Carrying or Casting our Cares?

“And so be anxious for nothing,
But always, by prayer and supplication,
With thanksgiving, let your requests,
Be made known to God”…in faith, no hesitation.

How Big Are Our Prayers?

That multitudes, become disciples,
Make more disciples, disciple-making,
Keep raising up, and going forth,
Pray for each nation, to keep obeying.

Persistent Prayer

But if prayer, may seem ‘unanswered’,
Do keep trusting and obeying,
Keep persevering, till a ‘No’,
Still follow Jesus, be ever praying.

Casting Our Cares

Oft’ weighed down, with our worries;
Concerns, cares that we carry;
So, feel anxious, agitated;
Bearing burdens, we can’t bury.

Prevailing Prayer

Persistent prayer, persistent faith;
God’s precious promises, forever sure;
Receiving answers to our prayers;
Our God will open, heaven’s door.

Why Unanswered Prayer?

Know God answers our prayer
By His rules, not mine
So, be willing to wait on Him
His terms and schedule, divine.

Answered Prayer

All God states, He will do
All He promises, fulfills
Cannot lie, nor deceive
So, wait upon Him, be still.

Be Expectant in Prayer

Yet God invites us, to pray
Participate, in His plans
Bids us ask, seek and knock
To seek His will, not man’s.

Teach me to pray

LORD, teach me to pray
To wrestle in prayer
Persistent, prevailing
Your victories, declare.

Prayer

For You call me to partner
In Your image I’m made
To pray without ceasing
And see lives, remade.
