Various Scripture - "Just Say Jesus"

I woke up this morning praying for an individual that is so mad and distraught.  Their faith has faltered to the point of not existing any longer.   I have prayed for them.  I have tried to see them but they refuse.  I feel like I am getting nowhere with them.  That hurts.  I wish they would just give me a chance to sit and talk.  I've never been in their situation but I have been in the place of being mad at the Lord.  It's not a fun place to be.  I remember times of being so miserable because of how I felt toward Him.  As I was praying this morning, the song "Just Say Jesus" came to me.  

The part that goes, "If the words won't come; Cause you're too afraid to pray..." is a place I've been.  In fact just the other night I found myself in that place.  I received a text that infuriated me.  I got so mad about it that the thought that went through my head was, "I need to ask some people to pray about this situation because the Lord won't listen to my prayers with the way I'm feeling."  Thankfully He always hears our prayers.  After I calmed down then I was able to pray.  But if I would have thought of this song all I would have had to do was "Just say Jesus..."  

"Whisper it now, or shout it out
However it comes out, He hears your cry
Out of nowhere He will come, you got to believe it
He will rescue you
Just call out to the Way, The Truth, The Light"


There is power in the name of Jesus and He has given us that power when we call upon His Name. He has shown us the power in His Name.

Dear Jesus,
The enemy is working overtime in many lives.  He is making them believe lies.  He is tearing families apart.  Father, I pray in Your Precious Name, the one You have put on my heart would open themselves back up to You.  I pray they will see through the lies and begin living with You again.  Father, this world can tear us down so quickly.  At times, it's hard to keep going.  That's where this person is today.  Lord, I pray in Your Holy Name, to be so real to them today.  Father, You have given me such a burden for them but yet I feel like I'm making no progress.  I know things have to occur in Your Time.  I also know I will not give up until I see victory.  Bless my efforts, Lord, in a mighty way.  I am claiming John 15:16.

  You did not choose Me, but I chose you and appointed you that you should go and bear fruit, and that your fruit should remain, that whatever you ask the Father in My name He may give you. (NKJ)  Lord, I pray for fruit to be in abundance as You use me.  

Thank You Lord for being My Jesus!  Amen.
