"Pray without ceasing."
1Thessalonians 5:17
Time For Prayer
Today's
scripture verse is but
three little
words ~ with powerful impact!
Maintaining
a prayerful life is most important
for the
children of God.
However,
various difficulties make a full prayer life
almost
impossible.
But thank
God the things which are impossible with us
are possible
with Him!
God's call
to prayer need not be a burden
nor a cause
of guilt.
He means for
it to be a joy.
Through
prayer, He can give us strength
for all we
do,
and bring
down His power to work through us
in the lives
of others.
There are
earnest Christians who have just enough
prayer to
maintain their spiritual position,
but not
enough to grow spiritually.
Seeking to
fight off temptation is a defensive attitude
rather than
an assertive one
which
reaches for higher attainment.
The
scriptural teaching to cry out day and night
in prayer
must, to some degree,
become our
experience
if we are to
be intercessors.
Let us
confess the sin that besets us and then
confront it
in the name of our Redeemer.
The same
light that shows us our sin and condemns us
for it will
show us the way out of it.
Now, as we
lift ourselves and others up to our
Heavenly
Father in prayer,
may we
always be mindful,
In our
communication with heaven,
we only get
as we give!
