(St John 14:13-14) says, “And whatsoever ye shall ask in my name that I will do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son. If ye shall ask any thing in my name, I will do it.”
What a wonderful promise Jesus gave to us. The purpose of the Christian’s power of attorney, it glorifies God to answer all prayers and save, heal, and bless all men spiritually and materially. But He cannot do so unless they ask in faith, nothing wavering. Please read Hebrews 11:6, James 1:5-8
and Mark 11:22-24.

I hope that you take the time to look up each verse. Do not just take my
word, but study God’s word. Christ entrusted us enough to give us His
Power of Attorney. Now what will you do with it?
Father God, Thank you for entrusting me to continue the great works that You began. In Jesus Name I Pray. Amen and Amen
