Well I am claiming what our Pastor stated last night in our 6pm session. He said that he had prayed with a couple who had "needs" and that he believes we will be standing up at the end of the 40 days with our testimony of how God answered our prayer. I stand and believe and claim that with PB. For I am one half of "the couple" he was referring to. I came home last night and wrote down the date and what was cited so we can reflect and use it in our testimony later. I had also had asked the pastor to pray for something specific that had a more urgent matter and no sooner did I come home that God began to move in the direction for me to go and led me to what to do. In less than 12 hours of us praying, God showed me who to call and when I did I received encouraging news. It was a direct result of me obeying God and making a vow that I would serve Him and honor Him and give Him "all of me", "all of the time", not just when I get scared. So once again the number 40 is significant to me and my life. I never knew the number had any meaning until July 5th, 2010. But I know that He is going to do great and mighty things during my 40 days of prayer. And that was not even my intention nor my purpose when I gave my committment and promise to God that I would attend every session with my husband. I simply wanted to show God that He is first in my life, no matter what. And to receive any reward for my obedience is wonderful and I love Him for it. But more important to me than anything? Fulfilling my promise to God. I love you Lord and I thank you for just being you.
Mark 11: 22-25
