| Romans 8:26 - Got You Covered
“And the Holy Spirit helps us in our weakness. For example, we don’t know what God wants us to pray for. But the Holy Spirit prays for us with groanings that cannot be expressed in words.” (Romans 8:26 NLT)
by Chris
There are times where, as foolish as it sounds, I feel like I’ve prayed for everyone and everything.
Foreal.
I wake up and start to pray and just draw a blank. Most the times I will start repeating the same prayer(s) I prayed a couple days ago.
I know there’s more I should, and could, be praying for but I just can’t seem to identify exactly what.
Well, there’s a lot of ways to solve that problem. The easiest is this...
...pray to the Holy Spirit to intercede for you.
God is so good that he knew there would be times where we would draw blanks and don’t know what to pray for. So he provided the Holy Spirit a way to pray for us.
Wow.
Just for the record, God has done so much for us that even 10,000 tongues could not express. Yet we find ourselves at a loss of words at times of prayer. But God doesn’t condemn us, He actually gives us a Comforter who will simply pray to Him, for us, what we should be praying ourselves.
Amazing.
If that’s not love I don’t know what is.
Brothers, prayer is powerful. As Christians, it is our secret weapon. It keeps us connected with the Father and provides new perspective on old situations.
Long story short...prayer just works.
God wants it to work for you. Even if you don’t know the words to say.
Lets pray...
“Father thank you for loving us so much. You are so patient, kind, and merciful. Never condemning and always loving. Thank you for your Comforter that prays on our behalf Lord. Help us to call on Him more when words slip our minds, heart, or tongue. Thank you for a means to stay in constant communication with you Father. We need you desperately and love you deeply. We know you hear each and every one of our prayers, in Jesus name...
Amen”
