And the prayer of faith shall save the sick, and the Lord shall raise him up; and if he have committed sins, they shall be forgiven him. James 5:15
"Bear up the hands that hang down, by faith and prayer; support the tottering knees. Have you any days of fasting and prayer? Storm the throne of grace and persevere therein, and mercy will come down."
Author: Wesley, John
This prayer like the previous post was written when I was 13-14 years old. How I long for the child like faith lost at the setting sun of my childhood.
Here is the prayer from the archives of my childhood in my own words back then...
A Prayer of Faith
Lord, my God, I ask in Your name.
When You changed me I wasn't the same.
Your light filled my soul with glory divine.
That day I signed my soul to You.
You cleaned and rinsed it from unrighteousness.
You know what's best.
Our two generations are falling apart.
Jesus give them a kind, loving heart.
My Christian parents, Lord, let them lead me down the pathway that glows.
You are my mightiest friend.
Kids at school may hate me.
But, You are the One who died for me.
Be merciful to me a sinner, Lord, because without You I'm nothing more.
My Saviour give me strength to do Your will.
So it may be fulfilled.
There's room at the table.
No one acts like they want to harvest the crop.
Don't let Your manna stop.
There are deaths here.
But there won't be any up there.
There won't be any need for medicine and pills.
In heaven you will be able to throw it away and say big deal.
You won't suffer or hurt.
Because your body will go back to dirt.
Don't get mad and angry.
Jesus wasn't that way.
Can't you understand the time is now.
The Lord's coming back and how.
The popularity, your so called friends, the drugs, and your money will pass away.
Never to return another day.
Everybody came in this world with nothing and leave this world with nothing.
Without Him we are nothing.
Come to Him before it's too late.
Don't miss the date.
I pray the sinners to come to Him.
In Jesus precious name,
A-men.

The hardest thing for me is to let go of my own expectations. For I still want to live what "I" consider to be a good life in this world, but if it is indeed true that He has my best interest at heart, how can all of the suffering that I have had to endure not been for my ultimate good?
