Topic: When You Pray

Today’s Scripture
Revelation 8:4, NIV – The smoke of the incense, together with the prayers of God’s people, went up before God from the angel’s hand.

In the book of Revelation, the apostle John describes how the angels around the heavenly throne are constantly worshipping God, but he wrote in chapter 8 that there was silence in heaven for about half an hour. During that time an angel came to the altar with a golden censer that represents the prayers of God’s people. Notice how powerful prayer is. What could be so important that all of heaven came to a standstill? Heaven stopped to hear the prayers of God’s people. It makes a difference when you pray. Your prayers go up like incense before the throne of God.

It may feel like nobody’s listening to your prayers and prayer is a waste of time. No, just remember that when you pray something powerful happens. All of heaven stops, and the Creator of the universe comes to attention. That’s when supernatural things take place. When you pray, Red Seas part, Goliaths are defeated, hungry lions can’t open their mouths, cancer is overcome, and blessings rain down.

Prayer for Today
Father, thank You for this powerful vision of the worship and praise that surrounds Your throne at all times. Thank You that You are listening for my every prayer, and my prayers are like the smoke of incense before You. I believe that my prayers make a difference. In Jesus’ Name, Amen.
