Text Blessings

I exhort therefore, that, first of all, supplications, prayers, intercessions, and giving of thanks, be made for all men;

1 Timothy 2:1

Many times throughout any given week, I will receive a text message from a friend that says something like this:  "Just wanted you to know that I am praying for you today!  I love you and hope you have a blessed day!"  Then emoji hearts and kisses fill the rest of the text message.

Talk about a huge dose of encouragement!

There is just something about knowing that someone is praying for you that allows your heart to be full!

And because such an action blessed me, I in turn, find myself sending out 'Text Blessings' to those ladies I pray for during the week as well!

Just yesterday I received a response to such a text, and it said this:  "Do you know that I wondered if someone was praying for me, because I have had such peace, joy and closeness to the Lord today!  Thank you!"

What a blessing!  It's the power of prayer!  It's edifying one another and lifting each other up before the Lord!

Our Friend who sticketh closer than a brother is praying for us too.  Hebrews 7:25 tells us that Jesus is constantly interceding on our behalf.  

Knowing my Saviour prays for me, motivates me to pray for others~

    But that's just me!
