"We give thanks to God always for all of you, making mention of you in our prayers". (1 Thessalonians 1:2) Do you give thanks to God for those He has placed in your life, even though that person may not be a real joy to deal with? Do you pray for someone without knowing why you are praying for them, only to find out that, they were in dire need of prayer and intercession? God places people on our hearts so we may stand in the gap, in prayer for even the unknown things. many times I have prayed for someone, only to find out, they really needed it. Never discard an impression from God as your thought and not His. After all, the more we pray, the more we stand before His Throne and the more we get to know Him and His love. So know for sure, that someone on this list, or someone across the globe, myself, is in prayer for you at any given moment when God places you on a praying heart.
Lord God, thank You for the love and compassion You have for me, and may I show that love and compassion to others. Thank You for the gift of prayer and especially for the times You place someone on my heart to pray for. Thank You for those who pray for me, sometimes inadvertently, not knowing why, yet continue to lift my needs and concerns to You. Bless each one here today, meet their needs and provide for their comfort. This is my prayer in Jesus name, amen.
Have a great day.
