Topic: EFFECTIVE PRAYERS
Text: Read: Romans 2:13
Daily Bible Study: Num. 1-2; Mk. 2

“For not the hearers of the law are just before God, but the doers of the law shall be justified” (Rom. 2:13).

Prayer is our greatest form of communication with a holy and righteous God who has provided a way for us to not only worship Him but to also know Him personally. Through prayer, we discover the depths of God's mercy and love for us. Prayer is our means of confessing our sins, and receiving God’s forgiveness. It is also our means of asking and receiving blessings from God. In spite of these advantages, many till avoid prayer.

The Bible tells us that, “The effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man availeth much” (Jas. 5:16). Who then is a righteous man and how does he pray effectively? Righteousness means doing what is right according to the Word of God. A righteous man wants to see God's Truth and will established on this earth. A righteous man is a man who is in right standing with God. A righteous man has a personal relationship with Jesus Christ as his personal Saviour. A righteous man seeks to obey God and yields to the dictates of the Holy Spirit.

For those who are in a right relationship with God, their prayers will open the way for a Spirit-filled life and bring them power for ministry. Their prayers will bring others who are spiritually lost into a relationship with Christ; and also bring them healing, grace, mercy, peace and hope. Let us strive to be righteous and pray effective prayers to heal our sicknesses, liberate souls from darkness and set the captives free from the strong hold of the enemy.

Prayer: Almighty God, please reveal anything in my life that might be a hindrance to my relationship with You. Help me to live righteously and pray effectively. I pray in the name of Jesus Christ – Amen.

POLITICS (PLEASE POST YOUR OPINION) Donald Trump will tonight hand out his inaugural ‘fake news awards’ to the media outlets that have most angered him during his first year as President. The Commander in Chief announced the bizarre ceremony in a tweet late Tuesday, writing: ‘I will be announcing THE MOST DISHONEST & CORRUPT MEDIA AWARDS OF THE YEAR on Monday at 5:00 o’clock. ‘Subjects will cover Dishonesty & Bad Reporting in various categories from the Fake News Media. Stay tuned!’ President Trump has been most vociferous in attacking CNN for its supposed ‘fake news’, with the network widely expected to win the majority of gongs. The awards are likely to be ‘handed out’ in a series of scathing tweets from Mr Trump, and it is unclear whether he will present winners with any sort of booby prize. He popularized the term fake news during his White House run, using it to attack reports whose facts he disputes. But Trump’s critics claim it is an easy way of shouting down va...

CANCER IS NOT DEADLY Dr. Muthami says,  No one must die of cancer except out of carelessness; (1). First step is to stop all sugar intake, without sugar in your body, cancer cell would die a natural death. (2). Second step is to blend a whole lemon fruit with a cup of hot water and drink it for about 1-3 months first thing before food and cancer would disappear, research by Maryland College of Medicine says, it's 1000 times better than chemotherapy. (3). Third step is to drink 3 spoonfuls of organic coconut oil, morning and night and cancer would disappear, you can choose any of the two therapies after avoiding sugar. Ignorance  is no excuse. Let everyone around you know, it's a sacrilege for anyone this day to die of cancer; God bless.
