Praying For FaithSample

DAY SEVEN: What Kind of Faith Do You Have?  

Do you have the kind of faith that believes God for situations that are impossible in the natural, that kind of faith that says, “I will not let go of my sons and my daughters. I will not let go of my marriage. I will not let go of my faith—even though my situation looks hopeless, I trust God will hear my cry?

“God, I cry out to You, for You are the only One who can make a difference. Send the answer into my life, and supernaturally give me victory in this area of my life.

“O God, I’ve carried this wound around in my life far too long. I cry out to You, God, and I ask You, Lord, for the healing that You’ve promised. Fill me with Your Holy Spirit, O God; give me the strength that can only come from You, and make a difference through my life.

“I lift up the people that I know who seem so indifferent to truth. But You know their heart, and there’s something arising in this generation. There’s a cry now coming into it. I can hear it now. There’s a cry in this generation!”

Evangelist George Müller said, “Faith does not operate in the realm of the possible. There is no glory for God in that which is humanly possible. Faith begins where man’s power ends.”

There are so many people who cry themselves to sleep at night. They don’t know God; they have no way out; they feel nothing but hopelessness.

We need to press in and pray; casual prayer will not meet the need of this hour.

When the Son of Man comes, will He find faith on the earth?

Will He find faith in you?
