How Fast?
How fast should things happen when we pray? That is a question many of us have pondered I am sure. I know I have. Yet, we continue to work on this and ask the Father about it. The one scripture that comes to mind for me when I think on this topic is found in Mark.
Mark 11:21 And Peter calling to remembrance saith unto him, Master, behold, the fig tree which thou cursedst is withered away.
22 And Jesus answering saith unto them, Have faith in God.
23 For verily I say unto you, That whosoever shall say unto this mountain, Be thou removed, and be thou cast into the sea; and shall not doubt in his heart, but shall believe that those things which he saith shall come to pass; he shall have whatsoever he saith.
24 Therefore I say unto you, What things soever ye desire, when ye pray, believe that ye receive them, and ye shall have them.
We can have what we say and what we pray for in faith. We have to believe we receive them when we pray, and we will have them. That can be a challenge when there is a human deadline that needs to be met. But if we believe, it will come to pass. It can be a challenge at times, but we can meet that challenge head on if we allow ourselves to do so. We meet it by repeating scriptures to ourselves, defeating the enemy in our heads telling us lies.
Colossians 3:16 Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom; teaching and admonishing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your hearts to the Lord.
17 And whatsoever ye do in word or deed, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God and the Father by him.
Today, let us spend time praying and believing, and we shall have what we pray and say.
Prayer
Father, we exalt You. You are our King! Let Your kingdom reign here through us. We praise Your holy name, Yahuah! Send us now Your overwhelming provision. Forgive us our sins. Heal us and deliver us. Restore unto Your people one hundred times one hundredfold. We ask these things iin the name of our Messiah Yeshuah (Jesus). Amen.
