Patience and Steadfast Faith


Though our circumstances change from day to day, hour to hour and minute by minute; our God is the same. His mercy is the same and his power is beyond our human belief. He is always a God of miracles and answered prayer.

Isaiah 40:7-8
The grass withers and the flowers fall, because the breath of the Lord blows on them. Surely the people are grass. The grass withers and the flowers fall but the word of our God stands forever.

The prayers that have gone forth on behalf of each child, mother, family and employee is heard. God understands exactly what we want and will impart His exact will in our lives. Even if we don't know what to pray, he knows what to do. Now, the hardest part, is to rest patiently in Him. This strengthens us as individuals and in our partnership. We delight in seeing God at work, actually answering our prayers and seeing how He is exacting our lives.


Romans 8:24-27
For in this hope we were saved. but hope that is seen is no hope at all. Who hopes for what he already has? But if we hope for what we do not yet have, we wait for it patiently. In the same way, the Spirit helps us in our weakness. We do not know what we ought to pray for, but the Spirit himself intercedes for us with groans that words cannot express. And he who searches our hearts knows the mind of the Spirit, because the Spirit intercedes for the saints in accordance with God's will.


We thank you, Heavenly Father, for your miracles. We praise you for your majestic power and for your knowledge of us before we were born. We are grateful to know every child conceived has been planned for before conception. You wrote that script and we delight in your consideration and detail for us - even to every hair on our heads, and every home we will visit. You already knew where we would go and for how long. We receive this and we rebuke any confusion or deceit with which the enemy interferes. We rebuke him in our birth mothers lives as they move toward healing and restoration in your mercies. We rebuke him in our adoptive families as they groan and agonize their desires and longings. We rebuke him in trying to throw so much confusion in the way of your leaders and saints, that we might not trust in your complete and absolute perfect plans. Though we proceed with caution in our daily lives and works, we boldly claim your power and authority over us all, and thank you for what is coming next!! In the mighty name of our savior Christ Jesus, Amen
