Thoughtless and selfish words and actions may indeed be something that you think you're getting away with. Of course that's doubtful. You never get away with anything do you, in this life?

Opposition can't be licked by your human smartness — don't try it. Instead, turn it over to your blessed Lord.

You can pray in a manner that will free up the Word of God to get into people's hearts — yes, you can.

As you pray for yourself and for others, remember that this is a battle. God is able to open up things for you so the Word of God gets out.

When you pray, just remember God reserves the right to determine how the prayer will be answered.
