Prayer can be wrong!!!

<< < (3/4) > >>

Richard D:
Hi George.

Great point you made here.  I was reading a part of Ray’s papers on praying and Ray was saying if we pray for Gods will be done our prayers will always be answered but if we pray for a new house or car or a better job we might not find our prays being answered.

However having said that I also will not put God into a box either, I use to put God in my pocket when I was apart of Christendom and took God out of my pocket on Sunday and what good did that do?

                                                  In His Love. Richard.

Richard,

Let me say that your questions have been a source of much research and study for me. At first i thought
your posts were strange and naive; no longer as i have been allowed by God to see just a bit better
than at my first glance (emotional response). My prayers were always before to get something for my use
or pleasure now. I emulated (O'steen, Hagee, Stanley, Crystal Cathedral ??) and quite a few more possibility
thinkers/teachers before coming to BT. Thankfully through Gods providence even before i knew of BT, He
was dragging me from my beastly throne kicking and screaming. Brother, always ask the questions that
you are prompted to ask since you do not know who will be uplifted by the answers provided.

In Love and Prayer,

George.

Hello All, I really am blessed to have you all as Brothers and Sisters in Christ. I had a sin in my life to me it was the worse thing I had ever done. I got closer to God and wanted it all to end. But, it did not end so easily.  I felt it was impossible to be forgiven. I wanted it to go away. Something else came. My hate for it came yes. But ,the most wonderful thing happend from my prayers and I know it was Gods will.
Through this sin I learned to hate hell. He took me out of a near death experience. Showed me who was in control. He grew me so much from that experience. Yes, we can hate our sins, yes he is more then able to take us out of them. He gave me more then I ever dreamed possible from that sin. I hated hell and I found Ray Smiths Website and all of you. What an answer to a sin that he not only gave me victory over, but I will never forget that he showed me the Loving Father he truly is.
Also,  a friend sent me something about an end time warning. The man was  saying there is a hell. A terrible sadness came over me and I could feel fear set in. But, I thought of all I have been taught by God. Peace came over me and it was if God said do not let anyone steal truth from you. You are in my hands I am all you need no matter what. I am just so glad I dont believe in hell. I have been let out of a Hell in my mind. I am eternally grateful do our Great God.So, yes our sins can turn into blessings and bring us right to where he wants us.
Love to all,
Marlene

After reading you’re response I know in my heart exactly what you mean, I was raised in the Roman Catholic faith and was a big time believer in the hell doctrine. Marlene, I was a very gullible person. They saw me coming a mile away……LOL…… But no more!

I remember through out my life having conversations with God, actually saying, even if I’m the most evil man on earth and only live eighty years it’s not fair of you to make me suffer longer than eight years.

What a sick way to live life. But now, I understand that the good news really is GOOD NEWS.

No one can ever make me believe that filthy demonic garbage again. And when I get the opportunity to tell them one day even Satan will be saved too. Oh yes, that is how good God really is, Not one of His creatures will be lost. How about that now!!!

 Marlene, I’m thankful to God that he led you here. God blessed you very much.

                      In His Love, You’re friend and brother in Christ. Richard.

Hi Marlene, you speak of a sin I know what you mean, when God showed me how disgusting and depraved I was.
I had a horrible sin  too, I was so depressed and felt worthless but after much repenting and talking about my sin to God he surely forgave me because I have never had a desire since this, but to be pleasing to God.
I know I still sin but for me my sin was the worst, God forgave me my husband forgave me and I finally forgave myself, knowing  now I am at a much more spiritual place.
I am glad I got through this with the strong guiding hand of God.
I was at my worst during this, but God is healing my spirit one day at a time.
I agree with you God can make a blessing from our weakness.  :)
