Today, Michael challenged us to pray BOLD prayers. I haven't really ever thought about being bold in prayer. We have to ask God for the big things. In Joshua 10, Joshua prayed for the sun to stop so that he and his army could defeat the Amorites. That's a seriously crazy prayer.
Think about it...he asked for the sun to stop. That means God added hours to the day. God gave Joshua extra hours into the day so that he could defeat this army with five kings that he was up against. I love that one of the verses says that God listened to man. God is waiting on us to ask him to do something amazing in our lives.
So be bold. Go and pray for something so unattainable that the only way to gain it is for God to do it. He's waiting to something amazing in all of our lives. We just have to ask.
About Me
- Nikki
- I live with my mom and two sisters, but that's about to change. I'm deciding which college to transfer to. I almost always have something sarcastic to say, and yes-it has gotten me into trouble. I have a relationship with Jesus that I continue to work at daily. Some days are easier than others, but He never promised it would be easy. I love music. I listen to a little bit of everything...excpet for bluegrass. I'll never understand how people listen to it without their ears bleeding. I hope that I am the kind of person people rely on- I like to think that I am. My biggest goal in life has recently changed. Although I still want to have kids, have a successful mariage and carreer, my greatest goal in life is to have people describe me as a person of integrity- to be known as the exact same person to everyone, to not have a different mask for different people. I absolutely love to laugh. I think it's one of the greatest tools God ever gave us. I really don't think that it's possible to be in a bad mood when people are laughing.
