New Blog Post: ‘Having Faith In Christ’



Prayer

O my precious God this is why I pray for the heart and core of Your people because of their faith in Jesus Christ our precious Lord. I have not stopped giving things to God for you. I always remember you in my prayers, I ask God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the glorious Father, to give you a spirit of wisdom and revelation so that you will know Him better.
I also pray that you have a greater understanding in your hearts so you will know the hope to which He has called you and that you will know how rich and glorious are the blessings God has promised you His holy people.
And you will know that God’s power to us is very great for those who believe. That same power is the same as the great strength God used to raise Christ Jesus from the dead and He put Him at His right side in the heavenly world.
In the past you were spiritually dead because of our sins and the things we did against God. Yes, in the past we lived the way the world lives, following the ruler of the evil powers that are above the earth. That same spirit is now working in those who refuse to obey God.
In the past each one of us lived like them, trying to please our sinful selves and doing all the things our bodies and minds wanted. We should have suffered God’s anger because of the way we were. God in His great mercy showed us His grace and mercy because He loved us very much. He raised us up with Christ and gave us new life with Christ and we were saved by God’s grace.
He did this for those in Christ Jesus so all future time He could show the very great riches of His grace by being kind to us in Christ Jesus. We are saved through our faith in believing Jesus Christ is the Lord over our hearts, spirits, souls and bodies He is our strength forever and always. Amen
