John 6: 22-29
[After Jesus had fed the five thousand men, his disciples saw him walking on the sea.] The next day, the crowd that remained across the sea saw that there had been only one boat there, and that Jesus had not gone along with his disciples in the boat, but only his disciples had left. Other boats came from Tiberias near the place where they had eaten the bread when the Lord gave thanks. When the crowd saw that neither Jesus nor his disciples were there, they themselves got into boats and came to Capernaum looking for Jesus. And when they found him across the sea they said to him, "Rabbi, when did you get here?" Jesus answered them and said, "Amen, amen, I say to you, you are looking for me not because you saw signs but because you ate the loaves and were filled. Do not work for food that perishes but for the food that endures for eternal life, which the Son of Man will give you. For on him the Father, God, has set his seal." So they said to him, "What can we do to accomplish the works of God?" Jesus answered and said to them, "This is the work of God, that you believe in the one he sent."
Dawg's thought:
Today's prayer intention is for the grandfather of a friend of mine who went into the hospital yesterday after an accident with a power-saw, for his recovery.
I couldn't sleep last night so waking up this morning was quite a challenge. In my tiredness, I knew that I needed to get a little help, so I stopped off at 7-Eleven to pick up a 20 oz. cup of coffee. It was exactly what I needed in order to get focuses on what I needed to accomplish today.
Throughout our day, we are bombarded with acts that are not the work of God. Our senses are attacked with things that challenge the work of God. Satan bombards us so much that we grow tired and weary.
As Satan continues to attack each of us, we must remember to stop in to your nearest "quiet place" and pick up a seven pack of prayer (spiritual caffeine). There are five different flavors to choose from:
Prayer of blessing and adoration
Prayer of petition
Prayer of intercession
Prayer of thanksgiving
Prayer of praise
Some packs of prayers include all five! (Can you guess which form of prayer includes all five?) The best part is that this special offer is your for FREE with unlimited usage, but you better act fast before you begin slacking on job. Take care and God Bless.
