Chaplain’s Column
Do you know that God delights in hearing your prayers? That may be hard to believe since we can’t
even get an electrician or plumber to call us back, so why would God listen to
our prayers? You would think that as important as He is, He would not have the
time to listen, but He does. Our prayers
matter to God because we matter to God.
We aren’t just anybody, we are his child.
You see when God saved us, he
enlisted us. He gave not only
forgiveness for our past, but also authority in the present and a role in our
future. This life is on-the-job training
for eternity. “If we endure, we will also reign with Him” (2 Timothy 2:12).
Will God do what you ask? Perhaps. Or perhaps he will do more than you
could ever have imagined. Stand firmly on this promise: “When a believing person prays, great things
happen” (James 5:16). And because God’s promises are unbreakable, our hope is
and should be unshakable!
