Daily devotional and Prayer for February 12. A Prayer of Faith. Prayer is the grace God has bestowed upon man to communicate and fellowship with Him. Effectiveness in prayer will depend on our faith.
Bible Verse
Therefore I say to you, whatever things you ask when you pray, believe that you receive them, and you will have them. ( Mark 11:24)
The scripture doesn’t tell us precisely what we should be praying for. Instead, we are told that we will receive whatever we ask God for as long as we pray according to His will and have faith in God.
This scripture is enough to give someone rest in the Lord. There will be no room for anxiety or worries.
The scripture says in the book of Psalms that the Lord God is a sun and shield, He gives grace and glory and no good thing will He withhold for those who walk uprightly. (Psalms 84: 11)
Therefore, it is God’s desire to give us everything we ask of Him.
That is why when Jesus Christ was teaching His disciples, He told them like this:
“So I say to you, ask, and it will be given to you; seek, and you will find; knock, and it will be opened to you. For everyone who asks receives, and he who seeks finds, and to him who knocks it will be opened.” ( Luke 11:9-10).

Now, to the side of God, the scriptures are so clear that God is willing to answer our prayers and give us what we need, and for that, we don’t have any doubt about it.
But now, to please God in our prayers, we must pray in faith. Without faith, it is impossible to please God, for he who comes to God must believe that He is and that He is a rewarder of those who diligently seek Him. ( Hebrews 11:6).
