Philippians 4:6 "Be careful for nothing; but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your request be made known unto God."
Make your request known unto God! You say, but he knows all why do I need to make my request known? We need to pray and ask for forgiveness, we need to pray and give thanks, we need to pray for others, we need to obey the word of God and pray without ceasing. That is why we make our request known unto God.
As you know I've not been on much this month, we were to move in June then it was delayed to the middle of the June then the end and Finally the weekend of the 4th of July we were able to move. Sometimes I wonder if we were suppose to even wait longer..... You may ask why, wait longer? I know all things happen for a reason, but for those who didn't know the last day we were moving things out, I fell and injured my foot to the point that I'm still not unpacked and settled completely into our new home. Then again I see it as we asked for 2 yrs for the Lord to supply a home for us and he did. Our church family have been such a blessing in so many areas. Which they may not of been able to be the blessing they were if hadn't of moved. Then this week found out a few things that has made us ask did we "push" God into giving us a home? We know that God gives us the desires of our heart. We are very thankful for what he's provided for us we've made our new request made knows to God. We, the Seavey Family, will just have to wait and see what God has in store, he provided the home, He'll provided all the needs that come with a home.
Our church had some huge blessing that we prayed fervently for this month. First being VBS! We prayed for a good group to attend and the Lord gave us 51 on different nights!! Not only that but there was 8 precious young people accept Christ as their Saviour! Then to top it off he provided the finances for everything that is needed for running a VBS. Then this past Sunday 3, yes I said 3 of the young people who were saved at VBS came to church and we were able to hold a Jr Church last week!! Now I say we serve a God who no matter what the personal trials are the blessings of serving him are far GREATER! So when the verse says, "...in every thing by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your request be made known...." Through Prayer, supplication and thanksgiving we made our request known and God answered!
So friend be careful for nothing BUT Pray no matter what! I'll not go into all that has happened this month just because some isn't for me share publicly. However, When God opens a door, step through. If he closes the door don't question it just cont. to pray and wait on him. As humans we tend to question things, and may I say I'm guilty of that, however we just need to all remember God is in control and he knows our tomorrows !
