Say your prayer, O heart of mine, Your God can do much more than you can ask. Launch out and draw your strength from His love-filled store. Trust Him with everything; begin today and find the joy that comes when Jesus has His way in your life.
We must keep on praying and waiting upon the Lord, until the sound of a mighty rain is heard. There is no reason why we should not ask for large things; and without doubt we shall get large things if we ask in faith, and have the courage to wait with patient perseverance upon Him, meantime doing those things which lie within our power to do.
We cannot create the wind or set it in motion, but we can set our sails to catch it when it comes; we cannot make the electricity, but we can stretch the wire along upon which it is to run and do its work; we cannot, in a word, control the Spirit, but we can so place ourselves before the Lord, and so do the things He has asked us do, that we will come under the influence and power of His mighty power. Cannot the same wonders be done now as of old? Where is the God of Elijah? He is waiting for Elijah to call on Him…”
James 5:17
Elijah was a human being, even as we are. He prayed earnestly that it would not rain, and it did not rain on the land for three and a half years.
