WALL OF FIRE

WALL OF FIRE Zachariah 2:1-5  “For I,' says the LORD, 'will be a wall of fire all around her, and I will be the glory in her midst” (V.5) NKJV      One of the troubles that brings fear into the hearts of people today is insecurity. Most people in this part of the world always feel insecure. And when you look at the situations and experiences that surround us, they often want to make us feel insecure. This causes many to live their lives in fear in the day and at night.

PRAYING WITH A VOW

PRAYING WITH A VOW  

1 SAMUEL 1:8-12
DEVOTIONAL “Then she made a vow and said, "O LORD of hosts, if You will indeed look on the affliction of Your maidservant and remember me, and not forget Your maidservant, but will give Your maidservant a male child, then I will give him to the LORD all the days of his life, and no razor shall come upon his head” (Vs. 11).

   Praying with a vow is a catalyst to our prayers being answered. This is because, God has needs as much as we have needs. God is in need of men and women who will help Him to carry out His plan on earth (John 4:23). He needs people who will allow Him to use them to touch other people’s lives so as to perfect His will (Ezekiel 22:30).
   When Hannah prayed in her time, she could discover one of the needs of Israel and made a vow. No one trained his or her child to serve the Lord faithfully. At that time, people indoctrinated their children to take to other professions so that they can become rich, but Hannah made a vow to release her son to serve the Lord and she fulfilled it. There was no king or ruler in the land at that time, yet God answered her prayers.

   Friend, when you place a need before the Lord in prayers, try to know the needs of the house of God or of the servant of the Lord and strive to meet them. Be careful about making empty promises because God hates that. When you have it in heart (to meet such needs), heaven will approve your prayers so that the needs of God might be met through you. Learn to be as prompt as Hannah was in making and fulfilling her vow. As you do this, your prayers will be answered. Peace!

Prayer: Lord, help me to be mindful of your needs

“WHEN YOU MEET THE NEEDS OF GOD, HE WILL MEET YOUR NEEDS”.
