After
Peter denied Jesus three times he realised he had betrayed his Lord and
he wept bitterly. Later when Jesus was resurrected He asked Peter if he
loves Him three times. Peter, probably recalling his earlier denial, in
exasperation he replied, "Lord, you know all things; you know that
I love you." Peter was sincere but it takes the best friend anyone
can find to still trust him with most important possession, His sheep,
particularly His lambs. |

| Prayer & The Body of Christ in Perth | Jesus has made provision for all that we need pertaining to life but often we seem to have a problem of access. My prayer for me and mine and your prayer for you and yours and usually not somebody else’s prayer - is the means of accessing the provision. I believe that when the scriptures tell us that the same spirit dwells within me/you that raised Christ from the dead and that this same spirit will quicken/strengthen my/our/your mortal body by implication this means our prayers will be quickened. If we pray diligently our city of Perth will be changed, the Body of Christ in our city and also in our nation would change. It will become less spotty and without so many blemishes. It will become progressively more glorious and so His Bride will bring Him more glory. If we would pray together – if the various church leaders pray together and submit to one another and prefer one another – if the different churches come together in one accord, in unity, putting aside our petty theological differences and rebuke the spirits of competitiveness and criticism and judgement and condemnation and support one another, esteem one another and love on each other – oh my brother and sister – it will put a smile on the Father’s face and Father, Son and Holy Spirit will be up doing a jig in heaven. |
