Here's a message that will bring you chills. Have you ever felt the
urge to pray for someone and then just put it on a list and said,
"I'll pray for them later?" Or has anyone ever called you and said,
"I need you to pray for me, I have this need?" Read the following
story that was sent to me and may it change the way that you may
think about prayer and also the way you pray. You will be blessed
by this.
A missionary on furlough told this true story while visiting his
home church in Michigan . "While serving at a small field hospital in
Africa , every two weeks I travelled by bicycle through the jungle to
a nearby city for supplies. This was a journey of two days and
required camping overnight at the halfway point. On one
of these
journeys, I arrived in the city where I planned to collect money
from a bank, purchase medicine, and supplies, and then begin my
two-day journey back to the field hospital.
Upon arrival in the city, I observed two men fighting, one of whom
had been seriously injured. I treated him for his injuries and at
the same time talked to him about the Lord. I then travelled two
days, camping overnight, and arrived home without incident... Two
weeks later I repeated my journey.Upon arriving in the city, I was
approached by the young man I had treated. He told me that he had
known I carried money and medicines. He said, "Some friends and I
followed you into the jungle, knowing you would camp overnight. We
planned to kill you and take your money and drugs. But just as we
were about to move into your camp, we saw that you were surrounded
by 26 armed
guards." At this, I laughed and said that I was
certainly all alone in that jungle campsite. The young man pressed
the point, however, and said, "No, sir, I was not the only person
to see the guards, my friends also saw them, and we all counted
them. It was because of those guards that we were afraid and left
you alone."
At this point in the sermon, one of the men in the congregation
jumped to his feet and interrupted the missionary and asked if he
could tell him the exact day this happened. The missionary told the
congregation the date, and the man who interrupted told him this
story:
"On the night of your incident in Africa , it was morning here and I
was preparing to go play golf. I was about to putt when I felt
the urge to pray for you. In fact, the urging of the Lord was so
strong, I called men in this
church to meet with me here in the
sanctuary to pray for you. Would all of those men who met with me on
that day stand up?" The men who had met together to pray that day
stood up. The missionary wasn't concerned with who they were, he
was too busy counting how many men he saw.
There were 26!
This story is an incredible example of how the Spirit of the Lord
moves in mysterious ways. If you ever hear such prodding, go along
with it. Nothing is ever hurt by prayer except the gates of hell.
I encourage you to forward this to as many people as you know. If
we all take it to heart, we can turn this world toward God once
again. As the above true story clearly illustrates, "with God all
things are possible". More importantly, how God hears and answers
the prayers of the faithful.
After you read this, please
pass it on and give God thanks for the
beautiful gift of your faith, for the powerful gift of prayer, and
for the many miracles He works in your own daily life... and then
pass it on. Who says God does not work in mysterious ways
I asked the Lord to bless you as I prayed for you today. To guide
you and protect you as you go along your way. His love is always
with you, His promises are true, and when we give Him our cares you
know He will see us through. So when the road you're traveling on
seems difficult at best, Just remember I'm here praying, and God
will do the rest. Pass this on to those whom you want God to
bless. | | |
