Good morning God’s people here’s a story for you this morning called “ NEVER STOP PRAYING “
 Miss Esther leaned back in her chair and looked over at Marshall Phil. “Marshall Phil, have I ever told you about the first time my granddaughter went to church?” Marshall Phil said, “No ma’am, I don’t believe you have.” Miss Esther smiled. “She didn’t wanna go - thought church wasn’t for her. But I kept praying. Sunday after Sunday, then one morning she finally came with me.” Marshall nodded. “Sounds like the Lord was already tugging at her heart.” “Oh, He was. She heard that Jesus loved her and gave His life for her. I looked over during the invitation and saw tears on her cheeks, then she walked down - and that morning she trusted Christ as her Savior.” “She wasn’t perfect overnight, none of us are, but she was different. She wanted to pray, to read her Bible, to follow Him. She was baptized soon after and started giving her whole life to Jesus.” Marshall said softly, “Somebody reading this might be praying for a loved one right now.” Miss Esther nodded. Then let me say this: Don’t stop praying. Don’t stop inviting. Don’t give up. Nobody is beyond the reach of Jesus Christ. Sometimes one invitation to church can become the start of a brand new life. Keep loving them, keep trusting God. Acts 16:31 KJV “Believe in the Lord Jesus Christ and you will be saved.” Everything we do at Phil413 Ministry and Phil 413 Radio points back to Jesus Christ. As the radio station grows, our prayer is not just for a bigger station, but for more lives to be reached with the gospel. Please pray for us, help us spread the word, and share this with someone who needs it today. Phil 413 Ministry and Phil413 Radio, phil413radio.com, Hope starts here.
Have a blessed day everyone and tell someone about Jesus Christ thanks for reading
