1. HARVEST FOR PRAYERS

Psalm 126 : 5 - 6

5. Those who sow with tears will reap with songs of joy.

6. Those who go out weeping, carrying seed to sow,

will return with songs of joy, carrying sheaves with them.

1 Samuel 1 : 10 - 20

10. In her deep anguish Hannah prayed to the Lord, weeping bitterly.

11. And she made a vow, saying, “Lord Almighty, if you will only look on your servant’s misery and remember me, and not forget your servant but give her a son, then I will give him to the Lord for all the days of his life, and no razor will ever be used on his head.”

12. As she kept on praying to the Lord, Eli observed her mouth.

13. Hannah was praying in her heart, and her lips were moving but her voice was not heard. Eli thought she was drunk

14. and said to her, “How long are you going to stay drunk? Put away your wine.”

15. “Not so, my lord,” Hannah replied, “I am a woman who is deeply troubled. I have not been drinking wine or beer; I was pouring out my soul to the Lord.

16. Do not take your servant for a wicked woman; I have been praying here out of my great anguish and grief.”

17. Eli answered, “Go in peace, and may the God of Israel grant you what you have asked of him.”

18. She said, “May your servant find favor in your eyes.” Then she went her way and ate something, and her face was no longer downcast.

19. Early the next morning they arose and worshiped before the Lord and then went back to their home at Ramah. Elkanah made love to his wife Hannah, and the Lord remembered her.

20. So in the course of time Hannah became pregnant and gave birth to a son. She named him Samuel,[b] saying, “Because I asked the Lord for him.”

1 Chronicles 4 : 9 - 10

9. Jabez was more honorable than his brothers. His mother had named him Jabez, saying, “I gave birth to him in pain.”

10. Jabez cried out to the God of Israel, “Oh, that you would bless me and enlarge my territory! Let your hand be with me, and keep me from harm so that I will be free from pain.” And God granted his request.

Genesis 32 : 24 - 28

24. So Jacob was left alone, and a man wrestled with him till daybreak.

25. When the man saw that he could not overpower him, he touched the socket of Jacob’s hip so that his hip was wrenched as he wrestled with the man.

26. Then the man said, “Let me go, for it is daybreak.”

But Jacob replied, “I will not let you go unless you bless me.”

27. The man asked him, “What is your name?” “Jacob,” he answered.

28. Then the man said, “Your name will no longer be Jacob, but Israel, because you have struggled with God and with humans and have overcome.”

John 15 : 16

16. You did not choose me, but I chose you and appointed you so that you might go and bear fruit—fruit that will last—and so that whatever you ask in my name the Father will give you.

John 15 : 7

7. If you remain in me and my words remain in you, ask whatever you wish, and it will be done for you.

John 14 : 13 - 14

13. And I will do whatever you ask in my name, so that the Father may be glorified in the Son.

14. You may ask me for anything in my name, and I will do it.

John 16 : 23 - 24

23. In that day you will no longer ask me anything. Very truly I tell you, my Father will give you whatever you ask in my name.

24. Until now you have not asked for anything in my name. Ask and you will receive, and your joy will be complete.

Matthew 7 : 11

11. If you, then, though you are evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your Father in heaven give good gifts to those who ask him!

Ephesians 3 : 20 - 21

20. Now to him who is able to do immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine, according to his power that is at work within us,

21. to him be glory in the church and in Christ Jesus throughout all generations, for ever and ever! Amen.

Romans 8 : 32
