God paid it himself in Jesus

Therefore, since we have been justified through faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ... — Romans 5:1

The cost of peace is always high. Our peace was purchased by Jesus' enormous sacrifice. God made sure the price for our rebellion was paid, but he didn't make us pay it because we could never have fulfilled our obligation. Instead, God paid it himself in Jesus.

Prayer

Oh, to be like Thee, oh, to be like Thee,

Blessed Redeemer, pure as thou art;

Come in Thy greatness, come in Thy fulness;

Stamp Thine own image deep on my heart

Questions in Prayer 

.  Should we pray for all saints? – Ephesians 6:18

And pray in the Spirit  on all occasions  with all kinds of prayers and requests.  With this in mind, be alert and always keep on praying  for all the Lord’s people.

. Should we pray for all things? – Philippians 4:6

Do not be anxious about anything,  but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God.

.  Does God ever answer prayer at once? – Isaiah 65:14

My servants will sing 

 out of the joy of their hearts,

 but you will cry out 

 from anguish of heart

 and wail in brokenness of spirit.

.  Does He ever after delay? – Luke 18:7

And will not God bring about justice for his chosen ones, who cry out  to him day and night? Will he keep putting them off?

Bible Tells Us  – 

. Always in His Care – Psalm 32:8

I will instruct  you and teach you  in the way you should go;

 I will counsel you with my loving eye on  you.
