Then shall ye call upon me, and ye shall go and pray unto me, and I will hearken unto you. (Jeremiah 29:12)
And many charged him that he should hold his peace: but he cried the more a great deal, Thou son of David, have mercy on me. (Mark 10:48)
Dr. Roberto Miranda

It is important that our prayers express a high level of intensity, commitment and focus.

Passionate prayer, desperate action and specific petition are the three essential elements for a successful cry to God. When we are in a difficult situation and seek God's help, we should concentrate our faith and present our requests with intensity and clarity. Sometimes, God allows delays and silences to purify our souls and make our requests more sincere. The story of Blind Bartimaeus in Mark 10:46-52 illustrates how passion, action, and petition can provoke a favorable response from God. Bartimaeus cried out to Jesus with intensity, violated social norms to get his attention and declared his request for sight. Jesus responded positively to Bartimaeus' faith and specific request, granting him sight instantly. Read more...

Efigenia Vidal : When we pray from the heart, we do it in such a way that everything flows, and even if we don't get a quick answer, God is working. Many times I tell myself: Lord, even if I didn't hear you, I know you are working. I have been praying for years to see changes in my family, but time and will are God's. Because for Him, nothing is difficult. I must confirm that His mercy has brought about changes in me, because He knows well when desires come from the depths of the heart and when they don't. Thank you Pastor Miranda. May the Lord bless you.
