Matthew 7:13-14 [The Narrow and Wide Gates]”;Enter through the narrow gate. For wide is the gate and broad is the road that leads to destruction, and many enter through it.But small is the gate and narrow the road that leads to life, and only a few find it.
Dear God this path that you have called and chosen me to follow – because many are called BUT few are chosen – I pray today for your continued strength to push me through each thorn in the flesh that you have allow to buffet me. I thank for the thorns father. They force me to rely on you. Sometimes I am not even aware of the fact that the thorn is there. I know that I feel the presence of something. I know that the physical reaction is that that something is hurting me, but do I know what it is? Sometimes no! It’s like when I am gardening. I come into the house and something is aggravating me in my hand I just don’t know what it is..then as I do other things in the house I realize that I have a thorn in my flesh. The only problem is I have allowed it to bury it self into my hand so getting it out is even harder. Ii have had to rely on you to bring at least one thing to the surface so I could get it out.
Father please keep working with me and showing me who I am in the flesh, and who I am meant to be in the spirit. Use whatever it takes to mold and shape me into the Joyce you want me to be. Give me the patience to endure all things so I can be the light that you want me to be. I pray for all those whom I have left behind on my job. I pray for your divine protection on them father, that they will sense your holy spirit moving in their lives, that they will look to you and to you alone and step out believing that you are there to make a way out of no-way.
I pray for the EA team to come to know you as THEIR personal friend and their GOD and that you have a divine appointment for them. You have called them to reach thousands for the kingdom of God. I pray that that vision will be clear to them – why? BECAUSE every single one of them have a thorn in the flesh! Bless them Lord Jesus let them see the urgency of their calling and give them the drive an desire to serve you and your people. The internet is so impersonal, but millions out there need Jesus..many will never come to know him without this medium. I thank you for the daily visitors who actually come to this blog and support this thorn in the flesh ministry. It warms my heart each time someone posts. Teach each of us Lord Jesus and our Heavenly father to live more like you and to love more like you…remind us daily that the through which we walk is narrow and only few find it. Keep us from the wide path that leads to destruction. IN JESUS HOLY MIGHTY AND MAJESTIC NAME..amen!!
