Just A Groan Will Reach His Throne
Likewise the Spirit also helps in our weaknesses. For we do not know what we should pray for as we ought, but the Spirit Himself makes intercession for us with groanings which cannot be uttered. Romans 8:26
Once, when my father was hospitalised, I remember driving as fast as I could to the hospital to see him because his condition was rapidly deteriorating. I was just sobbing in my car on the way there. I couldn't pray. I didn't know what to pray. So I just cried and prayed in tongues, groaning in my spirit.
I believe that at that very low point, the Holy Spirit was helping me in my weaknesses — "For we do not know what we should pray for as we ought, but the Spirit Himself makes intercession for us with groanings which cannot be uttered."
The events that soon unfolded in the hospital convinced me that just a groan or sigh will reach the throne of our Abba Father.
I managed to reach the hospital just in time to clasp my father's hand before he was wheeled in for surgery. The surgeons came out of the operating theatre some time later to inform my mother that they had not needed to perform any surgery because surgery had apparently been done on him!
Surprised, my mother answered, "He has never been operated on. I am his wife. I should know." Not convinced, the surgeons told my father when he regained consciousness, "We opened you up and found that surgery had already been done. Whoever did it did a perfect work."
Equally surprised, my dad told them, "But I have never had surgery done on me."
"No, you have!" the surgeons insisted.
As my parents and the doctors continued arguing, I found myself thinking, "My goodness, I didn't even pray for a miracle on my way to the hospital. Yet, a miracle has just happened!"
We need to know that when the people of the world groan, nothing happens. But when we who are God's children groan as we pray in the Spirit, the Holy Spirit makes intercession for us with groanings which will reach the throne of our Abba Father, and cause Him to move powerfully on our behalf!
