Subject: who benefits most from prayer? |
Bible Note: jal, Hey- Thanks for that post; I really think that you are the first person that I have ever agreed with on every point in a post with more than one sentence. :) About blessing God, The bible has a lot to say about this. Look in a concordance under the word 'bless' and you will see the many times that the bible speaks of blessing the Lord. [By the way, some translations, like the NIV, will translate this word for 'bless' as 'praise' which is not wrong, but does not give the full sense of the word. Also, think about the Lord's Supper (communion, eucharist... I don't know what you call it). The cup of the Passover that Jesus used to institute the "eucharist" is called the cup of blessing- us blessing God and God blessing us... is it mutual and reciprocal. ischus |
