Mornings with God Devotional 12 July 2022 Message
Happy is he who has friends who pray for him.
Paul earnestly beseeches his friends to pray for him. He felt constant need of remembrance in prayer. There is nothing our friends could do for us that would mean half so much to us as to speak our names to God.
A little boy, after family worship, conducted by a guest, in which the child’s name had been mentioned, said to his mother, “I am so glad Dr. Lyman told God my name. He’ll know me now when He sees me.”
There is great comfort in knowing that others pray for us. Then there is no way in which we can help others so wisely as by praying for them. We do not know what our friends need. Our way of trying to help them may do them more harm than good. We may relieve them of burdens or cares that God wanted them to keep and carry for a while, for their own good.
If, however, we ask God to help them by making them strong, He will do for them only that which is best.
