Prayer
Lynette Hagin’s message spoke to me this morning. In her message, she brought my attention back to prayer. As I read on, I realized that I am just one of those she mentioned.
She said too often, things aren’t accomplished in our life because we don’t ask! Some people only ask God for things when they get into trouble. Sound familiar? I am one of them.
I know I need to pray as much as I could and I do pray but still, sometimes, prayer became my last resort. I paused and think…why is it so? I realized many times, I tend to try to solve the problem myself. Be it at work or handling children, I tend to try this and that and….then finally; I knew I just had to pray about it. Finally had to pray about it? You see, prayer became my last resort when it odd to be the first. Even at this point of writing, I have to keep reminding myself about what God says about prayer.
Prayer is so important that God commanded us in His word to pray.
1) Praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit…(Eph 6.18)
2) Pray without ceasing (1 Thess 5:17)
3) I desire therefore that the men pray everywhere, lifting up holy hands, without wrath and doubting (1 Tim 2:8)
When God keep repeating His point, there is something really important that He is trying to put across to us. I truly believe that our God is all out to bless us. The bible says that the Holy Spirit will show us things to come (John 16:13), but how can God warn us something if we never talk to Him? If we spent more time in prayer, we would be able to pray on the offensive instead of having to pray on the defensive when problems arise. When we enter into a life of prayer, the Lord will show us things to come!
So, let’s make prayer a source of continual communication between God and us. Let’s pray without ceasing. Amen.
