-Roy Lessin

Hello Friends! The next few weeks we will be presenting scriptures that Roy has compiled to encourage us in prayer. We pray that it enables you to have a fruitful prayer life, and that you see the benefits of praying more! -Marina

An Invitation to Pray

 

Therefore, brothers, since we have confidence to enter the Most Holy Place by the blood of Jesus, by a new and living way opened for us through the curtain, that is, His body, and since we have a great priest over the house of God, let us draw near to God with a sincere heart in full assurance of faith, having our hearts sprinkled to cleanse us from a guilty conscience and having our bodies washed with pure water (Hebrews 10:19-22 NIV).

 

I exhort therefore, that, first of all, supplications, prayers, intercessions, and giving of thanks, be made for all men (1 Timothy 2:1 KJV).

Answered Prayer

 

To the Lord I cry aloud, and He answers me from His holy hill (Psalm 3:4 NIV).

 

Answer me when I call to You, O my righteous God. Give me relief from my distress; be merciful to me and hear my prayer (Psalm 4:1 NIV).

 

You have granted him the desire of his heart and have not withheld the request of his lips (Psalm 21:2 NIV).

 

I sought the Lord, and He answered me; He delivered me from all my fears. Those who look to Him are radiant; their faces are never covered with shame. This poor man called, and the Lord heard him; He saved him out of all his troubles (Psalm 34:4-6 NIV).

 

I waited patiently for the Lord; He turned to me and heard my cry (Psalm 40:1 NIV).

 

God has surely listened and heard my voice in prayer. Praise be to God,

who has not rejected my prayer or withheld His love from me! (Psalm 66:19-20 NIV).
