Fasting and Prayer

So I say to you: Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you. ¹⁰ For everyone who asks receives; he who seeks finds; and to him who knocks, the door will be opened.

¹¹ ”Which of you fathers, if your son asks for a fish, will give him a snake instead? ¹² Or if he asks for an egg, will give him a scorpion? ¹³ If you then, though you are evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your Father in heaven give the Holy Spirit to those who ask him!” (Luke 11:9-12 NIV)

Today, our yahoo group will be fasting and praying for the Ethiopia program. Please join me as we pray that God would remove stumbling blocks that stand in the way of children passing court and being referred to families in the US. God tells us to ask and promises us good gifts in return.

Please pray for the following after you are done reading this blog entry. If you don't know how to pray, just use the words below!

Father, you promise to give us good gifts when we ask you. You command us to ask, seek, and knock. We are asking you to remove those hurdles and stumbling blocks that stand in the way of the many children waiting to pass court, including Micah David Kulp. We ask that you would gather all of the necessary paperwork and guide those who represent these children in court. Help MOWA to be favorable in choosing to connect these families with their forever families. We also ask that you would enable more children to be referred to waiting families. Smooth this process and help it to move more quickly than it has in the past.

We ask this in your name,
Amen

We believe our God can move mountains and is mighty to save.
