Prayer

How often do we minimize the power of prayer and necessity of it! It is the very core of what keeps us tapped into our life source who in turn gives us His perspective through the "crazy's" of life. Giving us HIS Joy, HIS Peace, HIS strength, and the list goes on.

DO I THINK HE HEARS AND ANSWERS ME? The Lord interrupted my prayer one time a few months ago with this thought. The answer is well yes...of course! But do I really? My attitude in prayer has always been that He is sovereign, in control, and that ultimately His will will be done. While ALL this is true and there is comfort and peace in that this lead to prayerlessness! Subtly and over time, without even realizing it it lead to an attitude that my prayer isnt going to make a difference anyways because His will is going to be done regardless of my prayer. Wow! Isnt that a clever way the enemy can creep in and sabotage my prayer life? Well that's what he did in me...until now. The Lord has challenged me to get into the Word to see what He says about prayer and to study how the men and women in scripture prayed. Im excited to see what lessons are in store for me!

Heed the sound of my cry for help my King and my God, For to you I pray. In the morning I will order my prayer to you and EAGERLY WATCH! Psalm 5:3

Therefore let everyone who is Godly pray to you in a time when you can be found. Psalm 32:6

My people who are called by my name humble themselves and pray and SEEK my face and turn from their wicked ways then I will turn from heaven and will heal their land. 2 Chronicles 7:14
