“And when Jesus saw that a crowd came running together, he rebuked the unclean spirit, saying to it, “You mute and deaf spirit, I command you, come out of him and never enter him again.” And after crying out and convulsing him terribly, it came out, and the boy was like a corpse, so that most of them said, “He is dead.” But Jesus took him by the hand and lifted him up, and he arose. And when he had entered the house, his disciples asked him privately, “Why could we not cast it out?” And he said to them, “This kind cannot be driven out by anything but prayer.””‭‭Mark‬ ‭9:25-29‬ ‭ESV‬‬

All,
This sticks out because Jesus says, “anything but prayer”. How powerful do we see prayer? I know we ask for prayers of people when they are sick, but do we pray WITH friends when they are in despair? Anxiety? Worried? Prayer acknowledges the exchanged life and we get to see the Holy Spirit’s power. Please pray that we and our friends go to God in prayer today at troubling moments(and good moments) and trust His outcome. Please pray for Ken and Paul’s group.
