Monday was my Bible study group’s last meeting for the semester and in our meeting we all take turns to praise and pray after our Bible study discussion. While the other ladies were praying I saw this vision in my mind that I’d like to share with you. Please read my vision and ponder it.

In my vision, I saw that we were like the security guards of our homes and workplaces. As we were praying, I saw us locking up the doors so that evil intruders and evildoers could not enter our homes and workplaces that we occupy. Some of us were confident security guards because of our belief in prayers. Some of us looked anxious and scared and were not very confident guards; but we all still received the same outcome of good security for our homes and workplaces because we showed up to pray. We all achieve the same goal of securing our homes and workplaces when we pray.

The Holy Spirit gently challenged me to be the security guard who has more confidence and faith in my prayer work. Whenever I am available, I always show up to pray daily and corporately but I admit that I need much more help with my confidence and belief in prayers. Nevertheless, I felt the Holy Spirit’s assurance and encouragement that Jesus sees our faithfulness, availability and teachability. Jesus Christ is a rewarder of our faith and work.

Psalm 27 also came into my mind during this time of my vision. I pray that it will bless and encourage you as you meditate on God’s word and promises for you, your family and workplaces. – https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Psalm+27&version=NKJV

I also am thinking about Psalm 127 as I am writing this vision. May it strengthen your heart too. – https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Psalm+127&version=ESV

Here is a nice short blog about the power of prayer. https://liquidchurch.com/blogs/the-power-of-prayer

Good quotes and stories about prayer:

When Mother Teresa was alive, many who visited her and her Missionaries of Charity in Calcutta were surprised that every lunchtime they left their life-sustaining work in dispensaries and in the home for the dying.

“Why do you go back so soon and not stay longer? Where do you go?”

Mother Teresa responded, “We go to pray. We have learned that to work without prayer is to achieve only what is humanly possible and our desire is to be involved in divine possibilities.”

The Paycheck is Really Good—So Show Up

“Prayer was never intended to be our last resort. It was always intended to be our first line of defense. It is a powerful tool that grants us access to the Creator of the Universe, who loves us very much and cares about our well-being.” https://www2.cbn.com/devotions/persistent-powerful-prayer

“The wonderful thing about praying is that you leave a world of not being able to do something, and enter God’s realm where everything is possible. He specializes in the impossible. Nothing is too great for His Almighty power, nothing is too small for His love.” – Corrie Ten Boom

I just learned that it is Billy Graham’s 50th anniversary to his first visit to South Korea 🇰🇷. This news link has the old video clip if you’d like to see it. It was very inspiring! https://www2.cbn.com/news/cwn/franklin-graham-brings-gospel-south-korea-50-years-after-father-preached-3-million
