I believe, as Christians, we all know the power of prayer uttered in all humility and in true faith. But do you personally know how powerful your prayers are? They flow out of your mouth and go out and find anybody that you want to pray for, wherever they are. It doesn’t matter who or where they are, God doesn’t even have to have their address. He already knows it.
Going by the times, it’s sad that we don’t pray more for others, because there are so many people we could pray for and help.
When you think about someone,you can send out a little prayer, just like a tracer. But a thought about someone or something is not a prayer, a thought is just like an employee who’s standing there waiting for a command, or an order. And if he just stands there and waits, he will never get anything done. A thought is only the beginning of a prayer. But just thinking about it is not going to work out. You have to put feet to your prayer and send it away.
There’s so much that you will never know that you didn’t establish because you didn’t pray.
When you think about someone that you love, or someone that you feel sorry for or that you know needs your help, it’s God by His Holy Spirit putting that thought in your mind.
Sending a prayer on is just like a telephone call! You are like a telephone exchange., and God sends the call. But it’s upto you to make connection to convey to the party that needs to receive it. But if you only think about them and you just cut it off, it’s like you are turning the phone off on God!
God’s trying to make a phone call and He gives you the number, and wants you to put it through. YOU ARE THE OPERATOR. God’s the One who’s calling but He tries to put it through you because He wants to show you what Love really is.
Love is making connection from God to somebody who needs your love. You’re the Operator. And if you don’t make the connection, if you are lazy, and slow and negligent and you don’t care and you don’t want to be bothered with these calls, so you don’t make the connection, then it’s a broken connection, and they will never get the message, they will never receive the love, and so there’s never any answer.
Isn’t it wonderful to be an operator? So much depends on you and your prayers, because there are a lot of people who are turned on, and who already want to receive…
When we fail and don’t make the connection, when we don’t flip the switch and don’t plug it in, it’s so sad! We have.a switch right in our mind, and all we have to do is flip it. The power comes from God.
It’s so sad when we don’t pray and we don’t flip the switch. God wants you to pray and He is calling, but there are some people who don’t even get the message, because of operators who don’t answer even God.
And there are others who love God and listening and getting the message, but then we are lazy and we are not concerned. We don’t flip the switch and send it on to the recipient!
And there are some people on the other end that,’even though they are connected, if they don’t pick the receive and answer, then they will never get the message.
And that’s just how simple it is! When God puts the thought in your mind about someone, that’s a message from God. He wants you to be the operator and put that call through by prayer.
That’s all you can do!
If you are willing to be an operator , you have to put in the plug and make the connection.
At the end of the Call, you’d have had done your part and rest assured to be rewarded with His blessings for being a dedicated and active Operator.
