Psalms 2 and 3 - Prayer of Faith

8 Ask me, and I will give you the nations as your inheritance
and the ends of the earth as your own possession.
9 You will break them with an iron scepter.
You will smash them to pieces like pottery.”
Psalms 2:8-9 (GW)

4 I call aloud to the Lord,
and he answers me from his holy mountain. Selah
5 I lie down and sleep.
I wake up again because the Lord continues to support me.
6 I am not afraid of the tens of thousands
who have taken positions against me on all sides.
Psalms 3:4-6 (GW)

Reflection of B:

Although Chpt 2 was referring to Christ, it is also a principle for Christians to learn to ask God for the right things by faith. Chpt 3:4 confirms that when we call on God He will answer us. Calling on God is praying to Him.

We are able to have peaceful sleep because we can be sure of God's support. Therefore, we are not afraid of anyone who may come against us. This is a timely message for me as I am facing some obstacles in forming the sisters ministry.

Dear Lord,
Thank You for reminding me that when I call on You and You will hear me. I thank You that no one can come against me when I am in Your will. Continue to keep me and my sisters strong in You as we go through the process of forming the sisters group. Help us not to feel discouraged by these setbacks. Grant us wisdom to speak the right words. Pray also that the leaders will support our desire to serve You.
In Jesus' name I pray. Amen.
