Yesterday I prayed. I thanked God for all my troubles. ( I have been reading: "The Power of Praise" by Merlin Carothers, same author as " From Prison to Praise " )
God is souvereign enough to deal with the mess we get ourselves into. One of my messes is to get overloaded on my credit cards.
Today I got the news that someone wants to by my triplex.
This avoids getting through a real estate agent thus paying comission.
The buyer agrees to borrow from my creditor which lessens my penalty.
If all this goes well, I will have enough money to pay all my credit cards and send donations to an orphan home in Congo and many more projects.
I am sure God will provide.

I don't 'claim' promises. I am don't get into that, because some take it too far. I know one guy who for years claimed a Lincoln Navigator. But, I do have faith that God's promises are yea and amen. If God says it then I believe that He will not fail me, because He hasn't yet. God Bless.

Yeah, I claim John 14:14 all the time.
"You may ask me for anything in my name, and I will do it."
--John 14:14
The first time I asked for a $50 million and within 12 hours the money was wired to my offshore bank account. Since then I've claimed eternal youth, health and....well, let's just say that the hot young ladies can't say no.
John 14:14 -- Works every time.

Peace of mind over a difficult situation. It seemed like it was a tough struggle but now I have peace in my heart. I am learning through life's experiences that it is best to lay matters at Jesus feet and don't worry about it anymore. Whatever happens, it must happen.

They work as well as any wishing, be it on a star or a birthday cake.
all good things come from God, and tragedy is nothing to do with him.

All day every day I claim the gift of faith, it works.

my father was one of the most devout christians, ever
he died early, his god failed him in the promise of a good life, 70 years and 10 more for good behavior
reality often sharply contrasts beliefs and fantasy realms such as christianity

Yes, long life. And so far, it is working.
