The Lord Has Heard My Cry For Mercy ( Psalm:6 )

The Lord Accepts My Prayer,

Scripture really outlines our need to believe and trust in
our Lord. So when we pray, we really need to have
faith. God might not always respond exactly the way we
want Him to answer, but he always answers the way He
needs to answer. In all things we need to glorify Him, and
give praise. He speaks to us in silence and yet if we are
in His presence we hear Him clearly. All through Psalms
almost, people are feeling He didn't hear them, that He
has abandoned them and left them on their own. Yet the
Lord says clearly "I will never forget you My People. I
have carved you in the palm of my hand." So while we
might feel that He is everywhere else but not in us, we need
to really listen. Not with our ears but with our hearts and
in the Spirit. Holy is the Lord as we surrender to His power
and might.

Wonderfully Odd, I just heard a magnificent sermon on this topic...faith and the manifestation/appropriation of that faith to work in our lives. I had no one to teach it to, so I came here to leave a word of hope or truth...however it works for the recipient. In WWII, in Britain, Derek Prince, a member of, I believe, the British army, was stricken by a rare skin disease. (No relation to Joseph Prince.) He spent a year in the hospital expecting to die. He considered often the healing words and actions of Jesus Christ and opened the bible and started to underline in blue the scripture pertaining to physical healing, from Genesis to Revelations. At the end, he found he had a 'blue' bible. At that time, it was believed by many that God was primarily concerned with spiritual healing and not so much physical. Derek saw this was in error and proved it for himself. He checked himself out on his own recognizance, AMA, and went back to work with the army. He was sent to Sudan and worked as a nurse orderly. In prayer and meditation, he was instructed of God to 'take his own medicine'. As was the custom then, three pills a day with food...usually at mealtimes. So, at each meal, he opened the word and read and throughout the day, meditated on what he'd read.

In one year, he was completely healed. "Faith comes by hearing and hearing by the word of God." It's ok to not have faith to receive the healing. The key is FAITH itself. Meditation and speaking the word aloud; meditaion to allow the word to manifest itself in our spirit and allow the Holy SPirit to work it out in us, creates the 'soil' needed for growth of faith and the healing of spiritual - casting out of demons, etc... as well as the physical ---

It was a wonderful word. I'm thankful God led me here to share. God bless!
