how does one pray relentlessly?
it is in the same manner that you are able to meditate day and night on your afflictions that you are able to consecrate yourself in prayer. and don't just wishfully pray... believe in your prayers and in the One who hears and mightily answers them! GUMPTION! Dianne Cabrera GOD is faithful... always that even when we don't deserve to be blessed, HE pours HIS grace anyway, everyday! ----- Forwarded Message ---- From: ivy pedrezuela <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: [email protected]; jei santos <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>; Irish Christine Pedrezuela <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>; miladel faner <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>; pinky manahan <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>; jinky joel <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Monday, December 1, 2008 1:49:25 AM Subject: [worldchangers2010] Fw: [loaners] Fwd: Fw: only hope......... --- On Wed, 11/26/08, Yanee Samson <yayie_samson@ yahoo.com> wrote: From: Yanee Samson <yayie_samson@ yahoo.com> Subject: [loaners] Fwd: Fw: only hope........ .

By her own admission, GMA ( Gloria Macapagal Arroyo ) rightfully assessed that over the last decades; our republic has become one of the weakest, steadily left behind by its more progressive neighbors.' Forty years ago, we were only second to Japan in economic stature, and way ahead of Singapore , Hong Kong , Malaysia , and Thailand . Today, at our present growth rate, it will take us 30 years to get to where Thailand is. 1. A population of 160 Million; 2. Of those, 70 to 90 million (equivalent to our current population) will live below the poverty line; 3. Our national debt is estimated to be at US$200B (compared to US$28B when Marcos fled, and US$53B today); 4. We will be competing, not against Thailand or eve n Vietnam , but against Bangladesh ; 5. We will be the most corrupt nation in Asia , if not in the world (we're already ranked 11th most corrupt nation by Transparency International ) .. The signs are clear. Our nation is headed towards an irr ev! e rsible path of economic decline and moral decadence. It is not for lack of effort. We've seen many men and women of integrity in and out of government, NGOs, church groups & people's organization devote themselves to the task of nation-building, often times against insurmountable odds. But not eve n two people's revolutions, bloodless as they may be, have made a dent in r eve rsing this trend. At best, we have moved one step forward, but three steps backward. We need a force far greater than our collective efforts, as a people, can eve r hope to muster. It is time to move the battle to the spiritual realm. It's time to claim GOD's promise of healing of the land for His people. It's time to gather GOD's people on its knees to pray for the economic recovery and moral reformation of our nation. Is prayer really the answer? Before you dismiss this as just another rambling of a religious fanatic, I'd like you to consider some lessons we can glean from history. England 's ascendancy to world power was preceded by the Reformation, a spiritual revival fueled by intense prayers. The early American settlers built the foundation that would make it the most powerful nation today - a strong faith in GOD and a disciplined prayer life . Throughout its history, and especially at its major turning points, waves of revival and prayer movement swept across the land. In recent times, we see Korea as a nation experiencing revival and in the process producing the largest Christian church in the world today, led by Rev. Paul Yongi Cho. No wonder it has emerged as a strong nation when other economies around it are faltering. Even from a purely secular ! viewpoint, it makes a lot of sense. For here there is genuine humbling & seeking of GOD through prayer, moral reformation necessarily follows. And this, in turn, will lead to general prosperity. YES, we beli eve prayer can make a difference. It's our only hope.. Today, we launch this email brigade, to inform Filipinos from all over the world to pray, as a people, for the economic recovery and moral reformation of our nation. We do not ask for much. We only ask for 5 minutes of your time in a day, to fwd this email to your close friends and relatives. This is the kind of unity which can make a big difference. Of course, if you feel strongly, as I do, about the power of prayer, you can be more involved by starting your own prayer group or prayer center. We have tried people power twice; in both cases, it fell short. Maybe it's time to try prayer power. GOD n eve r fails. Is there hope? YES! We can rely on God's promise, but we have to do our part. If we humble ourselves and pray as a people, GOD will heal our land. By GOD's grace, we may yet see a better future for our children. 'If My people, who are called by My name, will humble themselves and pray, and seek My face, and turn from their wicked ways, then will I hear from Heaven, and will forgive their sins, and will heal their land.'(2 Chronicles 7:14 ). If you care for your children and grandchildren, PLEASE pass this on. .. .. Let's not just abandon the Philippines ________________________________ Get your preferred Email name!
