Believing Matters


I heard a song in main stream radio has a line you where the singer says "Just praying to a God that I don't believe in". It's a weird statement. Why pray if you don't believe. Well lets send that dude a letter and tell him about Jesus.  You know, many who don't believe in God have no where to turn when they need a miracle. And when you need a prayer answered, then what you believe matters. Here's what I mean, Jesus said in Mark 11:24 "Whatever you ask for in prayer, believe that you have received it, and it will be yours." There are many important keys to effective prayer, and here is one, you need to believe. When Peter tried walking on the water and fell in, Jesus said it was his lack of faith. And many times as Jesus healed He would tell them that it was their faith that had healed them. Faith is what you believe. Do you think that Jesus knew something about praying? Yeah, me too. Well in this scripture the key was to believe. What are you praying for? Now believe that you have received it. If Jesus taught us how to pray more effectively, it means he wants you to be successful in your praying.
