I woke up at 3:00 AM this morning and I started praying. Then I realized I want what God wants. I’ve been hoping and praying God will say yes to many of my prayers. It was such a blessing when I realized that I am praying for what God wants. God wants what I want.
God wants people to be saved. He wants them to repent and turn to Him. He wants people to love one another. He wants people to not be bigots or hate others that are not like them. He wants peace in Israel. He wants peace in the world. He wants people to be healed by His stripes and know they are healed. He wants joy for all people. He wants to bless those people that I am praying for. He wants people to hear, see, and follow Jesus.
God is working on my prayers. Praise God that he puts His desires in our hearts and we have the blessing to want what God wants and pray for what God holds dear. The desires in our hearts and what we are praying for testifies that we are children of God.
I am a child of God and I want and pray for what God wants! I am blessed for it!
“and they rest not day and night, saying, Holy, holy, holy, Lord God Almighty, which was, and is, and is to come.” Revelation 4:8b
Lord God Almighty, please encourage my sisters and brothers in Christ Jesus. Remind them today that You hear their prayers. Remind them how dearly they are loved by You. I pray in Jesus’ name that we will all rejoice today that we are the Children of God! Amen.
“And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose.” Romans 8:28
