Episode: 17002

INTRODUCTION - welcome to the Prayer and Faith Podcast where we get together each week to pray.   God is waiting to hear from his children and The Prayer and Faith podcast exists to help you - brother and sisters develop your prayer life as well as to bring us together in a prayer of agreement asking our Father to step into this world in the name of his Son and change things.  

FAITH BUILDER VERSE:

Mark 9:23

And Jesus said to him, “‘If you can’! All things are possible for one who believes.”

PRAYER FOCUS:   Thanksgiving

INTRODUCTION:  

1 Thessolonians 5:18 

give thanks in all circumstances; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you.

The Lord wants us to be thankful, to cultivate a thankful heart.  Think about it, when you are having a really bad day, and you start Thanking the Lord for his goodness - don’t you start to feel the heaviness lift.   

Some of you listening may be in a tough spot.  You may be thinking -What do I have to be thankful for.  We will give you some things to be thankful fo in this prayer time.

Do you have your health?  Are you saved and on your way to eternity with Christ instead of being on your way to hell.  Do you have enough food to eat or clean water to drink?  Think of those not as fortunate.  Most of the people who are listening to this are better off than the vast majority people in the world.  You have much to be thankful for, even if things appear bleak in the natural.  Think about the fact that God is your Father and he loves you and no matter the difficulty you are in - it will turn out well for you.  That is some good news.

TOPICS/VERSES:

1 Chronicles 16:34

Oh give thanks to the Lord, for he is good; for his steadfast love endures forever!

Love

Romans 5:8

but God shows his love for us in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us.

Salvation

John 3:16

For God so loved the world, that he gave his only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life.

Healing

1 Peter 2:24

He himself bore our sins in his body on the tree, that we might die to sin and live to righteousness. By his wounds you have been healed.

Provision

Matthew 6:25-33

25 “Therefore I tell you, do not be anxious about your life, what you will eat or what you will drink, nor about your body, what you will put on. Is not life more than food, and the body more than clothing? 26 Look at the birds of the air: they neither sow nor reap nor gather into barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not of more value than they? 27 And which of you by being anxious can add a single hour to his span of life?[g] 28 And why are you anxious about clothing? Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow: they neither toil nor spin, 29 yet I tell you, even Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these. 30 But if God so clothes the grass of the field, which today is alive and tomorrow is thrown into the oven, will he not much more clothe you, O you of little faith? 31 Therefore do not be anxious, saying, ‘What shall we eat?’ or ‘What shall we drink?’ or ‘What shall we wear?’ 32 For the Gentiles seek after all these things, and your heavenly Father knows that you need them all. 33 But seek first the kingdom of God and his righteousness, and all these things will be added to you.
