TREM Daily Devotional 29 April 2022 MESSAGE
Today, I want to encourage you to come boldly to the throne of grace and obtain mercy. God is your Father and you have His approval because of Jesus. And so, you can make bold demands and expect a response from heaven. That is what the finished work of Jesus has done for you, and me. Our text is the prayer Jesus prayed at the tomb of Lazarus who had been dead for four days. The situation was daunting, but Jesus wasn’t perturbed, He said “I thank You that You have heard Me.” That was a bold statement! He knew that Lazarus had no other choice but to come forth because the Father already heard His prayers.
When you know that your prayers are not to beg God, not to arm-twist Him, or to change His mind, it changes the way you pray. That is why praying scriptures are vitally important because, in praying scriptures, you are taking God’s Word back to Him. The Bible says the barren shall keep house and be joyful mothers of children. The Word God says that you are the head and not the tail. The Word says no weapon formed against you shall prosper. The Word says I will bless your bread and your water and take away sickness from your midst.
The Word says if you lack wisdom ask of God and He will give it to you freely. In prayers, get into the scriptures and take God’s word back to Him and watch Him flex His muscles on your behalf. The scriptures give you a holy audacity in prayers.
I believe God with you that this season will not pass you by. Your ground will produce, and the earth will yield a great harvest for you. In whatever area the enemy is raising his ugly head against you, today I present the blood that was shed to condemn him to eternal defeat. And I command the enemy to loose his hold over your life.
