In his great sovereignty and grace, God has chosen to give you the most mysterious and auspicious privilege of prayer. Use it!

John 15:16You did not choose me, but I chose you and appointed you that you should go and bear fruit and that your fruit should abide, so that whatever you ask the Father in my name, he may give it to you.

I was thinking about prayer the other day. To me, prayer is the most mysterious and auspicious privilege we have as Christians. How it is that my humble words can move the hand of Almighty Creator, I’ll never fully grasp, yet they can. I believe it has something to do with God’s love. God is love and God loves to commune with his beloved. This happens in prayer.

As I pondered prayer I imagined prayer was like the great aqueducts that the Roman constructed to bring water from lakes and reservoirs into their cities. Now, rain falls where it chooses, so the rain could provide drinking water for Roman cities by falling directly on the city. Yet, the Romans also built aqueducts to carefully channel water into the cities to provide a constant supply for their residents. Just the same, God in his sovereignty, can and does meet our needs and guide our steps by his own will and initiative, like rain falling on the Roman cities. However, in his love, he has opened the way for you and me to be canals of his power through personal deliberate prayer, like the Roman aqueducts supplying the cities of their empire with water.

The prayer of a righteous man is powerful, and in Christ, we are righteous. And no good thing will he withhold from those who walk uprightly. Our God will meet all our needs according to his rich resources in Jesus. He is faithful, and his love is enduring. He will never let you down; he is with you always. In his great sovereignty and grace, God has chosen to give you the most mysterious and auspicious privilege of prayer. Use it!

DON’T GIVE UP, LOOK UP & PRAY

Dear Lord, help me to build my prayer life to please you and glorify your name

“Dear Lord, thank you for the privilege of prayer. Thank you that, in your love, you have seen fit to give me the honour of being able to commune with you and move your hand through prayer. Thank you that my prayer is like a canal, bringing the sustenance of your touch to those around me. Help me to wisely pray. Help me to fill my mind with your Word so that I will always pray according to your will. Help me to be diligent in prayer and to walk in faith that you will answer every prayer I utter. Dear Lord, help me to build my prayer life to please you and glorify your name. Amen.”

GOD-TRACKING IS A LIFESTYLE OF PRAISE

GOD-TRACKING IS A LIFESTYLE OF PRAISE

Hebrews 13:15
Through him then let us continually offer up a sacrifice of praise to God, that is, the fruit of lips that acknowledge his name.

In the Bible we read that God actually indwells the praises of his people. That is to say, the presence of the holy God of all creation is evident when a Believer says, “Praise God!” The very sound of his words carries with it the presence of the Lord.

In his book, Prison to Praise, Merlin Carothers shares how praise is related to prayer. He says that when we praise God for a need met, instead of begging him to answer our prayers, we make a faith leap from simply hoping for an answer to the affirmative certainty of needs met. I believe this is true. You see, the God we serve is eternal. This means that he is not restrained by space and time, as we are. Our Lord is already at the point where our needs are met long before we arrive. Therefore, when we praise God for needs met we are proclaiming the reality of our already answered prayer.

So, dear GodTracker, let’s turn our prayer times into praise times. Let’s make a habit of speaking praises to God at every opportunity. Let’s use words like, praise the Lord, praise God, thank you Jesus and hallelujah as part of our everyday vocabulary. The more we speak out praises to God the more we will experience his presence in our lives. The more we speak out praises to God the more other people will see Jesus in our eyes. So, come into his presence with thanksgiving and live in his courts with praise. Remember, God inhabits the praises of his people.

DON’T GIVE UP, LOOK UP & PRAY

Lord, help me to live a lifestyle of worship and get into a habit of praise

“Praise your name, o Lord. I will give you all honour and praise that your name is due. May my whole life be a sacrifice of praise to you. Dear Lord, I present all the needs in my life to you with thanksgiving. I praise you for answering my prayers even before I see my needs met. Praise you for the problems in my life, because through them I shall see the power of God manifest. Lord, help me to live a lifestyle of worship and get into a habit of praise. Amen.”
