".. if we see a Christian believer sinning... we ask for God's help and He gladly gives it, gives life to the sinner..." The Message, I John 5:16
"If we are not heedful to the way the Spirit of God works in us we will become spiritual hypocrites we see where other folks are failing and we turn our discernment into gibe instead of intercession.
God reveals things that we may take the burden of these souls before Him... that we rouse ourselves until God is able to convey His mind to us about the one for whom we intercede...
Is Jesus Christ seeing the travail of His soul in us?"
Oswald Chambers
the world would be unrecognizable if we were to turn all found faults of others to prayer and intercession. what would that mean in our very own family life if instead of harping on each others faults we prayed for each other? maybe then the Church would glow brightly-a beacon to the hurting world; united and whole.
Father forgive us for our petty complaints against each other...
help us to see others with Your eyes of love and to turn all that we see that would hinder someone from fulfilling Your plan for their life to prayer... rather than gibe. Thank You for your mercy for our shortcomings and Your grace to walk on... in Love with one another... Let the world see Your love through us- I pray.
