I
Said a Prayer For You Today
I said a prayer for you today
And know God must have heard-
I felt the answer in my heart
Although He spoke no word.
I didn't ask for wealth or fame,
I knew you wouldn't mind.
I asked Him to send treasures
Of a far more lasting kind.
I asked that He'd be near you
At the start of each new day.
To grant you health and blessings
And friends to share your way.
I asked for happiness for you
In all things great and small.
But it was for His loving care
I prayed the most of all.
If you’re dealing with an infirmity, you may not know the reasons why until it’s over. But you can be sure that God will work everything for your good (Romans 8:28).
And he called to him his twelve disciples and gave them authority over unclean spirits, to cast them out, and to heal every disease and every affliction. Matthew 10:1 ESV
Jesus gave authority to His disciples to heal. We are His disciples. That goes for you and me, too! It’s not just for them back then. Why do we want to pick and choose parts of Scriptural truth? Jesus is the same (Hebrews 13:8). Why would He give healing to only part of His people? Why would He give authority to His people for only part of history? He doesn’t because He doesn’t change!
James 5:14 Is anyone among you sick? He should call for the elders of the church, and they are to pray over him, anointing him with oil in the name of the Lord.
James 5:15 The prayer of faith will save the sick person, and the Lord will raise him up; if he has committed sins, he will be forgiven.
God’s healing power is for YOU for whatever type of healing you need: physical, emotional, and spiritual.
Psalms 91:9 Because you have made the LORD—my refuge, the Most High—your dwelling place,
Psalms 91:10 no harm will come to Glen;
no plague will come near Glen's tent.
Psalms 91:11 For he will give his angels orders concerning Glen, to protect Glen in
all Glen's ways.
Psalms 91:12 They will support Glen with their hands so that Glen will not strike
Glen's foot against a stone.
Psalms 91:13 You will tread on the lion and the cobra; you will trample the young lion
and the serpent.
Psalms 91:14 Because Glen has his heart set on me, I will deliver Glen; I will protect Glen because Glen knows my name.
In Christ,
Glen
The theme of Psalm 91 focuses a spotlight on absolute trust in God and loyalty to Him.
If you make the LORD your refuge, if you make the Most High your shelter, no evil will conquer you; no plague will come near your home. For he will order his angels to protect you wherever you go. They will hold you up with their hands so you won’t even hurt your foot on a stone. You will trample upon lions and cobras; you will crush fierce lions and serpents under your feet! The LORD says,
‘I will rescue those who love me. I will
protect those who trust in my name’”
Psalm 91:9–14. Abiding in God’s presence, we find security, protection, and care. The ultimate victory is ours in Christ.
In the old American West, before the days of credit cards, a shopkeeper would maintain a ledger book recording the activities of each customer’s account and the amount owed. The business owner knew his customers well and the work in which they were involved. A customer would at times send others to the shop for him to make purchases and bring back materials needed for his home or business. Those sent in the customer’s stead (e.g., his children) would be able to receive the goods “in the name of” the account owner. But, if they tried to purchase things not in line with what the shopkeeper knew the customer needed or wanted, the purchase would be denied.
