Make your Request known

Bring forward your requests to me the Lord says, “Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God;” Philippians 4:6

The familiar ring tone went off, it was my mom. I heard this urgent cry for help, there wasn’t a hello or good morning, “I need to get an Uber ride and I can’t make it work.” I heard her say. I tried to first to calm my mom down and proceeded to walk her through the steps of getting into her Uber app. As I was going through the steps, I noted my mom had a lot of anxiety and frustration. I stopped and asked mom if she prayed before she started this endeavor. She sheepishly said no, I need to pray.

Our problems can be solved by praying. Make your request known to me says the Lord.

“f you ask anything in My name, I will do it.” John 14:14

We have such a gracious God that hears our cries.

“For the eyes of the Lord are on the righteous, And His ears are open to their prayers;But the face of the Lord is against those who do evil.” 1 Peter 3:12

“And if we know that He hears us, whatever we ask, we know that we have the petitions that we have asked of Him.” 1 John 5:15
