Not only does god bring you back to health, but also he protects. Roger used to be a salesman, and on the way to one of his appointments he noticed his gas was low. After his meeting he saw on the outdoor thermometer it was five degrees below zero. As soon as he drove about 5 miles his engine started to lose power because he ran out of gas. He remembered when he almost froze off his toes and his doctor said they would have to amputate them if they froze again. Then all of a sudden, the car picked up speed and carried him 27 miles home without any gas!
Mr. Morneau tells us of blessings we can only get by having a close relationship Jesus. These blessings include: divine compassionate love, heavenly joy, heavenly peace, long suffering, gentleness, goodness, living faith, meekness, and self-control. These are (if you ever read the book) is fully described in chapter 4.
God doesn't always answer prayer right away. We need to pray every day and believe God will answer. "Ask, and you will receive. Seek, and you will find. Knock, and it will be opened to you." (Matt 7:7) God will always answer prayer, but He won't always say "yes". That's why we need to pray every day.
Mr. Morneau tells of a time when he needed to get a few things from the store. He was sitting in the car, when a car parked beside his and the couple in the car starts fighting. Roger starts praying for them and the couple stopped, apologized to each other, and went shopping happily together!
We can and should call on the Lord for help with any problems. God can answer any prayer and there is no problem too big or too small for God. Only God can totally fix your problems and erase your sins. The Spirit of God strengthened the early Christians, enabling them to become something they other wise couldn't have been. We are still acquiring the biblical faith which we need before God can honor our prayers as He did the disciples and other early Christians. This faith consists of three things:
1. Belief in God.
2. Trust in God.
3. Loyalty to God
Mr. Morneau lists five steps to a successful prayer life. These steps are as follows:
Step1: Have a close relationship with Jesus.
Step2: Build faith and memorize the word of God.
Step3: Pray for other people and a higher level of faith for not only you, but for others as well.
Step4: Pray with greatest possible interest and desire for an answer.
Step5: Forgiveness makes the difference.
Everyone needs someone to get rid of our sins. The only one and way is to pray that God will forgive you and others. Prayer is the only way to talk to God. If we reject prayer it is the same as rejecting God. We can't live without God. Prayer is one of the most essential things in the world. This book tells just how important communication with God really is.
God has blessed me with more than I can describe in a thousand pages. I love the Lord because He always answers my prayers. Pray for your self and see how God will bless you!
