Ask The Father Directly 2 Daily Reading How can I curse those whom God has not cursed? How can I condemn those whom the LORD has not condemned? This was what Balaam told King Balak when he had summoned him to pray a curse on the people of Israel. Prayer is a wonderful and powerful tool when used properly. The Scriptures say the effectual fervent prayer of a righteous person has great power and produces wonderful results. Even that prayer is ineffective if it is against God’s will. We can be confident that He hears us whenever we ask for anything that is according to His will. Knowing to ask according to His will when we make our requests, we then know that He will give us what we ask for. When we pray for others, we need to seek the mind of God in the matter, and then pray according to His will. We never know what’s going on in a person’s life. Chances are if God is not hearing their prayers for themselves, He won’t listen to yours either until whatever in that person’s life is confessed and done away with. If anyone of His children is being punished for disobedience, and all of His Children are disciplined (Hebrews 12:8), our prayers won’t reverse it unless they go through the right protocol. “From eternity to eternity I am God. No one can snatch anyone out of My Hand. No one can undo what I have done, says the Lord Almighty.” Passage Numbers 23:7-8 NLT) This was the message Balaam delivered: “Balak summoned me to come from Aram; the king of Moab brought me from the eastern hills. ‘Come,’ he said, ‘curse Jacob for me!Come and announce Israel’s doom.’ But how can I curse those whom God has not cursed? How can I condemn those whom the LORD has not condemned? Passage Isaiah 43:13 (NLT) “From eternity to eternity I am God. No one can snatch anyone out of my hand. No one can undo what I have done.” Passage James 5:16 (NASB) Therefore, confess your sins to one another, and pray for one another so that you may be healed. The effective prayer of a righteous man can accomplish much.
