Prevailing Prayer

  “ Hear my voice, O God, in my prayer: Preserve my life from fear of the enemy. And all men shall fear, and shall declare the work of God; For they shall wisely consider of his doing. The righteous shall be glad in the LORD, and shall trust in him; And all the upright in heart shall glory. ” Psalm‬ ‭64‬:‭1‬, ‭9‬-‭10‬ ‭KJV‬‬ The only escape from Ichabod experience in life is a prevailing prayer. Prior to this turnaround experience, believer’s prayer is often a channel for the expression of fear, anxiety, and worry. The fear of the enemy’s sagacity, strategies, and sentences is the basis for perplexing prayer, when the hearts are overwhelmed by wiles and ways of the wicked. Notwithstanding, pushing through towards “ Hear my voice, O God, in my prayer “ remains the privilege of a prevailing prayer.

Wonderful Works

  “All men shall fear, And shall declare the work of God; For they shall wisely consider His doing. The righteous shall be glad in the Lord, and trust in Him.

Notwithstanding, those who trust in the Lord and keep their garment of righteousness will wait for the manifestation of God’s wonderful works.

Bitter Bargain

"The righteous shall be glad in the Lord, and trust in Him. And all the upright in heart shall glory." (Psalms 64:10 NKJV) In the world's gladness market, bidders are faced with the frustrating challenge of gaining control over the volatile trend of gladness. Every trading for gladness must forcefully sow sorrow in the life of others. Unfortunately, there is no rest for the wicked who delight in injecting bitterness in the affairs of others, while in a fruitless search for personal gladness and fulfilment. But for the righteous, who are fortunate to avoid concious or unconcious induction into the bitter bargain system of the world, the Lord gives grace and glory in excahnge for every arrow of the wicked. David had tasted the reward system of the Lord, and he encourages the righteous to trust in the Lord. No one wins on the floor of bitter bargain; but everyone wins in the fellowship of righteous bargain.
