What Difference Do My Prayers Make?

Many...even established and sincere believers...ask WHAT DIFFERNCE DO MY PRAYERS REALLY MAKE? Listen to what the Holy Spirit says in His Word:


"For I know that through your prayers and the help of the Spirit of Jesus Christ this will turn out for my deliverance." Phil. 1:19


"The prayer of a righteous person has great power as it is working." James 5:16


"You do not have, because you do not ask." James 4:2


Paul highlights that the prayers of the Philippians along with the help of the Spirit will work together for his deliverance. Paul could have easily left that out...many of us do or would have. Paul could have simply said that because of the work of the Spirit I will be delivered. But, he didn't. He clearly stated that through "your prayers...and the help of the Spirit"!


James give us two clear admonitions to pray. He clearly says that our prayers, because we are righteous in Jesus (2 Cor. 5:21), have "great power" to work! Isn't Jesus great that when He saved us He also made us righteous so we could pray prayers of power!

James also exhorts us that many of us sit without...without answers...without joy...without provision...without breakthroughs simply because we "do not ask." What are we missing because of silence.


Recently I've asked God for things that I didn't have great faith for at the time...and God moved! I urge you to join me in ASKING, SEEKING AND KNOCKING! What a privilege to pray!
