Pray for Families (Enlightened by the Word)

With cluttered inboxes, all of you still receive these prayer reminders whether you read them, delete them, or forward them. They are not sent because I am a brilliant writer (for I am not), but they are sent because they contain the Word of God.  


Indeed, the word of God is living and effective, sharper than any two-edged sword, penetrating even between soul and spirit, joints and marrow, and able to discern reflections and thoughts of the heart. Hebrews 4:12


The Lord uses his Word to touch each of you in a unique way.  


Your word is a lamp for my feet, a light for my path. Psalm 119:105


His Word will guide you in your family decisions, your daily prayer life, and your walk to holiness. These emails are your constant reminder to pray because when one is busy, you can forget that which may not yet be a priority. Even if you pray daily, there was a time when you didn’t. You got to where you are spiritually because someone prayed for you. Even if that someone was a stranger! That is why we pray for our families, as invariably, they need our prayers to live a life of joy in Christ.


Proclaim the word; be persistent whether it is convenient or inconvenient; convince, reprimand, encourage through all patience and teaching. For the time will come when people will not tolerate sound doctrine but, following their own desires and insatiable curiosity, will accumulate teachers and will stop listening to the truth and will be diverted to myths. 2 Timothy 4:2-4


In love and kindness, proclaim The Truth, give your testimony, and encourage your family and others to hold fast to Him who loves them.  As an example, immerse yourself in the Word.


How can they call on him in whom they have not believed? And how can they believe in him of whom they have not heard? And how can they hear without someone to preach? And how can people preach unless they are sent? As it is written, “How beautiful are the feet of those who bring [the] good news!” Romans 10:14-15

   

Tread on, bringing the Good News to all!


Peace, Joy, and Love,

Janet


Beautiful are the feet of those who pass it on!
