PRAYER - "Doubtful Prayers Every request we make of God has to be made with genuine expectation that He will grant it. Prayer without faith is little more than a pointless monologue. If you want something from God, believe He will give it, or don't bother asking. God is infinitely capable and abundantly willing to grant our petitions. James 1:6-7 - "...ask in faith, nothing wavering. For he that wavereth is like a wave of the sea driven with the wind and tossed. For let not that man think that he shall receive any thing of the Lord." PRINCIPALS - "Cain and Abel" Firstborn human on earth was a murderer. How could it be? Cain gave a freewill offering to God; select produce from his crops. His brother, Abel, followed suit, sacrificing an animal from his flock. God loved Abel's blood sacrifice, but not Cain's produce. Cain was furious. God said, "if you do well, you will be accepted." If not, sin lies at the door. Cain paid no attention to God's warning admonition. People get crazy when they ignore God. Genesis 4:8 - "...Cain rose up against Abel his brother, and slew him."
PRINCIPLES - "Afflictions" Job is famous for having endured his affliction. In the end he prospered above and beyond everything he lost. But those were only the temporal rewards. In eternity, the saints of God will be rewarded infinitely. Just one hour in God's heaven will instantly convince us that every single difficulty we ever faced was more than worth the cost. But we will have far more than one hour -- all eternity! 2 Corinthians 4:17 - "For our light affliction, which is but for a moment, worketh for us a far more exceeding and eternal weight of glory." PROPHECIES - "Abraham's Posterity" God told Abraham that his seed would be as countless as the stars. Without doubt, there have been millions of Jews born throughout the centuries since that prophecy. But wait! All born-again believers in Jesus Christ; "...they which are of faith, the same are the children of Abraham," Galatians 3:7. That adds many millions more! God keeps His promises. Genesis 15:5 - "And he brought him forth abroad, and said, Look now toward heaven, and tell the stars, if thou be able to number them: and he said unto him, So shall thy seed be."
