Our Name In Prayer

God has no limits.  His love conquers all things.  He notices when even a sparrow falls so how much more us when the hairs on our heads are numbered.

He has heavenly reasons for each blessing and each hurdle.  When blessings flow and things all work out it’s easy to give praise.  God’s handiwork is displayed in a mighty way.  Other times when things are one obstacle after another we seek the lily of the valley.  Jesus is the light that shines in the darkness to bring joy in all things. 

Sometimes when the hurdles are many and the goal is nowhere in sight it is peaceful to know someone stands with us in prayer.  Jesus said where two or more are gathered in My name I am in their midst.  It’s hard to understand sometimes how a person could know enough to say an effective prayer.  God knows all things and all reasons.  A prayer warrior doesn’t have to know all the fine details or even the petition.  Just our name called out to our Lord in prayer by a sincere person is to agree with Almighty God for His perfect answer.  It is to acknowledge God as the One who knows all because He is all.  When our name is called out, that warrior stands with God in favor of our unspoken requests. 

It’s interesting to ponder sometimes that if a person does not know the full situation can they ask God’s favor into a human type solution.  To not know a situation or how to pray is never an excuse to overlook a person in prayer.  Prayer is the best thing one person can do for another.

Psalm 139:14-16

Thank you for making me so wonderfully complex!

    Your workmanship is marvelous—how well I know it.

You watched me as I was being formed in utter seclusion,

    as I was woven together in the dark of the womb.

You saw me before I was born.

    Every day of my life was recorded in your book.

Every moment was laid out

    before a single day had passed.
