Isaiah 55:10 – 11 (NASB)

“For as the rain and the snow come down from heaven,

And do not return there without watering the earth

And making it produce and sprout,

And providing seed to the Sower and bread to the eater;

11 So will My word be which goes out of My mouth.

It will not return to Me empty,

Without accomplishing what I desire,

And without succeeding in the purpose for which I sent it.

Have you ever sat around and tried to talk yourself into or out of something you were supposed to do. Procrastination is a difficult thing to overcome. Most of us have faced it from time to time.

We feel impressed to share the Gospel with someone but we wait and they walk off and we miss an opportunity. If you have done that in the past do not allow Satan to beat you up over it set in your spirit that next time you will act.

We want to wait for the right thing to say or right moment. I heard Alan Jackson of Alan Jackson Ministries talk about praying for someone. He said a simple one sentence prayer such as “God help my friend to _________ ______ ______ ______. Whatever it might be then move on do not stand around and wait for their approval just pray and move on. I am going to give this a try.

Even if we get it wrong, God will clean it up. The only unanswered prayer is the one never prayed.

God’s idea is that we do something for the kingdom.

God Bless.
