Mark 11:20~24

 

God created all things in the universe and they are living according to God‘s law (Hebrews 1:2~3). God created man to have and to rule over all of creation (Genesis 1:27~29). Man should give thanks to God for His amazing love and grace. But man didn't. Rather, he committed sin by challenging and disobeying God's and rebelling against his love and will. Because of sin man deserved to be sent to hell and to live there forever after he dies. "But God demonstrates His own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us." Romans 5:8. But God is love, He sent His one and only son Jesus Christ into this world to save us. Jesus Christ died on the cross to pay back our wages of sin, which led us to death. So we are free from all sin, curses and pain in hell (Romans 5:8, Hebrews 2:14~16). Jesus appeared in order to do away with sin once and for all. He sacrificed himself and became our eternal Savior (Hebrews 10:1~14). God made Jesus Christ to become the eternal meditator between God and man (1 Timothy 2:4~6). Since then, God has commanded us to pray about any impossibilities in Jesus' name. Therefore we have the right to pray about all our problems to God, our Father and to receive His answer and to be set free from all bondage. Then, the Son, Jesus Christ, may bring glory to the Father God (John 14:13-14, John 15:7). Prayer is the experience of receiving the answer, knowing God's promise, believing in Him and praying to Him (James 5:13-18). Prayer is the promise of our living Father God. The promise of the dead is ineffective, but God is an eternal living being. Therefore, His promise to answer stands forever (Mark 11:22-24). Prayer is the action to trust only God completely. He will solve the problems of those who pray with faith. And the Holy Spirit himself intercedes for the saints in accordance with God's will (Jude 20-21, Romans 8:26-27). Prayer is to trust only our Father God. It is to look forward to the answer which has already been fulfilled by God. This prayer is completely different to the prayer of pagans. They just pray with their own faith and belief to their own gods which never promised to help them. Jesus promised us. He is waiting for us to pray. He will answer us quickly according to His promise. When you pray to Him, you will receive the answer. Dear brothers and sisters, pray now! "Therefore I tell you, whatever you ask for in prayer, believe that you have received it, and it will be yours." Mark 11:24.
