God can let us go through or put us in a spot where Christ can shine through our troubles so that others can see and come to know. See Christ in us.
We tend to pray for avoidance instead of impact. Why? It’s very short sighted. Prayer of Avoidance means we are willing to give up being part of the victory.
Let us instead pray for impact. Examine with us the the prayers of avoidance and the prayers of impact.
Scriptures: Acts 12; Matthew 26:36-46
