To plead for your neighbor–God still intervenes

By: Gabriela Yareliz (based on the NY13 rally)

Oh, that one might plead for a man with God,
As a man pleads for his neighbor! Job 16:21

When we pray for a friend or family member, God hears the intercessory prayer. There are many things in life that happen whether you pray or not. God is always in control. Yet when you pray, you unleash the blessings of heaven. You receive that which you would not have received had you not asked. I have seen this proven in my life, and I thank God because He listens to our prayers.

Pray today in a powerful way; pray for someone else.

God is the God of the impossible, of miracles, and He is waiting for you to ask.

Now this is the confidence we have in Him, that if we ask anything according to His will, He hears us.” 1 John 5:14

It is a part of God’s plan to grant us, in answer to the prayer of faith, that which He would not bestow did we not thus ask.” (The Great Controversy, 525)
