and waiting and sometimes you may envy their relationships. Remember that it will happen in God's time and not ours! Solomon said in Proverbs 14:30 (KJV), "A tranquil heart gives life to the flesh, but envy makes the bones rot." So let's preserve our bones and be happy for our friends and colleagues as they embark on important journeys knowing that God has the plan of our lives in His hand!
2) Pray for the spirit of love! To love everyone with God's love! 1 Peter 4:8 (NIV) says, "Above all, love each other deeply, because love covers over a multitude of sins." Also Apostle John encourages us in 1 John 4:7-8 (NIV), "Dear friends, let us love one another, for love comes from God. Everyone who loves has been born of God and knows God. Whoever does not love does not know God, because God is love."
3) Pray for unity in the body of Christ. I have been noticing a lot of division and this is not of God. Paul encourages us in 1 Corinthians 1:10 (NIV), "I appeal to you, brothers, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that all of you agree with one another so that there may be no divisions among you and that you may be perfectly united in mind and thought." We are all trying to get to the same place, heaven. So let's not bring our brothers and sisters down, but lift them up and encourage them!
Let's continue to pray because Christ is coming soon!
Love you all,
Raven
