The Power of Prayer

Psalm 121:1 “I lift up mine eyes unto the hills, where does my help come from? My help comes from the Lord, the Maker of Heaven and earth.”

Aircraft carriers are designed to deploy, not be moored to the pier. It is a war ship. And we are a nation at war. A global war against terroism, and a moral war of good versus evil.

In times of uncertainty and anxiety, we can look to the Lord and ask for his help and guidance. God's peace is one that passes all understanding. God cares for us and our circumstances. Uncertainty and anxiety is exchanged for peace, a stillness that quiets the storm.


Prayer: Thank you Father that only you can calm the storms of life. Whatever winds of change swirl around us, you are able to keep us in perfect peace. Help us to remember to ask you first for help when anxious moments stir in our hearts. Help us to lift up those that are serving in difficult surroundings. May they also look to you when anxious moments come, and may you give them peace.
