Remembering Jesus Our Mediator

there is one mediator between God and men..

Yet To be

The blood of Jesus makes atonement for sin (to make things right before God)
Without shedding blood, there could be no reconciliation with God.
Being washed in the precious blood of Jesus, we can approach the throne of grace in boldness because Jesus’ blood covers us.
God is holy, and in His presence we are seen in Christ Jesus.
God sees this coverage and passes over in judgment. There is no other access to God except through His only begotten son, Jesus Christ. It is a privilege that allows us to come into His holy presence through the largeness of His grace.

For there is one God, and there is one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus. 1 Timothy 2 verse 5

But now in Christ Jesus you who once were far off have been brought near by the blood of Christ. Ephesians 2 verse 13.

Yet To be #130

they that wait on the Lord shall renew their strength.

Prayer Warrior Waits

Bring your requests to the throne of grace leave it at his feet.

Prayer is our strength.

We fight on our knees for others, and for self.

Time passes and yet there is nothing to be heard, nothing to see.  

The prayer goes silent.

The light of hope fades into a flicker.

Wait. Wait. And wait some more.

If we wait our strength will be renewed.

Night will turn into day.

The sun will break the darkness.

Because the answer is on the way.

Let none that wait on thee be ashamed. Psalm25:3

Thou shalt know that I am the Lord for they shall not be ashamed that wait for me.  Isaiah 49:23

They that wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength. Isaiah 40:31

Yet To Be # 127

Looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith.

Prayer Warrior’s Prep

  1. Be passionate. Be all in.  James 5 verse 16 “The effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man avails much.”
  2. Not doubting but believing. James 1:6 -8 “But let him ask in faith, nothing wavering (doubting). For he that wavers (doubts) is like a wave of the sea driven with the wind and tossed. For let not that man think that he shall receive anything of the Lord. A doubleminded man is unstable in all his ways.
  3. Eyes on our leader. Hebrews 12:2 “Looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith.”
  4. Go aside alone Matthew 6:6 “When you pray enter into your closet and when you shut the door pray to your Father which is in secret.”
  5. Keep it simple. Matthew 6:5 “And when you pray use not vain repetitions.”
  6. Have confidence.  Hebrews 4:16 “Let us therefore come boldly unto the throne of grace that we may obtain mercy and find grace to help in time of need.”
  7. Knowing He hears. 1 John 5:15 “If we know that he hears us, whatsoever we ask we know that we have the petitions that we desired of him.”
  8. The Battle is His 1 Samuel 17:47 “And all this assembly shall know that the Lord saves not with sword and spear: for the battle is the Lord’s.”
  9. Know the battle cry.  1 Samuel 17:45 “I come in the name of the Lord of hosts, the God of armies of Israel, whom you have defied…prepare to die.”
