Prayer and Promises
Insight from Ellen G. White
For all the promises of God are “Yes” in Christ!
—2 CORINTHIANS 1:20
You are to believe that you are his child, that it is your right to claim the promises of his word, your privilege to represent him to the world. — The Review and Herald, April 14, 1891
These short devotions begin with a promise and finish with a prayerful response from the message. Experience more thoughtful prayers and a deeper appreciation of the power of God’s word.
The lessons of Christ were illustrated so clearly that the lowest and most simple-minded could readily comprehend them. Jesus did not employ long and difficult words in His discourses, but used plain language, adapted to the minds of the common people. — Testimonies for the Church Volume 4, p.260
PRAY IN FAITH. “THIS IS THE VICTORY THAT OVERCOMES THE WORLD, EVEN OUR FAITH.” PREVAILING PRAYER IS THE PRAYER OF LIVING FAITH; IT TAKES GOD AT HIS WORD, AND CLAIMS HIS PROMISES.
