I AM AN 80 YEAR OLD MALE, BORN AGAIN, CHRISTIAN WITH A LOVE FOR JESUS. I DO NOT GET OUT MUCH ANYMORE BUT FIND THAT TELLING PEOPLE ABOUT THE LOVE JESUS HAS FOR THEM IS NOT ONLY WHAT WE ARE SUPPOSED TO DO BUT SOMETHING THAT THE WORLD NEEDS.

"DO YOU KNOW HOW TO STAND?" BY DAVID MCMILLEN

I HAVE WRITTEN BEFORE ABOUT HOW YOU CAN STAND AND AGREE ON SOMETHING YOU HAVE PRAYED FOR. I AM SORRY THAT SOME WERE CONFUSED ABOUT WHAT I MEANT. WHEN I SAY "STAND", I MEANT THE DEFINITION OF "to remain firm or steadfast, as in a cause". I WILL SHOW YOU WHAT I MEAN IN THE BIBLE. PAUL TELLS US IN EPHESIANS 6:13 "Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand." THIS IS WHAT I MEANT. IF YOU HAVE PRAYED, BELIEVED YOU HAVE RECEIVED, THEN STAND.

HAVE YOU BEEN STANDING FOR SOMETHING FOR A LONG TIME? IT MIGHT BE THE SALVATION OF YOUR CHILDREN OR SPOUSE OR PARENTS OR IT COULD BE THAT YOUR HOUSE WOULD BE PAID OFF OR THAT YOU WOULD FIND A GOOD JOB OR JUST ANYTHING. WHEN YOU PRAY, ACCORDING TO GOD'S WORD, AND BELIEVE YOU HAVE RECEIVED IT, THE BIBLE SAYS THAT YOU SHALL HAVE IT. HE DIDN'T SAY YOU "MIGHT" HAVE IT.

SOME THINGS I HAVE PRAYED FOR AND THE HAVE CAME RIGHT AWAY AND THEN I AM STANDING FOR THINGS THAT HAVE BEEN A LONG TIME COMING. THE GOOD THING ABOUT STANDING AND BELIEVING YOU HAVE RECEIVED IS THAT YOU KNOW THAT YOU "SHALL" HAVE IT. THAT IS GOD'S PROMISE IN HIS WORD AND IF IT WASN'T TRUE, HE WOULD NOT HAVE SAID IT. THE MOST IMPORTANT THING IS NOT TO TAKE YOUR EYES OFF JESUS. TRUST IN HIM. DON'T LET THE DEVIL STEEL IT FROM YOU. FEAR IS A BIG PROBLEM A LOT OF PEOPLE HAVE. THEY GET FEARFUL THAT THEY WILL NOT GET IT OR GET IT "IN TIME". GOD HAS NEVER BEEN LATE YET.

TAKING YOUR EYES OFF JESUS AND GETTING INTO FEAR IS BAD. WHEN PETER WAS WALKING ON THE WATER, HE WAS DOING OK UNTIL HE LET FEAR GET IN HIS WAY AND HE TOOK HIS EYES OFF OF JESUS. WE MUST NEVER LET THIS HAPPEN TO US. HE IS ALWAYS THERE FOR US AND LIKE I SAID, HE HAS NEVER BEEN LATE YET. JUST DON'T START PRAYING FOR IT AGAIN BECAUSE THAT MEANS YOU DIDN'T BELIEVE YOU RECEIVED IT IN THE FIRST PLACE. MARK 11:24 SAYS "Therefore I say unto you, What things soever ye desire, when ye pray, believe that ye receive them, and ye shall have them."

IF YOU REALLY WANT TO DO SOMETHING IN ADDITION TO STANDING AND THANKING GOD FOR WHAT YOU HAVE PRAYED FOR, SEE WHAT JESUS SAYS IN MATTHEW 18:19 "Again I say unto you, That if two of you shall agree on earth as touching any thing that they shall ask, it shall be done for them of my Father which is in heaven." FIND YOU A GOOD PRAYER PARTNER (YOUR SPOUSE WOULD BE PERFECT) OR FRIEND AND AGREE WITH HIM/HER "AS TOUCHING ANYTHING". IT DOESN'T GET MUCH CLEARER THAN THIS. USE GOD'S WORD TO FIND THE PROMISES AND STAND ON THEM. LEARN THEM AND CLAIM THEM. THEY ARE YOURS BUT YOU HAVE TO ACCEPT THEM. WHAT GREAT PROMISES THEY ARE AND THEY ARE FOR ALL OF US IF WE WILL JUST SEEK HIM FIRST AND PRAY ACCORDING TO HIS WILL. GET INTO HIS WORD AND REALLY LEARN OF HIM. HE SAYS IN JEREMIAH 29:13 "And ye shall seek me, and find me, when ye shall search for me with all your heart. HE IS WAITING.

GOD BLESS YOU ALL.
