Today I have had an Epiphany. Over the years I had a specific prayer praying over my husband at the time. Who when I married I know now was not from GOD. For crying out loud the night we got married he spent the night smoking crack. I praise God that I know that I am not ever going to settle for anything less that GOD has for me. Ladies, do not ever lower your standards in life when you know you deserve better and the man that you are with has no idea how to love the way he is suppose to. Back to my epiphany….the whole time I prayed specific prayers over him, something like this:
- GOD is #1
- Thinks of others before him
- Committed to building the Kingdom of GOD
- Have a Corinthians love
- Pushes me closer to Christ
- loves GOD, not the World
- Strives to avoid lust and other temptations
- Devotes his life to GOD
- A man of forgiveness
- Loves his enemies
- Hard Worker
- Lives to please GOD
- Never gives up
- Obeys GOD
- noble
- selfless
- joyful
- full of wisdom
- protective
- sets a christian example
- leader
- honest/trustworthy
- encouraging
- faithful
- man of prayer
- giving heart
- loves kids
- loves me uncondiontally’
- strives to keep his heart and mind pure
If you are SINGLE or married these are all good things to pray for.
Now what GOD showed me this morning is that I should have been patient and waited as I am striving to during my singleness and I will add being content. He reminded me that my prayers do not ever go unheard and at times we forget things we prayed over but today I am at peace knowing that he remembers this cry and my prayer will be answered. I also remember my diligent prayer to be able to get pregnant and even that prayer I know was heard. I know with out a shadow of a doubt that all this time my prayers are going to be answered In the name of Jesus. All that time it wasn’t being answered was because he knew what was best for me and he directed my steps and knew that I was not suppose to marry my x but that he only be in my life for a season and it was not meant for me to have his child because he has bigger plans for me through my prayers that where being prayed then and till this day. Don’t ever give up on your prayers! Stay consistent, you also may pray for certain things and he will answer those prayers. They may not be answered exactly the way you want bc he is our father who knows best and they will be answered accordingly.
ALL MY TIME IN PRAYER WAS NOT INTENDED FOR THE SEASON THEN BUT FOR WHAT HE HAS IN STORE FOR ME.
