CHANGE LIVES

The book of Tobit is
NOT a historical book=
It IS and extended PARABLE
That explains the SPIRITUAL TRUTHS
Of life
“My love-get up-
Let us pray and BEG our Lord
To have MERCY on us.........” Tobit 8:4
Today we read about Tobit's son=
Tobiah=who is ANXIOUS to get married
So Tobit SENDS him-
ACCOMPANIED by the angel=Raphael=
To Tobit's relative-Raguel-
Who has a BEAUTIFUL DAUGHTER-
By the name of Sarah
Raguel AGREES to LET Sarah
Marry Tobiah-but he has
Some BAD NEWS for Tobiah
Sarah has been married-
SEVEN times before
And EACH time an attempt
Was made to CONSUMMATE the marriage
The man was STRUCK DEAD
The POWER OF PRAYER
The power TO CHANGE LIVES
So Tobiah and Sarah get MARRIED-
BUT before they
TRY to consummate the marriage
They KNEEL DOWN
To OFFER a beautiful PRAYER to God
FOR BLESSINGS
In the MORNING-they are asleep
In EACH OTHER'S arms
What a story
What a WONDERFUL TESTIMONY
To the POWER of PRAYER
What MIRACLE do you need?
HOW CAN prayer CHANGE your life?
“The Lord
Has HEARD my cry for MERCY
The Lord-
ACCEPTS MY PRAYER” Psalm 6:9
“The Lord
Is FAR from the wicked
But he HEARS the PRAYER
Of the righteous” Proverbs 15:29
“If you BELIEVE-you will receive
WHATEVER you ask for
In prayer” Matthew 21:22
The LORD has CHANGED my life
From ONE of trying to do
Everything by MYSELF
To one of DEPENDING-on God
Family-friends-churches-and
TRUSTING THE LORD
My life-has been-
CHANGED through PRAYER
And all of my needs are FULFILLED
“IF you really CHANGE your ways-
And your actions-
And deal with each other
….............” Jeremiah 7:6
YES-I have CHANGED my ways=
I have TURNED to the Lord
I PRAY to him daily=and PRAISE him=
And GIVE THANKS to him
The Lord has CHANGED
My life=from what was IMPOSSIBLE=
To WHAT IS POSSIBLE

Your life? What TESTIMONY
CAN YOU GIVE?
Or=HOW can it change your life?
TRY IT and see
In the name of GOD the Father-
And Jesus OUR LORD
