A simple but powerful prayer request

I don't normally do this, but check out this prayer request left behind at the corps (church) on Sunday by one of our young people.

"Help me do what God asks me - the first time - and without hesitation."

Sounds like a prayer that God wants to answer for all of us. Lord make that all of our prayers today.

How about this scripture to back it up...

James 5:16 Therefore confess your sins to each other and pray for each other so that you may be healed. The prayer of a righteous man is powerful and effective.

Now check it out in the amplified translation: Confess to one another therefore your faults - your slips, your false steps, your offenses, your sins - and pray also for one another, that you may be healed and restored to a spiritual tone of mind and heart. The earnest, heartfelt, continued prayer of a righteous man makes tremendous power available -dynamic in its working.

Do what God asks, the first time, without hesitation today!

Live holy, preach Jesus!
