Words such as “PRAYER”
and “PRAYING” are describing our activity when we are calling upon GOD
(Psalms. 17:6). It is imperative to have a PRAYER LIFE. It is one
of the most powerful tools that we can use. PRAYER refers to the multifaceted communication
of Believers with the Lord God… calling upon the name of the Lord ( Gen. 4:26), crying unto the Lord (Ps. 3:4), lifting
up one's soul unto God (Ps.25:1), seeking the Lord (Is. 55:6), coming boldly unto the throne of grace (Heb. 4:16), and drawing
near to God. (Heb.10:22).
God desires our fellowship; by PRAYER we maintain our relationship with Him. It is a necessary link
to receiving God's blessing and power and the fulfillment of His promises. PRAYER
can only be effective if it is made according to the perfect will of God -- this is the confidence that we have in Him, that,
if we ask any thing according to His will, He hears us" ( 1 John 5:14).
Not only must we PRAY according to God's will, but we must be in God's will if we expect Him to hear and answer us. God will give
us the things we ask for only if we seek first His kingdom and His righteousness. (Matt 6:33).
Amen.
Many people feel that PRAYING is so time consuming and, therefore, choose to PRAY a simple
PRAYER like, " Mary had a little lamb".
Remember, you get out of PRAYER what you put into PRAYER. If you just take out a little more time and have an intimate
talk with Christ, you will be amazed at what He will say to you in the Spirit of PRAYER
and through His word.
It is
impossible to live this life of Christ without PRAYER.
AMEN!!! |
