When you pray, you tap into the supernatural world.  Through the Holy Spirit, you can pray with supernatural intelligence that goes beyond the knowledge of man.  Romans 8:26 says that when we don’t know how to pray, the “Holy Spirit also helpeth our infirmities:  for we know not what we should pray for as we ought:  but the Spirit itself maketh intercession for us with groanings which cannot be uttered.”  Our “infirmities” include our mental capacity.  Regardless of how brilliant you thing you are, you are playing in a sand box compared to the genius of all-knowing God.

When I was going to seminary, every weekend I would travel somewhere to preach.  On one particular occasion I preached all day Sunday in Oklahoma and was driving back to Dallas late that night.  I had to drive all night in order to get back in time for school.  I went to sleep while driving and woke up when I heard a loud noise.  Evidently I was driving quite fast and I hit one of those old country railroad tracks that has a swayback.  It launched my car up into the air.  I was airborne, if you will, hanging on to the steering wheel.  When my eyes opened, right in front of me was a Texaco tanker coming toward me.  Miraculously, my car landed, in my lane, on all four wheels—and brother, when it did, I was wide- awake all the way back to Dallas.

As I walked into my dorm room, the phone rang.  It was my mother.  She asked me where I was at 3:00 that morning.  I had looked at the clock and knew that was the exact moment my car hit the road safely.  I told her I was driving back form Oklahoma.  That didn’t quite satisfy my mother.  She was like the FBI; she knew what I was doing behind the door when it was locked.  She said, “At 2:30 this morning the Lord woke me up.  I began to pray for you, because I knew your life was handing in the balance.  And at ten minutes after three the burden lifted and everything was all right.  Now I’m asking you again, where were you at 3:00?”  So I told her the story.

You can pray with supernatural knowledge when you have a prayer relationship with God.  Answered prayer is not a miracle; it’s a law.  When you take an ice tray and fill it with water and place it in a freezer, if the temperature is 32 degrees or less, the water turns to ice.  That is not a miracle.  That is a natural law.  It’s the only thing that can happen.  When you meet God’s conditions in prayer, you will get an answer.  It is not a miracle; it is the only thing that can happen.  John 14:14 says, “If ye shall ask any thing in my name, I will do it.”  Matthew 7:8 says, “For everyone that asketh receiveth.”  Prayer is not a mystery.  Answered prayer is not a miracle.  It is the law of God.

Saber quiénes somos es muy importante para nuestras vidas. La forma de la que pensamos salir de problemas e inclusive hasta como reaccionamos, nos describe fácilmente. Mientras nos vamos envejeciendo, atravesamos muchas etapas de nuestras vidas que nos llevan frente a diversas situaciones que no siempre son felices pero que cada vez más terminan por definir nuestro carácter.

Encontrar un modelo perfecto a seguir es algo difícil. Todas las personas tienen errores y son imperfectas. Mas hay solo un perfecto y ese es Jesús. El carácter de Cristo es que cada día deberíamos ir forjando en nuestra vida pera hacer de ella una victoria. Sin importar las circunstancias, si sabemos bien en quien creemos, nada nos podrá afectar.

Cuando recibimos a Jesús en nuestro corazón nuestra identidad cambia y conocemos así, las nuevas personas que somos. Nuestra nueva identidad en Cristo es especial y exitosa. Entre una de ellas están que somos hechos hijos, somos linaje escogido, un pueblo santo, somos victoriosos y él vive en nosotros y nosotros en él.

Saber esto, me ha ayudado mucho para saber cuál debería ser mi actitud ante las diferentes cirscunstancias. En la biblia dice que: "la palabra es escudo a aquellos quienes confían en él". Así que conociendo sus promesas es suficiente para saber que ningún obstáculo puede detener lo que Jesús haya puesto en nosotros a hacer. No van a haber pruebas que no sean más que pequeñas piedras en el camino. Cada vez que tropieces con ellas, sólo notarás qué agigantado va tu paso. Con Jesús todo es posible y nunca hay mal que por bien no venga. =)

Cuando nos anhelos y dediciones son guíadas por él, nunca perderán su propósito. Además, serán las mejores. Este video habla justo de eso: dejar que el tome control.

Acts 4:31—And when they had prayed the place was shaken where they were assembled together.
