Pray in Faith

"I tell you, you can pray for anything, and if you believe that you've received it, it will be yours." Mark 11:24 (NLT)

         These words were words written in red, so these words carry a little bit greater weight because Christ spoke them. In his effort to establish a proper mindset to his disciples he told them this so that they would be bold enough to understand in the effort to do whatever needs to be done for God all the tools they would ever need would be provided by God. So they didn't have to worry about the tools or the finances, or even the power to get things done. All they would have to do is name it, believe for it, and it was going to happen.

          Oh if we had this mindset today, imagine the things in this world we'd be able to do. Jesus raised dead men, He made blind people see, He restored lives with the supernatural power that flowed through Him all because He prayed for anything and believed for it. Now consider Jesus' promise to us in John 14:12, "I tell you the truth, anyone who believes in me will do the same works I have done, and even greater works, because I am going to be with the Father." If that isn't a cause to Pray in Faith I don't know what is.
