THEME: GOD ANSWERS PRAYERS
Genesis 21:17-19 NIV
“God heard the boy crying, and the angel of God called to Hagar from heaven and said to her, “What is the matter, Hagar? Do not be afraid; God has heard the boy crying as he lies there. Lift the boy up and take him by the hand, for I will make him into a great nation.” Then God opened her eyes and she saw a well of water. So she went and filled the skin with water and gave the boy a drink.”
INSIGHT
-When Hagar and her son Ismael were ejected from Abraham’s house, they wondered in the desert and ran out of water. The Lord heard the anguish of the lad, whose suffering from thirst were greater than those of the mother. An angel was sent, to address Hagar in the simple words of encouragement and direction, to lift the boy and take him by hand. The former promise in Genesis 16:10 is renewed to her and Ismael. God also opened her eyes and she saw a well of water, from which the bottle is replenished, and they are recruited for their further journey. God therefore responds to her cry and that of her boy, and provides that which they require for the journey and prosperity. God is our provider and our ever present help in times of trouble, and when we call to Him, He answers.
PRAYER
God You are our refuge and strength, our ever-present help in trouble. Thank Your providence, protection, and preservation. Thank You for Your kindness, goodness, mercy, love, peace, joy and for every spirituality blessing. We count our blessings and name them one by one. Thank You for keeping Your promises upon us, for You are a promise keeping God. You are faithful and holy God. May You deliver us from every trouble and tribulation. Save us Oh Lord and all those who are suffering among us. Have mercy on us and vindicate us. May You heal all the broken hearted. May You deliver all the street families who lack the basic requirements and are lost in the streets. May You deliver all those who live in darkness and save them merciful Savior. May the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, and the love of God, and the fellowship of the Holy Spirit, be with us now and forever more. Amen
