Keep On Praying
“And pray in the Spirit on all occasions with all kinds of prayers and requests. With this in mind, be alert and always keep on praying for all the Lord’s people.” Ephesians 6:18
Your heavenly Father values you so much. He loves you and wants to talk to you. And with prayer, we all have equal access to God.
Prayer gives you the privilege of access to the Almightiness of God, and through prayer, God can make anything happen. He can heal, solve any problem, change your financial situation, open doors, cause everything that has happened in your past (whether it was right or wrong, whether you were right or wrong) to work together for good.
God has marvelous plans for his children and the way to access those plans is through prayer.
Expect God to move in your life when you pray. Connect to God and allow His power to flow in you in every situation.
God calls us to pray about everything, telling him exactly what we want. We pray the particulars of our problems.
What Jesus said to the blind man, he says to us: “what do you want Me to do for you?” Luke 18:41
One would think the answer would be obvious. When a blind man requests Jesus’ help, isn’t it apparent what he needs? Yet Jesus wanted to hear the man articulate his specific requests.
He wants the same from us. “Let your requests be made known to God.”
When the wedding party ran low on wine, Mary wasn’t content to just say generally, “Help us, Jesus.” Rather, she was specific: “They have no more wine.” John 2:3
The needy man in Jesus’ parable requested, “Friend, lend me three loaves.” Luke 11:5. Not just “Give me something to eat” or “Can you help me out?” He made a specific request.
Even Jesus in the Garden of Gethsemane prayed specifically, “Take this cup from Me.” Luke 22:42
You too, go ahead and speak with your father about that specific need in your life.
You have a signed blank cheque. Use it and be blessed.
