Lord, thank You for hearing our prayers and answering them. You have shown us the power in prayer. Holy Spirit, build our prayer life to what it should be. Remind us to pray immediately when the opportunity presents. Don’t allow us to brush it off or be too busy. Lord, let our prayers be sincere and fervent in Your name and authority, according to the good and perfect will of the Father. Amen.
“‘Remember now, O LORD, I pray, how I have walked before You in truth and with a loyal heart, and have done what was good in Your sight.’ And Hezekiah wept bitterly. And it happened, before Isaiah had gone out into the middle court, that the word of the LORD came to him, saying, ‘Return and tell Hezekiah the leader of My people, “Thus says the LORD, the God of David your father: ‘I have heard your prayer, I have seen your tears; surely I will heal you. On the third day you shall go up to the house of the LORD. And I will add to your days fifteen years.'”‘” (2 Kings 20:3-6 NKJV)
