BETH MOORE BIBLE STUDY WORKBOOK CRACKED

If my prayers werenâ€™t written down, it would be easy for me to forget how God is the True Giver of all Good Gifts.

Iâ€™ve kept journals for years, and itâ€™s amusing to look back and see how hard I prayed for certain things (like a husband!).

And Heâ€™ll speak to our hearts too, if we do not give up.ĭo you write your prayers down? Sometimes we pray so hard about something, but if itâ€™s not written down, we can quickly forget the anguish our souls went through as we waited for Godâ€™s answer. It may seem like God isnâ€™t listening, and that our prayers are merely bouncing off the ceiling.īut God is listening! He chose to answer Danielâ€™s prayer right away through a direct message from Gabriel. Wouldnâ€™t you love it if a messenger from heaven would come tell you right away the insight youâ€™re longing for in your prayers? Sometimes, when we pray, we can almost instantly feel in our hearts the answer is “yes” or â€œno,â€ yet other times, we can do nothing but wait. As soon as you began to pray, an answer was given, which I have come to tell you, for you are highly esteemedâ€ (Daniel 9:22,23). How incredible that in the midst of Danielâ€™s prayer, the angel Gabriel appears to him and says, â€œDaniel, I have now come to give you insight and understanding. This lesson showed me brilliantly how I must pray FIRST. He ends with, â€œO Lord, listen! O Lord, forgive! O Lord, hear and act! For your sake, O my God, do not delay, because your city and your people bear your Nameâ€ (Daniel 9:19 NIV).Īfter studying and discussing this, I realized that in my own life, prayer often comes as a last resort, after Iâ€™ve mulled over a problem, worried for days about it, written in my journal, whined and complained to others about it - THEN I remember, “Oh yeah! I think I’ll pray about it!” Wow - reading through that chapter several times reminded me what urgency there is to Danielâ€™s praying. This weekâ€™s lesson focused on Danielâ€™s prayer in the 9th chapter of the book of Daniel. Itâ€™s true that trivial things can distract us from whatâ€™s important - and sometimes we just need to stop and pray! For us moms in the study, we talked about how the little distractions of daily life can get in the way of our main purpose of teaching and training our children to become more like Christ. â€œFor a minute I thought Iâ€™d have to go back in the house for a spoon to dig it out,â€ she writes.

She said she was leaving her house one day with serious ministry matters on her mind when a gnat landed smack dab on her lip gloss.
