Youth Blog: Answered Prayer + Your DNA

Answered Prayer

7/8/2022

Job 22:27- You will pray to him, and he will hear you, and you will fulfill your vows.

Ephesians 6:18- And pray in the Spirit on all occasions with all kinds of prayers and requests. With this in mind, be alert and always keep on praying for all the Lord’s people.

Jesus wants to answer our prayers. He wants to hear our requests, our concerns, what we may be going through, our love for him, etc. Prayer helps us build a relationship with God and having a relationship with him is important. You shouldn’t want your prayers to hit the ceiling and not even reach God’s ears. God wants to answer our prayers, but we have to make sure that nothing is blocking our prayers being heard.

Your DNA

7/1/2022

God created us.

Genesis 1:27: So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them.

In this scripture it tells us God created us. We often overlook and don’t fully understand that we have God’s DNA. Think about it, just like you have your parents' DNA because they "created" you then it’s the same principle with Jesus.

God is our Father, and he created us and then sent us down into our mother's womb. We will never be satisfied without Him. Why? Because Jesus is in our DNA, and we will forever be longing for him if we don’t choose to serve him.
