Crying Out
The Power of tears in our prayers. Prayers that God must answer
The Power of tears in our prayers.
Prayers that God must answer.
There are so many things that alerts the reader of the Bible to the tenderness of God when it comes to our tears. For instance, the bible says that he collects the tears of his people in a bottle, and he tracks their pain. It is obvious that God is not in Masochist who enjoys the pain and tears of his people, but that God is a God who pays attention to their tears and pain.
So, in this book, I take you through the journey of why God is a God that pays attention to our tears. I show you scriptural proof and backing, establishing the fact that our tears are a different level of prayer and that is why God pays attention to them. I show you how Jesus’ tears marked a different level of his prayer. Hebrews 7 talks about Jesus being a man of tears. He not only prayed with tears, but he cried with a loud voice in his prayers.
And then I take us through the scriptures showing you the different kinds of tears, the source of tears and why heaven pays attention to tears. I show several stories in the word of God where men and women dried out to God, and why we should constantly allow ourselves to express our pain and tears before God.
Crying out is Henry when there is 24th book, and the 14th on prayer. Henry is the lead pastor of Jesus house international come on a ministry he founded 28 years ago Henry travels around the world with the gospel of revival. It is his passion to lead and teach the church and what revival is, and how it can be attracted.
One of the most powerful and loving attributes of God that Christians have yet to understand and utilize to the fullest is the fact that God says of Himself that He counts the tears of those He loves. In Psalm 56:8 the word of God records that God measures our tears as he saves them in a bottle. Think of a God who so loves that He watches, counts, and stores every tear that you cry. Wouldn’t that automatically tell you that when we cry out to God from the depths of sincere pain, and in prayers, He is naturally tended to hear us? I wonder why this secret is lost on Christians and prayer warriors.
“In the same way the Spirit [comes to us and] helps us in our weakness. We do not know what prayer to offer or how to offer it as we should, but the Spirit Himself [knows our need and at the right time] intercedes on our behalf with sighs and groanings too deep for words.”
Romans 8:26 AMP
Here, the Bible tells us that the Spirit of God helps our inability to connect better with God, by praying through us with groanings that cannot be uttered. In the real sense of it, groanings that cannot be uttered are another form of crying out. So, what the Bible is saying is that the spirit will help our inability to pray, by praying through us, by crying. Think about that for a moment. When we hear the spirit of God praying through us, which is when we hear ourselves praying in the Holy Ghost, the reason we pray words that are not completely uttered is because the spirit of God is interrupted by his crying, so his words are altered. Just as we humans cannot speak fluently when we are crying, the spirit himself speaks gibberish when he is crying. What that means is that the spirit of God is showing us that the art of crying is probably the ultimate form of praying.
“Be like newborn babies, crying out for spiritual milk that will help you grow into salvation 3 if you have tasted and found the Lord to be good. 1Pt 2:2 The Voice Translation
