FJWL_01:198
I smell all your prayers, big and small. I smell, I hear, and I answer, for each one is precious to Me. I know your needs even before you ask. But oftentimes others do not, so your positive declarations to Me in earnest prayer not only move My hand, but often stir others to action.
Not only does it serve to remind you that you cannot do without Me, but your declaration of prayers unto Me also brand you and label you. For when others hear you pray, they know that you belong to Me. I love you and I'm proud of you, and I want the world to know you belong to Me! I want the world to know and see and feel My power within you, that I am the One Who makes you strong! I want the world to see your utter dependence on Me in all things--so pray!
