After this, Jesus, knowing that all things had already been accomplished, to fulfill the Scripture, said, “I am thirsty.”
A jar full of sour wine was standing there; so they put a sponge full of the sour wine upon a branch of hyssop and brought it up to His mouth.
(John 19:28?29) ...
A prayer offered with joy and gratitude Turns into beautiful incense And comes up before God. God accepts such a fragrant prayer And fulfills that heart’s desire.
A person fully loaded with worries and anxieties Comes to feel discouraged, Fails to receive an answer to prayers, And loses the strength to pray. Evils harbored in heart: resentment and complaint Stop prayers from being answered.
God wants His beloved children To offer a prayer with good fragrance in heart. Even an incomplete person can receive A precious gift of answer from God When they try to live in the words of truth And offer the incense of joy and gratitude.
“If I regard wickedness in my heart, the LORD will not hear.” (Psalm 66:18)
