Your Prayer

It seems we get everything from God by prayers
Isaiah gave King Hezekiah a prophetic word 
…Set your house in order for you will die...
The king turned to the wall and prayed
Before Isaiah reached the gate
He was asked to go back
God has heard the prayers
And also answered beyond the kings request
 
It can be quiet frustrating for a prophet
Whose word is supposed to be from God
And therefore infallible and unshaken
But prayers can change any situation
 
So he turned back and relayed the message
…you will not die; you will live and also…
Fifteen years has been added to you.
What if the king kept quiet and didn’t pray...
 
Why will you accept an unpleasant situation?
Why not turn to your wall and pray
Do as king Hezekiah did
Cry out for change and more
 
The Lord will hear and answer
After all he asked us to call
Why will you not take him at his word?
Why do you continue in unpleasantness?
 
Prayer changes things
As exemplified in the above story
He did not accept a negative prophecy
Even when it was coming from God the Highest
 
Whose report do you have before you?
Have faith; it need not be permanent
Is there any sorrow in your life?
Why not change it in prayers

It takes a lot to pray
But it pays with joy in the answers
Sowing seeds can be hard
But reaping the harvest is glorious
 
then he turned his face toward the wall, and prayed saying 2 Kings 20:2
return and tell Hezekiah  the leader of my people , thus says the Lord the God of David your Father. I have heard your prayer, i have seen your tears, surely i will heal you...2 Kings 20:5

More than enough...

I am sufficient in Christ’s sufficiency Esther the orphan was sufficient to be a Queen Joseph the prisoner; was enough to be Prime Minister ...
