Verse of the
Week: Ask, and it will be given
to you; seek, and you will find; knock, and it will be opened to you. For everyone
who asks receives, and he who seeks finds, and to him who knocks it will be
opened. Matthew 7:7-8 (NASB)

The
earth has circled the sun thousands of times since the day Honi drew his circle
in the sand, but God is still looking for circle makers. And the timeless truth
secreted within this ancient legend is as true now as it was then: bold prayers honor God and God honors bold prayers.
God isn’t offended by our biggest dreams or our boldest prayers. He is offended
by anything less.
If
your prayers aren’t impossible to you, they are insulting to God. Why? Because they
don’t require divine intervention. But ask God to part the Red Sea or make the
sun stand still or float an iron ax-head, and God is moved to omnipotent
action.
There
is nothing God loves more than keeping promises, answering prayers, performing
miracles, and fulfilling dreams. That is who
He is. That is what He does. And the
bigger the circle we draw, the better, because God gets more glory.
Who you become is determined by how you pray. Ultimately, the
transcript of your prayers becomes the script of your life.
Enjoy
and have a blessed week!
Take delight in the Lord and
He will give you the desires of your heart. Psalm 37:4 (NIV)
