Devotions on F.I.R.E. Year One

DAY 7 OF 365

The effective, fervent prayer of a righteous man avails much (James 5:16).

Are you a blessing to others?

God tells Abraham, “And you shall be a blessing” (Genesis 12:2). Literally the statement is an imperative; the Lord commands Abraham to be a blessing. Truly, Abraham turns out to be a blessing to Lot. His nephew had “pitched his tent even as far as Sodom” (Genesis 13:12), and later moved into the wicked city. His compromise led to moral failure demonstrated by offering his daughters to wicked men (Genesis 19:8). Thankfully the Lord honors the prayers of Abraham, which led to Lot’s deliverance (Genesis 19:29). We should also cultivate a vital relationship with the Lord. Jesus says, “When you pray, go into your room, and when you have shut your door, pray to your Father who is in the secret place; and your Father who sees in secret will reward you openly” (Matthew 6:6).

Employment Point: Intercede for others privately and watch God bless you openly.
