God's Mighty Men I have been doing some quiet time in my Sun room this morning and after a call from a great friend Steve W. it has me praying about being able to turn my problems over to Jesus.
The scripture verse that I have been praying on for a while is:
Mark 9:19: “You unbelieving generation,” Jesus replied, “How long shall I stay with you? How long shall I put up with you? Bring the boy to me.”
When you read the rest of the verses in this Chapter – the Disciples were doing everything they could to help this person – but nothing was working… But Jesus’s reply is – why have you not brought him to me?? Great Question! Why have I not taken my problems to him?
At the same time during my Quiet time this morning – Jeremy Camp’s song of “Same Power” was being played (Lyrics below) and it hit home really hard. I have the Power to overcome obstacles in my life but the biggest person in the way is ME. It is only Jesus working through me that I can have this Power – I must first place all of me at His feet and turn it all over to Him. So as the verse above states – I must bring the Boy (That would be ME) to Jesus and believe that he has the Power to HEAL my unbelief. When I have done that then I can really turn my Boys over to Him and believe that His Healing will protect and take care of them. My prayer would be that I can do this – it is through prayer and belief that I can take it all to Jesus.
Have you brought the boy/girl to Him?

If you can google the song “Same Power” from Jeremy Camp – it is great to listen too.
I can see
Waters raging at my feet
I can feel
The breath of those surrounding me
I can hear
The sound of nations rising up
We will not be overtaken
We will not be overcome
I can walk
Down this dark and painful road
I can face
Every fear of the unknown
I can hear
All God’s children singing out
We will not be overtaken
We will not be overcome
The same power that rose Jesus from the grave
The same power that commands the dead to wake
Lives in us, lives in us
The same power that moves mountains when He speaks
The same power that can calm a raging sea
Lives in us, lives in us
He lives in us, lives in us
We have hope
That His promises are true
In His strength
There is nothing we can’t do
Yes, we know
There are greater things in store
We will not be overtaken
We will not be overcome
Greater is He that is living in me
He’s conquered our enemy
No power of darkness
No weapon prevails
We stand here in victory
