Faith Matters Sis. Stella Dhinakaran
If you believe, you will receive whatever you ask for in prayer. (Matthew 21:22)
The greatest assurance we have in this world is to know that God is with us. He goes before us and surrounds us with His presence and protection (Isaiah 52:12). The Bible clearly says, “The Lord Himself goes before you and will be with you; He will never leave you nor forsake you. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged” (Deuteronomy 31:8). Therefore, with this belief you can seek God in prayer for the desired miracle. Yes, “If you believe, you will receive whatever you ask for in prayer” (Matthew 21:22). You will be signs and wonders in God’s plan.
Several years back, a couple from overseas had come for treatment to India. They heard about our meeting, which is to be held in a different place and travelled that long distance just to attend this meeting and receive the miracle. Look at the amount of faith they had. The wife had cancer. She was battling for life. My husband Bro. Dhinakaran and I met them and prayed for her. Next evening, when we went to the meeting we were amazed to see her and her husband standing on the stage and sharing the testimony. The previous night, after we had prayed for them and retired to our room, that sister could not sleep and was suffering much in pain. Her husband, who was awake until late night, had slept off. That time, a person with a very bright countenance and wearing a white robe had entered into their room, placed His hands on her, and said, “Daughter, don’t worry! You will be healed from your disease after which you should start glorifying Me” and disappeared! That’s all! After that, she fell asleep like a baby. Yes, she saw the Lord Jesus in person and was miraculously healed because of His touch. They were sharing this miracle before the multitude of people who had gathered there. What an amazing testimony!
God Himself will descend on you amidst your agony to soothe you. So, leave every care and concern in the hands of the One who loves you more than anyone. Beloved, are you frustrated waiting for a long time in prayer for God’s healing, salvation and financial blessing? Are you praying for your child to have an encounter with the Lord? Your hope in the Lord will not go in vain. He will certainly answer you and make you happy. Cling on to the promise; “Therefore I tell you, whatever you ask for in prayer, believe that you have received it, and it will be yours” (Mark 11:24) and be fully rewarded. Your sorrow will turn into joy (John 16:20).
Prayer:
Dear Father in heaven,
I come to You in Jesus’ name for my every need. I am pressed down by different needs each day. Lord, today, I bring every pestering problem to You. You are my strength in weakness. Let Your wisdom, salvation and righteousness fill me. My answer is in You alone. I wait for a miracle to happen. Do wondrous things in my life. Lift me above every shame and glorify Your Name. I ask this prayer with hope and belief. Accept it oh Lord and bless me, Amen.
