Assurance in Prayer, Part 3 (The Prayer Motivator Devotional #208)

Our prayer motivator verse from the Word of God today is philippians 4:19 which reads: "But my God shall supply all your need according to his riches in glory by Christ Jesus."

Our prayer motivator quote today is from William Carey. He said: "Prayer—secret, fervent, believing prayer—lies at the root of all personal godliness."

Our prayer motivator devotional today is part 3 of our series titled "ASSURANCE IN PRAYER" from Dr. John R. Rice.

How strange it is that some people learn only the letter of the Bible and never get the Spirit's message.

John R. Rice tells the following story: Several years ago a good man sold Bibles in a revival campaign I conducted. He had read the Bible through each year for 22 years, he told me, and at that time was reading the New Testament through each month. I feel sure he was a sincere, good man. Yet he told me he had not yet decided about whether a saved person already possessed everlasting life so that he could never be lost, or not. And when we spoke of the second coming of Christ, he was not sure whether he was a premillennialist or not; and he thought perhaps one must be baptized to be saved. He had read the Bible many, many times, but got only the letter.
