Psalms 36:5 Thy mercy, O LORD, is in the heavens; and thy faithfulness reacheth unto the clouds.
Our most fervent prayer for Elianna, our sweet two year old girl, is that Jesus would reveal Himself and His salvation to her in a way she can understand. Today, just before her nap, Elianna said to my wife, "I love Yeshua" ( that's Jesus in Hebrew). Elianna repeated this two or three times, clear as day. Rivka was absolutely stunned. But why should she be? The Lord hears and answers prayer.
Among those in the court of Alexander the Great was a philosopher of outstanding ability but little money. He asked Alexander for financial help and was told to draw whatever he needed from the imperial treasury. But when the man requested an amount equal to $50,000, he was refused — the treasurer needed to verify that such a large sum was authorized. When he asked Alexander, the ruler replied, "Pay the money at once. The philosopher has done me a singular honor. By the largeness of his request he shows that he has understood both my wealth and generosity."
In the same way we honor the Lord when we come to Him humbly and ask for great things.
Be encouraged and believe for great things! God has wonderful answers in store!
