...Whatever you ask for in prayer, believe
that you have received it, and it will be yours. ~Mark 11:24 (NIV)
“Faith in a prayer-hearing God will make a
prayer-loving Christian.” - Andrew Murray
Mark 11:24 is one of the most powerful verses in the
Bible. It puts no limits on God. It puts no limits on what you can ask for. It simply
says, “Whatever you ask for in prayer, believe that you have received it, and
it will be yours.” It does not say it might be yours. It does not say it could
be yours. It says it WILL be yours. So what are you praying about?
