“We simply invoke His presence, then invite Him into our hearts. He shows us our hearts. In prayer for the healing of memories, we simply ask our Lord to come present to that place where we were so wounded (or perhaps wounded another). Forgiving others, and receiving forgiveness, occurs. In prayer for the healing of the heart from fears, bitterness, etc., we see primal fears as well as lesser ones dealt with immediately: those fears that the sufferer often has not been aware of, never been able to name—they only know that their lives have been seriously restricted and shaped because of them. 3”

“A.W. Tozer writes: God wills that we should push on into His presence and live our whole life there. This is to be known to us in conscious experience. It is more than a doctrine to be held; it is a life to be enjoyed every moment of every day. (The Pursuit of God, p. 34)”

“Pray About It: How often we pray for God to remove our problems when God has designed these problems to be vehicles for His strength. Whereas in the past we’ve prayed for days equal to our strength, today we must pray for power equal to our days. Remember today His strength will be made perfect in your weakness. Prayer imparts the power to walk and not faint. OSWALD CHAMBERS”

“I will give thanks to you, LORD, with all my heart; I will tell of all your wonderful deeds. I will be glad and rejoice in you; I will sing the praises of your name, O Most High. My enemies turn back; they stumble and perish before you. (Ps. 9: 1–3 NLT)”
