Power of Prayer

https://odb.org/MY/2022/02/10/his-amazing-help

Today’s ODB story is about God intervening with a Godsend snowfall up to a feet thick to slow and in some places stop the 2020 raging fire in Colorado, which by then had burned down to the ground 100,000 acres of forest and 300 houses. The fire was in the fall and the snow came early, thus Godsend – after hundreds of thousands or even millions of prayers were lifted to God for help.

It proves that prayers can move the hand of God as we can see how God had previously intervened in times of famine like how He brought rain down after Elijah prayed when he challenged the prophets of Baal. Or we see how Jesus, being the son of God and part of the Holy Trinity of God, stopped the storm in the middle of the Sea of Galilee or how Jesus was moved by compassion to heal the sick and to feed the multitudes.

We were disappointed that despite our ardent prayers, we didn’t see the then all powerful political regime fall in 2008 or 2013. However, they eventually fell in 2018 and now are making a comeback after a betrayal in 2000. Will our continued prayers help? Yes, I believe so! If we continue to pray, I believe that God can intervene and one day enable a just and upright regime be established in our country that will drive our country successfully into the next century, ushering a new era for our children and future generations. An era where everyone will put in their fair share of effort and hardwork into the nation and be commensurately rewarded and recognised.

Pray as much as we can in our quiet time. Pray for the nation, for our city, our community, our church, our family and our cell group. Pray for our loved ones. Fill heaven with our prayers. Prayer can move the hand of God. The Lord our God is compassionate. He loves us. He can and will intervene when necessary as seen in the 2020 Colorado fire. Pray that His will be done here on earth as it is in heaven. Amen
